Strike organizers and student leaders from MOs + DSU currently in meeting with Vice Chancellor Monroe Gordon. He's mostly responding to leaders with empty promises of advocacy and claims that he doesn't have power to do anything. #StrikeForOurSafety@UCLA@UCLAPresident
I dropped into UCLA this morning in support of students who are fighting for hybrid instruction options for disabled and immunocompromised students. Many in the school's administration have been granted this option. The students should have it as well. This pandemic isn't over!
While @UCLA returned to in-person classes this week, some students are on strike to support @dsuucla push for a permanent hybrid learning option. "This is a matter of accessibility"

We just heard testimony from a non-disabled international student in support of our cause. Revoking remote learning means they cannot see their family, including an immunocompromised family member. Remote access is for EVERYONE. #UCLAbleist@UCLA
Around 175 students gathered on campus and via livestream on Friday to protest UCLA's failure to address the Disabled Student Union's petition. The petition urged UCLA administrators to provide more accommodations for students with disabilities. https://t.co/gma11uZyx7
In Strong Solidarity w/ the @dsuucla as they fight for an accessible campus, & attempt to get the University to acknowledge + increase staffing/support.
Did you know that @UCLA only has 1 disability specialist for every 700 students? They also do not have an ADA Compliance Officer. How is that acceptable? #UCLAbleist#WhyDisabledStudentsDropOut
two sidewalks at @ucla randomly blocked off, in which a person in a wheelchair would need to turn around, enter the street, and then cross the street to get to the other side of the sidewalk. On the right picture, the gate was blocking/protecting nothing.
Westwood is the most expensive rental market in the state of California. 1 in 20 UCLA students are affected by homelessness.
We need to use all tools at our disposal to address student housing insecurity and Safe Parking can help many students experiencing homelessness.
Hey Bruins! Did you know that there are now free Covid Test Vending Machines all over campus! You can receive two tests per week using your Bruin Card, it’s that easy! For more information, check the link below! https://t.co/QmLXogLbr2
