The Daily Bruin

The Students for Life Club is hosting Autumn Higashi tomorrow (Wednesday) at 6 p.m. in EHS 102 for her fall 2023 tour: “Planned Parenthood Betrays Women.”

Here is what Autumn has to say about the event: “This tour will encourage and inform pro-life students on how they can be an authentic support system for the pregnant and parenting mothers on their campus and their communities. Women deserve better than Planned Parenthood, and I am excited to bring that message to the West Coast.”

Bring your friends! We can’t wait to see you there! If you have any questions, you can email Abby at aantonov21@georgefox.edu.

Have you ever wondered whether you can recycle shiny wrapping paper? Or what actually happens to items once they get picked up by the recycling collection truck?

Tomorrow (Wednesday) is “America Recycles Day.” Our local recycling service, Waste Management, is hosting a virtual webinar from 6 to 7 p.m. where they will talk about what goes on behind the scenes at a recycling center, how to sort holiday waste correctly, and inspiration for creative “upcycled” gift wrapping.

The Stewards of Sustainability Club will be hosting a watch party in EHS 125, where we will tune in to the webinar together with popcorn and soda! Please arrive around 5:50 p.m. to get settled before the webinar begins.

Ben Bowman is a Democrat in the Oregon State Legislature. Reagan Knopp is a Republican political activist. They disagree … a lot! But they also work together to produce The Oregon Bridge, the best political podcast in the state.

How do they do it? How do they relate to their guests from across the political spectrum? How do they keep the podcast so upbeat and civil? What effect are they trying to have on Oregon politics? How much pushback do they get from people in the two major parties? What can we learn from their experience?

Come find out tonight (Monday) at 7:15 p.m. in Hoover 105. This event is sponsored by the George Fox University Civility Project. For further information, contact Ron Mock at civility@georgefox.edu.
