Administrative History University Communications and Public Affairs (UCPA) serves the campus, the community and the news media as a source of information about the campus, about matters that affect the campus and about matters that affect American education. Its staff informs the public about teaching, research, administration, public services, and student life at the University and stays abreast of developments in government and the community that could affect the University. UCPA develops news releases, features and reports about the University. University Communications has experienced periodic reorganization since the Publications and Public Information Office (PPI) at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography moved to Urey Hall and was renamed Public Affairs. On February 1, 1965, Cy W. Greaves was appointed manager of Campus Relations which included public information, community relations, publications, and gifts and endowments. In July 1965, a Scripps office under the direction of Nelson Fuller was created. The Public Affairs Office managed public relations functions for all university units except the University Hospital of San Diego County, which maintained its own public relations office (1969), later designated as Public Information -- University Hospital (1971). After the School of Medicine (SOM) opened in 1967, a public relations office funded by SOM was created and named the School of Medicine, Public Affairs Office. In 1976, the Public Affairs Office was renamed the Public Information Office and Paul West headed the office until 1985 when he was succeeded by Winifred Cox. The office was again reorganized in the late 1980s to centralize and incorporate units of the Medical Center. The Public Information Office became known as University Communications with divisions to represent individual campus units. In 1989, the public information offices at the School of Medicine and the UCSD Medical Center were merged into a single unit called Health Sciences Communications, a division of University Communications. Clare Kristofco directed University Communications (now named University Communications and Public Affairs) from 2004 until 2017. Jeff Gattas currently leads UCPA. Scope and Content of Collection Public relations materials created and collected by University Communications, the UCSD administrative office responsible for informing the public about teaching, research, administration, public services, and student life at the University.

  • Niki De Saint Phalle's Collection in San Diego
    San Diego Boasts the Largest American Collection of Saint Phalle’s Work San Diego has played an especially significant role in Niki de Saint Phalle’s career and visitors can see more of her work here than in any other American city. In 1983, nearly a decade before she moved from France to La Jolla, the artist received her first American commission—to create Sun God for the acclaimed Stuart Collection on the campus of the University of California, San Diego. Saint Phalle’s only American sculpture garden, Queen Califia’s Magical Circle, is also located in San Diego’s North County. This is the artist’s last major international project before her death in 2002. Other large-scale sculptures are found in museums, civic spaces and private collections throughout San Diego County, the most important of which are highlighted below.

  • Stuart Collection Director
    Stuart Collection Director Organization Stuart Collection The Stuart Collection seeks to enrich the cultural, intellectual, and scholarly life of the University of California (UC) San Diego campus and of the San Diego community by building and maintaining a unique collection of site-specific works by leading contemporary artists. The collection results from innovative partnerships between the university, the Stuart Collection, and international artists under an agreement, forged in 1982 and renewed in 2003, where the entire campus may be considered as sites for commissioned sculpture and other pioneering works. The Stuart Collection is distinguished from a traditional sculpture garden by its diversity of artists, contemporary perspectives, and social relevance. It has initiated and completed an impressive range of projects in an enthusiastic partnership with the UC San Diego Department of Visual Arts and financial support from the Stuart Foundation, Friends of the Stuart Collection, National Endowment for the Arts, UC San Diego, and many other organizations, foundations, and individuals. An important factor in creating a sense of belonging and a vibrant, welcoming campus for students, faculty, and staff is the use of physical space, including the activation of outdoor spaces through culturally diverse art. In addition to the 21 existing installations, the newest project, Concordance, by artist Ann Hamilton is well underway. Embedded in a prominent campus walkway, Hamilton’s work features the writings of authors and scholars from diverse backgrounds. The writing focuses on themes such as social justice and revolution, environmental activism, technological advancement, and cultural mythology, with a feminist narrative transcribed by Kumeyaay scholars running throughout the length of the piece.

  • Sun God Finale Draws Crowd of 12,000 to RIMAC
    Is DYNES To BLAME FOR UC'S FALL FROM GRACE? .. OPINION, PAGE 4 UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SAN DIEGO www.ucsdguardian.org MONDAY, MAY 15, 2006 The Student Voice Since 1967 Sun God Finale Draws Crowd of 12,000 to RIMAC By Jaclyn Snow STAFF WRITER Traditionally known for drunken debauchery, trips to detox and a huge turnout for the concert finale, this year's Sun God proved to be no exception. Approximately 12,000 people turned out for the 26th­ annual festival concert, according to Commissioner of Programming Di Lam. -This was actually the biggest crowd we've ever seen at Sun God," Lam said -In past years, we've never had an accurate count of Sun God [attendees) since our scanners have gone down, so the numbers in past years have definitely been inflated But this year, we did do an official count" Demonstrating the reputation the festival has gained among those unaffiliated with UCSD, the 4,000 reserve tickets sold out, according to Lam. "The social scene was amazing." University of La Verne senior Ben de Arora said, "The parties were great and everyone was friendly." However, the lack of beer gardens on campus did not stop students from drinking. Officers were out all over campus, watching for intoxicated attendees. The UCSD Police Department declined to give exact figures on arrests and citations during the festival, as the figures were not yet finalized. The daytime stage featuring Lyrics Born, a San Francisco rapper with a large West Coast foUowing. attracted hundreds at Price Center with some students listening from the fountains.
