Well, its not a life-changing thing if you missed it. But it brings up a good lesson, count yourself fortunate if you learned it before school started. At a big school like ucla you need to look out for yourself; they aren't going to make sure you attend something. You need to read thru all those emails they send you, read thru the info they post on websites, make lists of important things, etc. I know its frustrating to miss this, but if in the end it makes you more attuned it is a net positive.
