A likeness of Sen. Barack Obama was found hanging in the George Fox University quad early Tuesday along with graffiti aimed at minority recipients of a scholarship program, the university president told The Oregonian this morning.
President Robin Baker said he plans to discuss the incident with the student body later this morning.
“We are a faith community driven by the teachings of Christ,” said Baker, who has presided over the Christian college for about a year. “We have to express love toward each other so it was a great disappointment that anything like this would happen.”
George Fox University, which is located in Newberg, was founded in 1891 by Quaker pioneers.
