By Angie Chen
School’s out! But for the University of California community, summer isn’t just a vacation.
学校停课了！但是对于加州大学来说，夏天不仅仅是一个假期。
UC campuses are bustling hubs of activity even in the scorching heat. More than 75,000 students can be found at the system’s campuses, medical centers and labs during the summer months, studying in libraries, conducting research or taking classes to get ahead on credits.
即便是在酷热的天气下，加州大学各分校也是热闹的活动中心。在夏季的几个月里，超过7.5万名学生在该系统的校园、医疗中心和实验室，他们在图书馆学习、进行研究或为获取学分参加各种课程。
At UC Santa Barbara, students are putting pen to paper at the UC Student Veterans Summer Writing Workshop. “We hold the workshop in the summer because it allows student veterans from all UC campuses to participate,” says Susan Derwin, the workshop’s director and founder. “It’s a way for veterans to feel empowered, connect with civilian members and receive support from their community.”
在加州大学圣塔芭芭拉分校，学生们参加加州大学学生退伍军人暑期研讨会。“我们举办的夏季研讨会允许来自加州大学所有分校的学生退伍军人参加，”研讨会的负责人和创始人苏珊·德温(Susan Derwin)说。“这是一种让退伍军人感到被赋予权力，与普通大众建立联系并得到他们社区支持的一种方式。”
When spring classes come to an end, UC keeps moving, providing opportunities for students, staff, faculty and the entire community to experience all that UC has to offer. From art exhibitions to expert panels, find out what the UC community has been doing this summer below.
当春季课程结束时，加州大学并不会休假而是继续为学生、教职员工和整个社区提供体验加州大学生活的机会。从艺术展览到专家访谈，下面来看看加州大学社区今年夏天都做了哪些事情。
UC Santa Barbara
The June UC Student Veterans Summer Writing Workshop gave students from across the UC system an opportunity to write about their experiences in the military. The five-day workshop brought together 16 student veterans from different backgrounds, countries and campuses. Some of their stories are humorous; some, traumatic. The writing process is part of what Derwin refers to as “healing through narrative making.” Through sharing their stories with fellow veterans, participants connected, self-reflected and grew as writers and people.
