On Wednesday, May 22, a heavy crane will lift the rooftop HVAC units off of EHS in preparation for reroofing EHS and Wood-Mar. For your safety, no access will be granted into either the EHS or Wood-Mar buildings on Wednesday.
Preparation has already begun on EHS, so EHS is currently closed. Any desired access into a construction zone must be prearranged through Plant Services, as an escort is required.
Both EHS and Wood-Mar will be closed on Wednesday during the heavy crane work, and no access will be granted that day. Wood-Mar will reopen on Thursday, May 23.
If you have any questions, please contact the Plant Services office at 503-554-2010.

The university community is invited to a biology candidate research lecture presented by Dr. Elizabeth DuPriest from 11 a.m. to noon today (Tuesday) in Hoover 102.
Fetal and early childhood environmental influences can “program” a baby’s health and risk of disease that they experience later in life. Using nutritional and transgenic models, Dr. DuPriest will explain how maternal influences shape early growth and the structure and function of the offspring’s kidneys, liver, and adipose tissue.
The title of Dr. DuPriest’s lecture is “Developmental Origins of Health and Disease: Thank Your Mother for Your Good Health!”

Do you have experience with bunions? Then we need you!
George Fox University’s School of Physical Therapy is conducting research on bunions. Our research team is interested in looking at two groups of people: 1) persons who had surgery for their bunions, and 2) those who currently have bunions.
We would like to know how the foot functions following bunion surgery. In order to answer this question, we are collecting data on how people walk and on muscle strength.
Testing is conducted in the physical therapy department. The tests are simple to perform and require about an hour to complete. The results of our study will help to provide direction as to the best form of rehabilitation after surgery or in lieu of surgery.
If you are interested in our study, would like more information or would like to enroll as a participant, please contact Jaymee at 808-728-8353 or email jkau17@georgefox.edu. Jaymee will be happy to answer all your questions. There is a monetary incentive for participation in this study.

Plant Services is hosting its annual Phase II event this week. Feel free to swing by the Macy basement between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. today (Thursday), or between 8 a.m. and noon on Friday, May 10.
After students and staff view the items, whatever remains will be donated to the International Student Emergency Fund and other local charities.
At the end of every school year, many students have good reusable items that they do not want to take home over the summer. These items often include blankets, clothing, kitchen supplies, small appliances, radios, room decorations, furniture, etc.
In an effort to keep the dumpsters from overflowing and to be better stewards of our resources, Phase II was initiated. Many students have benefited from these items. For example, summer work-study students often find items they need for apartment living.
