Annual Paper Theatre Festival: It’s the Smallest Show on Earth!

Paper theatre, also known as tabletop or toy theatre, dates back to Victorian-era London.

These kits included scenery sheets, costumed paper dolls and condensed scripts. This vintage marketing tool and educational toy is making a comeback!UC San Diego Library plays a featured role in reviving this artful and educational hobby. On display are 25 seasons’ worth of miniature theatrical wonders, showcasing the enthusiastic work of our students, staff, alumni and community members.We are proud to host the oldest continually running paper theatre festival in the United States!An exhibition opening reception is scheduled for Tuesday, July 14, showcasing works from Scott Paulson '84, Rachel Almodovar, Elizabeth Hines, Carin Wallace, Anastasia Hunter, Christina Continelli, and visiting artist Nancy So Miller.

Explore comics, graphic novels and memoirs from UC San Diego Library's Graphic Medicine Collection: vividly drawn, personal stories about the experience of facing illness and finding care.

In these pages, a single drawing can capture what's hard to put into words, sharing insights we can see and feel. We can learn from those who've faced health challenges and witness how they found their way through.

Comics of Care is presented in connection with The Science of Story, a signature celebration of storytelling across UC San Diego. Returning for a third year during Comic-Con week, this series explores the art, craft and cultural power of narrative.

In joining that conversation, this book exhibit shows how art and stories can help us heal — by letting us into another person's experience of illness and recovery.

We hope these works deepen empathy for health struggles and spark discussion among patients, caregivers and clinicians who want to improve care. This collection was curated by UC San Diego librarians Jeffery Loo, Karen Heskett and Zemirah Ngow.

Comics of Care is on view in the Sally T. WongAvery Library breezeway from June 29 to September 13, during the building's open hours.

Located on the 2nd (main) Floor in the Exhibition Gallery and the adjacent hallway (towards Geisel Southwest), Dr. Seuss’s Boids & Beasties includes original drawings by Geisel — a long-time resident of La Jolla — and showcases his whimsical and fantastical creatures and creative talent. “Boids & Beasties” is Geisel’s own term for his fantastical creatures.

Dr. Seuss books have entertained and educated for more than half a century. In fabricating tales and bringing fantastic creatures to life in the imaginations of young and old alike, he has given us the likes of the Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, Yertle the Turtle, the Grinch, and the Lorax; we now have places to go like Solla Sollew, Who-ville and Sala-ma-Sond. His style of flamboyant, colorful illustrations, surreal surroundings, and clever yet simple rhymes have made his work recognizable throughout the world. These creations are fun, but with a serious purpose. They teach reading, self-confidence, and the wonderful possibilities of our imaginations.

Dr. Seuss's Boids & Beasties is on view at Geisel Library in the Exhibition Gallery on the 2nd (main) Floor during the building's open hours.

This training prepares you to support Wander the Wetlands, a program that welcomes the public to experience the marsh twice a month through birding, fish monitoring, and weeding.

Whether you're a seasoned naturalist or simply curious about coastal ecology, this is a great opportunity to get involved, connect with the community and share your passion for nature.
No prior knowledge is necessary, just a willingness to learn!

Docent Information

Schedule: Wander The Wetlands opens to the public from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM on the second and fourth Saturdays of the month. Docent schedule is from 8:30 AM to 11:00 AM.

Commitment: Flexible! Docents sign up for shifts at their own pace — no minimum requirement. That said, the more you show up, the bigger the impact you'll have on the community and local conservation efforts.

Activities: As a docent, you'll help lead engaging, family-friendly programs that highlight the magic of this unique coastal habitat and the ongoing efforts to restore Mission Bay. Program activities include bird walks, fish seining, invasive plant removal, nature data collection (iNaturalist and eBird), Bioblitzes, and more! The program often partners with local nonprofits and cross-border collaborators from Baja California, offering bilingual programming that reflects and welcomes our diverse community.

Accessibility: The terrain varies and may include gravel, concrete, dirt, rocky, and muddy areas depending on the activity performed.

Location: Most activities occur at UC San Diego's Kendall-Frost Marsh Field Station, with some at Crown Point. You will always be able to check the location before signing up for shifts.

