GROWTH OF UC SAN DIEGO HAS BEEN A LONG GAME FROM THE BEGINNING .
AND IN THE BEGINNING was architect Robert E . Alexander , who in 1963 turned a vision for the university into the first Long Range Development Plan . While some of his elements weren ’ t realized ( no aerial tramway to the beach — sigh ) some held true : our library is certainly “ a great form as compelling as a Mayan pyramid ,” and other parts of the plan have likewise served as guideposts for growth , from the 1960s to ground being broken right now . Here ’ s how the latest campus developments fit in with the original outlook .
