I'm Royce Dieckmann, a graduate student in the English Department. As an undergraduate, I transferred from a community college to UCLA where I earned my B.A. in English. I couldn't stay away, and have since earned my M.A. in English and am currently working on my dissertation on the long road to the Ph.D.

As an undergraduate, I wanted to do it all: English, History, Art, Music; I struggled a bit to find my focus, and I understand very well how difficult choosing a major can be and would love to help you find you discover your passion. Having been a transfer student, I also understand the particular difficulties of acclimatizing to the university and planning the major program, and can help you negotiate the particular challenges you face.

Aside from my passion for books, I love going to see bands play live, and I can often be found throughout the year rooting for the Bruins at football, basketball, and soccer games.

Feel free to come and see me!
