Unlike several of our peer institutions, George Fox currently has no partnership with a daycare facility near campus. Friendsview Retirement Community (next to campus) is exploring the idea of creating a daycare center.
Friendsview needs your help to determine the level of interest from George Fox students/employees in using the daycare service and in volunteering to ensure it is well-staffed. Click here to take the survey.
In addition to providing a paid service, Friendsview wishes to offer George Fox students the opportunity to earn daycare credit by working alongside volunteers and daycare coordinators. To make the daycare center well-staffed for each school/work day, a sufficient number of volunteers/credit earners will be needed.
The benefits of volunteering in the daycare include firsthand experience related to a class or future career and personal enrichment as you support the George Fox community. If you are interested in serving in this capacity, please click the link above.
Questions? Contact Corban Harwood at rharwood@georgefox.edu.
Thanks!
This Friday, April 21, the William Penn Honors Program student government will host a “Cinema Chat” beginning at 7 p.m. in the FoxHole.
We will chill for a great movie night, then transition into some casual discussion. There will be a bunch of snacks and drinks to enjoy. As always, the movie will be a surprise, but we will say that it’s a true cult classic.

Join us for a special theatre production, Falling, playing in Wood-Mar Auditorium this Friday and Saturday, April 21-22. 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.

If you are planning on doing an internship/field experience for credit this summer, the process to get that locked in starts now. All these credit requests need to be approved by several people on campus, and those approvals become difficult to obtain as the summer goes on and people stop checking their email regularly.
To make sure you get enrolled in your internship/field experience credits on time, submit your form through Handshake before you leave for the summer. Come talk to Kaitlyn Ragan in the IDEA Center if you have any questions about how to do this.
