A summer job can be hard to come by in general, but a summer job working with kids in Russia or Belgium is especially rare. Camp Adventure Youth Services (CAYS) is giving students the opportunity to travel the world as camp counselors, providing housing, wages and unique traveling opportunities.
This year, 42 UC Davis students have become camp counselors, said Nancy Tibbitts, the coordinator for CAYS at UC Davis.

The end of every UC Davis spring quarter is often marked by excitement for a leisurely summer, anticipation of graduation for seniors and the rising panic of those students not ready to give up the college life. This spring quarter, however, has a historical significance for the university as Chancellor Larry Vanderhoef steps down from the position he has held for 15 years.
Since Vanderhoef's appointment in 1994, UC Davis has seen expansion on almost every level. The development of the Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts, UC Davis' acceptance into the Association of American Universities (AAU), the revamping of the south entrance to campus and a drastic increase in the student population are just a few changes that have taken place under Vanderhoef's tenure.
