An estimated 3,000 visitors — and their cars — are coming to UC Davis on Friday, May 11, for the second of two Decision UC Davis events, this one for prospective transfer students.
The influx will put pressure on parking — and campus officials are advising faculty and staff to be prepared. “We realize there may be some inconvenience, and we appreciate your understanding and support for this important campuswide endeavor,” said Fred Wood, vice chancellor of Student Affairs.
