Summer Bridge - Session 2




The second group of Summer Bridge students arrived on campus this week. They are a lively bunch and excited about becoming Bulldogs. Speaking of lively bulldogs, Thurber and Talulah mugged it up for the camera with the students after their lunch with faculty. It was a little warm (actually starting to feel like summer!) so Thurber decided to quench his thirst in the fountain. Oh the silliness of youth!

Redlands Connection Day
















Thurber enjoyed the morning check in at Orton with a great turnout of incoming students and their parents. As this was Redlands Connection Day, I felt it appropriate to send the incoming mascot to greet the incoming students. This is his first class. The Class of 2014! I stayed home and slept in. Thurber needs casual and fun days like this to get ready for the excitement of fall school and sports events. He cruised through the crowd, greeting all and leaving most with a smile across their face. Get to know him. You'll find him with me in the kennel at the Willis Center and he'll need an occasional handler to take him out for walks once the academic year begins. Welcome.

Summer Bridge Session 1 July 2010


Thurber (always willing to help out!) was on hand to take a picture with the Summer Bridge students this week. They arrived on Tuesday to experience campus life and really get to know the University before the Fall semester begins. We are so excited that they are here and hope they enjoy all the activities!! Welcome to Redlands!!!!
