The Daily Bruin

Please regularly use consideration for students, employees and visitors with mobility aids or limitations.

Here are some guidelines:

• Unless you have a need to use a larger, accessible bathroom stall, please leave those available for those who need them.
• Do not park in designated accessible parking spots without an appropriate placard.
• Please try not to block hallways, sidewalks, curb-cut ramps, or passageways, even temporarily. Any of these cause unnecessary delays and/or unsafe conditions for those who use walkers, wheelchairs, canes, or have other mobility restrictions.

Thank you for your care of our community! Contact Andrea Byerley at abyerley@georgefox.edu with any questions.

George Fox University Theatre welcomes the university community to its production of The Hijabis. Performances in Wood-Mar Auditorium are scheduled as follows:

• Friday, April 8, at 7:30 p.m.
• Saturday and Sunday, April 9-10, at 2 p.m.

Synopsis
Maya, Nadia and Leen, three best friends from college, are now living their mid-20s dreams in suburban Chicago. Leen is a fashion designer who owns a fashion boutique. Maya works as an office assistant in a dental office, and Nadia is a teacher at a local Montessori school.

Life after college isn’t what any of the women expected, but what unites them in their struggles is their love for ice cream, their penchant for laughter, and their commitment to wearing their hijabs as a reflection of their faithfulness to God. Unfortunately, their lives are upended when their mosque is desecrated by locals from the community. Their responses to this event change the course of their lives.

Special Ticket Options for Students, Faculty and Staff
Students may acquire free tickets for our 2 p.m. Saturday, April 9, performance in Wood-Mar Auditorium.
