The University and Jepson Herbaria (https://ucjeps.berkeley.edu/) is located at the ground level of the Valley Life Sciences building on the UC Berkeley campus, adjacent to both the VLSB library as well as the infamous, towering T. Rex skeleton. As an undergraduate Berkeley senior soon to graduate this spring, I had never noticed this museum, despite having numerous classes in the same building.
