Associated Students UCLA, as a responsive student-centered
organization, provides innovative and excellent services, programs, products, and facilities for the entire UCLA community. ASUCLA was created when the campus first opened in 1919. Even in the early years, ASUCLA meant student government, student publications, and student services such as a bookstore and cafeteria. Today, ASUCLA has evolved into a four-part organization. These four entities collectively make up the largest student association in the country. The four entities are:
- Undergraduate Students Association – elected representatives of the undergraduate student body.
- Graduate Students Association – elected representatives of the graduate student body.
- Student Media – this includes the Daily Bruin, UCLARadio.com, the Bruin Life Yearbook, and seven different magazines.
- Services & Enterprises – this division is designed to meet the everyday needs of students and the campus community. Major divisions include Student Union, Event Services, UCLA Restaurants, UCLA Store, UCLA Photography, and Trademarks & Licensing.
