History

W.K. Kellogg Develops Arabian Horse Ranch

W.K. Kellogg, known for his famous Corn Flakes, had a life long passion for Arabian horses. After purchasing 377 acres at a cost of $25,000 USD, Kellogg developed the land into a world-renowned Arabian horse ranch. The first building erected contained the horse stables and its used to e located where the university plaza currently exists. Will Keith Kellogg, usually referred to as W. K. Kellogg, (April 7, 1860 – October 6, 1951) was a U.S. industrialist in food manufacturing. ...

On May 17, 1932 a crowd of more that 20,000 spectators converged on the ranch to witness Kellogg’s donation of his Arabian Horse Ranch, including 87 horses to the University of California. In return for the generous grant, the University agreed to keep the Arabian horses and to continue the Sunday Horse shows that began in 1927.

In 1933, Julian McPhee, assumed the presidency of the California State Polytechnic University at San Luis Obispo.

Cal Poly Pomona Expands

Plagued with financial problems, Voorhis was forced to close his doors only ten years after he had opened his facility. The demise of the facility gave McPhee the opportunity to expand Cal Poly Pomona. In August of 1938, Charles Voorhis donated his facility as a gift to the California State University System. In the same year, McPhee’s request for the land was approved and the entire horticulture program was moved form San Luis Obispo to the new Southern California campus. 1938 (MCMXXXVIII) was a common year starting on Saturday (link will take you to calendar). ...

Further expansion was halted by the onset of World War 2. The southern Cal Poly campus was closed when the majority of its students where called into active duty and the former Kellogg ranch was transformed into an Army remount station. After the war, the ranch faced an uncertain future, but in 1949 the 813-acre W.K. Kellogg Arabian Horse Ranch was deeded to the state, a proposal to which Kellogg foundation agreed, provided the Sunday horse shows returned.

The Master Plan for Higher Education established the California State College System with its own Board of Trustees, and 329 women enrolled at the University for the first time. In that same year, the Legislature enacted Education Code Section 22606, which identified the primary function of the State College as “…the provision of instruction for undergraduate students and graduate students, through the master’s degree, in the liberal arts and sciences, in applied fields and in the professions, including the teaching profession.” 1961 (MCMLXI) was a common year starting on Sunday (the link is to a full 1961 calendar). ...

The University Library's modernist architecture at Cal Poly Pomona

Classroom, Laboratory & Administration (CLA building)

Cal Poly Pomona promotes its "learn by doing" philosophy, where an essential part of the curriculum is hands-on application of knowledge. The university shares with the University of California, Riverside, the distinction of having the only agriculture programs in Southern California. Farmlands flank the campus, giving a stark contrast to a stereotypical urban university. Furthermore, Cal Poly Pomona and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo maintain the only accredited architecture programs in the California State University system.

Student life

Cal Poly Pomona is located in what could be called an industrial-agricultural suburb. This location has contributed to limited local housing and a largely commuter student body. This, in part, has led to an environment where many students come to school only for class and a less active student body than is traditionally seen at state colleges. Unlike most California Universities, Cal Poly Pomona does not have a student TV or radio station, but campus events are covered by the student newspaper, the Poly Post. A student newspaper is a newspaper run by university or high or middle school students that covers local and in particular school or university news. ...

Controversies

In 1998, the university planned to confer an honorary degree to Robert Mugabe, President of Zimbabwe (the degree was to be conferred at the College of Business commencement, on June 13; Mugabe would be the commencement speaker). Strong negative opinion arose among students and employees; most often cited were anti-Semitic and anti-gay statements made by Mugabe and human rights violations that had taken place during his regime. The Faculty Senate passed a resolution against conferring an honorary degree. Mugabe's decision not to attend the commencement provided a rationale for the decision by the university not to grant the degree.