Annual Paper Theatre Festival: It’s the Smallest Show on Earth!

Paper theatre, also known as tabletop or toy theatre, dates back to Victorian-era London. Families would re-enact plays they saw in miniature by cutting and pasting souvenir poster kits purchased from local playhouses. These kits included scenery sheets, costumed paper dolls and condensed scripts. This vintage marketing tool and educational toy is making a comeback!UC San Diego Library plays a featured role in reviving this artful and educational hobby. On display are 25 seasons’ worth of miniature theatrical wonders, showcasing the enthusiastic work of our students, staff, alumni and community members.We are proud to host the oldest continually running paper theatre festival in the United States!An exhibition opening reception is scheduled for Tuesday, July 14, showcasing works from Scott Paulson '84, Rachel Almodovar, Elizabeth Hines, Carin Wallace, Anastasia Hunter, Christina Continelli, and visiting artist Nancy So Miller.

Explore comics, graphic novels and memoirs from UC San Diego Library's Graphic Medicine Collection: vividly drawn, personal stories about the experience of facing illness and finding care.

In these pages, a single drawing can capture what's hard to put into words, sharing insights we can see and feel. We can learn from those who've faced health challenges and witness how they found their way through.

Comics of Care is presented in connection with The Science of Story, a signature celebration of storytelling across UC San Diego. Returning for a third year during Comic-Con week, this series explores the art, craft and cultural power of narrative.

In joining that conversation, this book exhibit shows how art and stories can help us heal — by letting us into another person's experience of illness and recovery.

We hope these works deepen empathy for health struggles and spark discussion among patients, caregivers and clinicians who want to improve care. This collection was curated by UC San Diego librarians Jeffery Loo, Karen Heskett and Zemirah Ngow.

Comics of Care is on view in the Sally T. WongAvery Library breezeway from June 29 to September 13, during the building's open hours.

Located on the 2nd (main) Floor in the Exhibition Gallery and the adjacent hallway (towards Geisel Southwest), Dr. Seuss’s Boids & Beasties includes original drawings by Geisel — a long-time resident of La Jolla — and showcases his whimsical and fantastical creatures and creative talent. “Boids & Beasties” is Geisel’s own term for his fantastical creatures.

Dr. Seuss books have entertained and educated for more than half a century. In fabricating tales and bringing fantastic creatures to life in the imaginations of young and old alike, he has given us the likes of the Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, Yertle the Turtle, the Grinch, and the Lorax; we now have places to go like Solla Sollew, Who-ville and Sala-ma-Sond. His style of flamboyant, colorful illustrations, surreal surroundings, and clever yet simple rhymes have made his work recognizable throughout the world. These creations are fun, but with a serious purpose. They teach reading, self-confidence, and the wonderful possibilities of our imaginations.

Dr. Seuss's Boids & Beasties is on view at Geisel Library in the Exhibition Gallery on the 2nd (main) Floor during the building's open hours.

ABOUT THE DR. SEUSS COLLECTION

UC San Diego’s Dr. Seuss Collection contains original drawings, sketches, proofs, notebooks, manuscript drafts, books, audio and videotapes, photographs, and memorabilia.

In this second part of our series on Batch Computing, we will introduce you to the concept of a distributed batch job scheduler — what they are, why they exist, and how they work — using the Slurm Workload Manager as our reference implementation and testbed. You will then learn how to write your first job script and submit it to an HPC System running Slurm as its scheduler. We will also discuss the best practices for how to structure your batch job scripts, teach you how to leverage Slurm environment variables, and provide tips on how to request resources from the scheduler to get your work done faster.

To complete the exercises covered in Part II, you will need access to an HPC system running the Slurm Workload Manager as its batch job scheduler.

Families would re-enact plays they saw in miniature by cutting and pasting souvenir poster kits purchased from local playhouses. These kits included scenery sheets, costumed paper dolls and condensed scripts. This vintage marketing tool and educational toy is making a comeback!UC San Diego Library plays a featured role in reviving this artful and educational hobby. On display are 25 seasons’ worth of miniature theatrical wonders, showcasing the enthusiastic work of our students, staff, alumni and community members.We are proud to host the oldest continually running paper theatre festival in the United States!An exhibition opening reception is scheduled for Tuesday, July 14, showcasing works from Scott Paulson '84, Rachel Almodovar, Elizabeth Hines, Carin Wallace, Anastasia Hunter, Christina Continelli, and visiting artist Nancy So Miller.

