While tuition costs can be partially addressed through \u003ca href=\"https://www.csac.ca.gov/all-in\">universal statewide requirements\u003c/a> to check for financial aid eligibility, challenges affecting many Californians, such as the rising cost of housing, food, transportation and childcare, can often play a big role in determining a student’s success in college.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee, the senior at Christopher High, agreed, saying tuition and housing fees are some of the biggest weights on seniors’ minds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I know a lot of people get stressed out about loans. Even in my government class, my teacher showed us a video kind of warning students about loans and how you can fall down into a deep hole and to explore all your options,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Direct admission programs like SJSU are pursuing are “one of the puzzle pieces” the state is putting together to try and make college more widely accessible and affordable, Bardo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need to develop innovative ways to reach out to students and let them know that college pathways are still available,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Gilroy was also embroiled in a protracted lawsuit brought by shooting victims, who alleged the city and other event organizers’ lax security was to blame. A judge dismissed the city from the suit in 2023.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The festival association has tried to maintain some kind of annual event since. But 2025 is the first year it’s been able to host a festival, even though it will be a scaled-back version of the event Bay Area fans are used to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The festival will be held at South County Grove, a private event space within Gilroy Gardens, which is also home to a family theme park. The smaller footprint means instead of drawing crowds up to 40,000 like it used to, tickets for this year were capped at 3,000 per day.

