  • Students: Wednesday, April 7, at 11 a.m.
  • Staff/Administrators: Tuesday, April 6, at noon
  • Faculty: Tuesday, April 6, at 3 p.m.

Please plan to attend if at all possible, as we are hoping for a wide range of input for the team. Watch The Daily Bruin for Zoom links to your designated meeting time.
