Parnassus Proud
These photographs displayed in Saunders Court celebrate the incredible work that happens every day on the campus ––from exceptional health education, to groundbreaking scientific discoveries, to outstanding health care provided at a top-ranked hospital.
The Parnassus campus is the original site of the colleges that evolved into today’s UCSF. Situated at the foot of Mount Sutro, the campus is a San Francisco landmark, with views that stretch from the ocean to the city’s iconic skyline.

Pursuing Grand Challenges in Health
Our 2018 shuttle fleet campaign supports a selection of grand challenge themes from the current fundraising campaign, designed for the medium as quick-comprehension impact statements.
Grand challenges are the culmination of everything we do, and a reminder that it's a remarkable time to be part of UCSF.

One UCSF: A Brilliant Convergence
A Brilliant Convergence' launched in Fall 2016 as the second phase of One UCSF. The campaign uses Venn diagrams to illustrate the coming together of people, diverse perspectives and qualities, and unique ideas that enables UCSF to redefine what’s possible. Ads appear on the UCSF shuttle fleet and at shuttle stops. The concept will be incorporated into employee engagement activities throughout the year.

One UCSF: Launch Campaign
We are a diverse community, made up of people with many skills and talents. And throughout all that we do, there is a core belief that our work makes a difference and that, together, we can – and will – improve the future of health.
The One UCSF campaign launched in March 2015 to inspire faculty, staff and students to share stories of how they contribute to achieving UCSF’s mission of advancing health worldwide. A series of stories were developed (video and web) to demonstrate individuals' contributions, and ads appeared on the UCSF shuttle fleet, at shuttle stops, and on posters and banners throughout UCSF campuses.
