April 17, 2014 2:35 PM

The signs of spring sweep across the grounds of The Colleges’ Bernard Field Station and adjacent north campus property, speckles of yellow and purple in a sea of wildflowers. Charred tree trunks scattered among the mix are the only things that betray a less tranquil scene at the same property just six months earlier. Following what could have been a devastating fire, burning 17 acres in the Foothill Boulevard sanctuary in September, the local outdoor laboratory is blossoming with new life and fresh opportunities for students and locals alike.

Girl Scouts embrace strong self-esteem

Girl Scouts hide behind magazine photos as they pose for a photographer on Tuesday during the scouts’ "Don’t Let the Media Mask Who You Are" event at Sycamore Elementary School. The photo shoot was part of a leadership project by Girl Scout Troop 5364 to examine how retouched images of models affect the way girls feel about their appearance. During the event, the girls first posed in dresses with the magazine images and then changed into comfortable clothes and posed for another photo doing something they love.
