OUR HISTORY A HISTORY OF FIRSTS
1851 Pacific was California's first chartered institution of higher learning and the state's first college to open its doors to women.
1955-57
1878 Pacific's Conservatory of Music was the first founded west of the Mississippi River.
Under the leadership of Dr. Robert Burns, Pacific added a School of Pharmacy, Graduate School and School of Engineering.
1924
1962-66
Pacific's campus moved to Stockton, becoming the first private four-year university in the Central Valley.
In 1962, Pacific extended its footprint into San Francisco to acquire a private dental school and into Sacramento to merge with McGeorge School of Law.
1963-87 Three new colleges were established that modeled prestigious British universities, Oxford and Cambridge, integrating faculty and students into distinctive living and learning communities.
1995-2009
TODAY
Pacific continued to advance it legacy of innovation and leadership under President Donald V. DeRosa, investing more than $200 million in facilities renovation on all three campuses. Pacific also became the first to offer a four-year graduation guarantee.
Under President Chris Callahan, Pacific continues to increase its accelerated program offerings and the university has intensified its commitment to experiential learning, increasing opportunities for undergrad research, internships, community service, and study abroad.
PACIFIC FIGHT SONG The fight song was written in 1922 by Bob Couchman '22 and composed by Russ Bodley '23. The original title of the fight song was "Hungry Tigers".
COME ON, YOU HUNGRY
