7/13 - 7/20: Redlands Emergency Services Academy (RESA)
Be advised that the Redlands Emergency Services Academy(RESA) will be at the University from Wednesday, July 13 through Wednesday, July 20. RESA is an annual academy designed for teens. It was founded in 1999 as a partnership between the Redlands Police Department, Redlands Fire Department, Redlands Unified School District, and Crafton Hills Community College as a proactive effort to provide graduating high school seniors with positive exposure to the challenges, benefits, and rewards of a career in public safety or emergency fire services. The weeklong, live-in academy also stresses the development of leadership skills and teamwork and the value of meaningful contribution to one’s community in either a paid or volunteer position. During the academy, participants will engage in a multitude of simulated activities.
As in previous years, the participants wear matching attire with logos. On-duty officers who may be uniformed and armed will be present. At various times, there will be emergency rescue vehicles, fire trucks, and police cars on campus to support the simulated activities. The University’s Event Services and Public Safety departments are aware of all their activities and Public Safety will be available on-campus throughout the duration of the training.

Behind the scenes of "Meraki"
Throughout April, the University of Redlands Art Gallery is hosting “Meraki,” an exhibition featuring the work of twenty-five graduating student artists. The exhibition was planned by students enrolled in the Studio Art capstone seminar. Earlier this month, I spoke with two of the students, Alicia Lopez and Calvin Originales, to learn more about what went into staging this exhibition.
