SF State’s curriculum — embracing the local, regional and international — prepares students for an increasingly global culture in which they will influence contemporary spaces, media, and social interactions. We educate students for life in an increasingly complex world, rich with diversity and replete with challenges, in which they will make a difference by offering their vision to lead others.
College of Liberal & Creative Arts Stories
The Nasiri Foundation supports a new film produced by San Francisco State’s Documentary Film Institute and Center for Iranian Diaspora Studies.
SF State recently received a generous gift of archival comic books from donor Virginia Rue. The collection will be used for research in Professor Nick Sousanis' classes on culture and graphic novels.
In 2017, Seira Yasumatsu won a $8,000 scholarship funded by Sodexo. The award helped her to meet the challenge of supporting her 2-year old daughter while focusing on academics. Months later, a product she designed won a prestigious award.
San Francisco State University’s Queer Cinema Project (QCP), a program that encourages the production, study and promotion of queer cinema, received a $50,000 matching grant from the Jonathan Logan Family Foundation, a philanthropic organization that aims to advance social justice endeavors by supporting works in journalism, the arts, the environment, documentary film and more.
