The Daily Bruin

Do you want to grow and develop as a leader? Is growing your leadership presence part of your performance goals or faculty growth plan for 2019-20?

If you answered “yes” to either of these questions, then you may want to consider applying for the Leadership Development Initiative (LDI). The program welcomes George Fox employees who desire to grow in their current role or seek to prepare themselves for future leadership roles.

Applications are now being accepted for the 2019-20 cohort and are due by May 1, 2019. Fill out the Leadership Development Initiative application here.

If you have questions, please contact Rebecca Hernandez at ext. 2147 or Nichole Drew at ext. 2182.

Graduating seniors, do you know about the Pay It Forward Program?

By opting to donate all or half of your remaining enrollment deposit, you can help other George Fox students. One-hundred percent of your gift will support a fellow student who is unable to continue their education or an alumnus who has a remaining amount due to the university.

Recipients are nominated by faculty and staff members, then vetted for eligibility, and allocations are made by the Pay It Forward Award Committee. As part of the program, awardees are asked to continue the generosity by “paying it forward” in the future.

Learn more about this amazing program during Exodus at the Student Accounts table, or contact Heidi Thomason at hthomaso@georgefox.edu for more information.

Seniors graduating this spring are invited to come celebrate at the Exodus Grad Fair in Canyon Commons 101-102 today (Tuesday) or tomorrow (Wednesday) between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Pick up your cap and gown and get checked out with university offices before you graduate. Enjoy free snacks and raffle prizes, too! Learn more here.
