Visit our table in Canyon Commons today to hear about Oregon Extension program
One of the off-campus program options for George Fox students is the Oregon Extension, deep in the Cascades of Southern Oregon.
A professor from the program will be on campus today and tomorrow, at a table in Canyon Commons today (Tuesday) from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., and hosting an info session in Stevens 109 on Wednesday from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m.
In this 17-credit fall semester program, students live in cabins heated with wood stoves and experience a different way to learn, one course at a time. Everything is designed to work on habits of deep learning and learning without the frenzy. You can find out more at oregonextension.org.
At the OE, the internet is not a way of life. Instead, there is a big vegetable garden. Chickens, turkeys, milking goats, and cheese-making are part of community life. After intensive periods of study, students get off campus to backpack in rugged mountains, relax at the Oregon Coast, and explore San Francisco.
Credit can be earned in environmental studies, art history, literature, political science, religious studies, history, psychology, biology, sociology, and philosophy.
Contact Lynn Scott at lscott@georgefox.edu with any questions about the OE visit.
