With
the integration of student life and academics on The Hill, living
on campus today is a far cry from what most might remember from
their college days

"Residence
halls, in addition to providing housing, shall serve as educational
and social adjuncts to the campus."
— Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy,
UCLA Long-Range Development Plan, December 1963

CLOUDS garnish clear, blue, rain-washed skies on this perfect
September day. It is the first Monday of the first week of the Fall
Quarter, and the northwest corner of campus teems with backpack-toting
students making their morning trek to class. Arriving on foot from
every direction — from the residence halls, from across Gayley
and up Strathmore avenues, from apartments and fraternity houses
— they funnel onto Bruin Walk, the primary walkway to campus.
The sounds of their voices and laughter mix with the buzz of cars
and construction work at the new UCLA hospital rising just to the
south, contributing to a dynamic urban vibe in what might otherwise
be a tranquil community setting.
