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.
Staple British bread brand Hovis has announced that they are to replace their famous ‘boy on the bike’ advert with a new epic TV commercial, showcasing over 100 years of the nation’s history. Part of Hovis’ huge relaunch campaign, the ad will be a mammoth 122 seconds long celebrating the 122 years since Hovis was established.
Filmed in Liverpool, with a cast of over 750 extras — many of whom are ordinary Brits cast off the streets, the ad depicts the highs and lows experienced by Britain during Hovis’ existence – including World War I, the suffragette movement, the first motor car, World War II, the 1953 coronation, the swinging sixties, England winning the World Cup, the 1980’s miners’ strike and the Millennium celebrations. It ends with the poignant message ‘As good today as it’s always been’ reinforcing Hovis’ strong brand heritage and marking the beginning of a new Hovis era.
