Pacifica's Lambert Campus
Pacifica's Lambert Road Campus is on the site of a
former private estate that was built in 1924. Special efforts have been
taken to enhance and maintain the campus in a manner appropriate to the
history of the property and its geographic location. In addition to
classrooms and lecture halls, the 13-acre Lambert Road campus houses
faculty and administrative offices, the Graduate Research Library, the
Joseph Campbell Archives and Library, extensive organic gardens, and
the Pacific bookstore.
Both of Pacifica's campuses
are located in the coastal California foothills of the Santa Ynez
Mountains, approximately 90 miles north of Los Angeles, and eight miles
south of Santa Barbara. These two quiet and beautifully landscaped
campuses offer ideal settings for contemplation and study. In forming
the setting for its campuses, Pacifica has taken special care of the
land.
The plantings and structures have been designed to blend in with and
give back to the environment. The gardens and "people paths" are
arranged in such a way as to invite the birds, insects, and other
animals of the area to make their homes in these places. Existing
orchards have been converted to organic production. By growing fresh
fruits, herbs, and vegetables on campus, Pacifica moves toward its goal
of environmental sustainability. Map to Lambert Road Campus
