Davis earned a bachelor of science degree in business administration from California Western University , the name under which USIU was founded , in 1963. He was a candidate for mayor of San Diego and was selected for this year’s alumni honor because of “his proven record of leadership and accomplishment in business and community affairs,” according to a statement distributed by the university.
