This year, University Recreation is assessing our intramural sports program, and we’re looking to hear from you! Whether or not you play already, your input matters to us.

Your feedback on the fitness center was invaluable to us last year and resulted in the purchase of a multi-station cable machine and development of the exercise coaching program, among other things. We’re looking forward to hearing from you how we can continue to improve your experience with intramural sports!

Take the survey here. Everyone who takes it by Thursday, April 20, will receive a $5 Rental Center voucher and will be entered in a raffle to win a $50 Amazon gift card.

Questions? Email Angel Glockling at aglockling@georgefox.edu.

Campus Public Safety will be conducting its annual bicycle roundup starting Wednesday, May 3.

Here are the details:

• Bicycles may not be stored on campus during the summer semester. Claims for impounded bikes may be made at the CPS office.
• If you are staying on campus over the summer and plan to keep a bike here, please stop by Campus Public Safety to get a sticker ID. Move your bike to the rack that is closest to your summer housing.
• Impounded bicycles will be kept at CPS for 60 days and then donated to local charities at the discretion of the Campus Public Safety office. Junk bikes will be recycled.

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.
