Johnson holds a [[Bachelor of Arts|B.A.]] in [[political science]] from U.C. Berkeley that he completed after his initial retirement from the NBA. Since founding St. HOPE in 1989, Johnson has been active in education reform. As Mayor of Sacramento, Johnson launched two education initiatives: Stand UP and Sacramento READS!, to benefit students in Sacramento. Johnson also helped to deter the [[Sacramento Kings]] basketball team from moving to Anaheim, and, later, to Seattle, Washington.

Johnson accepted a scholarship to play basketball for the [[University of California, Berkeley]]. As a four-year starter, Johnson ended his college career in 1987 as the school's all-time leader in assists (since eclipsed by [[Jason Kidd]]), steals, and scoring (since eclipsed by [[Lamond Murray]], [[Sean Lampley]], [[Patrick Christopher]], [[Joe Shipp]] and [[Jerome Randle]]).<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.calbears.com/documents/2016/11/11/2016_Cal_Info_GUide.pdf|title = 2016 MBB Record Book}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url= http://igs.berkeley.edu/people/nac/johnson.html|title=Kevin Johnson|date=August 16, 2012|publisher= IGS National Advisory Council}}</ref> Johnson was named to the [[List of All-Pacific-12 Conference men's basketball teams|Pac-10's All-Conference]] First Team in his junior and senior seasons, averaging 17.2 points and 5 assists in his final year.
