UCSC’s Early Days: The Creation of an Uncommon Campus

With more than 50 years of hindsight, Campus Architect Emeritus Frank Zwart and founding faculty member Bill Domhoff will discuss the ideas and the decisions that created UC Santa Cruz. Frank will present the visionary goals of an ambitious planning effort leading up to our arrival at Cowell College in September 1967, and Bill will describe those aspirations from the perspective of a young professor.  Enjoy enhanced materials of

Frank’s slides while listening to music from back in the day.

Cowell Art!

The early days of UCSC and Cowell College brought together a remarkable collection of artists and art historians who together provided a spectacular beginning to the university’s art scene.

Join a lively conversation between Jock Reynolds (Stevenson 69'), Holly Downing (Cowell 71'), and Keith Christiansen (Cowell 69') as they talk about this exciting time, the wonderful eccentrics who created the excitement and how the experience helped students launch careers as artists. Moderated by George Kraw.
