This is a mosaic on the east side of the original powerhouse for UCB. It has seen many uses since that time, but currently stands idle and in need of seismic retrofitting. The Music Department is trying to raise the funds to convert it into a recital hall. I'm sure these ladies would approve.

The University of California at Berkeley is expanding into the several blocks west of traditional campus with several new skyscrapers. It's hard, anymore, to know where the campus starts and stops!

There are many newer buildings on the Berkeley campus, along with a rich collection of older ones, some dating to the 19th century.
The trees are pollarded London Plane trees at the Campanile.
This is Evans Hall, and it is apparently not loved on campus.

And for a more broad-minded description:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evans_Hall_(UC_Berkeley)
The building is historically significant to computing; seat of the math, statistics, economics departments.
In the '70's, you were still allowed to dive into the pool at U.C.'s Strawberry Canyon. The upper pool, shown here, is now (2010) gone completely. It sprang a leak, and the University wouldn't spring to repair it.
At the corner of Camden Dr was a UCB branch which displayed the bank's vault in a circular structure. This building at 9601 Wilshire, one of many built in the early 1960s that changed the face of formerly sleepy Beverly Hills, looks identical today, but the ground-floor space seen here is now a Sports Club LA fitness center. The facility's cafe, Oliver, occupies the old vault area. Beyond, the 9665 Wilshire building is being framed; it opened in 1973 with the Security Pacific logo (another defunct LA-based bank) and now features Morgan Stanley SmithBarney signage. In the background is the 1955 City National Bank building, the first of Beverly Hills' modern office buildings; it has (unfortunately) shed its original turquoise skin for a more modern look.
I may not look excited, but we were on our way to the Beverly Wilshire's Milton F Kreis drugstore for a snack on this hazy Saturday.
