Redlands Culture and Traditions
- The "R": This letter carved into the vegetation of the San Bernardino Mountains started as prank in 1913, but still stands today and is currently the second-largest collegiate letter in the nation.
- Mascot: The University has an English Bulldog, Thurber, who serves as the official mascot. Thurber took over title from his grandfather Duke in September 2010. Duke and Thurber can be found at various campus events or at their kennel near the office of admission. Histories are kept of the past and present bulldog mascots on the About Redlands website.

Famous quotes containing the words culture and/or traditions:
“No culture on earth outside of mid-century suburban America has ever deployed one woman per child without simultaneously assigning her such major productive activities as weaving, farming, gathering, temple maintenance, and tent-building. The reason is that full-time, one-on-one child-raising is not good for women or children.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
“But generally speaking philistinism presupposes a certain advanced state of civilization where throughout the ages certain traditions have accumulated in a heap and have started to stink.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
