Gamedays at California Memorial Stadium are electric, bringing tens of thousands of fans together in one place. The energy is undeniable. So is the waste.
Bears Mobile, the only mobile phone plan created specifically for UC Berkeley Golden Bears fans, is now available through a collaboration between UC Berkeley, T-Mobile, Collegiate Mobile, and Learfield.
Roaring fans, touchdowns, tackles and sustainability… Wait, sustainability? In the exciting world of collegiate athletics, sustainability might not always be the foremost thought when thinking about sports, but Cal Zero Waste and Cal Athletics are teaming up to tackle this issue head-on.
Cal Day is a longtime Berkeley tradition that has served as the campus’s annual open house, welcoming over 40,000 prospective students, alumni, the surrounding community and fans of the university to UC Berkeley. This year, the event was dedicated solely towards admitted students and their families to see what UC Berkeley has to offer from academics to the feel of the campus community.
Bank of the West, the university’s official bank, has been a longtime sponsor of registered student organization (RSO) grants awarded through the LEAD (Leadership, Engagement, Advising, & Development) Center.
At first glance, it may seem like a strange sustainability initiative to increase the size of waste bins in the student dorms at UC Berkeley, but a successful pilot program has recently proven otherwise.
Between academics, career development and social activities, maintaining healthy habits as a college student is far from easy. What is most readily available around campus, while also being reasonably priced, typically tends to be unhealthy.
In the summer of 2018, a group of 20 higher education professionals met at UC Berkeley to share best practices on campuswide partnerships and sponsorships. Four years later, the group has evolved into a formal not-for-profit organization that now includes membership from over 65 national colleges and universities.

In FY21, we learned the true meaning of the word partnership. Despite the uncertainty of life on campus, our partners continued their support of UC Berkeley, demonstrating flexibility throughout changes brought on from the pandemic.
Moving is one of the most stressful and anxiety-inducing tasks as a college student. Each year, thousands of UC Berkeley students lease unfurnished apartments and houses, furnish them, and then find themselves questioning what to do with the furniture when moving out. This often results in students hastefully leaving furniture on the streets, cluttering the curbsides of Berkeley.
Most students at UC Berkeley have seen the Bank of the West branch on the first floor of the ASUC Student Union, flanked by green columns and edged with an impressive living wall.
