6440 University of California

The University of California was founded in 1868 as a public, state-supported land-grant institution. It was written into the State Constitution of 1879 as a public trust, to be administered by an independent governing board - the Regents of the University of California. The Board of Regents includes 28 members: seven ex officio, 20 appointed by the Governor with the approval of the Senate for staggered terms, and one student appointed by the Board.
