Founding the University

The University of Redlands had its roots in the founding of two other Baptist institutions, California College in Oakland, and Los Angeles University. Both institutions opened in 1886, but LAU never became financially solvent, soon ceased functioning as a university, and incurred massive debts. After the San Francisco earthquake of 1906 damaged the finances of California College, a Baptist commission began exploring the liquidation of both institutions to develop a new institution in Southern California.

The Reverend Jasper Newton Field, a Baptist pastor at Redlands, persuaded the Redlands Board of Trade to pursue the college at Redlands. Redlands proposed at least 100,000 dollars and 40 acres for a campus (on land donated by layman Mr. K.C. Wells) if the Baptist Church could bring in from 240,000 to 500,000 dollars towards building the university. On June 27, 1907 the Commission met in Pasadena and voted all in favor of the Redlands proposal. is the 178th day of the year (179th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Ground was broken in April 9, 1909, on the hill where the administration building now stands. Nine founding faculty members held their first day of classes in the Redlands Baptist Church on September 30, 1909, with 39 students attending.

On January 27, 1910, the University of Redlands opened its physical doors by occupying the newly completed Administration building. Bekins Hall and the President's mansion were the only two other buildings completed. President Field was charged with further securing $200,000 for endowment, but the Great Freeze of 1911, which wiped out half the California citrus crop and severely damaged the local economy, made this impossible. is the 27th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar. ...

After the trustees decided “that it would be in the best interest of the University to temporarily use the president's home for the music department,” President Field resigned in 1914. As accounts stood, the Northern Baptist's Education Board would not endorse the university to prospective donors. Victor LeRoy Duke, Dean and Professor of Mathematics, became the next president. The Northern Baptist Convention was founded in Washington, D.C. on May 17, 1907. ...

The Southern California Baptist community initiated a campaign to raise $50,000 to clear outstanding debt. The following spring the Northern Baptist Education Board, after meeting with the Trustees, reversed their decision of two years earlier and endorsed the school, promising to help raise an endowment. A financial endowment is a transfer of money or property donated to an institution, with the stipulation that it be invested, and the principal remain intact. ...

After the US entered World War I in 1917, the national Baptist campaign for UR's endowment was called off. The university recruited 131 men to qualify the campus for the Students’ Army Training Corps program, whose tuition expenses were to be paid by the federal government in exchange for military training. However, due to the armistice, the Corps was ordered demobilized before the end of its first term, though the new recruits made 1918-19 a banner year for Redlands athletics.

By 1925 the faculty numbered 25, and student enrollment had increased to 465. Finances had improved to the extent that, with significant volunteer help, UR was able to erect 12 new buildings by the end of the decade. New dormitories, classrooms, a library, memorial chapel and gymnasium were built. A school of education was added. A developing alumni base also started to support the university. By 1928, the University's endowment was $2,592,000, the fourth largest in the state and among the top ten percent of American universities.^[1]

Redlands during the Great Depression

By the beginning of 1932, the effects of the Great Depression started to be felt at the University. Enrollment soared, as there was no work to be found, but student indebtedness also increased exponentially, as well as the amount the University owed banks. Salaries were cut, and employees were laid-off. On March 3, 1933, the day after the governor declared a moratorium on banks, President Duke died of a cerebral hemorrhage.

A intracranial hemorrhage is a bleed into the substance of the cerebrum. ...

The administration of UR's third President, Dr. Clarence Howe Thurber, soon ran afoul of ultra-conservative churches. Student members complained of a liberal attitude toward Baptist doctrine being inoculated by Robert H. Lynn, Crawford Professor of Biblical, Missionary and Ethical Instruction. Although the trustees attempted to assuage the matter by conducting a hearing between Lynn and the complaining students, the report they issued commending the Christian spirit of both parties further alienated critical Baptists. The later affair of Dr. William H. Roberts, a Redlands psychology professor who became the campaign manager of Upton Sinclair's run for governor in 1934, also severely strained town and gown relations.

Redlands during and after World War II

The 1940s brought many changes to the University of Redlands. They began with the bombing of Pearl Harbor. As conscriptions and enlistments for the war depleted classes, courses were set up for the soldiers at Camp Haan and March Field. Physical education and military science courses at the college began to assume a much higher priority. This article is about the harbor in Hawaii. ...

