Davis, though mainly an agricultural unit, recently added a College of Letters and Science. The Santa Barbara campus recently moved to a spacious new 408 - acre site. The Riverside campus expansion program is also well underway. The new cafeteria, once a horse barn, is now a picturesque and attractively furnished building.
