If you want to be a history teacher in CA (single subject), then a Bachelor's in History followed by a teaching credential program would be the way to go. I see no reason not to get your bachelor's from one of the Big3. My daughter, who wants to be a H.S. English teacher, just finished her BA in English Lit, and is starting a teaching credential program next fall. She had to fulfill a couple of extra prereq courses specific to the program (which is a nuisance since she's applying to two different programs and they have different prereq courses) and pass the CSET and CBEST to prior to starting the teaching credential program.
If you want to be a special Ed teacher, there are some other hoops to jump through.
