Esteemed George Fox students,

We are a small team made up of senior business marketing students, and in preparation for a career in marketing we were assigned to work with a real-world client on a marketing project.

We choose to analyze the Bruin Store to evaluate its current client base, with aspirations in understanding what students really want. With this, we hope to provide feedback and constructive criticism to the Bruin Store so they can improve their efforts in serving students.

Your help in completing this short five- to 10-minute survey will benefit the student population, and it will be greatly appreciated.

Bruin Store Survey

Thank you!

If you currently use Google Sites, you may have seen that Google has introduced a new version of Sites. In addition to the intuitive technology, integration with G Suite apps, and attractive design, the new Sites now includes the ability to track performance with Google Analytics, six new themes, and other helpful features.

The existing, classic version of Sites will continue to exist in parallel with the new Sites as Google adds capabilities that are similar to those found in the classic Sites.
