UCLA News|Week: Civil War legacy


In this week's news digest: As we reach the 150th anniversary of the Civil War, Department of History professor Joan Waugh sheds light on the events and how they changed the United States.
 
"It made our constitution the protector and expander of rights for citizens," says Waugh.
 
And in brief: The UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music forges a groundbreaking partnership with jazz greats and the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz.
