I lost my glasses in EHS 102 Thursday, Feb. 23, and am wondering if either: 1) anyone has found them and could give me a call, or 2 ) if people could keep their eyes out for them in case they show up.
I really need them because it makes it harder for me to learn without them, and would appreciate anyone who finds them to hold them for me and call me at 503-504-1891 or e-mail me at dbrooks11@georgefox.edu.
Thanks,
David Brooks