Explore comics, graphic novels and memoirs from UC San Diego Library's Graphic Medicine Collection: vividly drawn, personal stories about the experience of facing illness and finding care.

In these pages, a single drawing can capture what's hard to put into words, sharing insights we can see and feel. We can learn from those who've faced health challenges and witness how they found their way through.

Comics of Care is presented in connection with The Science of Story, a signature celebration of storytelling across UC San Diego. Returning for a third year during Comic-Con week, this series explores the art, craft and cultural power of narrative.

In joining that conversation, this book exhibit shows how art and stories can help us heal — by letting us into another person's experience of illness and recovery.

We hope these works deepen empathy for health struggles and spark discussion among patients, caregivers and clinicians who want to improve care. This collection was curated by UC San Diego librarians Jeffery Loo, Karen Heskett and Zemirah Ngow.

Comics of Care is on view in the Sally T. WongAvery Library breezeway from June 29 to September 13, during the building's open hours.

Located on the 2nd (main) Floor in the Exhibition Gallery and the adjacent hallway (towards Geisel Southwest), Dr. Seuss’s Boids & Beasties includes original drawings by Geisel — a long-time resident of La Jolla — and showcases his whimsical and fantastical creatures and creative talent. “Boids & Beasties” is Geisel’s own term for his fantastical creatures.

Dr. Seuss books have entertained and educated for more than half a century. In fabricating tales and bringing fantastic creatures to life in the imaginations of young and old alike, he has given us the likes of the Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, Yertle the Turtle, the Grinch, and the Lorax; we now have places to go like Solla Sollew, Who-ville and Sala-ma-Sond. His style of flamboyant, colorful illustrations, surreal surroundings, and clever yet simple rhymes have made his work recognizable throughout the world. These creations are fun, but with a serious purpose. They teach reading, self-confidence, and the wonderful possibilities of our imaginations.

Annual Paper Theatre Festival: It’s the Smallest Show on Earth!

Paper theatre, also known as tabletop or toy theatre, dates back to Victorian-era London. Families would re-enact plays they saw in miniature by cutting and pasting souvenir poster kits purchased from local playhouses. These kits included scenery sheets, costumed paper dolls and condensed scripts. This vintage marketing tool and educational toy is making a comeback!UC San Diego Library plays a featured role in reviving this artful and educational hobby. On display are 25 seasons’ worth of miniature theatrical wonders, showcasing the enthusiastic work of our students, staff, alumni and community members.We are proud to host the oldest continually running paper theatre festival in the United States!An exhibition opening reception is scheduled for Tuesday, July 14, showcasing works from Scott Paulson '84, Rachel Almodovar, Elizabeth Hines, Carin Wallace, Anastasia Hunter, Christina Continelli, and visiting artist Nancy So Miller.

Explore comics, graphic novels and memoirs from UC San Diego Library's Graphic Medicine Collection: vividly drawn, personal stories about the experience of facing illness and finding care.

In these pages, a single drawing can capture what's hard to put into words, sharing insights we can see and feel. We can learn from those who've faced health challenges and witness how they found their way through.

Comics of Care is presented in connection with The Science of Story, a signature celebration of storytelling across UC San Diego. Returning for a third year during Comic-Con week, this series explores the art, craft and cultural power of narrative.

In joining that conversation, this book exhibit shows how art and stories can help us heal — by letting us into another person's experience of illness and recovery.

We hope these works deepen empathy for health struggles and spark discussion among patients, caregivers and clinicians who want to improve care. This collection was curated by UC San Diego librarians Jeffery Loo, Karen Heskett and Zemirah Ngow.

Comics of Care is on view in the Sally T. WongAvery Library breezeway from June 29 to September 13, during the building's open hours.

