Audio Description
Closed Captioned
On the Same Page gives new students (and faculty and staff) at Berkeley something in common to talk about: a work that has changed the way we view the world. This year’s work, selected especially for the Fall 2024 incoming class, is the film Oppenheimer.
Christopher Nolan’s Academy Award–winning film chronicles the spectacular rise and fall of J. Robert Oppenheimer’s career, from his arrival to teach at UC Berkeley in 1929 through his stewardship of the development of the atomic bomb and the ensuing fallout.
These screenings are only open to UC Berkeley students, staff, and faculty as part of the On the Same Page program. Free tickets will be available at the admissions desk one hour prior to showtime. Attendees must present their Cal 1 Card to receive their ticket.
