Dear readers,
This is it – our final issue of the year.
Austin Yu
/ Daily Bruin
These past nine months have been a roller coaster of emotions, from periods of intense stress during the peak of prime's production cycle to the deceptive calm after each issue hit newsstands. Like everyone else at the Daily Bruin, we're students too. School, jobs and extracurricular activities got in the way more times than we would have liked, but in the end, we all worked through it.
This quarter, we wanted to finish our term as editors on a strong note. Flip through prime's pages, and you'll find a close encounter with the Syrian refugee crisis as well as deeply personal stories about experiencing grief and depression. We explore technology in two ways: through the gender gap in computer science and an under-the-radar lab with a different approach to artificial intelligence. We also touch on the controversial history of one culture's "comfort women" and a student group's attempt to address it. Finally, we show you the best of Culver City as well as how to make Ukrainian Easter eggs and strawberries-and-cream scones with a hint of home.
Thank you for coming on this journey with us. We hope you'll continue to carry these stories with you during your time at UCLA and beyond.
With love,
