UCLA already admitted this. They paid 6 million dollars in settlement money

From the article:

UCLA REJECTS ALLEGATIONS

Edit: The settlement is from last year, and no wrongdoing was admitted. If that alone means they're always guilty, then we should also say any accusation against Trump is accurate too.

The article has less value than the court case where they admitted many of these issues and don't dispute them.

court case where they admitted

That never happened. The settlement excluded any admission. Paying money to end a more costly legal process is common and doesn't automatically prove guilt on its own.

Regardless, this is it's own case, and bringing up an old one isn't good enough to win.
