Golden Gate University traces its origins to an evening lecture series started by the San Francisco YMCA during the California gold rush in the early 1850s. Even then, lectures focused on practical issues of the day such as gold assaying and English. The first degree-conferring program of the university started in 1901, with the formation of California’s first evening law school. By offering classes at night, Golden Gate made legal studies available to the common person. Four students comprised the law school’s first graduating class. Today, Golden Gate University is a leader in graduate and undergraduate education in business and management, information technology, taxation and law. As always, GGU emphasizes hands-on learning taught by professionals practicing in the field. Campuses and teaching sites are located in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Monterey Bay, Sacramento, San Jose, Seattle, and Walnut Creek. Additionally online through Golden Gate University’s nationally recognized CyberCampus.
