The Daily Bruin

The university and the community are invited to the 2017 Fall Faculty Lecture, “Earth, Solar Wind and Sun,” featuring Bob Hamilton, PhD, professor of physics, and recipient of the 2016-17 Undergraduate Faculty Achievement Award for Research and Scholarship.

Join us Tuesday, Oct. 17, for the presentation. The lecture runs from 6 to 7 p.m. in Hoover 105. Hamilton will discuss the recent eclipse and how this rare sight illustrates the sun’s intricate and dynamic role in shaping the larger, unseen environment of the earth. The sun shapes both the solar wind and the magnetic field which encompass our entire solar system. Highlights from research conducted by and with students at George Fox will be presented using graphics and animations.

Prior to the lecture that evening, the 2017 Fall Richter Student Scholars Symposium will be held from 5 to 6 p.m. in the Hoover lobby. Student scholars from the university’s graduate and undergraduate programs will present their research in a conversational poster format. Refreshments will be provided by the Faculty Development Committee.

On Wednesday, Oct. 11, starting at 8:30 a.m., Plant Services will be testing the smoke detector/elevator interface in all buildings with elevators on campus. The horn/strobes for the fire system will be disconnected but there will be some beeping from the main panels. During the test, the elevator in that building will be non-operational, so occupants will need to wait or use the stairs. The test duration for each building will vary depending on the complexity of the fire system but should be about 30 to 60 minutes on average. It could take longer if we encounter a malfunction.

These tests are required by the State of Oregon and are based on a deadline, so we apologize for any inconvenience. If you know of any individual or event that would prohibit this testing, please let the Plant Services office know at ext. 2010 and we will make every effort to make accommodations.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Plant Services office. Thank you for your cooperation.
