First Year Journeys or FYJ's are a unique pre-orientation program available to incoming Bulldogs. FYJ’ers arrive a week before orientation, meet the other participants and leaders on their trip, then depart campus for a multi-day adventure. Itineraries may include everything from extended forays into the wilderness, to getting your hands dirty in community urban gardens. Many trips have camping-style accommodations, although at least one will have opportunities to sleep in a bed every night.While adventuring outside is the setting for FYJ – the core mission is to promote connection, community and your transition into the University. You’ll walk away with unique, shared experiences with your peers, and new companions to share your college!Join an FYJ today: https://www.redlands.edu/student-life/recreation/outdoor-programs/first-year-journeys/

Now serving as the H. Jess and Donna Colton Senecal Endowed Dean of U of R’s School of Business & Society (SBS), Madden brings a wealth of experience in business, community, and education, along with a bold vision for excellence in learning. She previously served as the inaugural dean of Linfield University’s School of Business.“To join an institution whose vision surrounds meaning, impact, and joy speaks to me as a collaboration scholar,” Madden said. “SBS is about all of us being smarter than one of us, and seeing that through business, we can make society better.”Madden sees a unique opportunity to combine the school’s hallmark personal, small-class experience with the gold-standard accreditation model offered through Woodbury University, with sustainable solutions through the Presidio Center, positioning SBS to compete with larger institutions. Central to her vision is strengthening partnerships across the nonprofit, private, and government sectors to create pathways for both traditional students and working adults looking to return to school.Read more: https://www.redlands.edu/bulldog-bites/2025/envisioning-a-better-society-through-business

Watson doesn’t hesitate: it’s about beginning with bold possibilities and working towards making them real, something she refers to as “freedom dreaming,” a term coined by Robin D.G. Kelley.As the new Naslund Endowed Dean of the School of Education, Watson sees learning as the soul of social change, as faculty prepare the next generation of teachers, leaders, and practitioners who, “don’t just theorize about justice but implement it in our lifetime.”Bringing more than administrative experience, Watson leads with vision and sees Redlands as a sanctuary for justice, an ecosystem where faculty and students are already engaged in transformative work. Her priority, she said, is to shine a light on that brilliance.Read more: https://www.redlands.edu/bulldog-bites/2025/forward-towards-bolder-horizons
