Construction on the Koret Center began in 1987 on the former site of Saint Ignatius High School. When Saint Ignatius High School departed in 1969; the University renamed the building Loyola Hall.[17] The Koret Center opened in 1989, with final construction costs totalling 22 million dollars.[17] Many colleges and universities across the nation have recently followed suit by building expensive, brand new athletic facilities to keep up with increasing demand for such facilities from incoming students and student-athletes.[18] The Koret Center was named for Joseph and Susan Koret of the Koret Foundation, a San Francisco philanthropic group that was the primary donor to the construction of the center.[17][19] The Koret Center sports an Olympic-sized swimming pool, four basketball courts, seven volleyball courts, one racquetball courts, numerous cardiovascular machines, a 3,200-square-foot (300 m2) weight room with an array of high-performance resistance-training machines and free weights, dance studio, aerobics studio, student lounge with a flatscreen plasma television and ping pong and billiards tables, equipment rental desk, and fully equipped men's and women's locker rooms.[20] There are many free weekly classes, such as spinning, yoga, pilates, "abs & glutes", and self-defense, and for extra fees, the Koret Center offers personal training, massages, CPR classes, and swimming lessons.[21] The Koret Center is also home to the USF intramural sports department, and hosts games for intramural basketball, volleyball, and indoor soccer. The building has photovoltaic panels that, along with the panels on other buildings around campus, contribute 16 percent of the lower campus' peak electricity needs.[22] The Koret Center is regarded as one of the finest athletic training centers in San Francisco, and in 2001 it won the "Best Gym and Pool" award from SF Weekly magazine.[23] Aside from serving the USF student and faculty communities, the Koret Center sells memberships to residents in surrounding neighborhoods. It also rents gym space to local youth and high school basketball and volleyball teams, and is willing to volunteer its space and services to some outside groups. For example, it hosted the swimming, basketball, and volleyball competitions for the 2008 International Children's Games that were held in San Francisco.[24] Negoesco Stadium(NS) - Named after alumnus Steve Negoesco, who coached four championship men's soccer teams.

Saint Ignatius Church (SI) - Often mistaken as San Francisco's Roman Catholic cathedral, the church was designed by architect Charles J. I. Devlin in 1909, as the fifth Saint Ignatius Church in San Francisco.

It is the University's spiritual home as well as a parish church for the surrounding community.[25] Residence life[edit] The University of San Francisco provides on-campus housing for freshmen and sophomores, with independent living options for upper-division students.

The residential facility consists of two buildings (Fulton House and Fulton House Cottage), which houses approximately 12 upper-division students.[32] Loyola Village (LV) - The university once lacked sufficient housing units for faculty and staff, and therefore, opened Loyola Village in 2002, which currently houses upper-division students as well as staff. It is a 136-unit independent living residence, located on the northern outskirt of campus.[33] Ecological activism[edit] In Fall 2007, the Garden Project (a Living Learning Community) was formed based around the creating and maintaining of the Campus' first Organic Garden. Initially headed by Media Studies Professor, Filmmaker, and Organic Gardner Melinda Stone and Architecture Professor Seth Watchel, the Garden houses fruits, vegetables, and herbs with the help and continuous care provided by students and community members, alike.[34]

体育培养
USF competes in the NCAA's Division I and is a charter member of the West Coast Conference, along with local rivals Santa Clara University and Saint Mary's College of California. Sports offered are men’s and women's basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, tennis, track and field, as well as men’s baseball and women's volleyball. USF has won 12 NCAA championships, 1 NIT championships, and 42 WCC championships.[citation needed] USF’s mascot is the Don and its colors are green and gold. History[edit] Athletics at USF dates back to its founding in 1855, when founder Anthony Maraschi, S.J. organized ball games as recreation for the first students. However, intercollegiate competition only dates back to 1907, when then St. Ignatius College began playing organized baseball, basketball, and rugby against other local colleges and high schools. Rivalries with neighboring Santa Clara University and Saint Mary's College of California have their origins in this early period. 1951 USF Dons Football Team[edit] The 1951 University of San Francisco Dons football team, coached by Joe Kuharich, went undefeated, with a record of 9-0, and the team produced ten future NFL players (Ollie Matson, Gino Marchetti, Bob St. Clair, Dick Stanfel, Ed Brown, Lou Stephens, Burl Toler, Joe Scudero, Roy Barni, Mike Mergen, Merrill Peacock, and Ralph Thomas). Five became NFL Pro-Bowlers, and Gino Marchetti, Ollie Matson, and Bob St. Clair later were inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame—a record for one college team. The team also had another first; Burl Toler became the first African American official in the NFL.[89] Future NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle played a role as the Dons' Athletic Publicist. At the height of their success, the team experienced one of the greatest snubs in college football history. Due to the team having two African-American star players, Ollie Matson and Burl Toler, they were not invited to play in any of the college football bowl games hosted by the SEC (Southern Conference).[90] This resulted in the team being invited to the Orange Bowl without Toler and Matson. The team refused the invitation. Guard Dick Columbini said "'No, we're not going to leave ‘em at home’ ... ‘We're going to play with ‘em or we’re not going to play.’"[89] As a result of the team's refusal to play in the Orange Bowl, the USF Athletic Department was forced to drop its football program in 1952, due to a deficit in department funds. Basketball[edit] Former interior of War Memorial Gym Main article: San Francisco Dons men's basketball USF is best known for its men's basketball program. The men's team won three national championships: the 1949 NIT Championship, with Don Lofgran as MVP, and the 1955 and 1956 NCAA National Championships, going undefeated in the 1956 season. Led by NBA Hall of Famers Bill Russell and K.C. Jones, the 1956 Dons became the first undefeated team to win a national championship, winning a then-record 60 games in a row from 1954 to 1956 before losing an exhibition game to the USA Men's Olympic Basketball team. Also of note, the 1954-1955 USF basketball teams became the first major college or university basketball team to win a national title with three African American starters (Russell, Jones, and Hal Perry).[15] On December 26, 2007, the university hired 798-win coach Eddie Sutton to replace Jessie Evans. Sutton got his 800th career win as a college basketball head coach when the Dons beat Pepperdine, 85-82. On April 18, 2008, USF announced the hiring of Rex Walters, former coach of Florida Atlantic University, as the new men's basketball coach, succeeding Eddie Sutton.[91] Walters is an NBA veteran, originally the 16th overall pick by the New Jersey Nets in the 1993 NBA Draft.[91] Soccer[edit] Main article: San Francisco Dons men's soccer The soccer program began at USF in 1931, from the beginning it has been a successful program, winning five titles from 1932–1936, much of this was because of the All-American team captain Gus Donoghue who later returned to the University as the head coach in 1946, he won several titles, including a co-championship with Penn State in 1949. After his retirement in 1960 the programs successes went on under alumnus, All American and Holocaust survivor Stephen Negoesco, who played under Donoghue in the 50's. He coached the team from 1962 to 2000 and led the team to 540 wins and four national championships (1966, 1975, 1976, 1980). Negoesco was later inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame in 2003 after having won more victories with his team than any other coach in the history of intercollegiate soccer competition in the United States. Under Negoesco's successor, alumnus Erik Visser, the men's team earned the 2004, 2005 and 2008 WCC titles.[92]
