UCLA Won't Punish Student for Anti-Asian Video Rant
Update: UCLA said it won't take disciplinary action against the student who created the anti-Asian YouTube video that went viral.

Update to the Update: And, Wallace said in an apology letter released to the Daily Bruin that she will no longer attend classes at UCLA.
