I reflect on the start of the winter quarter and the new opportunities opening up across UC Davis, from expanded hands-on learning and internships to global study and research experiences. I highlight our role as an engine of opportunity and community support, pointing to growing enrollment, new academic initiatives, and the strength that comes from collaboration and resilience as our students work to address local and global challenges.
I’m grateful for how UC Davis research partnerships turn discovery into service around the world, from leading a delegation in Kenya to working with communities on climate, health, and food security. Our students and scholars collaborate globally to address shared challenges, translating knowledge into action that benefits people and communities everywhere, whether at home or abroad.
