May is Asian American, Native Hawai’ian/Pacific Islander Heritage Month and, as always, the Intercultural Resource Center has compiled another digital document for engagement.
This resource has many recommendations to complement your summer plans (like a new playlist to listen to) and to get you excited for your return to campus in the fall (like taking part in community through the multicultural clubs).
As always, we want to hear from and represent you, so if you have recommendations for this month or future cultural heritage months, please let us know by filling out this form.
Happy Asian American, Native Hawai’ian/Pacific Islander Heritage Month, George Fox!
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Zanne Backous at sbackous@georgefox.edu.

At the end of every school year, many students have good, reusable items that they don’t want to take home. These items include clothing, blankets, kitchen supplies, small appliances, room decorations, small furniture, etc.
In an effort to keep the dumpsters from overflowing and to be better stewards of resources, the university collects these items through an initiative we call Phase 2 and gives them a second life. We’re happy to accept reusable items, today (Friday) through Sunday, April 28.
Collection barrels will be placed in dorm lobbies across campus. There will also be a drop-off location at Plant Services (#60 on the campus map) during normal business hours, in or near the receiving bay located to the left of the main entrance. Please place donated items in bags inside the barrels.
We do not accept:
- Trash
- Damaged, broken, or dirty items
- Undergarments or socks
- Items bigger than the barrel
- Liquids
- Chemicals (may be placed in a box or bag next to the barrels)
- Food (take sealed, unexpired food to the Bruin Community Pantry in Lewis Apartment #1)
There will also be a few extra-large dumpsters for trash located on campus. By law, computers, monitors, and TVs cannot go into the trash. They can be placed beside the barrels; please label them if they are broken.
Questions? Contact Gabe Morales at gmorales@georgefox.edu.

Every year, we ask current commuters for their feedback and reflections on the year. Linked here is access to our end-of-year survey, which will inform our strategies for next year. This is an opportunity for you to share your thoughts and have them considered in how we structure our support and resources for commuters.
At the end of the survey is a place to enter your name for a $25 gas card. We have multiple cards, and we will draw for them once the survey is closed.
