Expanding Access Through Public Research

Diane Bryant came to UC Davis after starting her education at a local community college. She credits the university with making a clear commitment to supporting transfer students, many of whom come from historically underrepresented communities and are the first in their families to attend a university.

She points to UC Davis programs that intentionally create pathways from community colleges as an example of how public investment delivers long-term value. By expanding access to education and research-driven learning, UC Davis helps change individual lives while strengthening communities across California.

"UC Davis is making a lifelong, tremendous impact on our community.” – Diane M. Bryant
