BOX 121 SANTA CLARA, CALIFORNIA 95052 J2015-011.01 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Santa Clara University (SCU) is proposing its 2020 Plan for the enhancement of the University’s education programs and student support. Santa Clara 2020 is an integrated strategic five-year development plan that incorporates overall University goals in education with an Enrollment Plan and Facilities Master Plan. Santa Clara University is planning to create districts of like disciplines on campus, thus enhancing the opportunities for students and staff to work across closely allied fields. The University is also continuing its program of modernizing or replacing facilities. A significant part of Santa Clara 2020 is the University’s five-year program of capital improvement projects. The major capital projects comprise the Unified Facility for the School of Law, the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) Center, and two new residence halls. Other projects include replacement of the Cowell Center; additions to the Pat Malley Fitness Center, Benson Center, and Dunne Hall; and demolition of Kennedy Commons and the Daly Science Center. Planning, permitting, and construction of these projects is phased over the next five years, with construction of two major projects set for mid-2016, and the last project completed by the end of 2019. The implementation of the Santa Clara 2020 Plan and capital improvements requires an amendment to the University’s Master Use Permit, first granted by the City of Santa Clara in 1997. As part of the application for the amendment and in support of the Environmental Impact Report for the amended Master Use Permit, Albion Environmental, Inc., in cooperation with David J. Powers and Associates, has prepared the present Master Cultural Resources Treatment Plan. The SCU campus contains some of the most significant archaeological deposits in California. Investigations on campus over the past 40 years have revealed important finds dating from the pre- Colonial (often called prehistoric), Spanish Colonial, Mexican, and Early American periods. Ancestral remains, dating from 1500 to 2000 years ago, have been discovered at many places on the campus. The campus holds the sites of the third, fourth, and fifth locations of Mission Santa Clara de Asís along with the large Indian village or Rancheria that formed around the Mission. Santa Clara is one of California’s earliest post-Colonial towns and archaeological resources related to Mexican and Early American residence, commerce, and industry are located at many places on campus. The number, distribution, and significance of cultural resources require the University to anticipate and plan for discoveries at virtually every development project that includes ground disturbance. The Master Cultural Resources Treatment Plan contains: 1) a review of existing conditions on campus, including a discussion of known and anticipated resources; 2) contextual information on the pre-Colonial, Mission, Mexican, and American periods, as represented on campus; 3) resource sensitivities for each of the major and secondary capital projects; 4) general protocols for the treatment of resources, including treatment of human remains and resources of significance to Native Americans; and 5) general protocols for analysis, reporting, and public interpretation. As each major project or secondary projects with resource sensitivities enters the design phase, the University will prepare a project-specific treatment plan tiered from the Master Cultural Resources Treatment Plan. These specific plans will match project designs to the known resource base. They will also provide detailed, site-specific historical and archaeological data. Predictions of anticipated resources and a project-specific approach to resource preservation detailing the desired outcome, or archaeological mitigation will also be included, if necessary. Cultural Resources Treatment Plan for the 5-Year Development Plan at Santa Clara University — DRAFT Albion Environmental, Inc. David J. Powers and Associates, Inc. July 2015 1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This Master Cultural Resources Treatment Plan is in part based on a number of treatment plans prepared for Santa Clara University beginning with the general treatment plan for the Ten Year Capital improvement project prepared by, Past Forward, Jones & Stokes and, Albion in 2004. Project specific plans prepared by Past Forward and Albion addressed several significant capital project on campus, all of which gathered up baseline information, and designed field techniques and research methodologies that were innovative and have found their way into the present plan. Lorie Garcia of Beyond Buildings provided historical information for many of those plans as well as original material for this plan, without which we could not have prepared the historical sections of the Master Plan. We are grateful to the University, particularly Linda Hylkema of the University’s Archaeology Lab, for sharing information on past projects and archaeological investigations. These have been crucial in developing the campus wide inventory of projects and features. Chris Shay, Assistant Vice President for University Operations, also provided important clarifications on the projects in the University’s proposed 2020 Master Plan. We are very pleased that Rosemary Cambra, Alan Leventhal, Ann Marie Sayers, and Irene Zwierlein, representing tribes in the broader Ohlone Native American community, were able to tour the project sites and provide comments and recommendations. We trust the Ohlone community will continue to take an active role in resource management as the projects in the 2020 Plan are realized. Albion Environmental, Inc.

Our mission is to research the experiences of Japanese Americans in World War II Arkansas and educate the citizens of Arkansas and the nation about the two camps at Jerome and Rohwer. Major funding for Life Interrupted was provided by the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation. We share the story of Japanese Americans because we honor our nation’s diversity. We believe in the importance of remembering our history to better guard against the prejudice that threatens liberty and equality in a democratic society. We strive as a metropolitan univer- sity and a world-class museum and to provide a voice for Japanese Americans and a forum that enables all people to explore their own heritage and culture.
