Exploring Ethics: The Henrietta Lacks Series

This month UCSD-TV premieres the first program in a new series from the Center for Ethics in Science and Technology, which brings in speakers to address many of the ethical issues raised in the best-selling book, “The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks.”

Get Ready For Opera!

When San Diego Opera kicks off its 2012 season later this month with Richard Strauss’ biblical epic “Salome,” UCSD-TV will be there to capture all the action. Whether it’s quality time with the artists on “Stars in the Salon” or behind the scenes on “Opera Spotlight,” our coverage will take your opera appreciation to a new level.

And kickstart your preparation for February’s “Moby-Dick” with this fascinating conversation between composer Jake Heggie and San Diego Opera’s Ian Campbell, online now.

More Opera on UCSD-TV.

Paradise Plundered


Authors and UC San Diego political scientists Steve Erie and Vlad Kogan present a compelling narrative on how San Diego leaders have consistently mismanaged city finances since the 1978 passage of Prop 13. They continue with a bleak assessment on whether the city will ever be able to provide sufficient, equitable services throughout its economically diverse neighborhoods.

Paradise Plundered: Steve Erie, Vlad Kogan.
