The Daily Bruin

If you are currently enrolled in a doctoral-level graduate program at George Fox, please consider taking our survey investigating how personality traits vary across professional fields and find out which super villain you are most like!

This survey should take about 15 to 20 minutes to complete. Participation is voluntary, and you may discontinue the survey at any time. Responses are completely anonymous and collected only for the purpose of this study.

This study is being conducted by students in the PsyD program at George Fox University with IRB committee approval. Please direct questions or concerns to either Lia McLanahan at lmclanahan19@georgefox.edu or Hailie Scholbrock Floch at hfloch22@georgefox.edu.

George Fox University welcomes Pat Gelsinger, former CEO of Intel Corporation, to campus for an engaging and timely lecture: “Big Tech & Big Responsibility: F.AI.th, Work, and Preparing the Next Generation – How Industry Leaders Can Foster Ethical Innovation.”

The lecture will be on Tuesday, April 8, at 7 p.m. in Bauman Auditorium. Chapel credit will be given to students who attend. You can claim seats by visiting this link.

This lecture is a rare opportunity to hear from one of the most influential minds in technology and leadership. Gelsinger will explore the ethical responsibilities of tech leaders in an AI-driven world, the intersection of faith and work, and how we can equip the next generation to lead with integrity in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.

Gelsinger dedicated 30 years to Intel before stepping away to become CEO of VMware, where he led the company’s transformation into a global powerhouse in cloud infrastructure, enterprise mobility, and cybersecurity – nearly tripling its annual revenue.

In 2019, his visionary leadership and dedication to a positive workplace culture earned him the title of America’s top CEO in Glassdoor’s annual employee survey. In 2021, he returned to Intel as CEO, taking the helm to guide the company into its next era of innovation and growth.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month, and the Office of Inclusive Excellence invites you to join us in preventing sexual assault, abuse and harassment. We are partnering with multiple departments on campus as well as local community partners to provide you information, resources and care.

Did you know that 20% of pro-life Americans self-identify as nonreligious? Groups like Secular Pro-Life and Pro-Life Humanists challenge the idea that pro-life beliefs are solely religious. Nevertheless, pro-life views remain most common among religious communities. Why is this?

Join us in EHS 102 tonight (Wednesday) at 7 p.m. as Jason Lepojärvi explores this thought-provoking question in a lecture, “Pro-Life Atheist: Oxymoron?”

Food banks are facing increasing difficulties in obtaining food due to a combination of factors, including rising food costs, supply chain disruptions, and a surge in demand as people struggle with inflation and the end of pandemic-related aid.

Due to these factors, the Bruin Community Pantry is facing a shortage of basic supplies that our students and community members rely on. We are in desperate need of grocery bags and certain shelf-stable items.

Here are some ways you can help:

• Donate targeted items to the food bank.
  • Soups
  • Chili
  • Oatmeal
  • Canned meals
  • Boxed meals (rice, pasta)
• Plan a food drive in your department. If you want to provide a prize for the winner, contact Jere Witherspoon for more information.
• Clean out your closet and bring in your grocery bags.
• Consider making a financial donation at this link.

Drop off your donated items at the food bank during our hours of operation.

For more information, please contact Jere Witherspoon at jwitherspoon@georgefox.edu.

Our auction has historically been the greatest contributor to funding our trip and will feature gifts generously donated by community members and businesses. We are looking for people to attend!

Join us in the chapel on Friday, April 11, for a special Resonate concert featuring singer-songwriter and recording artist Jon Guerra. The doors will open at 6 p.m., and the concert will begin at 6:30 p.m.

Jon’s debut album, Little Songs, was released in 2015. He also composed music for Terrence Malick’s 2019 film, A Hidden Life. His first album of devotional music is Keeper of Days, which was followed by Ordinary Ways in 2023.

One review concluded, “as timely as it is, Guerra’s Ordinary Ways is also absolutely timeless. It’s basic Christianity, basic trust, basic worship, humbly set to song. It’s a slice of one bard’s devotional life, yet it joins a chorus of awestruck praise that has been unceasing for centuries and will echo on in the heavenly throngs, world without end.” Jon Guerra’s new EP, American Gospel, is out now.

The Resonate banner flies over monthly seminars, ad hoc concerts, and biennial conferences organized by the George Fox Apologetics Initiative to showcase the goodness, truth, and beauty of Christianity. Join the Resonate mailing list here.

Dr. Abraham Nussbaum is the Chief Education Officer of Denver Health, where he provides strategic direction to the education of 3,000 learners in 38 healthcare professions annually.
