Pacific students have a new place to make their ideas take shape — the Boxer Makerspace. It’s an inviting new area on the second floor of the Tim & Cathy Tran Library where students can use 3D printers, a laser engraver, a vacuum formbox and other tools to create prototypes of their own design.
University inducts one new member of 1849 Society and 10 new members of President's Circle.

Back in the late 19th century, when Pacific University was an outpost of higher education in the Pacific Northwest, the school took part in an ignoble American experiment. With Pacific’s support, the Forest Grove Indian Training School brought Native American children to a nearby campus, where they were forced to abandon tribal culture in favor of learning the skills and religion of the dominant white society. Some didn't survive the transition.
Published by Pacific's Bee Tree Books, the book features essays from Pacific philosophy majors.

A textbook on technical theatre by the university's own Tal Sanders, and a primer for academic librarians, are the latest offerings available free of charge.