While \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/ed/2018/08/27/640323347/the-school-shootings-that-werent\">the incidence of on-campus shootings is extremely low\u003c/a>, they’re something many teachers and parents have prepared for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The most helpful thing for parents to share with their kids is that these events are rare and that adults are there to protect them,” said Stephen Brock, professor of psychology at CSU Sacramento. “We can’t deny the reality of these things, but kids need to be reassured with these facts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some kids find out about the news by seeing it themselves or hearing it discussed at school, at home or in their communities. Young children can especially be harmed by this exposure, so experts recommend restricting their access to traumatic news. Kids old enough to have smartphones will likely get misinformation on the internet and social media, so it’s even more important for parents and caregivers to support their kids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some key steps parents and caregivers can take:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Remind kids that they are safe\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Children need to be reassured by their caregivers that they are safe. \u003ca href=\"https://www.apa.org/helpcenter/talking-to-children\">The American Psychological Association says, above all, reassure\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“ … reassure your children that you will do everything you know how to do to keep them safe and to watch out for them. Reassure them that you will be available to answer any questions or talk about this topic again in the future. Reassure them that they are loved.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Limit young children’s exposure to traumatic news\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Young children have less developed skills to separate facts from fears, so psychologists recommend minimizing a child’s exposure to traumatic news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When kids see the news, even if they are not a resident of [the affected place], they have the mistaken perception that they could be shot at any time,” said Brock. “For little ones, turn [the news] off.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And sometimes, that fear is transferred to children through adult behavior. If adults are behaving in an anxious or fearful manner, kids will pick up on that, especially those in primary grades and younger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Kids will look to adults to see how scared they should be,” said Brock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Observe your kids for verbal and nonverbal cues\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A parent might overhear a child talking about a traumatic news event, or the child might ask about it. If it looks like the child is curious, engage the child in conversation, said Brock, adding, “Let their questions be your guide.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But not all kids can verbalize what they’re feeling, so look for changes in behavior. According to \u003ca href=\"https://www.nasponline.org/resources-and-publications/resources-and-podcasts/school-climate-safety-and-crisis/school-violence-resources/talking-to-children-about-violence-tips-for-parents-and-teachers\">the “Talking to Children About Violence: Tips for Parents and Teachers” report\u003c/a> from the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP), caregivers are advised to:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Watch for clues that they may want to talk, such as hovering around while you do the dishes or yard work. Some children prefer writing, playing music, or doing an art project as an outlet. Young children may need concrete activities (such as drawing, looking at picture books, or imaginative play) to help them identify and express their feelings.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if the child is not aware or expressing any interest in a traumatic event, it’s best to not bring it up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don’t want to interject traumatic events into a child,” said Brock, who co-authored the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Talk with your kids in a way that’s developmentally appropriate\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Parents can talk with kids about anything, but it must be developmentally appropriate. Communicating with a 15-year-old is going to be different from talking with a 4-year-old. The \u003ca href=\"https://www.nasponline.org/resources-and-publications/resources-and-podcasts/school-climate-safety-and-crisis/school-violence-resources/talking-to-children-about-violence-tips-for-parents-and-teachers\">NASP\u003c/a> has this advice on how to explain traumas, especially in schools, to different age groups:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Early elementary school children\u003c/strong> need brief, simple information that should be balanced with reassurances that their schools and homes are safe and that adults are there to protect them. Give simple examples of school safety like reminding children about exterior doors being locked, child monitoring efforts on the playground, and emergency drills practiced during the school day.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Upper elementary and early middle school children\u003c/strong> will be more vocal in asking questions about whether they truly are safe and what is being done at their school. They may need assistance separating reality from fantasy. Discuss efforts of school and community leaders to provide safe schools.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Upper middle school and high school students\u003c/strong> will have strong and varying opinions about the causes of violence in schools and society. They will share concrete suggestions about how to make school safer and how to prevent tragedies in society. Emphasize the role that students have in maintaining safe schools by following school safety guidelines (e.g., not providing building access to strangers, reporting strangers on campus, reporting threats to the school safety made by students or community members, etc.), communicating any personal safety concerns to school administrators, and accessing support for emotional needs.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Teens need guidance from their parents, too, especially since they’re absorbing the chatter on social media networks and direct messages from friends. Kids with phones will likely see graphic images through friends and news updates, which can create added trauma and anxiety. \u003ca href=\"https://www.commonsensemedia.org/blog/explaining-the-news-to-our-kids\">Common Sense Media advises parents to check in\u003c/a> on their teens:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Since, in many instances, teens will have absorbed the news independently of you, talking with them can offer great insights into their developing politics and their senses of justice and morality. It will also help you get a sense of what they already know or have learned about the situation from their own social networks. It will also give you the opportunity to throw your own insights into the mix (just don’t dismiss theirs, since that will shut down the conversation immediately).”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Maintain a normal routine\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Brock said, to the extent that it’s possible, maintain a normal routine. This will be helpful for the kid who’s frightened or anxious about a traumatic event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The more typical the routine, the more reassuring it can be,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story contains reporting by the Associated Press, and KQED’s Carly Severn and Spencer Whitney also contributed to this story. A previous version of this story was published on July 15, 2024.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Some children prefer writing, playing music, or doing an art project as an outlet. Young children may need concrete activities (such as drawing, looking at picture books, or imaginative play) to help them identify and express their feelings.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if the child is not aware or expressing any interest in a traumatic event, it’s best to not bring it up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don’t want to interject traumatic events into a child,” said Brock, who co-authored the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Talk with your kids in a way that’s developmentally appropriate\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Parents can talk with kids about anything, but it must be developmentally appropriate. Communicating with a 15-year-old is going to be different from talking with a 4-year-old. The \u003ca href=\"https://www.nasponline.org/resources-and-publications/resources-and-podcasts/school-climate-safety-and-crisis/school-violence-resources/talking-to-children-about-violence-tips-for-parents-and-teachers\">NASP\u003c/a> has this advice on how to explain traumas, especially in schools, to different age groups:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Early elementary school children\u003c/strong> need brief, simple information that should be balanced with reassurances that their schools and homes are safe and that adults are there to protect them. Give simple examples of school safety like reminding children about exterior doors being locked, child monitoring efforts on the playground, and emergency drills practiced during the school day.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Upper elementary and early middle school children\u003c/strong> will be more vocal in asking questions about whether they truly are safe and what is being done at their school. They may need assistance separating reality from fantasy. Discuss efforts of school and community leaders to provide safe schools.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Upper middle school and high school students\u003c/strong> will have strong and varying opinions about the causes of violence in schools and society. They will share concrete suggestions about how to make school safer and how to prevent tragedies in society. Emphasize the role that students have in maintaining safe schools by following school safety guidelines (e.g., not providing building access to strangers, reporting strangers on campus, reporting threats to the school safety made by students or community members, etc.), communicating any personal safety concerns to school administrators, and accessing support for emotional needs.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Teens need guidance from their parents, too, especially since they’re absorbing the chatter on social media networks and direct messages from friends. Kids with phones will likely see graphic images through friends and news updates, which can create added trauma and anxiety. \u003ca href=\"https://www.commonsensemedia.org/blog/explaining-the-news-to-our-kids\">Common Sense Media advises parents to check in\u003c/a> on their teens:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Since, in many instances, teens will have absorbed the news independently of you, talking with them can offer great insights into their developing politics and their senses of justice and morality. It will also help you get a sense of what they already know or have learned about the situation from their own social networks. It will also give you the opportunity to throw your own insights into the mix (just don’t dismiss theirs, since that will shut down the conversation immediately).”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Maintain a normal routine\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Brock said, to the extent that it’s possible, maintain a normal routine. This will be helpful for the kid who’s frightened or anxious about a traumatic event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The more typical the routine, the more reassuring it can be,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story contains reporting by the Associated Press, and KQED’s Carly Severn and Spencer Whitney also contributed to this story.

