TEACHING + LEARNING COMMONS

The Teaching + Learning Commons is constantly innovating and evolving in order to best prepare students and faculty as the next generation of changemaking thinkers and leaders. The Commons serves upwards of 12,000 students annually, with more than 170,000 total visits last year, quickly becoming the heart of campus and its student experience. 

Your support today allows us to offer meaningful spaces and opportunities for all students to reach their full potential at UC San Diego and beyond. Your donation to the Commons this Triton Giving Day will allow us to: 

  • Deepen our commitment to teaching, learning and accountable action 
  • Challenge systemic racism and eliminate equity gaps 
  • Fully engage our campus and community partners to discover and advance educational access, learning experiences and lifelong success 

The Teaching + Learning Commons directly supports and enhances student and faculty success through transformative, evidence-based teaching and learning practices designed and delivered through a social justice/racial equity lens. Through these activities, we advance the success of all Tritons and reduce educational equity gaps.
