TURLOCK — The athletics department at California State University, Stanislaus, announced today a combination of gifts that will fund much-needed facilities projects. The upgrades will enhance the university's student-athlete experience and improve recruiting efforts.

A unique project designed to illustrate the native plant communities that historically existed along a transect from the Central Valley to the High Sierra was dedicated during a ceremony at Stanislaus State on Oct. 25.

The Trans-California Pathway is an outdoor arboretum located on the south side of the Stanislaus State campus. The pathway will be used as an outdoor laboratory and source of material for biology classes, an educational attraction for the university and the community as a whole, and a valuable field trip destination for young students.
