Tim Robbins, distinguished alumnus

The UCLA Alumni Association has selected anti-warrior Tim Robbins to receive their "Edward A. Dickson Alumnus of the Year: This award has been bestowed annually since 1946 upon a distinguished son or daughter of UCLA in recognition of exceptional merit."


In the words of Regent Dickson, the recipient is to be an individual who has rendered "a special and outstanding service to UCLA; or who, by personal achievement, has brought great honor and distinction to the University."

That certainly describes Tim.

The awards will be presented on Saturday, May 17, at 6:30 p.m. at the UCLA Hammer Museum. Linda Alvarez will be presenting the award. It says she graduated in '63, which I find surprising. Even if that's not a typo, I'd like to give her an "award."
