Throughout the season, fans will cherish the final strand of Pac-12 tradition amid an engulfing wave of conference realignment, but the Bears will honor their program’s rich history for another reason — the 100th anniversary of California Memorial Stadium.

Hidden beyond a narrow path adjacent to 4.0 hill and nestled in front of Walter A. Haas School of Business is one of UC Berkeley’s hidden oases —the Women’s Faculty Garden.

It’s time for that UC Berkeley pride and spirit to grow exponentially, as homecoming season is here along with a swarm of blue and gold colors everywhere your head turns.

To stroll through UC Berkeley's campus is to travel through time, whether looking out from the top of the Campanile or down from the hills above.

In a day and age that seems to hold the STEM fields in ever-growing esteem while valuing the humanities less and less, the walls and halls of this building stand out, having witnessed and been part of key moments in the campus’s history. Wheeler Hall and the wild journey it sent me on serve as physical reminders of why I do what I do as an English major.

Wheeler Hall — which has been closed since May 2016 to undergo a number of infrastructure renovations — will reopen for the upcoming fall semester.

Though visually forceful at first, approaching the clowns up close reveals their humanity and shakes this off-kilter notion. It is replaced by a slight, sparkling melancholy.

An expansive English home with vaulted ceilings, grand formal spaces and lush gardens on Euclid Avenue is on sale for $4.5 million.

UC Berkeley’s Wheeler Hall is scheduled to shut down next year as it receives an eco-friendly upgrade.

Hundreds gathered in front of the Campanile Tuesday to celebrate the tower’s 100th birthday, watching live performances of music and lights that harnessed real-time seismic activity from the Hayward Fault.
