The Daily Bruin

“Look Professional; Put on Etiquette” is the theme for this year’s Etiquette Dinner and Professional Fashion Show!

This event is a guided etiquette experience for students in a dining setting. You will learn how to gracefully traverse the intricacies of eating a meal in a formal or business setting from an acclaimed etiquette consultant.

We will also be featuring a networking session with table hosts who are working professionals and a fashion show for the professional dress review.

Tickets available in Bruin Den and Career Services (Stevens Center, first floor).

For more information, please contact Career Services.

The undefeated Bruins (31-0) have reached the Final Four of the NCAA Division III Women’s National Basketball Tournament, and we will again host live streaming of their games this Friday and Saturday. The games will be contested at Hope College in Holland, Mich.

Join us in the Klages Dining Room on Friday, March 16, as we take on Amherst at 2 p.m. The Bruin Den will be running specials and we will be giving away door prizes and popcorn.

On Saturday, we will host streaming of either the third-place game at 1 p.m. or the championship game at 4 p.m. in Miller Gymnasium. We will have door prizes, concessions and free popcorn for the games in the gym.

In the case of both games, extra raffle tickets will be given away to those who wear George Fox/Blue Zone attire.

Questions? Contact Vangie Pattison at epattison@georgefox.edu.

Do any of you have experience as a line cook? Would you like to gain experience in the art of food service and catering?

The university’s Urban Services is seeking to help All Saints Episcopal Church in Portland, which is in need of a line cook and sous chef, plus a set-up and food serving team on the third Saturday of March and April. We are seeking six or seven students who are interested in participating in this service.

Every Saturday, the church serves lunch to 80-100 homeless people in Portland. They currently do not have anyone to help with the cooking this coming Saturday (March 17) and on April 22. Volunteers wouldn’t have to commit to both of these dates.

Ideally, we would like to put together a team of students who are interested in helping over the summer as well as during the semester.

Interested? Contact Mary Owen, Urban Services coordinator for Portland, at mowen10@georgefox.edu. I need to know before Wednesday so I can let them know if they will have help or not.

Thank you!
