Ken Starr, former solicitor general of the United States, federal court of appeals judge, and president of Baylor University, will speak in the university’s Bauman Auditorium this Monday, March 29, at 6:30 p.m.
His lecture, “The Prophetic Call to Justice: Safeguarding Our Fundamental Rights,â€Â draws from his new book on religious liberty. Starr, who has argued 36 cases before the United States Supreme Court, is one of the most prominent attorneys in America.
On Tuesday, March 30, Starr will meet informally at 11 a.m. with students interested in attending law school (location TBA). If you have questions about either event, please contact Mark David Hall at mhall@georgefox.edu.Â
We regret that, because of COVID restrictions, the general public is not invited to either event. This lecture is sponsored by the John Dickinson Forum and made possible by a generous grant from the Jack Miller Center and the Murdock Trust.
All are welcome to join Concert Choir (Class Code: MUSA 125/335 C) next fall, no audition required! We meet Monday/Wednesday/Friday from 3 to 3:50 p.m. If you grew up in choir, or have never sung before, you are welcome!

If the recent disasters that have impacted our state have taught us anything, it’s that being prepared can make a big difference. This is a good time to make sure your emergency alert notifications are turned on for both your cell phone and email
Fox Alert: The Fox Alert system broadcasts messages to the email addresses and mobile phone numbers that students, faculty and staff have provided. It is important that the information is accurate and up to date. Students, faculty and staff can change or update their contact information by logging into the portal at my.georgefox.edu and following the instructions.
ShakeAlert (Earthquake Early Warning): In addition to Fox Alert, ShakeAlert launched earlier this month in Oregon after years of development. Oregon ShakeAlert technology can give you precious seconds, or even more than a full minute of notice, before the shaking of an ongoing earthquake reaches you. To learn more, click here.
Questions? Call Campus Public Safety at 503-554-2090 or email Elrike Shaw (eshaw@georgefox.edu).

Every seven years George Fox University is evaluated by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU) to ensure that we comply with their requirements and standards, and to collect evidence that we serve all students and employees well.
Our next visit, which will be virtual, is scheduled for April 6-7, 2021. Along with individual interviews with key people, there will be three open forums for George Fox community members to share experiences and information with the evaluation team.
Each forum is designed for a different audience: students (grad and undergrad), staff, administrators, and faculty. The forums are currently scheduled during these times for 50 minutes each:
Students: Wednesday, April 7, at 11 a.m.
Staff/Administrators: Tuesday, April 6, at noon
Faculty: Tuesday, April 6, at 3 p.m.
Please plan to attend if at all possible, as we are hoping for a wide range of input for the team. Watch The Daily Bruin for Zoom links to your designated meeting time.
For more information, please contact Linda Samek, accreditation liaison officer, at lsamek@georgefox.edu.

Do you have questions about the COVID vaccines? Join a panel discussion at 6:30 p.m. tonight (Monday) with Cari Jermann, our health center nurse; Stephanie Matthew, our health center nurse practitioner and assistant professor of nursing; and Bill Michielsen from Yamhill County Public Health.

Throughout today (Saturday) and tomorrow (Sunday), students will have the opportunity to complete a “Walk of Remembrance for Racial Injustice” along the Hess Creek Heritage Trail in the canyon.
Twelve signs will be posted along the trail, each describing a historical event in which white people caused or benefitted from injustice toward People of Color.
These stories are difficult, with most detailing violence towards People of Color. This content may be triggering. Please, do not feel that you must engage with this walk if the content may be too difficult to face. We understand that this week has been marked by a heartbreaking and abhorrent attack against the Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders community.
The purpose of this walk is to engage those with privilege and encourage a deeper resolve for justice. It is also an opportunity for reflection, motivation for change, and possibly healing.
We hope that you will take the time to complete the “Walk of Remembrance” if you feel comfortable doing so. The signs will be posted through the weekend, and the walk can be completed at any time.
