Be mindful, we're in a drought!
Recently residents were asked what they do to
conserve water...
"While waiting for the shower water to heat
up, I collect the water into a bucket and use it
for watering plants." - Alex, Webster Hall
"Eat more veggies than meat, it takes less
water to produce!" - Fanny, Alder Hall
"Take shorter showers and be mindful of how
much water is going down the drain when you
have the faucet on." - Sarah, Bixby Hall
"Taking shorter showers" - Michelle, Thoreau
Hall
"At home our laundry piping goes out to the
plants." - Ivy, Thoreau Hall
"I take shorter showers by multitasking. I'll
brush my teeth when my conditioner is
setting." - Sandra W. Tercero

Campus Department Announcements
Aggie Guardian App
Aggie Guardian is available to anyone with a "ucdavis.edu" email address.
Features include a virtual safety escort, an icon to make 911 calls quickly and
the ability to text tips to the UC Davis Police Department, plus access to create
a "Smart911" emergency profile.
The app can be downloaded for free for Apple and Android phones. You'll see it
listed as Rave Guardian, but, after it recognizes your ucdavis.edu email account,
it converts to Aggie Guardian, specific to UC Davis.
Police Chief Matt Carmichael is encouraging students and employees to explore
and use it. "People can use Aggie Guardian for a greater sense of security as
they move about campus," the chief said. "We also hope they'll take advantage
of the features that will enable them to quickly call 911 when they need help and
communicate important information that will help us find and assist them."
Virtual safety escort
Aggie Guardian is named in part for its ability to act as a virtual safety escort. A user selects a "guardian" such as a friend, family member or the UC Davis Police Department - and sets a timer with his or her
approximate time of travel. If the user doesn't deactivate the timer before it counts down, the app sends an
alert to the guardian.
Smart911 profile and other features
Anyone who uses Aggie Guardian can create a Smart 911 profile to help emergency services find and assist
the user when he or she calls 911. The app also offers an icon to help users quickly place an emergency call to the UC Davis Police Department
or nearest 911 service; and enables texting of eyewitness reports to campus police if a user sees something
suspicious.
Privacy
Given the personal information that a user may include in a Smart911 profile and the need to maintain privacy
while using the virtual safety escort, privacy protection is a priority.
Learn more on the Police Department's Aggie Guardian Web page. AB540 and Undocumented Student Center
The AB540 and Undocumented Student Center invites you to register for our UndocuAlly Peer Training. Join us in learning about the experiences and struggles of undocumented students at UC Davis, while

You can register at: www.tinyurl.com/UndocuAllyPeer. Space is limited!
Please contact Vanessa Segundo if you have any questions or concerns (vsegundo@ucdavis.edu). We look
forward to seeing you then!

Open Courses
ECM 1: The Design of Coffee
This very popular course offers you a chance to learn how to
transform raw coffee beans to an icy and refreshing cup of Joe.
Rejuvenation in a cup!
GE Credit: 3 units of Science and Engineering; Visual Literacy and
Scientific Literacy
Learn more at: http://bit.ly/SAVEAp
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I really get to roast and brew coffee in this class?
Yes! The core component of this class is a weekly 2-hour lab session, where you will do experiments
involving coffee. Examples include taking apart a Mr. Coffee brewer to analyze how it works, measuring the
pH of coffee versus brew time, and examining the energy usage of different roasting profiles. In every lab
session you will get to taste the resulting coffee, working with your group to ultimately make your unique
design for the best-tasting cup of coffee.
I don't drink coffee. Does this class require me to drink it anyway?
No, you can take the entire course without tasting any of the coffee, and doing only visual and olfactory
(smelling) sensory analyses. However, one of the things you will learn in this class is that properly prepared,
fresh roasted coffee can taste nothing like the bitter stuff you might have tasted before. Some coffees even
taste sweet without adding sugar. Moreover, a fun part of the class is the blind taste test at the end of the
quarter, where you get to complete with your classmates Iron Chef style.
I only drink decaffeinated coffee. Is decaf available?
Yes. For students who cannot or choose not to consume caffeine, decaffeinated green coffee beans are
available for both roasting and brewing.
I've heard engineering courses are difficult. Is this class going to destroy my GPA?
No! This class is designed as a general education course for students who are not majoring in engineering. All
grades will be based on a curve using standards appropriate for a non-quantitative, freshmen level class.
Will I get GE credit for this course?
Yes, this class counts as 3 units of Science and Engineering credit for GE. The course also satisfies 3 units
of both Scientific Literacy and Visual Literacy.
Why is this class in the department of chemical engineering? Are we going to be adding weird
chemicals to the coffee?
Absolutely not! During the entire course we will use only green coffee beans and water. As we will discuss in
the class, chemical engineers apply quantitative reasoning to a tremendously wide variety of industrial
applications. Quite a lot of our graduates are actually hired by the food and beverage industries. But the main
goal here is to introduce students to how chemical engineers analyze things, using coffee as a fun (and
delicious!) example.
Native American Experience (NAS 10)
Monday-Thursday | 10 AM - 11:40 AM | Summer Session One (June 22-July 31, 2015)
Professor Steven Crum (Western Shoshone), Department of Native American Studies (NAS), UC Davis
Interested in taking an Exciting 2015 UC Davis Summer School Course? Take Native American Experience
(NAS 10)!
This course provide an overview of the significant histories, life-ways, and issues ithat revolve around the
past and contemporary Indigenous cultures of the Americas. The course will look at a number of important
topics, including cultural, economic, and political resurgence of Native American peoples of the United States.
Gaming and Casinos is an example of economic resurgence.
Because NAS follows a Western Hemispheric approach to the study of Indigenous peoples, lectures will
cover important events that have taken place in those Latin American nation-states that have sizable
Indigenous populations. This includes Bolivia, Ecuador, Guatemala, Mexico, and Peru. Some of the topics will
be the Chiapas Rebellion of 1994 and how and why Evo Morales became the first Indigenous president of
recent times to be elected to the Office of the Presidency of Bolivia in 2005.
Moreover, NAS 10 will give some coverage to Indigenous peoples living in three Asian nation-states that
recognize the status of Indigenous peoples: Japan, the Philippines, and Taiwan. The course will give attention
to how the issues of Indigenous peoples of Latin America and Asia compare and contrast with those of Native
American people in the U.S.
NAS 10 fulfills a number of GE categories.
Required Textbooks
+ Eisler, Kim, Revenge of the Pequot: How a Small Native American Tribe Created the World's Most
Profitable Casino (2001).
+ Wilkinson, Charles, Blood Struggle: The Rise of Modern Indian Nations (2005).