Located on the 2nd (main) Floor in the Exhibition Gallery and the adjacent hallway (towards Geisel Southwest), Dr. Seuss’s Boids & Beasties includes original drawings by Geisel — a long-time resident of La Jolla — and showcases his whimsical and fantastical creatures and creative talent. “Boids & Beasties” is Geisel’s own term for his fantastical creatures.

Dr. Seuss books have entertained and educated for more than half a century. In fabricating tales and bringing fantastic creatures to life in the imaginations of young and old alike, he has given us the likes of the Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, Yertle the Turtle, the Grinch, and the Lorax; we now have places to go like Solla Sollew, Who-ville and Sala-ma-Sond. His style of flamboyant, colorful illustrations, surreal surroundings, and clever yet simple rhymes have made his work recognizable throughout the world. These creations are fun, but with a serious purpose. They teach reading, self-confidence, and the wonderful possibilities of our imaginations.

Annual Paper Theatre Festival: It’s the Smallest Show on Earth!

These kits included scenery sheets, costumed paper dolls and condensed scripts. This vintage marketing tool and educational toy is making a comeback!UC San Diego Library plays a featured role in reviving this artful and educational hobby. On display are 25 seasons’ worth of miniature theatrical wonders, showcasing the enthusiastic work of our students, staff, alumni and community members.We are proud to host the oldest continually running paper theatre festival in the United States!An exhibition opening reception is scheduled for Tuesday, July 14, showcasing works from Scott Paulson '84, Rachel Almodovar, Elizabeth Hines, Carin Wallace, Anastasia Hunter, Christina Continelli, and visiting artist Nancy So Miller.

Explore comics, graphic novels and memoirs from UC San Diego Library's Graphic Medicine Collection: vividly drawn, personal stories about the experience of facing illness and finding care.

In these pages, a single drawing can capture what's hard to put into words, sharing insights we can see and feel. We can learn from those who've faced health challenges and witness how they found their way through.

Comics of Care is presented in connection with The Science of Story, a signature celebration of storytelling across UC San Diego. Returning for a third year during Comic-Con week, this series explores the art, craft and cultural power of narrative.

In joining that conversation, this book exhibit shows how art and stories can help us heal — by letting us into another person's experience of illness and recovery.

We hope these works deepen empathy for health struggles and spark discussion among patients, caregivers and clinicians who want to improve care. This collection was curated by UC San Diego librarians Jeffery Loo, Karen Heskett and Zemirah Ngow.

Comics of Care is on view in the Sally T. WongAvery Library breezeway from June 29 to September 13, during the building's open hours.

Located on the 2nd (main) Floor in the Exhibition Gallery and the adjacent hallway (towards Geisel Southwest), Dr. Seuss’s Boids & Beasties includes original drawings by Geisel — a long-time resident of La Jolla — and showcases his whimsical and fantastical creatures and creative talent. “Boids & Beasties” is Geisel’s own term for his fantastical creatures.

Dr. Seuss books have entertained and educated for more than half a century. In fabricating tales and bringing fantastic creatures to life in the imaginations of young and old alike, he has given us the likes of the Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, Yertle the Turtle, the Grinch, and the Lorax; we now have places to go like Solla Sollew, Who-ville and Sala-ma-Sond. His style of flamboyant, colorful illustrations, surreal surroundings, and clever yet simple rhymes have made his work recognizable throughout the world. These creations are fun, but with a serious purpose. They teach reading, self-confidence, and the wonderful possibilities of our imaginations.

Dr. Seuss's Boids & Beasties is on view at Geisel Library in the Exhibition Gallery on the 2nd (main) Floor during the building's open hours.

In joining that conversation, this book exhibit shows how art and stories can help us heal — by letting us into another person's experience of illness and recovery.

We hope these works deepen empathy for health struggles and spark discussion among patients, caregivers and clinicians who want to improve care. This collection was curated by UC San Diego librarians Jeffery Loo, Karen Heskett and Zemirah Ngow.

Comics of Care is on view in the Sally T. WongAvery Library breezeway from June 29 to September 13, during the building's open hours.

