Student Journalists Covering Campus Protests

Student journalists with the CalMatters College Journalism Network Fellowship have been covering campus protests at their universities. Joining Insight is Atmika Iyer, a UCSB student-journalist, Christina Chkarboul, a student-journalist with the USC Daily Trojan, and Christopher Buchanan, a student-journalist at UCLA.

Blood Donations for New Mothers

Every year, about 219,000 units of blood and platelets are needed to help patients experiencing women’s health issues - including about 1 of every 83 births. The nonprofit Vitalant is highlighting that need. Communications Manager Victoria Wolfe and West Division Vice President Mitzy Edgecomb discuss the callout to blood donors, and the opportunity to meet maternal blood needs.

Sofia Educational Jazz Series

A new performance series at The Sofia is educating and connecting audience members with the various genres and characteristics of jazz. The series started in April, with plans to do 12 jazz shows per year. Saxophonist Jacam Manricks, who is performing in and curating the series, provides a taste of the different forms of jazz, as well as upcoming series performances of Miles Davis’ “Kind of Blue” on May 10, and John Coltrane’s “A Love Supreme” on June 13.
