The Daily Bruin

A team of statistics students is trying to determine whether a person’s field of study has an effect on IQ. Please help them by filling out their survey.

Participants who choose to enter will be included in a drawing for a $10 Lyrics gift card!

Responses will be accepted through Sunday, Nov. 30, at 11:59 p.m.

Note: This IQ test provided is not professionally administered, and the results are prone to error. It should not be trusted to provide a perfectly accurate IQ result. Only George Fox students may participate. Participants may choose whether to record their name and email, which will not be recorded in connection with IQ scores. All information collected will be kept in confidence and deleted post-project.

Happy Thanksgiving, Bruins! Over Thanksgiving break, be sure to set aside some time to get a head start on financial aid for next school year!

Follow this list of essential to-do’s to make sure you’re accessing as much “free money” as possible in 2026-27:

1. The 2026-27 FAFSA is open and should be submitted ASAP! Have questions? Check out our FAFSA Frequently Asked Questions page and our Tips and Tricks for the FAFSA article, or schedule a FAFSA Help Session with your financial aid counselor.
2. Oregon residents can now apply for OSAC Scholarships. One application grants access to more than 600 scholarships totaling more than $10 million. Need help? Check out our OSAC Scholarship Tips and Tricks blog and our OSAC Scholarship Guide.
3. All returning traditional undergraduate students can apply for George Fox Donor-Funded Scholarships. Submit by Feb. 17 for the chance to win a $500 Early Bird Scholarship (getting the application done early is strongly encouraged, as some scholarships require additional materials which will not appear until after the main application is submitted).
4. Look through this Outside Scholarships page for links to regional and national scholarship search databases.
5. Check out our Scholarship Resource Folder for valuable templates, tips and timelines.
6. Schedule an appointment with the Academic Resource Center for individual help with scholarship essay writing. Students who used this service last year received thousands of dollars in scholarship awards, and more than 60% of participants who did not receive a scholarship the year before received one for the first time after working with the ARC!

If you have any questions, contact financial aid before the break! We are in office through Wednesday, Nov. 26, on the first floor of the Stevens Center.

Is a new digital divide emerging – not just between those who can and can’t use AI, but between those who trust and distrust each other because of it?

Join us at noon tomorrow (Wednesday) for an interactive webinar that explores how AI is reshaping workplace relationships and what it means for trust – among colleagues, teams, and even between humans and machines.

Together, we’ll tackle two key questions:

• As AI joins the team, who do we trust more – the human or the machine?
• How is AI transforming trust between coworkers?

Don’t miss this opportunity to reflect, engage, and reimagine the future of workplace trust in the age of AI.

You can register here.
