Paul Anderson (Christian studies) published an article, “Ethiopian Lives Matter – The Social Conscience of the Saint John’s Bible III,†in the Huffington Post’s religion blog on Jan. 15.
Dick Elliott (Music) was awarded the Oregon Music Educators Association’s John McManus Distinguished Teacher Award in recognition of his lifetime of service to music education. Dick was presented the award at the OMEA State Conference in Eugene, Ore., in mid-January. This is the second award Dick has received from the OMEA, as in 2006 he was recipient of the organization’s Teacher of the Year award.
Also at the conference, Pat Vandehey and Danielle Warner led George Fox ensembles in a performance that earned a standing ovation. George Fox had the honor of being the only institution of higher education whose band/choir were selected to perform in a concert hour.
