- Access opportunities for hands-on learning
- Reconnect to UC Davis’ agricultural heritage
Opportunities
Jobs - Don't forget to tell these special people in your life just how special they are to you. No pressure. Just relax and watch it happen. It's so important to do something every day that will make you happy.
Internships - Let's do that again. Every time you practice, you learn more. Of course he's a happy little stone, cause we don't have any other kind. We wash our brush with odorless thinner. We'll put some happy little leaves here and there.
Volunteering - Let your heart take you to wherever you want to be. In your world you can create anything you desire. Just pretend you are a whisper floating across a mountain. Don't fiddle with it all day.
