II. THE SOUTHERN BRANCH

INTRODUCTION

The following brief statements regarding the Southern Branch of the University are of interest to all who are in any way connected with it or with the parent institution.

HISTORY

In March, 1881, the Los Angeles State Normal School was established by legislative act. A five-acre site at the corner of Fifth and Grand avenue was secured and the corner stone of the first building was laid December 17, 1881. The school opened in August, 1882, with a faculty of three members and an enrollment of sixty-one students.

The original site and buildings having become inadequate for the growing needs of the institution, in 1907 the Legislature authorized the sale of the property, and in 1911 made an appropriation for the purchase of a more suitable location. In the following year the present site, a campus of twenty-four acres (later increased to twenty-five) was purchased, and on November 18, 1913, the corner stone of the principal building, Millspaugh Hall, was laid. In September, 1914, the school occupied the new group of buildings.

By an act of the Legislature which became effective July 24, 1919, the Los Angeles State Normal School became the Southern Branch of the University of California. The Regents of the University assumed control of the grounds, buildings and equipment and Dr .Ernest C. Moore was appointed Director of the Southern Branch of the University of California.

This act provided for continuance of teacher training courses then being given and for the institution of freshman and sophomore work of the University.

SITE AND BUILDINGS

The campus of the Southern Branch of the University of California is bounded by Vermont avenue, Monroe street, Heliotrope drive, and Willowbrook avenue. The ten buildings which form the group are in a style of architecture reminiscent of the Lombardy style found in northern Italy. The Southern California Chapter of the American Institute of Architects awarded the group its first annual medal.

CLIMATE

The climate of Los Angeles is essentially maritime and is therefore well suited to college work at all seasons of the year. The mean annual temperature is 62 degrees F. August, the warmest month, has a mean temperature of 71 degrees F. The coldest month is January, the mean temperature of which is 54 degrees F. The high percentage of sunshine and the invigorating sea breezes, are conducive to both physical and mental vigor.
