Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR), a national recognized suicide prevention training.  This training is being offered via collaboration between the Student Counseling Center and Dean Jaye Cee Whitehead. This empirically-validated training will equip you to recognize the warning signs, clues, and suicidal communication of people at risk as well as gain the skills to act and help save a life.

QPR training also includes important information about resources at Pacific as well as education about making referrals and navigating boundaries while supporting someone in distress.

It takes all of us to create a great Orientation experience! Join colleagues from across campus Aug. 28-30 in welcoming our newest students by signing up for an Undergraduate Orientation shift.

Pacific University faculty and staff are invited to shop at the Adidas Employee Store this month!

Please be aware of upcoming temporary closures for Parking Lot G (between Walter & McCormick Halls) and Parking Lot D (between Price Hall & Tennis Courts) to accommodate student move-in for the Fall semester 8/10, 8/18, and 8/28

Parking Lot C is currently under construction as part of a campus improvement project.

We're looking for staff who have an interest in serving on one of the 11 open staff positions across six University Standing Committees. This is a great way to connect with your peers and support our awesome Boxer community. Nominations are due Friday 8/7.
