Background
California State Polytechnic University, Pomona (Cal Poly Pomona) was once the southern, agrarian campus of the California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo (Cal Poly San Luis Obispo). Founded in 1938, the campus was originally located in San Dimas at the former Voorhis School for Boys. In 1949, ACR 100 (Resolution Chapter 190, Statutes of 1949) turned the Kellogg family ranch at Pomona over to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. In 1956, the agrarian campus moved from San Dimas to Pomona and the name changed to the California State Polytechnic College, Kellogg-Voorhis. Ten years later, the college became independent of Cal Poly San Luis Obispo by becoming the sixteenth California State College campus. The college transitioned into a full university in 1972. The two presidents during this period were Dr. Robert C. Kramer (1966-1977) and Dr. Hugh O. La Bounty (1977-1991).
