At some point during your time at 51�ԹϺ�� Davis, it’s likely you’ve encountered Surge III. Located in the center of campus, a block down from the Silo, Surge III has been composed of a variety of departments, programs and classrooms.

Surge III was originally purchased in 1966, as a temporary building to accommodate the surge of students from the School of Medicine and has since housed a range of other departments, such as Undergraduate Education, Molecular and Cellular Biology, and two general assignment classrooms.
