Los Angeles: Student Publications

Student Publications were produced under the direction of the ASUCLA Communications Board, a body whose composition and title varied over the years. Starting July 1, 1964, the board consisted of 12 members: six undergraduates, including the editor of the Daily Bruin, the president of the Undergraduate Association, and four others appointed by the association; three members appointed by the Graduate Student Association; one faculty member; one representative of the administration; and the manager of publications of the Associated Students, serving ex officio. The communications board selected editors for the four publications, managed their financial resources, and directed publishing policies.

Daily Bruin
The newspaper was published Monday through Friday during the school year in tabloid editions of eight to 24 pages. In the fall of 1919, students published the Cub Californian once a week. Three years later, the paper was issued semi-weekly. In March, 1924, the Cub was renamed the California Grizzly, as the school mascot grew from cub to grizzly. The paper became a daily in 1925, and in October of the following year assumed the name of Daily Bruin.

Southern Campus
Volume one of the University yearbook was issued in 1920, covering the campus' first academic year, 1919-20. Its predecessor, the Exponent, was the yearbook for the Los Angeles State Normal School. Since 1920, Southern Campus was been published annually without interruption. In its first 41 years of publication, the yearbook won all-American recognition in national competition 30 times.

Westwind
The literary magazine was established in the spring of 1957 by interested members of Chi Delta Phi, national English honorary society. As a joint venture of Chi Delta Phi and the Associated Students, Westwind was issued semiannually. In 1963, the Associated Students assumed sole responsibility for its publication, issuing it three to four times each year. Contributions came primarily from students, although faculty members may also write for Westwind. The publication contained short stories, poems, articles, and essays. Some were illustrated.
