George Fox University is excited to welcome a freshman football player with an inspirational story. As many of you may have read in this Oregonian story by John Canzano, Rudy Hughes plans to join our campus community after serving as a major supporter of his mother as she battled cancer during his high school years in West Linn. In part because of the financial hardships incurred with her treatment, the family is seeking loans and has started a GoFundMe account to help cover the cost of college.
Unfortunately, the NCAA has strict guidelines for student-athletes that prohibit university employees from funding their education. In short, if you are an employee of George Fox, it is a violation of NCAA rules to donate to Rudy’s account, and doing so jeopardizes his eligibility to play football.
We are obviously excited Rudy will be joining us, as he has exhibited tremendous character in trying circumstances, but we also do not wish to hurt his chances of suiting up for the Bruins this fall. Please refrain from donating to the GoFundMe account if you are a George Fox employee.

When the Bruins play at home, you can count on a packed stadium. It takes a village to make our football games the success that they are, and we’d love to have you join our team of incredible volunteers, the Bruin Brigade. All volunteers will receive lunch at each game they volunteer, free entry into the game and a T-shirt.
If you’re interested in joining the Bruin Brigade as a ticket seller or at the information table, send an email to Sarah Reid (sreid@georgefox.edu) and she’ll get you connected.

Staff, administrators, faculty members and adjuncts: Is your hang tag permit in tatters, or even worse, is it missing? Is your adjunct permit from 2012? Never fear because new, more durable staff and faculty hang tags are coming this summer!
The last details are being finalized on a new vehicle registration database that you will access via MyGFU. All employee and adjunct hang tags will become invalid once the new system is in place, so please watch The Daily Bruin announcements for how this new database will be unrolling within a few weeks.
A bit more information will be needed when you register, so once the system is live, please note the information that is being requested and have it all on hand when you access the database to register. If you have put in a request for a staff or adjunct permit within the past month or so, it won’t be fulfilled at this point due to the database switchover. We will be sending out directions once the system is live, so keep watching here for all of the information!
Portland employees: If you regularly come to the Newberg campus, we would like you to register as well. If you only work at the Portland Center, then there is no need to register.
Questions? Contact Nadine Kincaid at nkincaid@georgefox.edu.
