Dear [member_wildcard_31790],

As the largest college – with the broadest curriculum – at UC Davis, the College of Letters and Science opens doors for future leaders, accomplished scholars and engaged global citizens. The work done here improves lives and advances our understanding of the world:

We answer the call for new majors and programs for emerging areas of study like forensic chemistry and interdisciplinary junctures such as technocultural studies.

We support students, hire distinguished teachers, create new courses of study and bring distinguished historians, scientists and artists to our campus. Did you know that one of the 2010 MacArthur Fellows “Genius Grant” recipients is a member of the college faculty? (Click here to read more about the winner, Yiyun Li.)

We achieve academic and research success: 15 departments and programs are ranked in the top 30 for excellence, according to U.S. News and World Report. Top rankings reflect our commitment to quality teaching and help us to recruit the best and brightest faculty and students in their fields.


We’ve asked a student to call you soon to share first-hand how your support will make an impact. Please take a few moments to share your experiences and learn more about the College of Letters and Science.

When you speak with our student, please consider a contribution to our annual fund. Your gift will make a difference for students, faculty and researchers alike.

You can also make a gift online.

The College of Letters and Science is at the heart of a comprehensive UC Davis education, and for our university to be strong, its heart must also be strong. Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Winston Ko
Dean
Mathematical & Physical Sciences

George R. Mangun
