Angry Asian Man with the Asian Pacific Americans for Progress named UCLA one of the Top Ten Best Colleges and Universities for AAPI students. UCLA’s long list of notable AAPI alumni, including Congresswoman Judy Chu, Kal Penn (actor and associate director of the White House Office of Public Liaison), and George Takei, actor and LGBT rights activist,  and long history of AAPI activism through the Asian American studies department, student organizations, and campaigns are just some of the highlights Angry Asian Man mentions in his profile of the Bruins.

Festivities!
