A new UCLA study shows that in Altadena, Black, Latino and AAPI homeowners are struggling more than others to rebuild. (UCLA's Gabriella Carmona was interviewed.)

"It's possible this might be all that we see. Phase one was, as many have described it, low-hanging fruit. It was not a commitment beyond the exchange that we saw; the release of the remaining hostages and the deceased hostages held by Hamas, in return for over a thousand Palestinian prisoners," said UCLA's Benjamin Radd.

But David Myers, a UCLA professor of Jewish history, said student protesters appear to have helped change American views on Palestinians and Israel. "Is the protest movement a failure? Well, if the measure is universities have cracked down, maybe," Myers said. "But if the measure is general trend lines in American public opinion, I'm not so sure. And that should be a wake-up call to the pro-Israel movement." (UCLA's Graeme Blair and UCLA students Dylan Kupsh, Sophia Toubian and Gal Cohavy were also quoted. Myers was also featured by Spectrum News 1.)

Even with a plausible claim, lifting a group's tax-exempt status is no simple matter. It "requires a long process, with appeal rights within the IRS and to any of several courts ... after exhaustion of administrative remedies," says Ellen Aprill, Scholar in Residence at UCLA School of Law.

"We think of brain tumors in two categories. Ones that are primary brain tumors are ones that develop from the brain itself. These are typically called gliomas, because they come from the glial cells of the brain, which are the structural support, the glue that holds the brain together," said UCLA's Dr. Richard Everson.

"There is a lot of hope that AI will make care better, but very few rigorous trials have actually evaluated its real-world effects," says Dr. Joann Elmore, professor of medicine at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and of health policy and management at the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health. "This is our opportunity to generate trustworthy evidence, with the patient perspective front and center." (UCLA's Dr. Hannah Milch was also quoted.)

Geoffrey Symcox, a professor emeritus of history at UCLA, said that Spain would have likely lost to its Iberian neighbor. "If Spain didn't try again, the voyage would have been sponsored by Portugal," Symcox told Live Science in an email. He noted that Portugal had been sailing down the coast of Africa since the early 15th century and that the Portuguese had ventured far enough into the Atlantic to colonize the Azores and Madeira.

Gary Orfield, a law and education professor and co-founder of the Civil Rights Project/Proyecto Derechos Civiles at UCLA, agreed the legislation was carefully written in a way that could have withstood legal challenges. He pointed out that California allows university programs that support Native American students because they were narrowly tailored to focus on tribal affiliation -- which is considered a political classification -- instead of race or ethnicity.
