It is also the first full-time public university in California. The school began enrolling students in September. 1869. At that time, there were 40 students in the whole school 10.

1873, the school moved to a new location near Oakland. Frederick H. Billings, a director of the University of California, proposed adding "Berkeley" to the name of the school in memory of george berkeley, a philosopher in the18th century (Berkeley's name is also in memory of this great man).

Therefore, the original University of California was also equivalent to "University of California at Berkeley". (Note: "Campus" is a historical translation misunderstanding. Today, a "campus" of the University of California is equivalent to an independent university. )
