Campus Life

What’s a university campus without tradition? A pretty thin experience. Here’s a small tutorial on UC Irvine traditions that have evolved over 43 years.

Wendell Brase is already leaving his reduced-carbon footprint on the state: UC Irvine’s vice chancellor for administrative & business services has made his mark at UCI with green buildings, waste recycling, solar energy and more. And now, Katherine Lapp, executive vice president of the University of California, has asked Brase to chair the Climate Solutions Steering Group, which will focus on implementing carbon-neutral technology and solutions on UC campuses.

Like countless other universities around the world, UCI has its own distinctive legends and lore that have emerged to shed light on campus mysteries.
