She names specific people who she met at Berkeley as geniuses:
As a mathematician who studied at Berkeley, Harvard and Princeton, I’ve known geniuses. I got to hang out with Andrew Wiles, who is credited with solving Fermat’s Last Theorem, and I met Grigori Perelman, who solved the Poincare Conjecture.
I don't think she means that everyone she met at Berkeley was a genius.
