The Daily Bruin

The George Fox student community is welcome to audition for the university theatre’s spring interfaith play, The Hijabis by Rohina Malik.

General Auditions
General auditions will be on Tuesday, Feb. 8, from 7 to 10 p.m. via Zoom. You can sign up for an audition time slot here.

Theatre students are instructed to prepare a 90-second contemporary monologue for the audition.

If you are not a theatre student you don’t need to memorize a monologue. However, please bring your favorite 90-second monologue, or short story, or something you are excited to perform/read for the director.

Callbacks
Callbacks will be on Wednesday and Thursday, Feb. 9-10, from 7 to 10 p.m. (details to be announced soon).

Rehearsals
Rehearsals begin Monday, Feb. 14, and run Monday through Friday from 7 to 10:30 p.m. and on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Actors will only be called to the rehearsals when they are working their scenes, and the director will work around your schedule to the best of her ability.

Performance dates are March 31 to April 2 and April 7-9 at 7:30 p.m., and April 10 at 2 p.m.

Contact Rhett Luedtke at rluedtke@georgefox.edu with any questions.

Student Accounts would like you to know that 1098-T tuition tax statements are now available! Students may download their form by:

• Logging in to MyGeorgeFox
• Selecting “Financial Account”
• Clicking on “Account Services”
• Selecting “View 1098-T”

Make sure you allow pop-ups in your browser. If you do not see a form available, you did not qualify this year. There are multiple reasons this may happen, but the most common are:

• Scholarships, grants, or third party payments were in excess of the qualified payments.
• You did not have qualifying enrollment.

For a FAQ and more information about the 1098-T, including links to IRS guidelines and instructions, please visit our webpage, or email Chris Pulver at cpulver@georgefox.edu.

Physical copies were also mailed at the end of January to those who did not sign up for electronic delivery.
