To help celebrate the UC Davis Centennial, Sacramento public television station KVIE created a half-hour documentary on our history.
In UC Davis at 100, KVIE takes viewers back in time to see the highlights and accomplishments of a school that has contributed not only to the region, but the world.
In promoting the video, KVIE told viewers: “From a small farm school with a humble beginning to a world-class institution, we’ll show you why so many people are full of Aggie pride.”
Narrated by KVIE’s Rob Stewart, the short documentary, which premiered on Oct. 14, 2009, offers a broad view of UC Davis and its contributions through history. KVIE and UC Davis owe thanks to two prominent area families for their financial support for the project: the David Hosley family (Hosley was president and general manager of KVIE Public Television for 10 years) and Tom and Meg Stallard of Woodland. Hosley and Meg Stallard are both members of the UC Davis Foundation Board of Trustees.
