Remote Classes and Work at the West LA Campus – Monday, June 24, 2024

Posted on

Late this evening, the Los Angeles Police Department alerted the University of a possible threat to the West Los Angeles campus, which was reported to the department through an anonymous phone call. The caller reported seeing a social media post, which included a potential threat of violence. At this time, neither the University nor law enforcement have been able to verify the existence of this post. However, out of an abundance of caution, while the University works with law enforcement to investigate the credibility of this reported threat, on Monday, June 24, 2024, all West LA classes will be held remotely and all West LA employees should work remotely.

The University will provide additional information as the investigation proceeds.
