AS A NEW MILLENNIUM DAWNS,

UC SANTA CRUZ SCHOLARS are making major contributions to fields that will influence the development of society in the next 1,000 years . . . areas of inquiry that, for the common good, will require individual imagina-tion and collective commitment . . . scholarship that will be tied to our economic vitality, the fight against 21st-century disease, or the sustainability of our planet's ecosystems . . . research that will enable us to more easily communicate with others, or understand ourselves. The pages that follow spotlight eight such fields—and a few of the many UCSC people whose ideas and expertise make us optimistic about the new millennium.
