“Connecting as a Community”
Principles of Community Week 2023
(February 27 - March 3)
View and Register for the Events
Welcome to the 2023 Principles of Community Week! UC Davis campuses in Davis and Sacramento come together each year to celebrate the Principles of Community — our shared aspirations to value our individual differences and common ground, as we work to create an inclusive and intellectually vibrant community.
“[The ideals put forth in the original 1990 document] keep us grounded in a spirit of mutual respect ... We find strength in our diversity and recognize the value we all bring to UC Davis, no matter what our background or point of view may be.”
—Chancellor Gary S. May during the opening ceremony in February, 2022.
During this celebratory week, there are a series of events and activities that celebrate and center around the Principles of Community. These celebrations reaffirm our commitment to the highest standards of civility and decency towards all. Events are both in-person on both campuses and virtual.
