Scholarship fund aims to bring more black students to UCLA
A private group led by several prominent UCLA alumni has raised $1.75 million to bankroll scholarships for black freshmen, hoping the additional financial aid will help increase African American enrollment at the campus.
We want to take finances out of the question for these students, to the extent we can, said Los Angeles businessman Peter J. Taylor, who heads the fundraising group, along with leaders of UCLAs Black Alumni Association.
The scholarships were being announced today, the Los Angeles Times reported.