The July 1, 1943 arrival of a Navy V-12 unit, composed of 631 men for officer candidate training, along with a civilian enrollment of 473 women and 110 men, was Redlands’ largest enrollment ever, and gradually lead to the easing of social restrictions. Military men were not required to attend chapel, and on New Year's Eve the Marines clandestinely held the first impromptu dance ever on the campus. Two months later, the Navy held the first formal dance on the commons, and the Trustees finally discarded the “no dancing” policy in 1945, after the Redlands V-12 unit had been disbanded.^[2] is the 182nd day of the year (183rd in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

The passage of the GI Bill further opened the doors at Redlands. By special action of Congress, housing units for 50 veteran's families were installed on campus. Of the 219 graduates of June, 1949, 126 were veterans, and of these 70 were married. The G. I. Bill of Rights or Servicemens Readjustment Act of 1944 provided for college or vocational education for returning World War II veterans as well as one-year of unemployment compensation. ...

The 50s saw other changes. Fraternity houses were established for the first time, and other improvements made to the university. The first Ph.D. ever granted by the University was received in 1957, by Milton D. Hummex, in Philosophy.

Compulsory chapel attendance fell to the student militancy of the 1960s and 70s. The seventh President of the University, Dr. Douglas Moore, was not even Baptist. The campus became truly interdenominational and multicultural, going for some years without clergymen on the Board of Trustees.

The college has 167 full-time faculty members. Eighty-five percent of full-time faculty have a Ph.D. or terminal degree.

Johnston Center for Integrative Studies

Main article: Johnston Center for Integrative Studies

Born in the midst of the Free Speech Movement, Johnston College began as an experiment in student-initiated, contract-driven education, and operated as an autonomous unit of the university for approximately 10 years. In 1979, it was integrated into the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) as the Johnston Center for Individualized Studies. It operated under that name until the mid-1990's, when it was renamed The Johnston Center for Integrative Studies. // Guided by the example of the Claremont College Consortium, in 1965 planning started for an experimental college attached to the University of Redlands. ... The Free Speech Movement was a student protest which began in 1964 - 1965 on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley under the informal leadership of student Mario Savio and others. ...

Today, some two-hundred Redlands students live and learn together in the Johnston complex, which includes two residence halls and five faculty offices. Students design their own majors in consultation with faculty, and write contracts for their courses, for which they receive narrative evaluations in lieu of traditional grades.

Contracts

Johnston students take responsibility for and control of their education though contracts with faculty for graduation and for individual courses.

A Johnston grad contract is a narrative and course list outlining what a student studies at Johnston. The narrative is a short outline of what subjects the student wants to integrate in their studies. The course list outlines what courses will be taken in order to fulfill the learning objectives outlined in the narrative.

A Grad Contract Committee, consisting of the student's advisor, three other professors, and two other Johnston students with already approved contracts approves the grad contract. If the committee feels that there is an integral component left out of the narrative and/or course list, the committee can make a stipulation (a demand of sorts) which the student must agree to before the contract is approved.

Johnston students also write contracts for most courses that they take. With these course contracts they can customize the course to meet their learning and educational needs. The student can contract to do certain requirements outlined in the syllabus while substituting particular requirements in the syllabus with something else, though any of these changes to a class syllabus must be negotiated between the student and the professor.

Community

Johnston prides itself on the intentional community that its members live in. Johnston has two dorms which are collectively known as the Johnston Complex. These two dorms are Bekins and Holt. There are community meetings every Tuesday at 4pm. At these meetings various topics are discussed about the community itself and how best to improve the community. Proposals are also brought forth to the community requesting money from the Johnston budget for various projects such as art shows. Smoking cigarettes used to be allowed on the balcony, but not since it was almost burned down in 2006. An intentional community is a planned residential community designed to promote a much higher degree of social interaction than other communities. ...

School of Music

The University of Redlands School of Music was founded along with the University as its School of Fine Arts. It is today an accredited institutional member of the National Association of Schools of Music, and its requirements for entrance and graduation comply with the standards of this accrediting organization. The National Association of Schools of Music, NASM, was founded in 1924 and is an accreditor for schools for post-high school education. ...

Approximately 185 students study Music with 13 full-time and 26 adjunct faculty.

Any University student may participate in musical activities through enrollment (usually by audition) in the University Choir, Chapel Singers, Madrigals, Wind Ensemble, Studio Jazz Band, Symphony Orchestra, Chamber Orchestra, University Opera, and a variety of chamber music ensembles. Students are invited to register for private, group, or class lessons, available on all instruments and for voice.

School of Education

The oldest graduate division within the university, the School of Education was founded in 1924. As of 2006, it serves 584 students in graduate coursework, with 17 full-time professors and 30 adjunct professors, and offers a nationally unique "Doctorate in Leadership for Educational Justice" (Ed.D.), the only doctoral program on campus, which engages 20 students each year.

