The Daily Bruin

Is there someone at George Fox who has made a difference in your college experience? Did someone ignite a spark that made you want to learn more than you thought you could, someone who walked alongside you during a difficult season, or a person who has been a mentor?

Take a moment to write an email, e-card, or traditional thank-you card to that professor, coach, RA, tutor, supervisor, or other influential person. Stop by the ARC in the library to pick up a free blank card, or send or create your own.

Questions? Contact Julia James at jjames@georgefox.edu.

Do you enjoy the beautiful trees on campus? Would you like to learn how to successfully plant a tree?

On Monday, April 29, we will have a volunteer tree planting day in the Hess Creek Canyon area from 9 to 11 a.m. Volunteers are welcome to come and go, but be sure to be dressed appropriately.

Meet below the Crisman Crossing bridge at 9 a.m. If we have a large number of volunteers, we may also do some invasive removal.

Any questions can be directed to the Plant Services office at ext. 2010.

The Veterans United Association is hosting a pop-up breakfast in the FoxHole today (Monday) from 7 to 8:30 a.m. All veterans are welcome to stop by and get a hot meal.

If you think you might be able to stop in, please email Jeff Brown at jbrown15@georgefox.edu so we can get a head count.

If you have lost something, be sure to come to the Campus Public Safety office soon, because all remaining unclaimed items will be donated to Phase II at the end of the semester.

Anything found in the student residences when they are deep-cleaned will be kept until Friday, May 31, before it is all donated to charitable causes, so be sure to double-check your residence before moving out!

If you work out in Wheeler, Duke or Hadlock, check for your lost items in those buildings before leaving school as well.
