San Luis Obispo Campus Nestled in the Chorro Valley along Highway 1 midway between the cities of San Luis Obispo and Morro Bay, Cuesta’s San Luis Obispo campus is just a few minutes’ drive from Highway 101. Deer and wildlife from surrounding hills and fields frequently visit the 150-acre campus, which is located in the central part of the county. Facilities include a library/learning resources center, a student center, a conference center, an art gallery, a 150-seat theater, children’s centers, a health center and classroom/laboratory buildings. A new high-tech learning center, a child development center and art/music labs are also available to students. A new 400-seat, $12.5 million Theater Arts Building is currently under construction with a completion date of December 2008.
