Elfa: UCD's students have been known as Aggies since 1922. The campus was
founded in 1908 (originally known as "University Farm" and the all male
students were then called "Davis Farmers").
Thanks for the enlightenment. Although I spent the first half of my 73 years in
California, it was in So Cal. The closest I'd come to Davis was living a year
each on the Peninsula and in Marysville.
I know a lot of independent schools, including at least two "A&Ms" I know of,
became satellite campuses for major universities.
