Narrative:
California State University, Fullerton main campus consists of 236 acres and is bordered on the east by the Orange Freeway (Route 57), located in Fullerton in north Orange County, about 25 miles from downtown Los Angeles and about 21 miles from nearby beaches. Founded in 1957 by act of the California Legislature, the campus consists of 29 permanent buildings or building clusters, with five new residence halls which house 1,084 students. Satellite locations include the Irvine Campus, Grand Central Art Center in Santa Ana, the Garden Grove Center in Garden Grove, the Fullerton Arboretum, and Zzyzx Desert Studies Center. The CSUF Irvine Campus, near the Irvine Spectrum, offers mostly upper-division and graduate-level courses in a convenient location for students who live and work in southern Orange County. The Fullerton Arboretum, a 26-acre preserve developed in cooperation with the city of Fullerton, is located at the northeast corner of campus and is open to the public. The Arboretum hosts a visitor and conference center, including a museum devoted to the agricultural history of Orange County and the contributions of Japanese-Americans. The Desert Studies Center is located at Soda Springs (a.k.a. “Zzyzx”), on the western shore of Soda Dry Lake, and in the northwest corner of the Mojave National Preserve. We are accessed via Interstate 15, the main highway between the Los Angeles area of Southern California, and Las Vegas, Nevada. In its location, it serves as a convenient departure point for groups visiting the Death Valley National Park, the Kelso Dunes, the Afton Canyon riparian areas, the Cima Dome and Volcanic area, the historic Mojave Road, the Early Man Site at Calico, the Providence, New York, Granite, and Clark mountains, and many other interesting features and localities in the East Mojave Desert.
