The Student Collective has arrived! Pick up your free copy of the yearbook on Monday, April 24 (Dead Day), between noon and 5 p.m. We will be on the patio outside of Canyon Commons, so come prepared to blast some music, hang out, and reminisce about the school year that is coming to a close.
Contact Casey Hastings (chastings13@georgefox.edu) if you have any questions.
If you have found items around campus, and have yet to turn them in to the lost and found, please get them to the security office as soon as possible so that the owners can claim them before the end of the month.
If you have lost items this spring, please be sure to check for them at security before you leave for the summer. When checking out of your on-campus residence, please do a thorough search of your dressers, closets and kitchens, as custodians found a large amount of forgotten items when cleaning the rooms last May.
Any left-behind items will not be kept all summer, as the lost and found isn’t large enough to store them for four months. All items not claimed by their owners will be donated to charitable causes on Monday, May 1, so please stop by the security office during the next three weeks!

Join us for a special theatre production, Falling, playing in Wood-Mar Auditorium today and tomorrow (Friday and Saturday). The show begins at 7:30 p.m. both nights.
This show is about a day in the life of a family with a severely autistic son and the delicate balance that is tested when a family member from out of town comes to visit. Each family member tries to find equilibrium between what’s best for the family and what is best for themselves.
According to the playwright, “The play bravely speaks a truth about love and family and about hopes and dreams. It asks, ‘How do you love someone who is difficult to love?'”
Tickets are $3. The production is directed, designed and performed by students. Please join us in listening to and experiencing this story this weekend only!
