History 校史 On September 18, 1950, the Los Angeles Baptist Association opened the doors of California Baptist College in El Monte to 120 students who came seeking a liberal arts education in a Christian environment. In 1955, after four years of continued growth, the college relocated to larger facilities in Riverside. 1950年9月18日，洛杉机浸信协会为120多名为了寻求在基督教环境下自由艺术教育的学生开办了艾尔蒙特加州浸会学院。经过四年的成长，1955年，加州浸会学院扩大了规模重新选址于河滨市。 Today, the Spanish-style buildings, which include classrooms, campus housing, a library, offices, maintenance and athletic facilities are located on the 105 acre campus. Growth in all areas paved the way for the institution to become a university on September 25, 1998. California Baptist University continues the tradition of liberal arts education in a Christian environment. 如今，占地105多英亩的校园里座落着西班牙风格的建筑，其中有教室，学生公寓，图书馆，办公室，日常活动场所以及运动设施。全方面的发展为学校的由学院成长为综合性大学铺平了道路，1998年9月25日，加州浸会学院正式更名为加州浸会大学，并继续保持着在基督教环境下进行自由艺术教育的传统。 HISTORICAL DATA 历史数据 1921 - Building that currently houses the Annie
