Unfortunately, due to the excessive heat this week, the Swing Dance Club’s Swing Over Summer event scheduled for tomorrow (Friday) has been canceled.

The club will still be hosting events on Aug. 20 and 27 at Jaquith Park from 6:30 to 8 p.m. All participants are welcome! The time and location for school-year events will be announced shortly.

If you have any questions or need clarification, feel free to email the club’s president, Mark Berglin, at mberglin19@georgefox.edu.

The physician assistant program is in need of eight volunteers to help our first-year PA students on Thursday, Aug. 19. We are running a session of Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) from 8 a.m. to about 1 p.m. and will have three different clinical scenarios requiring actors to complete.

The scenarios will include our PA students asking you questions or performing a physical exam on you (and sometimes both). We will provide food and beverages to keep you happy and comfortable. We truly appreciate any help you can provide for this learning opportunity for our students!

If interested, please contact Tim Aylward (taylward@georgefox.edu).
