udents have entered UCLA. One-third of baccalaureate degrees are awarded to students who entered UCLA as transfer students. One of the major debates is over the decreased admission of African-Americans and Latinos, especially since the passage of Proposition 209, prohibiting racial, sexual, or ethnic discrimination at public institutions, in 1996.[90] In response to this issue, UCLA decided to shift to a more holistic admissions process starting Fall 2007.[91]
Preliminary, admitted freshman applicants for Fall 2013 had an average weighted GPA of 4.40 (3.88 unweighted), an average combined SAT score of 2037 (667 for Critical Reading, 690 for Mathematics, and 680 for Writing) and an average ACT Composite score of 30.[92]

According to the American Dental Education Association (ADEA) Guide to Dental Schools, 44th Ed., the UCLA School of Dentistry had more than 1,465 applicants for 88 seats in the entering class of 2006. The average Dental Admissions Test (DAT) scores for admitted students in the entering class of 2012 were 22 on the academic portion and 21 on the perceptual aptitude portion.[94] In 1949 the Regents of the University of California authorized the School of Nursing as one of the professional schools of the UCLA Center for the Health Sciences. The Graduate School of Nursing is ranked by U.S. News and World Report as one of the top graduate nursing schools in the country, and currently has an acceptance rate of 3.9%. The school offers professional degrees in Nurse Practitioner, Clinical Nurse Specialist, and Ph.D. in Nursing.
Crime[edit]

In 2012, UCLA was rated the most dangerous college campus in the US by Business Insider with 921 property crimes, and 49 violent crimes (recorded in the year 2011).[95] UCLA's director of media relations issued a response to this rank stating crime reports are taken both on and off campus, including the multiple Los Angeles County locations of UCLA medical centers and clinics, suggesting data might be inflated.[96] Other media outlets, such as the Los Angeles Times,[97] LAist,[98] and LA Weekly[99] disputed the ranking.
Economic impact[edit]

The University has a significant impact in the Los Angeles economy. It is the fourth largest employer in the county (after Los Angeles County, the Los Angeles Unified School District and the federal government) and the seventh largest in the region.[100][101]
Trademarks and licensing[edit]
The UCLA trademark "is the exclusive property of the Regents of the University of California.",[102] but it is managed, protected, and licensed through UCLA Trademarks and Licensing, a division of the Associated Students UCLA.[103][104] As such, the ASUCLA also has a share in the profits.
Due to UCLA's academic and athletic prestige, as well as the name being associated with popular images of Southern California lifestyle, apparel with UCLA logos and insignia sells not just in the United States, but as an overseas clothing and accessories brand. High demand for UCLA apparel has inspired the licensing of its trademark to UCLA brand stores throughout Europe, Middle East and Asia. Since 1980, 15 UCLA stores have opened in South Korea, and 49 are currently open in China. The newest store

UCLA's library system has over eight million books and 70,000 serials spread over twelve libraries and eleven other archives, reading rooms, and research centers. It is the nation's 14th largest library in number of volumes.[74]
The first library, University Library (presently Powell Library), was founded in 1884. In 1910, Elizabeth Fargo became the university's first librarian. Lawrence Powell became librarian in 1944, and began a series of system overhauls and modifications, and in 1959, he was named Dean of the School of Library Service.[75] More libraries were added as previous ones filled. Page Ackerman became University Librarian in 1973, and was the nation's first female librarian of a system as large as UCLA's. She oversaw the first coordinations between other UC schools, and formed a new administrative network that is still in use today.[76] Since her retirement, the system has seen steady growth and improvement under various Librarians. The present University Librarian is Virginia Steel, who took office on July 15, 2013.[77]
