The resources explain how to use the 25Live scheduling system, coordinate dates, follow safety and policy standards, and connect with campus logistics support so events run smoothly and responsibly.
   

• Coming El Niño could bring unusual marine life to region (wavepublication.com) — Scientists say a strengthening El Niño is already drawing unusual marine life to Southern California, including a whale shark spotted off Malibu. Warmer waters could bring more tropical fish and even rare sea snakes, while also stressing seals and sea lions. Malibu beachgoers are urged to report unusual animals and keep clear of sick or stranded marine mammals.