Located on the 2nd (main) Floor in the Exhibition Gallery and the adjacent hallway (towards Geisel Southwest), Dr. Seuss’s Boids & Beasties includes original drawings by Geisel — a long-time resident of La Jolla — and showcases his whimsical and fantastical creatures and creative talent. “Boids & Beasties” is Geisel’s own term for his fantastical creatures.

Dr. Seuss books have entertained and educated for more than half a century. In fabricating tales and bringing fantastic creatures to life in the imaginations of young and old alike, he has given us the likes of the Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, Yertle the Turtle, the Grinch, and the Lorax; we now have places to go like Solla Sollew, Who-ville and Sala-ma-Sond. His style of flamboyant, colorful illustrations, surreal surroundings, and clever yet simple rhymes have made his work recognizable throughout the world. These creations are fun, but with a serious purpose. They teach reading, self-confidence, and the wonderful possibilities of our imaginations.

Julio A. Aguirre-Ghiso, PhD is the Rose C. Falkenstein Chair in Cancer Research, Professor of Cell Biology and Medicine and Founding Director of the Cancer Dormancy Institute at the Montefiore Einstein Comprehensive Cancer Center (MECCC) in New York City, where he also co-directs the Gruss-Lipper Biophotonics Center and the Tumor Microenvironment and Metastasis Program at the MECCC. Dr. Aguirre-Ghiso received his PhD from the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1997 and was a Charles H. Revson post-doctoral Fellow at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (ISMMS) until 2003. The same year he became an Assistant Professor at SUNY-Albany/Wadsworth Center and since 2008 he was at ISMMS where he grew through the ranks becoming Professor in 2014 and Endowed Mount Sinai Chair of Cancer Biology in 2020. His research team led a paradigm shift, revealing novel cancer biology that diverges from the notion that cancer is perpetually proliferating. His team discovered how interactions between disseminated tumor cells and their microenvironment regulate the switch between dormancy and metastasis initiation. His lab also provided a mechanistic understanding of the process of early dissemination and revealed how it contributes to dormancy and metastatic progression and how stress adaptive pathways allow cancer cells to persist while quiescent. His work highlighted a new role for myeloid cells in cancer dissemination and lung cancer initiationand his team found that an unexpected function of innate immune cells is to induce dormancy to prevent metastasis. His current research examines dormancy in rare cancers like uveal melanoma and how factors such as aging, viral infections, and clonal hematopoiesis trigger dormant cancer cells to awaken and metastasize. His research, published in top journals, is highly cited, ranking him among the top 1-5% of scientists by h-index. He has served and actively advises different scientific and industry entities and scientific journals via advisory board or scientific council membership such as the NIH study sections where he was elected as a permanent member, the Pershing Square Sohn Research Alliance, Cancer Cell and the Scientific Council of the French National Cancer Institute. He served as President Elect and then President of the Metastasis Research Society from 2018-2022 and has served at several leadership levels at AACR amongother organizations. In 2019, he founded HiberCell, a company developing therapies targeting stress signaling pathways to eliminate both proliferative and dormant cancer cells. This led to two FDA fast-tracked drugs. He also repurposed FDA-approved drugs for an innovative early metastatic prostate cancer trial. These achievements demonstrate his impact from basic to clinical sciences.

In these pages, a single drawing can capture what's hard to put into words, sharing insights we can see and feel. We can learn from those who've faced health challenges and witness how they found their way through.

Comics of Care is presented in connection with The Science of Story, a signature celebration of storytelling across UC San Diego. Returning for a third year during Comic-Con week, this series explores the art, craft and cultural power of narrative.

In joining that conversation, this book exhibit shows how art and stories can help us heal — by letting us into another person's experience of illness and recovery.

We hope these works deepen empathy for health struggles and spark discussion among patients, caregivers and clinicians who want to improve care. This collection was curated by UC San Diego librarians Jeffery Loo, Karen Heskett and Zemirah Ngow.

Comics of Care is on view in the Sally T. WongAvery Library breezeway from June 29 to September 13, during the building's open hours.

Located on the 2nd (main) Floor in the Exhibition Gallery and the adjacent hallway (towards Geisel Southwest), Dr. Seuss’s Boids & Beasties includes original drawings by Geisel — a long-time resident of La Jolla — and showcases his whimsical and fantastical creatures and creative talent. “Boids & Beasties” is Geisel’s own term for his fantastical creatures.

