The Scripps Institution
UC San Diego has its origins in the early 20th century when zoologists at UC Berkeley wanted to establish a marine station on the Pacific ocean.In 1909, land in La Jolla was donated by E. W. Scripps and E. B. Scripps. The facility was called the Scripps Institution of Marine Biology. In 1960, when the Regents decided to name the general campus the University of California, San Diego, they voted that the Scripps school be known as University of California's Scripps Institution of Oceanography, La Jolla.
The institution is known as the foremost center of oceanographic research and instruction in the world.University of California: Archives
