The Daily Bruin

We are in need of a designer who is excited to partner their technical skills with our marketing needs.

We are doing a complete overhaul of all our housing floor plans (50-plus) and looking for marketing materials to help advertise a new housing software system. We have allotted 120 paid hours toward this internship.

A majority of the work will need to happen in the fall, with two to five hours per week. The intern will be paid minimum wage and be required to keep track of time. The intern will report directly to the director of university housing (who also co-owns a local design firm).

To apply, submit a cover letter to kgriffith@georgefox.edu explaining what you have to offer and what you want to learn, a resume, and either a personal website or three examples of finished work.

Questions? Contact Kayin Griffith at the above email address.

Looking for something to do in the evenings? Come join us at the soccer field (Austin Sports Complex) every Tuesday and Thursday for some Ultimate Frisbee at 9 p.m.!

See you there! Contact Isaak Swan (iswan15@georgefox.edu) with any questions.

We hope you are enjoying the new dining experience in Canyon Commons. We want to make you aware of a few things about this new space.

Students on a meal plan or using flex dollars can enter and eat in the main dining area, but cannot take food into the Bridge Cafe, as there is limited seating. Commuters or students not on a meal plan may eat their own meals in the Bridge Cafe, outside of the dining hall, or anywhere else on campus, including the Bruin Den and the Foxhole.

Please contact the Office of Student Life if you have any questions or concerns.

Effective July 1, the MLRC and Portland Center libraries are now only accepting debit and credit cards to purchase print cards. No more digging in your pockets or wallet for that extra change to purchase a print card. You can now purchase the print card you need with your debit/credit card. The library will accept cash or checks for other library purchases.

All IT purchases are now paid with a debit or credit card. They not only accept your debit or credit card, but Apple and Android Pay is also available. So if you need a new ID card, power adapter or to pay for those unexpected repair parts, you will no longer need to provide cash or a check. Just put it on the card.

Please note: ID cards will no longer be charged to student accounts.

Questions? Contact the Service Desk at servicedesk@georgefox.edu.

Interested in joining the handbell choir? We’re looking for ringers for the 2016-17 year, and we’d love for you to join us! We meet once a week, on Thursdays from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in Ross 219.

Our first rehearsal, on Thursday, Sept. 1, is a handbell “open house” for you to come try out ringing in an open, no-pressure environment. Come join us and see if ringing in a handbell choir is right for you!

Ringing handbells has numerous benefits, including:

• Enjoying participation and building confidence making music in a small ensemble
• Exploring the skills of handbell playing through rehearsal and performance
• Building rhythmic and sight-reading skills, and
• Growing in ability as a musician using handbells and a variety of musical styles and techniques

If you have any questions, feel free to email me at barefootcomposer@gmail.com. Otherwise, I hope to see you Thursday!

Sincerely,
– Chris Reed, Director
