The George Fox University community is invited to a business lecture on Friday, Feb. 22, from 9:30 to 11 a.m. in Canyon Commons Room 101.

This special lecture will be given by Ms. Phuong Uyen Tran, deputy CEO of Tan Hiep Phat (THP) and author of Competing with Giants: How One Family-Owned Company Took on the Multinationals and Won. Ms. Tran leads THP in procurement, marketing, public relations and programs on social responsibility, and is a strong supporter of family-owned businesses and women in entrepreneurship.

In a modern-day “David and Goliath” story, THP – Ms. Tran’s family’s Vietnamese green tea company – said no to Coca-Cola’s $2.5 billion buyout offer and subsequently flourished into a billion-dollar business. Highlighting the leadership qualities and values her family held onto while weighing Coca-Cola’s buyout offer, she will show how this decision propelled the company to strong global growth while still recognizing and adapting to local consumer preferences.

Winter is here. Following is our process for announcing campus closure information. The provost will make the decision whether or not to close the Newberg campus, Portland Center and Salem site for daytime classes by 6:30 a.m. or 2:15 p.m. for evening classes. This applies to all days of the week, including Saturday. Decisions at the Redmond site will be made by the professor.

Major considerations are road conditions, ice, utility service disruption, and how long the severe weather or emergency is likely to last. To find out if a closure decision has been made when bad weather occurs:

1. Visit the George Fox flashalert.net page at http://flashalert.net/news.html?id=32 (This is the first site updated)
2. Listen to local radio and television stations. Each campus will be identified separately. (This info comes from Flashalert).
3. Call the George Fox University switchboard at 503-538-8383.

More information on campus closure policies can be found at georgefox.edu/closure.
