<p>When talking about athletics, it’s “Cal”</p>
<p>When talking about academics, it’s “UC Berkeley” or “Berkeley”</p>
<p>-UC Berkeley '06</p>
<p>It’s always been UC Berkeley to me.</p>
<p>why does it get “cal” for athletics?</p>
<p>I like bezerkeley better</p>
<p>Our official athletics name is the “California Golden Bears” which most people just shorten to Cal. </p>

<p>If you said UCLA is playing UC Berkeley in football this weekend, people would just give you weird looks.</p>
<p>Brad, don’t be a kill joy!</p>
<p>Bezerkeley’s aight. Sounds like a school for hippies :P</p>
<p>my philosophy professor told us that the correct way to pronounce it is ber-kelly. sounds weird, i’m sticking to birk-ly.</p>
<p>HAHA it’s funny because people are ranking the same school by different names!! It’s even funnier when the next poster puts them in a different order!!!</p>
<p>lol, it should pronounce as ber-kelly??? how wired!!!</p>
