UCLA is a public school that reflects the community in which it thrives and gives opportunity to those who demonstrate ability but perhaps haven't had access to the same opportunities as the more fortunate. Many people just hate public education in general and wish such a world leading public institution as UCLA didn't exist at all. Those who are against making affirmative efforts to tap talent that would otherwise not get the chance generally fall into this group. Which of course makes it awkward having them in the UCLA community.
