On Dec. 2, 1915, representatives from the University of Oregon, the University of Washington, Oregon State University, and the University of California-Berkeley came together to create an athletics conference devoted to both academic and athletic excellence. Today the Pac-12 comprises 12 leading universities that span the Western United States and boasts more national championships than any other conference.