He says higher land prices in California have caused many flower farmers to sell their land or switch to more profitable crops than flowers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the uptick, marigolds aren’t driving huge profits for most local florists, like Mauricio Vivas, owner of Tony Rossi and Sons Flower Shop in Oakland’s Fruitvale neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our sales probably go up maybe about 10%,” he says. “It’s not that much of an increase in our sales just because of the price of the flower.

He was on his way to meet a friend at a bar when he saw a gunman and the barrel of a firearm. Instinctively, he got down just as his car was sprayed with bullets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Munoz, who moved to Texas about a year ago to work in the oil industry, said he had actually been on edge since the Walmart shooting, which took place just 28 days earlier and about 300 miles (480 kilometers) away, worried that a shooting could happen anywhere at any time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He remembers calling his mother \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/294409121127408c86694d98ee68cc21\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">after the El Paso shooting\u003c/a> to encourage her to have a firearm at home or with her in case she needed to defend herself. He would say the same to friends, telling them before they went to a Walmart to bring a firearm in case they needed to protect themselves or others during an attack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can't just always assume you're safe. In that moment, as soon as the El Paso shooting happened, I was on edge,\" Munoz said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Adding to his anxiety is that, as a convicted felon, he's prohibited from possessing a firearm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few weeks later, as he sat behind the wheel of his car, he spotted the driver of an approaching car wielding a firearm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My worst nightmare became a reality,\" he said. \"I'm the middle of a gunfight and I have no way to defend myself.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the months since, the self-described social butterfly steers clear of crowds and can only tolerate so much socializing. He still drives the same car, still riddled with bullet holes on the side panels, a bullet hole in the headrest of the passenger seat and the words \"evidence\" scrawled on the doors. His shoulder remains pocked with bullet fragments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Many gun owners are also unwilling to turn over the weapons, and if the government offered to buy them all back at face value, the price tag could easily run into the billions of dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O'Rourke's pointed declaration during a recent debate — \"Hell yes, we're gonna take your AR-15, your AK-47\" — stoked longstanding fears among gun owners that Democrats are less interested in safety or finding a middle ground, and just want to confiscate guns. Even some gun-control advocates aren't so sure that confiscating firearms will work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In some regards, this horse is out of the barn,\" said David Chipman, a retired agent with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and now the senior policy adviser for the Giffords group. \"For years we've allowed these to be sold.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O'Rourke's remarks came in the wake of several high-profile shootings, including two in his home state of Texas that involved AR- or AK-style guns.

But there were only about a half million of those devices, and they cost far less than an AR, which can run upwards of $1,000 or more. The ban was largely based on an honor system, though Washington state did offer a buyback program that quickly exhausted the $150,000 set aside to shell out $150 each device turned in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1994, then-President Bill Clinton enacted an \"assault weapons\" ban, at a time when there were an estimated 1.5 million of them in circulation.

The court has steered clear of gun-rights cases since establishing an individual right to possess guns in 2008, and has let stand a number of state gun restrictions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, gun-rights supporters are excited by the changes brought by Trump and the Republican-controlled Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The upcoming Supreme Court session \"could be a real game-changer\" with Trump's appointments of Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, said Chuck Michel, an attorney who represents both the National Rifle Association and the affiliated California Rifle & Pistol Association.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"To the extent that the composition of the court has changed and that it will give the Second Amendment back its teeth, it's very important,\" Michel said. \"It looks like there's enough votes on the court right now to reset the standard.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His clients are challenging California's ammunition background check and extended magazine ban before U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez, an appointee of former President George W. Bush.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other states that limit ammunition magazines in some way, typically between 10 and 20 rounds, are Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and Vermont, according to the Giffords Law Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats said the prospect of four more years of Trump judicial appointments is helping energize their opposition to his re-election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This would be one of the lasting legacies of Donald Trump,\" said former California state Senate leader Kevin de Leon, a Democrat from Los Angeles who carried or supported many of the state's firearms restrictions, including limits on military-style assault weapons. \"When Trump is gone, they will be there for lifetime appointments.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic lawmakers said they will continue pushing more firearms restrictions even as some fear they could be thwarted in the federal courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Sen. Anthony Portantino, a Democrat from Southern California, acknowledges the potential for state gun restrictions to be overturned by federal judges, but said the stakes are too high to back down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He noted that the gunman who recently killed three people and himself \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11766545/gilroy-community-grapples-with-trauma-after-mass-shooting-sometimes-its-terror\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in Gilroy\u003c/a>, at an annual garlic festival, was 19 and legally bought his assault-style rifle in Nevada before illegally bringing it into California. The gunman also carried a 75-round drum magazine and multiple 40-round magazines, all banned under California law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That he could smuggle that across state lines and kill a 6-year-old, to me that's an example of why we need federal action and why California should continue to lead and tell our story,\" Portantino said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He is proposing a ban on anyone buying more than one gun a month and prohibiting almost all gun sales to people under age 21.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
