Yes you do, because part of the requirement to get the unemployment in the first place, is that you are willing, able, and actively seeking full time work. If you get a part time job, while searching, in most cases you can still qualify for partial unemployment benefits.

The states want you to be working so they will adjust your benefits accordingly as you report them (which you are required to do, by law). If the earnings are greater than your benefits allow, you would be temporarily suspended from the benefits, but could reopen the claim after the temporary job expired, depending on whether you were still in the "benefit period". Otherwise the state requires you to make earnings for some multiple of your benefits before you could reapply for new ones. As each state has different requirements, check with your state for clarification.

Can California students get unemployment benefits?

As long as you qualify for unemployment, and are looking for work, and are able to accept a job offer, you can collect unemployment. If you're not looking for a job, or your class schedule won't allow you to take a job, then you can't collect unemployment. The employment office will check your class schedule to make sure you are able to accept a job if offered one.
