Go Bruins!
After a day of studying, you can cheer on the UCLA Bruins at one of many athletic events.
UCLA leads the U.S. in National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) awards, so the UCLA motto is not surprising, “UCLA: Champions Made Here!”

Libraries
The UCLA Library, with more than twelve million print and electronic volumes, ranks among the top three university research libraries in North America. You can read books and magazines or study there without an ID card or a library card. To take books home, you need a library card, which you can get for $28 at the front desk of the Research or College (Powell) Library.
The Westwood branch of the Los Angeles Public Library provides free access to computer workstations with reservations; you can get a free library card with two forms of identification or a California driver's license.
Religious Services/Houses of Worship
The Los Angeles community is diverse, with places of worship for persons of nearly all faiths. UCLA student groups also represent many of the major faiths. The University Religious Conference at UCLA can help you contact religious groups on campus.