School of Business

Founded in 1976 as the Alfred North Whitehead College for Lifelong Learning, the School of Business started as an experiment in providing educational services to working adults in locations throughout Southern California. It was one of the first successful ventures in quality education through off-site learning. It evolved to become the School of Business in 2001. // Distance Education is a field of expertise exploring situations in which the learner and the teacher are separated in time, space or both. ...

The School of Business currently has 1,019 full-time students (2006), taught by 22 full-time and 46 adjunct professors. Classes are held at the Redlands campus as well as satellite locations in Orange County, Temecula, Los Angeles County, Riverside, Rancho Cucamonga/Ontario and San Diego County.

The School of Business also offers a daytime MBA program, which was launched in 2006. The program provides an opportunity for a Redlands graduate to stay a fifth year and complete a masters. Some aptly prepared students could even complete the program in as little as 30 units. According to Keith Roberts, associate dean, "The school of business has traditionally only taught working adults in an evening program, but we saw there was a need for traditional students who completed their bachelor's to move right into a graduate program so this was a new market that our school of business had never really addressed."^[3]

Campus Housing

The University offers their students guaranteed housing of some form or another during their four years of undergraduate study. These students live in the following halls and complexes:

• Anderson Hall: Home to approximately 200 undergraduates primarily in first or second years.
• Bekins Hall: One of the Johnston Complex housing and classroom buildings, Bekins has the distinction of being the first residence hall on campus. Non air-conditioned.
• Bekins-Holt: Johnston Complex's other part includes the Johnston lobby and is also air conditioned.
• Brockton Avenue Apartments: The newest housing at the University, the Brockton Apartments opened for the 2003-2004 academic year. The complex houses approximately 250 residents in four-person units. These units share two bathrooms and a common area/kitchen. Brockton is viewed as the best place for upperclassmen to live, however it comes at a higher cost than the halls.
• California-Founders Hall: Consists of an all male wing (California) and an all female wing (Founders) joined by a common lobby to form a living area for approximately 200 sophomore and junior students. This hall underwent major renovation in the summer of 2006 to outfit the hall with modern fire equipment, as well as electrical upgrades, structural bolstering, and air conditioning. The hall reopened September 1, 2006 for staff, hosting residents the next day.
• Cortner Hall: Home to 130 residents, usually in the upper classes of juniors and seniors. The hall was renovated in 2000 and is viewed by many to be the epitome of upperclass housing within the hall system.
• East Hall: Originally built for the Johnston Complex, East hosts approximately 120 freshmen in its three air conditioned, quadrangle-layout floors.
• Fairmont Hall: The campus' smallest hall, Fairmont hosts 60 residents. Fairmont is the only hall with its own mascot: a rock, deemed such a prize for its theft and relocation that the university anchored it to the ground in concrete. To this day, various other halls attack the rock in a friendly water-balloon battle late at night.
• Grossmont Hall: Home to approximately 120 women, Grossmont is the largest unisex hall on campus. The financier specified that the hall were to be for the use of women exclusively for the duration of her lifetime, thus it stands today. Non air-conditioned.
• Merriam Hall: The school's dedicated "first year hall", Merriam is the primary hall for transfer students. It also houses freshmen in its air-conditioned rooms.
• Melrose Hall: The "quiet" hall features extended quiet hours and a newly renovated living area. Melrose houses 65 upperclassmen.
• North Hall: Merriam's twin hall, North is the Wellness Hall, featuring substance free living, and a primary pick for athletes due to its proximity to the gym.
• Williams Hall: East's twin hall, Williams also hosts approximately 120 freshmen in its three air conditioned, quadrangle-layout floors.

Lewis Hall

The University has recently added two new buildings: Lewis Hall (named after U.S. Congressman Jerry Lewis) and Appleton hall (named after the former university president). Lewis hall opened in fall of 2005, and is home to the Master of Science in Geographic Information Systems Program, the Environmental Studies Program, and the Redlands Institute (an environmental research institute). Appleton Hall opened in spring 2006 and is home to the physics, math, and computer science departments, which were previously in Duke and Hentschke halls. Appleton Hall, named after UR chancellor and former president Jim Appleton, cost the university about $10.3 million. Its southern wall is graced by a giant sundial designed by physics professor Tyler Nordgren, including a version for daylight-saving time, that is accurate within 10 minutes.^[4] The occupants of the second building call it "Hall of Numbers."
