Thank you for everyone who came to the women’s brawl Wednesday night – the Freshman had quite a surprise for all of us. They stole the bruin before the flash, and did not bring it (or show up) to the brawl. It’s awesome that it was stolen, but the ASC Supreme Court Chief Justice (Heather Eslinger) needs to needs to be informed of its whereabouts, and talk to the current holders about the next flash.
For all of you who are wondering, the rules are posted at:
http://www.georgefox.edu/alumni/brawl/rules.html.Â
To the freshman who have the bruin jr:Â
You must tell Jordan Phillips (the freshman rep) or Heather Eslinger.Â
There will be a redo of the women’s bruin brawl next Wednesday at 7pm.

The 10:40 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7, chapel in Bauman Auditorium will begin with a special presentation, coordinated by the Bruin Heritage Society. After a short video highlighting the university’s history, a group of dedicated alumni (from the 1930s through the 1960s) will sing the university’s official song, “Close Beside Chehalem’s Mountain.”
For many years the song, written in 1904 by several students, was taught to incoming students during orientation and sung after every sporting contest. More recently, the song has all but vanished from the campus.
The alumni who are participating are excited to share this piece of George Fox’s history with the current campus community. We hope you are able to attend and are touched by the love they have for their alma mater.
The Bruin Heritage Society is dedicated to preserving the history and traditions of George Fox University as well as connecting students with alumni. To find out more, e-mail bruinheritage@georgefox.edu.
