About Synapse

Synapse is the UCSF student-run weekly newsaper with offices in Millberry Union 123W. The paper appears on Thursdays during the academic year and monthly during the summer. Synapse is also published weekly online.

Thousands of copies of Synapse are read weekly on campuses at Parnassus and Mission Bay, as well as sites at Mission Center, Mt. Zion, and Laurel Heights. Synapse is one of the primary news sources for the rapidly developing UCSF community. All UCSF students, faculty and staff members are invited to contribute. Announcements and letters should be submitted six days before publication and can be either e-mailed, faxed, sent or dropped-off at the Synapse office. All material submitted, including letters, is subject to editing.

Synapse seeks to serve as a forum for the campus community. Articles and columns represent the views of the authors and not necessarily those of the Board of Publications or the University of California.
