Get New Names

will be honored this summer with the naming of the
two newest residence halls at George Fox.
The 120-bed Dave and
Becky Le Shana Residence Hall will open this fall on
the northeast side of campus. The new $7.4 million
building is going up near the 10-year-old University
Residence Hall, which will be renamed the T. Eugene
Coffin Residence Hall. The 124-bed University Hall
was built in 1996, the year George Fox College
changed its name to George Fox University.

Time to Change
Your Bruindata Password
George Fox University has adopted the practice of
changing passwords for secured access programs at
regular intervals. This is a recommendation from the
auditing firm Moss Adams that has been contracted by
the university to provide risk exposure
analysis.
All users with an
active Bruindata account, including alumni, will be
required to change their password by Feb. 26. On Feb.
27, any accounts with unchanged passwords will be
locked and the owner of the account will need to
contact the IT Service Desk (503-554-2569) to unlock
the
account. Prior to Feb. 27, you should visit
http://bruindata.georgefox.edu,
login and then use the "Change Password" button to
create a new login password. Thanks for your help in
keeping Bruindata
safe and secure.

help you locate an old friend, look up your own

transcript or update us.
