Rent your textbooks

Wednesday, August 9th, 2017

Ninety percent of fall textbooks are rent-eligible now at georgefoxshop.com.

With our rentals you can:

  • Save 40 to 80 percent off the retail price
  • Write and highlight – just don’t damage the book
  • Convert to purchase by simply paying the difference anytime

At the end of the semester avoid the hassle of shipping by simply checking the book in at the Bruin Store. If you haven’t rented, you don’t know what you’re missing!

Questions? Contact Michael Simmons (msimmons@georgefox.edu).

Employee Empowerment, Advancement building has a new name: West Offices

Tuesday, July 4th, 2017

The building housing the Employee Empowerment (formerly HR) and University Advancement offices has a new name: West Offices. Located on the western edge of campus, across from the Sheridan Street House and Meridian Street House, it was formerly known as the “Minthorne Office Building.”

The name was changed, in part, to avoid confusion with Minthorn Hall, the Minthorne Gallery and Minthorne Conference Room. The building is leased, which is why it is not named after a person or family.
