Bruins have every reason to boast

About Us

Bruins, as a rule, are a humble bunch, not prone to ostentatious displays

of school pride – even though Bruins have every reason to boast. Here

are just a few:

UCLA was the first school in the nation to win 100 NCAA Team Championships and has won a total 104 championships.
UCLA holds a record 11 NCAA Basketball Championships, 10 of which were won under legendary coach John Wooden.
Rated #1 by Sports Illustrated for its balance in academics, athletics, and social life.
UCLA Dance Team is rated the nation’s hottest college spirit squad by Playboy.
UCLA receives more freshman applications than any other U.S. university and the average weighted GPA of the incoming class is 4.25.
UCLA is bordered by the three B’s: Brentwood, Bel-Air and Beverly Hills – and minutes away from Santa Monica and Malibu beaches.
The Rose Bowl – one of the world's most beautiful and famous stadiums is home to Bruin football.
Westwood!

What other university in Los Angeles (or the world) can compare?

Bruins on the Hill is an organization created by a group of UCLA alumni in Palos Verdes for other UCLA alums on the Peninsula who want to reconnect with the University's academic and athletic achievements. It's a group dedicated to rediscovering old friendships and making new ones with others who share a common bond. In the process, Bruins on the Hill have a lot of fun -- and help support UCLA's tradition of excellence through sponsored social events.
