Late free throws from Malcolm Lee help men’s basketball to victory

In a season full of tightrope walks and close calls, perhaps the conclusion was fitting. UCLA survived a scare and escaped with a 58-54 overtime victory over host Washington State on Saturday in the regular season finale. Sophomore forward Reeves Nelson scored 23 points on 10-of-13 shooting from the field, and junior guard Malcolm Lee made six clutch free throws down the stretch to lead a late surge.

Rowing opens season with wins against Loyola Marymount and Long Beach Rowing Association

Coming off a year in which it earned a team spot at NCAA Championships for the very first time, the UCLA rowing team kicked off its 2011 season with four victories in four races.

Academic student workers and graduate student researchers represented by the United Auto Workers union recently ended a nearly six-week strike in which they called for better working conditions and equitable wages. The contract stipulates pay increases for all workers – for some, pay increases of up to 80% – as well as anti-harassment policies and increased childcare support. However, the negotiations have struck controversy among some UAW members dissatisfied with the results of the contract. What are your thoughts on this issue?
