Before he was the iconic Atticus Finch from To Kill a Mockingbird, Gregory Peck was just another student walking the paths of UC Berkeley.

After transferring to Berkeley in 1936, Peck studied pre-med before switching to English. It was during college that he discovered his passion for acting, performing in several university theatre productions that would change the course of his life forever.

With an acting career spanning several decades, Peck starred in classics including Roman Holiday (1953), The Big Country (1958), The Guns of Navarone (1961), Cape Fear (1962), and To Kill a Mockingbird (1962), which earned him the Academy Award for Best Actor. In 1999, the American Film Institute named him the 12th Greatest Male Star of Classic Hollywood Cinema, cementing his place as one of the most influential icons on the big screen.

Alumni House has anchored the heart of campus since 1954 ๐Ÿป, when more than 18,000 alums came together to build it. Behind walls of brick, glass, and steel sits a patio ringed by Japanese maples, redwoods, and ferns ๐Ÿƒ, steps from Zellerbach Hall and the Haas Pavilion. Host your tailgate ๐Ÿˆ, wedding ๐Ÿ’, or conference where Cal's community has gathered for over seventy years.

Cal alums get $21 tickets for Jeff Kent's Hall of Fame night

โšพ Jeff Kent set a single-season doubles record as a Cal freshman in 1987, started three years at shortstop for the Golden Bears, and helped the team reach the 1988 College World Series. This year, he became the first Cal baseball alum elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ On August 29, the San Francisco Giants retire Kent's No. 21 in a pregame ceremony at Oracle Park, and Cal alums should be there for it. Lower Level tickets are available for $21 through this exclusive offer, and a portion of every ticket sold goes back to the Cal Alumni Association.

๐Ÿป Event details
Game: SF Giants vs. Arizona Diamondbacks, Jeff Kent Hall of Fame Night
Date: Saturday, August 29, 2026
Time: 7:05 p.m., Oracle Park

๐Ÿ“ธ The results are in: congratulations to Elizabeth Thacker '27, winner of this year's photo contest.

"Bears Through the Years" asked our community to look back, and you delivered. Freshman move-in days on Bancroft, championship nights at Memorial Stadium, graduation portraits under the Campanile, and reunions decades in the making all found their way into our feed. Together, these photos told a single story: once a Bear, always a Bear.

๐Ÿป Thank you to everyone who entered. Your photos are a reminder that the Cal experience doesn't end at Commencement. It carries forward in every chapter section, every alumni gathering, and every moment someone spots blue and gold from across a room and feels instantly at home.

As this year's contest comes to a close, we invite you to carry that spirit forward. A gift to the CAA Fund supports current students and keeps alums connected to Berkeley, for life.

In a blink of an eye, summer is at its tail end. For UC Berkeley, that means many students will be returning to campus soon โ€” and with that, all the festivities! Cal Performances, UC Berkeleyโ€™s performing arts presenter, will be starting their season in September and will be putting on shows for performing artists of several mediums and genres. Sproul Plaza will be lively again, after a quiet summer, with clubs flyering and tabling throughout the beginning of the semester. Homecoming is also around the corner!

What was your favorite back-to-school memory during your time at Berkeley?

We asked Cal Alums what were their staples during their time at Berkeley and they answered! From dorm essentials to their favorite studying spot, they have passed down their knowledge and experience to the incoming and current class of Golden Bears.

With Moffitt Library reopening after its grand renovations and Berkeley warming up, it is the perfect time for one of Yaliโ€™s strawberry banana smoothies. We recommend that every student check out these spots! Did we miss anything? What were your essentials during your time at Cal?

See everybody back on campus soon! โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿป
