You’re Invited!

As part of the only cross-campus leadership annual giving program at UCLA, Chancellor’s Society donors like you are invited to save the date to attend our exclusive Chancellor’s Society Weekend at Lake Arrowhead Lodge*. Every year, this dedicated community gathers in picturesque Lake Arrowhead to relax and reconnect with one another and UCLA, with a special faculty presentation about the innovative work being done on our campus. This year’s featured speaker is UCLA Professor of Geography, A. Park Williams, speaking on how the Earth’s changing climate affects water availability for plants, animals, and humans.

This all-inclusive three-day getaway boasts stunning Lake Arrowhead views, charming chalet-style accommodations, gourmet meals, and a wealth of activities for all ages.
