Last stop on our Route 66 ‘culinary adventure’: Illinois

Tuesday, August 1st, 2017

Join us today (Wednesday) for the last stop on Route 66: Illinois. We’ll be serving up Chicago-style hot dogs, on a poppy seed bun, topped with mustard, tomatoes, pickle spears, white onion, sweet pickle relish and celery salt, served with macaroni salad, snickers salad and fries!

With heat wave coming, take precautions to stay cool

Monday, July 31st, 2017

Have you seen the weather forecast? Temperatures are expected to exceed 100 degrees the middle part of this week, so Plant Services recommends you take precautions to ensure your office or living area doesn’t get too hot.

During the day, keep your windows and blinds closed. This will prevent your space from heating to the outside temperature. Temperatures are only supposed to get to about 70 degrees at night, so leaving your windows open overnight may not help cool things down. Use your best judgement to determine if doing so helps your situation.

Employees: If you are experiencing issues with your building’s air conditioning, please call Plant Services immediately.

Questions? Contact Dixie Downey at ddowney@georgefox.edu or ext. 2016.

Library upgrades its Primo search interface

Monday, July 31st, 2017

George Fox libraries are pleased to announce the release of a significantly improved interface for the Primo search and discovery tool.

Intended to provide a more intuitive and modern look-and-feel, the new interface provides easy access to a huge volume of books, media, newspapers, journal articles and more.

The old classic interface will remain available for several months before being permanently phased out.

Please send feedback and questions to library@georgefox.edu.

Register now for the last of the residential parking permits

Monday, July 31st, 2017

Residential students: If you have yet to register your vehicle, please do so right away, as the residential parking permits are going fast! Please allow up to two weeks for them to arrive to the mailing address you indicated. If you are arriving early for fall sports, the honors program, ASC, RA training etc., please be sure to use your George Fox address and mailbox number so your permit will arrive here when you do!

Commuters: The registration portal is ready and waiting for your vehicle registration! Please use either your George Fox mailing address and box number or the address that you will commute from as your “mailing address,” as it is getting to be too late to mail them to a home address if you don’t live locally. Please allow up to two weeks for your parking permit to arrive.
