SoCal Connected
The Business of Santa
First of all, if you still believe in Santa — turn away! This week's SoCal Rewind pulls back the curtain on the magic of Christmas to look at the ins and outs of being Claus. Life & Times reporter Hena Cuevas takes us to Santa Claus University, a place where prospective Clauses learn not just how to Ho Ho Ho, but how to avoid a lawsuit. Meet the Santa Class, 2005.

By drawing on KCET's extensive archive of Southern California news, culture and public affairs, we'll seek to inform current events by providing a little historical perspective, and maybe answer the question: Is there anything new under the SoCal sun?
