The Maker Hub’s Leatherworking Station isn’t just for leathersmiths! Located in the Vault, this station provides you with everything you would need for your next leather creation. You can find the tools to cut, stitch and dye leather all in one place. You can even add a special touch with the laser cutter on vegetable-tanned leather.

Check out the Maker Hub’s Wiki page for more information.

The Maker Hub exists as a resource and creative outlet for the entire George Fox community (yes, including non-engineers!). We are looking for student aces. A student ace is simply an expert on a piece of equipment who helps train other students on the usage of that equipment and gains extra privileges within the Maker Hub.

Please email makerhub@georgefox.edu if you would like to get connected or have any questions.

One of the off-campus program options for George Fox students is the Oregon Extension, deep in the Cascades of Southern Oregon.

It’s a 17-credit fall semester where students live in cabins heated with wood stoves and experience a different way to learn, one course at a time. Everything is designed to work on habits of deep learning and learning without the frenzy.

At the OE, the internet is not a way of life. Instead, there is a big vegetable garden. Chickens, turkeys, milking goats, and cheese-making are part of community life. After intensive periods of study, students get off campus to backpack in rugged mountains, relax at the Oregon Coast, and explore San Francisco.

A professor from the OE will be on campus Tuesday and Wednesday, April-19, at a table in Canyon Commons on Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., and hosting an info session in Stevens 109 on Wednesday from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. Find out more at oregonextension.org.

Credit can be earned in environmental studies, art history, literature, political science, religious studies, history, psychology, biology, sociology, and philosophy.

Do you have stress, aches, pains, or just want to feel relaxed? Come by to get a massage from a doctor of physical therapy student!
