When it transmitted its first signal from an antenna atop La Jolla’s Mt. Soledad in 1993, UCSD-TV had a big vision—to become an innovative, community-serving television station. With a few dedicated staff members, some hardware, and unlimited potential stories to tell, the station began what has turned into an inspired 15-year journey.
UCSD-TV now reaches almost 1 million homes throughout the county and produces an average of 150 new programs every year in partnership with both on-campus departments and community organizations. With multiple awards under its belt, including
several Emmys and recognition from international festivals, UCSD-TV’s programming continues to flourish. The channel recently wrapped the 12th season of Opera Spotlight,
a look behind the scenes at the San Diego Opera and, in May, will premiere The Devils Breath, a heartbreaking account of the border crossers who were trapped and burned
by San Diego ’s 2007 wildfires.
