The university’s theatre department invites the community to the show Living Out, playing at the Chehalem Cultural Center’s Black Box Theater (415 E. Sheridan St.) tonight and tomorrow (Friday and Saturday) at 7:30 p.m. both evenings.
Living Out tells the story of a Salvadoran nanny and the Anglo lawyer she works for. The play explores what is the shared humanity between them and the differences wrought by race, class and Ana’s immigration status. The play also looks at the prejudices and misconceptions between Anglos and Latinos. How do we make someone “the other”? What is the cost of doing so? The play is both outrageously funny and ultimately tragic.
Tickets are “pay what you want” at the door (no reservations). Contact JeanneAnn Faris (jfaris15@georgefox.edu) for more information.

The clock is ticking to pick up your lost items at the security office! All items not claimed by their owners by Monday, April 30 will be donated to charitable causes that day, so be sure to stop by before you leave school next week. We are sure that you are going to need your notebooks, textbooks and water bottles for finals next week, so come on by!
Staff & Faculty: Please turn in all “found” items to the security office soon so students can have a fair chance at retrieving their lost items before leaving school next week. Thank you!
Questions? Contact Nadine Kincaid.
Please plan now for the institution-wide stationery order taken at the end of August. The collective order helps keep costs low – the higher the volume, the lower the cost. Consequently, it is most economical to overestimate needs and store a small surplus.
I will be accepting orders from now through Thursday, Aug. 23, when orders are due.
For order instructions, go to the marketing communications website. Continue to purchase all non-departmental stationery (including “second-sheet letterheadâ€) through the university’s print services office.
Please contact me if you have any questions.
Thank you,
