Happy 150th birthday to UC Berkeley!
The University of California was founded on March 23, 1868, marking today as the 150th Charter Day. Here’s to another 150 years of torturing undergrads.
There’s an official event today at 11 a.m. in Haas Pavilion that will feature “a moving procession of alumni carrying class banners that date back to our beginning”, followed by a partay on Spieker Plaza. Entry is still available at the low low price of free.
To commemorate the occasion, Cal also has a list of highlights from the past 150 years.
