About the Herbert A. Young Society
Creating Opportunities for Tomorrow's Leaders
The College of Letters and Science mission is to educate thoughtful, innovative, and capable leaders who are prepared to meet the challenges of tomorrow. Teaching a broad range of fundamental courses, the College of Letters and Science is called upon to offer all undergraduates the best education in humanities, arts and sciences.
You can make a significant impact. Strengthened by your generosity, we will continue to provide all UC Davis undergraduates with a challenging and rewarding education, offer graduate students the opportunity to engage in meaningful research, enlist the top faculty in the nation.

Young Society through an unrestricted gift of $1,000 or more, you will belong to an important group of alumni, parents, and friends who are committed to excellence in teaching and research. You will impact the students and faculty of the College of Letters and Science. You will extend the promise of a quality education and research to change lives.

- establishing scholarships
