The time has come once again to begin the process of selecting our undergraduate “Who’s Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities” nominees for the 2016-17 academic year.

For those of you who have contact with our undergraduate population, you have the opportunity to make nominations by selecting 20 students who you feel are worthy of recognition from the students who qualify for selection. These students are eligible for nomination and expect to graduate either midyear or spring (December 2016 or April 2017).

In addition, they all have a GPA of at least 3.50 and have turned in their application for degree. Other criteria for choosing a student include their demonstration of:

• Personal integrity
• Involvement in the George Fox community
• Service to the community at large

One-hundred-and-sixty-five students are eligible for nomination based on GPA alone. We will record your top-20 selections and determine the top-25 choices university-wide. We will then invite the top-25 students to respond. All students who respond will be awarded the “Who’s Who” honor.

Please note: There may be others who qualify to be on this list, but because they have not registered for commencement at the time of the selection process, they are not on this list.

To make your selection please select 20 students in the list on this survey. Please choose no more than 20 students.

Please contact Jere Witherspoon (jwitherspoon@georgefox.edu) in the student life office if you have any questions. Please mark your selection of 20 students no later than Friday, Nov. 11, 2016.

Fall Retreat is this weekend, and we are wanting to get as many people to come as possible! The retreat is Nov. 11-13 at Twin Rocks on the coast, and the cost is just $30.

This year’s theme is “Let Nothing,” which comes from Romans 8:38 where Paul says that he is convinced that “nothing can separate us from God’s love.” There are two tracks from which to choose – one led by professor Anderson Campbell and the other by Kaitlyn Ragan from the IDEA Center. Also joining us will be worship leader Tyson Motsenbocker, an artist from Seattle (you can find his music on YouTube, SoundCloud and iTunes).

This year, sessions will be an interactive experience. Rather than attending a sermon, students will engage in an activity that is tailored toward either an introverted or extroverted side. Since the sessions are staggered, students are free to chose any or all sessions they wish. The Saturday night session will be all together.

Twin Rocks has various options for activities, and students will have plenty of free time to go to the beach, do homework or just hang out! We’re so excited for you to come!

Here is the link to sign-up, which includes a link to pay with card, and here is a video link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email Jamie Barrett at jbarrett14@georgefox.edu.
