More Information for Club Leaders

Clubs and Community Standards

George Fox University holds its club members and leaders to a high standard of behavior in accordance with its Christian values and community standards. If a club acts in a way that seems out of step with these values and standards, we encourage you to contact the club leaders directly before contacting the university administration.

In the spirit of the Gospel of Matthew 18:15-17, we encourage the charitable resolution of differences between individuals. If further action is necessary, you can contact the current Director of Clubs, Maliah Noemi Aldan (maldan21@georgefox.edu) or the Assistant Director of Clubs, Tommy Lewandowski (tlewandowski24@georgefox.edu) detailing how the club's actions conflict with George Fox’s community standards.
