UCLA students discuss how often they go to ASUCLA stores and why.
Vasily Rozenbaum
Fourth-year, neuroscience
“About two to three times a quarter. I usually buy school supplies or outer-gear, but sometimes I go into Westwood for that.”
Eliot Bessette
Graduate student, cinema and media studies
“Very infrequently. I can get books at other bookstores, and I already have all the UCLA gear I need.”
Kaiya Gales
First-year, world arts and cultures
“I go there maybe twice a month, maybe a little more. I buy sweatshirts a lot of the time, or sweatpants. And school supplies. It’s a little expensive, but what can you do?”
Hank Lin
First-year, electrical engineering
“Once every week, mainly to buy snacks. I go there for convenience, but I wish they could sell the energy drinks at a less expensive price.”
Liz Francis
Fourth-year, psychology
“I work in Ackerman, so I walk through it all the time. About once a month, I buy school supplies and food. I only go there because it’s so close, but it’s kind of expensive.”
Rachael Cameron
Fourth-year, global studies
“Maybe once every few weeks. It’s usually just for bluebooks or school supplies or a snack, or something computer supplies-y.”
