????? Our Social Impact Panel, hosted by our ACM Impact initiative and LA Blueprint, featured 4 incredible speakers and gathered over 50 UCLA students to explore how technical skills and passions can contribute to a career that makes a difference! ?? A huge thank you to our inspiring panelists: ? jeff nguyen: Founder of BobaTalks & University Recruiter at Amazon ?Gloria Wang: Senior Software Engineer at Adobe & Affiliated Contributing Scholar at the Center for Law, Tech, and Social Good at the University of San Francisco ? Hana Murayama, Freelance Graphic/UX Designer ? Rikako Yamada, Marketing Lead at Zapshot From designing with accessibility in mind to creating mentorship opportunities for underserved students, our panel sparked meaningful conversations about how students and young professionals can use technology to drive social change—what that entails and how it might unfold. ?? The key takeaway? Making a positive impact with technology isn’t one-size-fits-all. There are countless, and often overlooked, ways to contribute. Even if your role isn’t explicitly tied to social good, you can contribute by building community within your organization, using your free time to volunteer for mission-driven projects, and advocating for ethical technology practices—even if it’s just a little bit every day. This panel wouldn’t have happened without Angela Ling and Anne Do, who took this idea and turned it into something real. Huge appreciation for their vision and effort, and to Angela Hao, Jeff Lu, Youssef Mehelba, Aamani Maddukuri, Caroline DebBaruah, Jiyeon Han, and Rohan Adwankar for all their support in making it happen! Shoutout to the UCLA Connection Lab for the beautiful venue and allowing our attendees to enjoy their free boba ?? We look forward to hosting more events that help students discover how they can contribute to the tech for good movement ???

I got to meet with this wonderful man yesterday. There’s not even words to describe my feelings about it. This is Dr. Leonard Kleinrock — his queuing theory and work on packet switching — laid the groundwork for the Internet. Behind us is the IMP — node #1 on the Internet. Here in this very room — on that machine — is where the very first message was ever sent on the Internet — from Dr. Kleinrock’s lab — to SRI. The message? “LO” — the first two letters of “Login” before it crashed. Not on his end — but on the SRI computer, which wasn’t expecting more than two characters. That message inspired Werner Hertzog’s film, Lo and Behold — which Leonard is in. Without Dr. Kleinrock’s creativity and vision — we wouldn’t be where we are today with the Internet. He said as a graduate student at MIT — he wanted to work on something that would have a big impact. Well, he did. He — and a handful of other folks — changed the world. That IMP #1 behind us will be in the Smithsonian one day. And parts of our conversation will appear in my next book — as we look to the future of our connected world. Dr. Kleinrock is a national treasure. So grateful to spend the afternoon with him discussing his work, his thoughts — and seeing where the Internet was born. It was a real honor.

Happy Birthday, Internet! A message from one of the Internet pioneers, Prof. Leonard Kleinrock. Today, Oct. 29, 2024, it will be 55 years since Prof. Kleinrock supervised the transmission of the first message over the ARPANET from UCLA to SRI, ushering in the dawn of the Internet. Prof. Kleinrock is best-known for having created a mathematical theory of computer networks in the early 1960s, which played an influential role in the development of the ARPANET and its application to what we now call the Internet. #55 #birthday #internet

Fifty-five years ago next Tuesday, UCLA students led by Distinguished Professor Leonard Kleinrock successfully sent the first message over the ARPANET. Join us on 10/29 for Prof. Kleinrock's lecture on the early history that led us to the internet, and insights into its future. https://lnkd.in/gtpscWvE

This week, Prof. Leonard Kleinrock welcomed UCLA Communications professor Tim Groeling's Comms 151 class for a tour of 3420 Boelter, the birthplace of the Internet. The students are researching how computer technology, particularly the Internet, has influenced patterns of human communication. The course includes the history and distinctiveness of computer-mediated communication's (CMC) influence on modern economic, political, and social interaction. Go Bruins! ?? ?? #internet #history #innovation #communication #ucla Photo credit: T. Groeling

Thank you for visiting us, Secretary Bunch! What an amazing opportunity to share internet history with the Smithsonian.
From the desk of Smithsonian Secretary Lonnie Bunch III: A landmark in early Internet history, this is the UCLA Connection Lab's Interface Message Processor, the Internet's first router. It famously sent the message "lo" (the system crashed before the word "login" was completed) over the Internet to Stanford Research Institute on Oct. 29, 1969. Many thanks to Professor Leonard Kleinrock and everyone at the University of California, Los Angeles, for welcoming me to speak at the Luskin Lecture. It was a pleasure to learn about the foundations of our digital age, engage with Bruin students, and share about the Smithsonian's goal to reach every home and classroom.
