The Bruin Bound Podcast is a podcast run by the George Fox admissions office. Last year, many of the episodes focused on the practical aspects of applying to college. The topics were mostly informational, centering on things like financial aid, transferring to George Fox, and activities available on campus.
This year, we are making a shift to focus more on the voices, experiences and stories of people at George Fox. We would love to hear your story. Whether it is something profound, funny, difficult, intense or ordinary, we want to hear what you have to share.
The podcast topics will cover everything from transition, to food, to fun memories with friends. If you have any questions or thoughts, please feel free to reach out to Satoshi Seth at sseth@georgefox.edu.
Come listen to George Fox social work graduate Tony Nehren (class of 2020) talk about his work in DHS Child Protection Services of Marion County, and specifically, how his work as a certified Native American and Alaskan Native specialist has transformed his understanding of what it means to be a human and an American citizen.
All are welcome to join us from 7 to 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 7, in Hoover 105. Contact Kim Rapp at rappk@georgefox.edu with any questions.
