University of California, Berkeley

The Berkeley Center for Right-Wing Studies (CRWS) is an interdisciplinary academic research center at the University of California, Berkeley, focused on studies of right-wing politics. It is housed at the Institute for the Study of Societal Issues (ISSI). It was founded in 2009, originally as the Center for the Comparative Study of Right-Wing Movements. The CRWS researches right-wing movements in the 20th and 21st centuries, and is one of the first institutions in the United States dedicated to scholarly research and analysis of right-wing politics and movements.

The Bancroft Library in the center of the campus of the University of California, Berkeley, is the university's primary special-collections library. It was acquired from its founder, Hubert Howe Bancroft, in 1905, with the proviso that it retain the name Bancroft Library in perpetuity. The collection at that time consisted of 50,000 volumes of materials on the history of California and the North American West. It is the largest such collection in the world. The building the library is located in, the Doe Annex, was completed in 1950.

South Hall is the oldest building on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley, built in 1873 in the Napoleon III style. It is the only remaining building of the original campus. South Hall was originally the counterpart of North Hall, which no longer exists, but was located where the Bancroft Library currently stands. The first physics laboratory in the United States was hosted in South Hall in 1879. It also has been home to the College of Agriculture, a business school, and a temporary museum for the state geological survey. The university Herbarium was housed in South Hall from 1890 till 1897. It currently houses the UC Berkeley School of Information. When Wheeler Hall was planned, the entrance of South Hall was removed from the west side and added on the east side entrance. The original wooden porch was replaced in 1997 with glass fiber reinforced concrete. According to legend, the rooftop scene of Mary Poppins was filmed at South Hall, although this has been shown to be false.Campus tour guides often point out a small stone bear, sculpted by Michael H. Casey, in the architecture of South Hall, on the balcony railing above the entrance, in the third circle from the left, claiming it is the smallest bear statue on campus. The four-story building is located southwest of Sather Tower.

The UC Berkeley School of Information or the I School is a graduate school offering four degree programs: a professional master's degree in Information Management and Systems (MIMS), a professional master's degree in Information and Data Science (MIDS), a professional master's degree in Information and Cybersecurity (MICS), and an academic doctoral degree. Created in 1994, the I School is UC Berkeley's newest school. It was previously known as the School of Information Management and Systems (SIMS) until 2006. Its roots trace back to UC Berkeley's School of Librarianship founded in the 1920s. The program is located in UC Berkeley's South Hall, near Sather Tower in the center of the UC Berkeley campus.

Sather Tower is a bell tower with clocks on its four faces on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley. It is more commonly known as The Campanile ( KAMP-ə-NEE-lee, -⁠lay, also US: KAHMP-) for its resemblance to the Campanile di San Marco in Venice. It is a recognizable symbol of the university. Given by Jane K. Sather in memory of her husband, banker Peder Sather, it is the third-tallest bell-and-clock-tower in the world. Its current 61-bell carillon, built around a nucleus of 12 bells also given by Jane Sather, can be heard for many miles and supports an extensive program of education in campanology. Sather Tower also houses many of the Department of Integrative Biology's fossils (mainly from the La Brea Tar Pits) because its cool, dry interior is suited for their preservation.

The Doe Memorial Library is the main library of the University of California, Berkeley Library System. The library is named after its benefactor, Charles Franklin Doe, who in 1904 bequeathed funds for its construction. It is located near the center of the Berkeley campus, facing Memorial Glade, and is adjacent to the Bancroft Library. In 1900, Emile Benard won an architectural competition for the design of the library, and the Neoclassical-style building was completed in 1911. The Doe Library building is the gateway to the underground Gardner (Main) Stacks, named in honor of David P. Gardner, the 15th President of the University of California.

The Haas Institute for a Fair and Inclusive Society at UC Berkeley was founded in 2010 through funding by the Evelyn and Walter Haas Jr. Fund, as a part of the UC Berkeley Initiative for Equity, Inclusion, and Diversity. Organized into seven research clusters, the Haas Institute involves over 100 researchers and faculty across the University of California system. Eight endowed chairs focused on equity and inclusion form the core of the clusters.

Moses Hall, formerly known as Eshelman Hall, is a historic building on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley in Berkeley, California. It was built in 1931, and designed in the Tudor Revival and Gothic Revival styles by architect George W. Kelham. It was first named for John Morton Eshleman, and it was renamed for Bernard Moses in 1963. The building houses the Institute of Governmental Studies on the first floor, and the Howison Philosophy Library on the third floor.

Wheeler Hall is a building on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley in Berkeley, California in the Classical Revival style. Home to the English department, it was named for the philologist and university president Benjamin Ide Wheeler. The building was opened in 1917. It houses the largest lecture hall on the Berkeley campus, Wheeler Auditorium. On February 29, 1940, UC Berkeley professor Ernest O. Lawrence received the Nobel Prize in Physics in Wheeler Auditorium from Carl Wallerstedt, Consul General from Sweden, due to the danger of crossing the Atlantic during World War II. The building was the site of many of the Free Speech Movement protests in the 1960s and is a focal point of the Berkeley campus. In the 2010s, it has been the place for many university protests and several building takeovers.

The College of Letters and Science is the largest college at the University of California, Santa Barbara. The College, which offers 90 majors and 38 minors to over 20,000 undergraduates and 2,000 graduate students, has about 700 faculty members.

Durant Hall is a historical building in Berkeley, California. It was originally dedicated in 1911 as the Boalt Memorial Hall of Law, and was named in the memory of Judge John H. Boalt (1837–1901) because his wife, Mrs. Elizabeth J. Boalt, gave $100,000 towards its construction. A group of California lawyers gave $50,000. The four-story building was designed by architect John Galen Howard (1864-1931) in the Beaux-Arts style, like much of the core campus of the University of California, Berkeley. From 1911 to 1951, the building was the home of the UC Berkeley School of Jurisprudence, which later became the School of Law. By 1921, enrollment had reached 285, which was clearly too much for a building of that size and resulted in severe overcrowding. The building's tiny size was one of the primary constraints on the growth of the law school at Berkeley for over three decades.: 171 In 1951, the law school finally moved to a newly-constructed law building in the southeastern corner of campus, which was dedicated as the new Boalt Hall. The old Boalt Hall was renamed Durant Hall in honor of the first president of the University of California Berkeley, Henry Durant (1802-1875), president from 1870 to 1872. Durant Hall was then home to UC Berkeley's East Asian Library from 1951 to 2007. That library also grew too big for Durant Hall, and like the law school, was suffering from severe overcrowding by the time it moved to the new C.V. Starr East Asian Library building in 2008. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 25, 1982. In 2010, after a renovation, Durant Hall reopened as the new home for the offices of the deans of the UC Berkeley College of Letters and Science.

Evans Hall is the statistics, economics, and mathematics building on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley.
