The Daily Bruin

We are privileged to welcome guitarist Doyle Dykes in concert at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow (Saturday) in Wood-Mar Auditorium.

Dykes is arguably the most gifted fingerstyle guitarist alive today, and he has dedicated himself and his gifts to the Lord, blending Scripture and inspirational stories into his playing. You won’t want to miss this rare opportunity to spend an evening with him.

In addition to his evening performance, Dykes will be hosting a guitar clinic Saturday afternoon from 1 to 3 p.m. in Ross 208. To reserve a spot, contact Emma Rieth at erieth@georgefox.edu.

These events are both free and open to the public.

The IT department currently has 14 21.5-inch iMacs (2013) for sale for $75 each at the IT Service Desk.

They all have 16GB RAM, 500 GB SSD, and an i5-4570R 2.7 processor. The computers have been reset to factory settings, are installed with OS 10.15 Catalina, and are not upgradable. Best uses are for web browsing, streaming and applications that do not require a newer operating system. Some versions of MicroSoft Office will not run on these devices.

Please note that these computers are sold “as is.” We do not provide support or maintenance on these machines, or perform updates of any kind, and cannot guarantee the manufacturer will have parts available. Each computer comes with a power supply, keyboard and mouse.

Computers are being sold on a first-come, first-served basis at the Service Desk. We are not able to hold computers unless payment has been made. We accept debit and credit cards only for payment.

Our hours of operation can be found at it.georgefox.edu.

If you have any questions, please contact the Service Desk at servicedesk@georgefox.edu.

We are recruiting former missionaries who have started a business after returning from the mission field as interviewees for a study on the role of entrepreneurship in re-entry adjustment.

The interviews will take place by Zoom (or in person, if local) in the month of May, and run about 20 to 30 minutes. We believe participants may also benefit from sharing their stories.

If you know someone who fits this description, please kindly connect them to Tim Veach, associate professor of management here at George Fox, at tveach@georgefox.edu.
