    Bay Area Bees, I'm hoping you can point me in a good direction!

    An idea I have for our guestbook is to get a coffee table book that our guests can sign.  We met at Cal, so I'm hoping to find one that has to do with the school itself, whether it has to do with the athletics, architecture, whatever.  Or I'd be willing to settle for one just about the city of Berkeley if I can't find one about the school specifically.

    Problem is, I've been Googling my little heart out and can't find anything.  (I can't understand why, considering it's a great university, the home of the free speech movement, and a pretty damn good football team once Tedford arrived.)  I check for one whenever I'm in a bookstore, but it's unlikely I'll find one that way in SoCal.  So I'm hoping someone will know of one I can buy online.  Thoughts?

    What a great idea! Have you tried contacting the UC Berkeley student store? You might try that or call or email UC Press (http://www.ucpress.edu/).

     

    Good luck!

    I agree - check with the student store.  They have a terrible website (so annoying - I live on the east coast so wish I did not have to visit in person every time I need a new sweatshirt...), but the store usually has a ton of options.

    Go Bears!

    @septcabride: Such a bad website!  Can we get some EECS majors on that or something?

    I can't remember if I had looked at the student store online yet, so I'll try that and see if I find anything.  Thanks, guys!  Go Bears!

    It is a horrible website, but I bet you could call and get some help!
