Founding UCSC Chancellor Dean McHenry's education, research, and practical experience in California politics from the 1930s to the 1950s helped him develop the savvy and political acumen to create and lead a boldly experimental campus of the University of California. This digital exhibit explores McHenry's political career, focusing particularly on his participation in Upton Sinclair's 1934 End Poverty in California (EPIC) campaign for governor of California and his key role in authoring the 1960 Master Plan for Higher Education.
