This book portrays the remarkable story of what a group of enterprising and enlightened citizens achieved in creating a major research university in a largely ignored area of the Central Valley of California. It emphasizes the entrepreneurial spirit of volunteer leaders who would not let go of a dream of a prestigious university in their hometown. It also conveys the courageous example of a dedicated chancellor who was fighting devastating health issues in creating a new university and in overcoming major environmental issues in the process. “The Miracle of Merced” summarizes the pioneering spirit of faculty, students and volunteers who were challenged by a dream that many felt would be impossible to achieve. The book also projects what that same university campus is expected to achieve in the 50th anniversary of its founding and the lasting impact it will have on its community and the thousands of students who will benefit from this miracle for generations to come.
