Mnookin of our older peers, so the investment by alumni and friends in our future truly matters. But the impact of UCLA Law goes far beyond these numbers. I see it in the outstanding qualities of the students whom we accept each year. I see it in the clinics that deliver pro bono services to clients and powerfully train students in the intangibles that go beyond the books. I see it in the alumni and friends who give back to the school by inter- viewing prospective students, networking with and men- toring current students, hiring recent graduates and joining us as lecturers and guest panelists. And, of course, it makes me incredibly proud to see the amazing professional accom- plishments of our alumni. Our graduates are not only accomplished, they are inspiring. So, for our cover story, we decided to highlight 70 pathbreaking alumni in honor of our 70 years. Choosing 70 out of the thousands was fun, illuminating, difficult and, UCLA SCHOOL OF LAW WELCOMED ITS FIRST frankly, even excruciating at times: Do we highlight those CLASS 70 YEARS AGO THIS FALL.

    NEWEST STAR TREK ATTRACTS THE NEW GENERATION June 9, 2009 by Samantha Filed under Entertainment Leave a Comment Lynn Cinema Reviews the 11th Star Trek Movie By MATT FISCHER Staff Writer Star Trek 2009 movie poster In 1966, a phenomenon named Star Trek broadcasted it’s first ground breaking episode on NBC. Forty three years later, the franchise is still going strong with the release of the 11th Star Trek movie (aptly titled Star Trek). The last movie, Star Trek: Nemesis, was released in 2002 and while alright, tanked at the box office and proceeded to close the book on the familiar Next Generation cast. Hollywood insisted that the next film be a reboot of the series as a whole (which meant whole new actors for Captain James T. Kirk and Spock.) J.J. Abrams (of LOST and Alias fame) signed on to direct the movie and here we are nine months later, watching a beautiful film. The film gives the audience an early biography on Kirk and then proceeds to Starfleet Academy. Kirk is assigned to the Enterprise under the guidance of Captain Christopher Pike and First Officer Spock. Everything is fine and dandy until a Romulan from the future, Nero, comes to the past to eliminate Kirk and Spock. He destroys Vulcan and takes Pike hostage. Leaving the Enterprise with Captain Spock and first Office Kirk in charge. (Of course they win they day, but to spoil that for the reading audience would incredibly mean of me!) The new actors portraying favorite characters slip pretty much seamlessly into their roles.

  • Eddie Murphy Reprises His Role As the Ever-Charming Prince Akeem and Leads an All-Star Cast for the Much-Anticipated Sequel, COMING 2 AMERICA
    COMING 2 AMERICA - An American Marvel! Eddie Murphy reprises his role as the ever-charming Prince Akeem and leads an all-star cast for the much-anticipated sequel, COMING 2 AMERICA. Three decades and three beautiful daughters later, Akeem prepares to take over the reigns of his homeland of Zamunda. As antiquated gender roles are being challenged within his home, he is also faced with a new dilemma on the outside. While tradition has always required a male heir to take the throne, Akeem feels torn between following custom and creating change. While considering his eldest daughter, Meeka, who is the strongest choice, his rival, General Izzi, is plotting a union of dynasties with his son, Idi, as Meeka’s groom. Meanwhile, an ailing King Joffer delivers the shocking news that Akeem has a long-lost son, Lavelle, in Queens. After an unexpected turn of events, Akeem, now the King of Zamunda, along with his trusted confidante, Semmi, return to New York to tend to this unfinished royal family business. Upon finding Lavelle, Akeem convinces him to travel to Zamunda in order to learn the customs of royal life in preparation for becoming the heir to the throne. While Akeem smooths tensions with his wife and three daughters, General Izzi decides that his daughter, Bopoto, will become Lavelle’s wife. All the while, Lavelle is falling in love with his royal barber, Mirembe, who has dreams of owning her own barbershop. Arsenio Hall returns as Semmi, alongside James Earl Jones as King Jaffe Joffer, Shari Headley as Lisa, John Amos as Cleo McDowell, Louie Anderson as Maurice and the legendary barbershop crew who sparked the laughs in 1988 for COMING TO AMERICA.
