Of Dads and Grads

As we prepare to celebrate Father’s Day on June 16, here are a few pieces of my dad’s wisdom that I keep close:

A Month to Reflect on Mental Health Matters

You’re likely to see people wearing green ribbons as the next few weeks move along. That’s because May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness and help break the stigmas about one of society’s most pressing issues.

A Pep Rally That Drops Knowledge About College

I love the laboratories and lecture halls of higher education, but sometimes nothing beats the energy of a multi-purpose room or gym that’s packed with young minds.

Back on Track to Collaboration and Building Community

With the door of partnership swung wide open, it’s much easier to see a bright future among UC Davis, the city of Davis and Yolo County.

New Year, New Recognition

Happy New Year! I’ve been reflecting on the milestones UC Davis reached during 2018...One of the things I’m most excited about is our university becoming a federally designated Hispanic Serving Institution.

Closing Campus and Opening Our Hearts

The smoky days of mid-November were unlike anything UC Davis had experienced.

Celebrating Our ‘Aggie Heroes’

You become an Aggie Hero through your everyday actions and words.

Coming Attractions for 2018-19

With the new academic year well underway, I wake up every morning anxious to take on the new day.

To the Top of the Charts

Just like the classic TV theme to “The Jeffersons” says, “We’re moving on up!”

Looking Back on a Year of Hospitality and Heat Waves

What I’ve learned in my first year is that Davis residents care deeply about their community and want to see UC Davis and its chancellor be successful.
