The Daily Bruin

The Office of Undergraduate Admissions is hosting Bruin Preview today (Friday). With about 600 visitors expected on campus, we are asking George Fox students and employees to help extend the Be Known promise throughout the day. Here’s what you can keep in mind:

• Guests will be arriving on campus this morning between 7:30 and 8:15 a.m. and will fill all the main campus parking lots. Students and employees are encouraged to take advantage of street parking and the Morse lot (near softball fields).
• Be mindful of guests in your housing area. We will have tours circulating through Newlin, Edwards, Gulley, Pennington, and HMS from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tour groups will be viewing dorm lobbies and a room in each dorm.
• Plan for a much busier-than-usual lunch in Canyon Commons. Guests will be going through the main servery lines and will eat in the main dining area. If you see a family looking for a spot to sit, invite them to join you and help direct them to their next activity.
• Offer a helping hand with directions to students and their families!
