Embark on your Spartan journey by learning about SJSU’s key landmarks and the events that shaped our campus, community, and world. Learn more about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the Library’s namesake; the Victory Salute (Olympic Black Power Statue); the César E. Chávez Monument: Arch of Dignity, Equality and Justice, the Quetzalcoatl sculpture (Plumed Serpent), the Antioch Baptist Church, and Yoshihiro Uchida Hall by immersing yourself in a virtual reality environment.
