I am a ucla alumna... actually, I was a student-athlete. I am horrified by the conditions of the SAC, North Pool, and the pool at Sunset Rec. It's amazing how standards can decline in less than 7 years.
I enrolled by step-son into the Bruin Swim Club, I would sing UCLA's praises and was SO excited to have him apart of my alma mater. The facilities are disgusting, they are infested with cockroaches-- not just on one occasion... almost EVERY TIME my step son goes into a locker room he reports cockroaches. The fact that he used to freak out and refuse to go in there and now just casually reports it demonstrates how infested it is.
Monday, he informed me there was another one (I at first was like whatever, toughen up)... then he told me one time one of the boys stepped on the nonslip rug and A FAMILY OF ROACHES squirmed out... oh it gets worse-- one of them RAN ONTO THE KID!!
When you inform the staff, they act like it's a normal occurrence and just call the exterminator... uh this should not be routine.
I truly wish I could share photos, but they do not allow adults on the pool deck (probably so we don't see the disgusting conditions). I'm sure their report log will show multiple exterminator reports.
Today, I decided to look into cockroaches, WHO defines them as "unhygienic scavengers in human settlements.". They are a health hazard and ucla is in violation of CA Health Code.
I will be reporting them for their unsanitary and hazardous conditions.
