MISSION

OUR VISION

 

UCLA endeavors to integrate education, research and service so that each enriches and extends the others.

As part of this mission, the English Department seeks to connect UCLA students and faculty with the larger Los Angeles community.

The UCLA English Department Marathon Reading annual event is, consequently, a celebration of literature and literacy not just at UCLA, but also in the community at large.
