We have not yet thought of all the ways we could help local communities heal from political polarization, so our disagreements can be the gifts they are meant to be. Come hear from two distinctly different community-building approaches (one in Hillsboro, and another in Sisters, Oregon), and consider how their experiences could inspire active, justice-building civility in your own community.

Join us for the George Fox Civility Project’s “Building Healthy Political Civility in Local Communities: Two Oregon Models,” taking place from 7 to 8:30 p.m. tonight (Monday) in Hoover 105.

Contact Ron Mock at civility@georgefox.edu for more information.

One of the off-campus program options for George Fox students is the Oregon Extension, deep in the Cascades of Southern Oregon.

It’s a 17-credit fall semester where 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.

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.

A professor from the OE will be on campus Tuesday and Wednesday, April 18-19, at a table in Canyon Commons on 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. Find out more at oregonextension.org.

Credit can be earned in environmental studies, art history, literature, political science, religious studies, history, psychology, biology, sociology, and philosophy.

Good morning, business majors and minors!

We are very excited to announce we’ll be having an “interest gathering” for the Business Club that will be officially starting up in the fall.

If you want a place to celebrate your hard work this year with your peers, come join us. If you want a place to meet people, make connections heading into the summer, and invest in the community of the College of Business, please come. And if you could just use a slice of pizza and a popsicle to cheer you on before finals, you should come, too.

Please RSVP here to let us know you’re coming.

• When: Thursday, April 20, at 6 p.m.
• Where: Hoover 105
• Who: All business majors and minors are welcome
• What’s (for dinner): Pizza and popsicles
• Why: Come meet people, look back on and celebrate the year, and be a part of new community connections in the making! This is a launchpad to holistically invest in your peers and be grown and encouraged in return.
