The climbing wall in the Hadlock Student Center is officially open for the year!
Bouldering is available anytime the student center is open, and roped hours are Monday through Friday from 7 to 10 p.m. and Sunday from 3 to 6 p.m. All climbers will need to update certifications for the new academic year.
For bouldering, you’ll need to complete the new gym orientation process prior to using the facility. This will include watching this Climbing Wall Orientation video and taking a short assessment before being cleared to climb. Bouldering certifications from the previous year will be honored through Sept. 1.
If you’re looking to use the ropes, please check in with the climbing wall staff during designated hours for a belay assessment, or sign up for a Belay Fundamentals class through IMLeagues.com if you’ve never climbed before.
We’re excited to see you come in and try all the new routes! Questions? Email studentcenter@georgefox.edu.

The Undergraduate Student Handbook is a significant resource that articulates the lifestyle standards, community policies, and other aspects of the George Fox community. We hope that you find this searchable handbook to be an informative and helpful tool.
This handbook may be updated or amended at any time by action of university personnel. Students are responsible for reviewing and adhering to all published university policies.
Questions? Contact Kristi Welker at kwelker@georgefox.edu.
