Join us for a special theatre production, Falling, playing in Wood-Mar Auditorium today and tomorrow (Friday and Saturday). The show begins at 7:30 p.m. both nights.
This show is about a day in the life of a family with a severely autistic son and the delicate balance that is tested when a family member from out of town comes to visit. Each family member tries to find equilibrium between what’s best for the family and what is best for themselves.
According to the playwright, “The play bravely speaks a truth about love and family and about hopes and dreams. It asks, ‘How do you love someone who is difficult to love?'”
Tickets are $3. The production is directed, designed and performed by students. Please join us in listening to and experiencing this story this weekend only!
Contact JeanneAnn Faris (jfaris15@georgefox.edu) with any questions.

Hello all,
For my JOUR 475 class, I am writing an article on the Newberg Transportation System Plan (TSP), a continuing project dedicated to improving the roads and transportation in the Newberg area.
I am trying to find out what mode of transportation and what roads are regularly traveled by students, as well as what percentage pay Oregon taxes. Answering all questions would help me greatly.
Thanks!
