As temperatures remain hot today through the weekend, be sure to keep your windows and blinds closed during the day. This will prevent your space from heating to the outside temperature.
And remember that 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.

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.

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.
