Riding a bike to campus? Please pick up an ID sticker

Monday, May 7th, 2018

Security Services will start tagging bikes left on racks this Friday, May 11. This is to help us identify what bikes have been left behind so we can start the removal/storage process in accordance with the new summer bike policy.

Phase II viewing is today in Macy basement

Thursday, May 3rd, 2018

Plant Services is hosting its annual Phase II event this week. At the end of every school year many students have good reusable items that they do not want to take home over the summer. These items often include blankets, clothing, kitchen supplies, small appliances, radios, room decorations, furniture, etc.

Items are open for viewing in the Macy basement today (Friday) from 8 a.m. to noon. After students and staff view these items, the remaining items will be donated to other local charities.

In an effort to keep the dumpsters from overflowing and to be better stewards of our resources, Phase II was initiated. Many students have benefited from these items. For example, summer work-study students often find items they need for apartment living.

Questions? Contact Dwayne Astleford (dastlefo@georgefox.edu).

Leaving vehicles on campus policy

Wednesday, April 25th, 2018

Here is the policy for leaving cars on campus during Juniors Abroad and summer serve trips:

  1. Due to construction all summer long around campus, it is recommended to leave your car off-campus with a friend who can drive it and watch it, as George Fox is not responsible for any theft or damage to your vehicle while left unattended on campus.
  2. Cars must be left in one of two places only: the side of the Le Shana lot closest to Wheeler and the North Street parking lot in between Brandt Hall and Canyon Commons.
  3. The key must be left with Security Services before departure.
  4. Security has a form to be signed, and name and number of emergency contact is needed on the form in addition to your license plate number, make and model of vehicle, and where it was parked.
  5. Upon return from the trip, call security at 503-554-2090 to arrange a time with the officer on duty to pick up your key if it is after office hours. Bring photo ID to claim your key.
  6. Any vehicle left on campus without the key being left with security is subject to tow at your expense due to Plant Services/construction activity all around campus during the summer.
  7. Do not abandon your car on city streets, as the city of Newberg will tow it as an “abandoned vehicle” after 72 hours.
  8. Enjoy your time abroad!

Important vehicle registration information for fall 2018

Wednesday, April 25th, 2018

Students: Be sure to check the Daily Bruin and your email during early summer to find out the dates when vehicle registration will open this summer. Parking permits for on-campus students will be issued on a first-come, first served basis based on fall class standing, so don’t miss your registration time window! Seniors will be given the first registration window, then juniors, etc.

Commuter and graduate students will have the first opportunity to register, so please do so by Aug. 1 to assure that your permit will arrive before school starts.

For anyone who registers after mid-August, please use your campus PO box, or the address you will be commuting from as your mailing address, as it will take up to two to three weeks for your permit to arrive to the address you indicate.

All students will need to have your DMV registration slip in front of you when you register on MyGFU, as the database will ask for information from that slip. A parking brochure will also be mailed with your parking permit, and lot and location changes are likely due to ongoing construction, so be sure to read it before arriving on campus!

Have a great summer and keep watching this space, your email and the George Fox Security Services Facebook page for further updates.

Employees: If you could help get the word out to students about vehicle registration, it would be greatly appreciated.

Contact Nadine Kincaid (nkincaid@georgefox.edu) with any questions.
