UCLA Issues Statement from Chancellor Block

A few minutes ago, I received the following email from the UCLA Athletic Department. I expect that many of you may have received the same email. It is reprinted here in its entirety.

To the Campus Community:

Earlier today, I was shocked and angered to learn that dozens of individuals have been charged by the U.S. Department of Justice with paying or accepting bribes in exchange for admission to several top American universities, including UCLA.

UCLA’s men’s soccer head coach, Jorge Salcedo, was named in the indictment and immediately placed on leave pending a review by the university.
