If you are looking for a chance to put what you have learned about APA into practice, join the ARC for our hands-on APA workshop this Wednesday, Feb. 21, from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. in Lemmons 8.

There will be a brief review of basic APA in-text citations and references, and then plenty of time to practice the skills with immediate feedback from peers and the ARC coordinator, Maddie Lowen.

A basic understanding of APA will be helpful for this workshop. If you were not able to attend Sue O’Donnell’s previous APA workshop, please take some time to review these slides from her presentation.

The university’s Department of Biology and Chemistry invites you to join us for the eighth annual Dalton Lecture at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 22, in Bauman Auditorium.

Dr. Simon Conway Morris, a professor at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of St. John’s College, will speak on the topic of evolutionary palaeobiology along with the question of “Inevitable Humans in a Lonely Universe?” Admission is free.

More information is available on the Dalton Lecture Series webpage. Questions? Call the Department of Biology and Chemistry at 503-554-2710.

The university’s Department of Biology invites you to a special guest lecture presented by Dr. Carlos Martinez del Rio, professor of zoology and physiology at the University of Wyoming, on Thursday, March 8, at 5 p.m. in Hoover 105.

Martinez del Rio has published more than 150 papers on physiological ecology and natural history and has received wide recognition for his substantial contributions to stable isotope ecology. He has explored how birds disperse mistletoe seeds, why hummingbirds can digest table sugar but robins cannot, and why variable temperatures make hawkmoths uncertain pollinators.

Most recently, he’s studied stable isotopes to find out how much white-winged doves depend on saguaros and why there are so few marine songbirds. The title of his presentation is “From isotopes to adaptive radiations: A cyborg’s perspective.”

This lecture is open to the university community and the public. Please contact the biology department (ext. 2710) with any questions.

Calling all artists – particularly those interested in illustration: Tonight (Monday), we will host commercial illustrator Jesse LeDoux for Art Talk at the Chehalem Cultural Center (415 E. Sheridan St.). Join us for this free presentation from 6 to 7 p.m.

LeDoux worked for many years as an art director for Seattle-based Sub Pop Records, where he created iconic album and poster artwork for such artists as the Shins (“Best album packaging” Grammy nominee for Chutes Too Narrow), Iron and Wine, and Death Cab for Cutie before leaving in 2004 to focus on his client-based and personal work. He has worked on commercial illustration and collaborative projects for such clients as Starbucks, Nike, Disney, Giro, Rapha, Penguin UK and Target, and has exhibited internationally.

Hope to see you there! Contact Elizabeth Herrera (herrerae16@georgefox.edu) for more information.

Today is President’s Day. There will be no outgoing mail. Therefore, whatever mail is brought in will go out Tuesday.
