The Daily Bruin

Our group is designing a travel app for our Principles of Marketing 260 final project. In contrast with traditional travel websites, we are looking to create a convenient and fun app environment where users can quickly look through local experiences and find “hidden gems” to visit.

Whether it’s restaurants, viewpoints or historical locations, we are looking to create a comprehensive database of quality experiences for our users. Please fill out this survey to help us understand our audience’s preferences and needs.

Thank you! Contact Anika Perry (perrya20@georgefox.edu) with questions.

Calling all current and prospective communication major and minor students! We have a two-minute survey for you to fill out!

Have you ever heard of Lambda Pi Eta (LPH), the communications honor society that we have on campus? This is a group, affiliated with the National Communications Association, that meets periodically throughout the semester, creating opportunities for students to further their relationships with one another and grow academically.

This is a perfect opportunity for students to build community and meet other students within the communications department. LPH can also be a great addition to your resume! Whether or not you are currently eligible to apply for Lambda Pi Eta, there will be events open for all communication students this semester and in the spring. One to look out for will be the December Christmas party (more details coming soon).

If you have questions, you can email Karis Lee, president of Lambda Pi Eta, at klee19@georgefox.edu, or contact professor Kevin Jones at kevinj@georgefox.edu.
