Check out current exhibits on campus

The university’s museum currently has a number of exhibits on the Newberg campus.

  • In Canyon Commons, there is “Congratulations Graduates!,” which details the events surrounding graduation in the early 1900s and early 2000s.
  • In the library, there is “Mary Sutton’s Legacy.” Mary was a faculty member from 1911 to 1963. 
  • In the Hoover Kershner Library (Hoover 104), the exhibit is “Levi Pennington: Committed Christian, College President, Humanitarian.” Levi was president of George Fox from 1911 to 1941 and remains Oregon’s longest-serving college president.
  • In Pennington House, there is “Welcome to the Pennington’s,” which highlights Levi and Rebecca Pennington’s family life.
  • In the Stevens Center, there is “Votes for Women” highlighting some of the roles that women have had at the university, along with “Alan D. Rutherford (1906-1979),” who was the college’s first Black graduate.
