Summary Description

Synapse is the student-run campus newspaper. Published weekly during the academic year, Synapse serves as a forum for the campus community and plays a vital role of strengthening the fabric of a widely-dispersed campus community by providing news about UCSF, and in particular, student life, that cannot be found anywhere else.

Synapse audiences benefit from a high-quality publication that reinforces a sense of community and school spirit. Students who work at the newspaper also benefit — by learning a variety of skills that will assist them later in their health science careers, including organizing their thoughts to tell a good story, writing in a clear and concise manner, and executing on deadline.

All UCSF students and affiliates are welcome to submit an article to our publication. Once a piece is reviewed, it is scheduled for future publication on our website and in the weekly newsletter, which is electronically distributed each Tuesday during the academic year.
