So you may have heard a lot about 嘿嘿视频 academics and rankings, but you may be wondering what it is like to be on our 嘿嘿视频 campus. For those of you who, unfortunately, cannot visit the wonderful 嘿嘿视频 campus, I invite you to join me on seven small adventures and discover what the 嘿嘿视频 campus is like on a day-to-day basis. I am pleased to be your travel guide for this blog today. My name is Danielle, and I鈥檓 a 2nd-year Managerial Economics major from San Francisco and Social Media Intern for 嘿嘿视频. Now, let鈥檚 see what 嘿嘿视频 has to offer.
Go on a virtual campus tour from the comfort of your home
We can embark on the official 嘿嘿视频 grand virtual campus tour filled with highlights of our 5,300-acre campus and providing you with campus-related information.
Coming from a city of skyscrapers, moving to Davis was definitely a change in scenery for me. I went from a concrete-filled city with towering buildings to a charming University town where buildings are only a few stories tall and bicycles rule the road. Davis is welcoming, spirited, supportive, diverse, and sustainable. So if you are looking for that classic college campus feel, then 嘿嘿视频 is definitely for you.
My favorite place on campus is the , the hub of student life. Want some sushi? MU. Need a place to study? MU. Hungry for some free food? Go to the Food Pantry inside the MU, no matter who you are. Want to go bowling or play video games? Check out in the MU. These are just some of the great reasons I enjoy the MU.
Campus housing
- Three on-campus housing locations: Tercero, Segundo, and Cuarto
- On-campus transfer housing is also available
Campus dining
Say what you will about academics, but you'd be hard-pressed to find many universities with fine dining to add to its list of accomplishments. But here at 嘿嘿视频, the campus dining and markets are just as diverse and creative as the classes.
Explore the local businesses in the area
From big-name businesses like Target and Safeway to charming local shops and restaurants, we have it all in Davis. Not to mention, many of these places are college student-friendly: hiring students, housing student organization fundraisers, providing study spaces, and offering student discounts.

Davis is also known for the local farmers market that comes around twice a week where students and locals will seek out the local goods that vendors have to offer.
Weather report: Cloudy with a chance of cows?
The reason Davis is sometimes dubbed a 鈥渃owtown鈥 is due to the fact that we have cows ON campus. Don鈥檛 worry, they鈥檙e not roaming around the streets or raining from the sky.
Speaking of rain, the annual precipitation is 18 percent with an average of 21 inches of rainfall. The rest of the year is sunny and warm in the summer. When fall arrives, the temperatures begin cooling down to around 80 degrees. Winter temperatures average around 50 to 60 degrees.