Dr. Seuss books have entertained and educated for more than half a century. In fabricating tales and bringing fantastic creatures to life in the imaginations of young and old alike, he has given us the likes of the Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, Yertle the Turtle, the Grinch, and the Lorax; we now have places to go like Solla Sollew, Who-ville and Sala-ma-Sond. His style of flamboyant, colorful illustrations, surreal surroundings, and clever yet simple rhymes have made his work recognizable throughout the world. These creations are fun, but with a serious purpose. They teach reading, self-confidence, and the wonderful possibilities of our imaginations.

Annual Paper Theatre Festival: It’s the Smallest Show on Earth!

Paper theatre, also known as tabletop or toy theatre, dates back to Victorian-era London. Families would re-enact plays they saw in miniature by cutting and pasting souvenir poster kits purchased from local playhouses. These kits included scenery sheets, costumed paper dolls and condensed scripts.

Located on the 2nd (main) Floor in the Exhibition Gallery and the adjacent hallway (towards Geisel Southwest), Dr. Seuss’s Boids & Beasties includes original drawings by Geisel — a long-time resident of La Jolla — and showcases his whimsical and fantastical creatures and creative talent. “Boids & Beasties” is Geisel’s own term for his fantastical creatures.

Dr. Seuss books have entertained and educated for more than half a century. In fabricating tales and bringing fantastic creatures to life in the imaginations of young and old alike, he has given us the likes of the Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, Yertle the Turtle, the Grinch, and the Lorax; we now have places to go like Solla Sollew, Who-ville and Sala-ma-Sond. His style of flamboyant, colorful illustrations, surreal surroundings, and clever yet simple rhymes have made his work recognizable throughout the world. These creations are fun, but with a serious purpose. They teach reading, self-confidence, and the wonderful possibilities of our imaginations.

Dr. Seuss's Boids & Beasties is on view at Geisel Library in the Exhibition Gallery on the 2nd (main) Floor during the building's open hours.

What far fewer people realize is what happens after that training and why an entirely new industry has emerged around making AI smarter, more reliable and more useful.

Join the UC San Diego AI Alumni Council for a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the hidden human expertise shaping today's frontier AI models.

We'll hear from leaders at Handshake AI and Databricks, two companies working at different layers of the AI ecosystem. At Handshake AI, expert networks are helping create the high-quality post-training data that teaches models to reason more effectively, follow complex instructions and perform specialized tasks. At Databricks, enterprises are learning how to evaluate, monitor and deploy AI systems responsibly in real-world business environments.

Together, we'll explore questions that almost everyone asks but few people can answer:

Why do AI models keep getting better?Who actually teaches and evaluates today's frontier models?Why is high-quality human expertise becoming one of AI's most valuable resources?How do organizations measure AI quality before trusting it in production?What new career opportunities are emerging as AI creates demand for expert reviewers, evaluators, and domain specialists?Whether you're an AI practitioner, business leader, student or simply curious about what's happening behind the scenes, you'll gain an insider's perspective on one of the fastest-growing — and least understood — parts of the AI revolution.

Featuring Sahil Bhaiwala, Chief Strategy & Innovation Officer at Handshake AI, and Anjana Sriram, Solutions Engineer at Databricks and UC San Diego alumna. Sahil leads Handshake AI's long-term strategy and innovation roadmap, bringing prior leadership experience from Scale AI's rapidly growing GenAI data business.

Malian guitarist Vieux Farka Touré has earned international acclaim for his electrifying stage presence and singular blend of desert blues, rock, and West African traditions. His collaborations with Dave Matthews, Derek Trucks, John Scofield, and Khruangbin reflect a career that moves easily across genres and traditions, underscoring his place as a leading voice in contemporary global music.

The son of Ali Farka Touré, one of Mali’s most revered artists, he continues a remarkable legacy while forging a distinctive path of his own. Part of our season opening weekend, Touré returns after a sold-out 2022 performance at The Loft, combining irresistible rhythms, joyful energy, and the kind of musicianship that turns first-time listeners into devoted fans.
