Reconocimiento de Tierra
La comunidad de UC San Diego guarda un gran respeto por la tierra y la cultura original del área donde el día de hoy se encuentra edificado nuestro campus. La universidad está construida en un territorio que no fue cedido por la Nación Kumeyaay. Hoy, el pueblo Kumeyaay continúa manteniendo su soberanía política y tradiciones culturales como miembros esenciales de la comunidad de San Diego. Reconocemos sus importantes contribuciones a nuestra región y les agradecemos su administración.
Land Acknowledgement
The UC San Diego community holds great respect for the land and the original people of the area where our campus is located. The university is built on the un-ceded territory of the Kumeyaay Nation.

We acknowledge their tremendous contributions to our region and thank them for their stewardship.
