Although the UC Merced campus is entering its ninth academic year, the campus is still in a constant state of expansion.

The best way to explore what UC Merced has to offer is to visit the campus and see it firsthand.

Students who visit the UC Merced Students First Center (SFC) in the lobby of the Leo and Dottie Kolligian Library will see it’s different from other student services offices.

After two months on the job, UC Merced’s first full-time medical director has already entrenched himself in campus life and understanding student needs.

Dr. Brandon Boggs, a Merced native, has practiced emergency medicine for the past 10 years, including seven as medical director for an emergency department in Oakdale. Early in his career he worked as a family practitioner in private practice with a cardiologist and pulmonologist, and served as medical director of large nursing and rehabilitation center.

UC Merced is entering a significant new phase of construction, the likes of which the campus has not seen since before it opened in 2005.

Hundreds of UC Merced students are about to learn just how far they can stretch a drop of water.

MERCED - The University of California, Merced's Green Suite will open its doors to the public on Saturday, April 14, in conjunction with Bobcat Day. The first space of its kind in the Central Valley, the Green Suite is a showcase of environmentally friendly practices and products located in UC Merced student housing. The unoccupied three-room suite will be part of the standard UC Merced campus tours and will educate thousands of people every year on how to lead a "greener" lifestyle.
