| - San José State University, commonly shortened to San José State or SJSU, is the founding campus of what became the California State University system. The urban campus has an enrollment of about 30,000 students and claims to have more graduates working in Silicon Valley than any other college or university.
- The San Jose State Spartans is the name of the athletic teams representing San Jose State University. SJSU sports teams compete in the Western Athletic Conference (WAC) at the NCAA Division I level. (Football Bowl Subdivision formally known as Division 1-A for football.) The university has participated in athletics since it first fielded a baseball team in 1890. San Jose State University sports teams have won NCAA titles in track and field, cross country, golf, and boxing. As of 2010, SJSU has won 10 NCAA team championships and produced 52 NCAA Division 1 individual champions. SJSU also has achieved an international reputation for its judo program, winning 45 collegiate judo national championships in 51 years (as of 2012). SJSU alumni have won 19 Olympic medals (including seven gold medals) dating back to the first gold medal won by Willie Steel in track and field in the 1948 Olympics. Alumni also have won medals in swimming, judo and boxing. The legendary track team coached by "Bud" Winter earned San Jose the nickname "Speed City," and produced Olympic medalists and social activists Lee Evans, John Carlos and Tommie Smith. Smith and Carlos are perhaps best remembered for giving the raised fist salute from the medalist's podium during the 1968 Summer Olympic Games in Mexico City. As of 2010, current head coaches from the women’s golf, women’s gymnastics, men's soccer, and women's soccer programs had all received conference “Coach of the Year” honors.
