Entry procedures for Europe and the United Kingdom are changing and travelers need to be aware of three new systems: Electronic Travel Authorization, the European Travel Information and Authorization System, and the Entry/Exit System.

Mail Services would like to thank the campus and UC Davis Health for their support of this year’s Food Drive.

Campus Mail Services collected 1,517 pounds of food and other non-perishable essentials, which included 185 pounds donated by AggieSurplus customers during November in-store shopping days. The collection was donated to the ASUCD Pantry, which provides food and basic essentials to UC Davis students. 

To streamline the Revenue Agreement process,  improvements based on feedback from Aggie Enterprise stakeholders – including department and central office users – will be implemented starting Monday, December 9, 2024, at 8 a.m.
