Alumni Sing in Chapel
On November 7th, 43 George Fox alumni took the stage of Bauman Auditorium at the start of Chapel to sing the official college song, "Close Beside Chehalem's Mountain..." to our current students. Below you can watch the performance and see how the students reacted to the song that hadn't been heard on campus for nearly twenty years!


The Oregonian newspaper sent a reporter and videographer to document the special occasion. To read the article, click here. You can watch the video that was put together by the Oregonian below.



sheet music of the George Fox college song
The College Song of George Fox
Written in 1904 by students J. Ray Pemberton (class of 1906) and Cecil J. Hoskins (class of 1907) with music by then music professor Clifford W. Kantner, "Close Beside Chehalem's Mountain..." became the anthem of the college for generations of students. The last time the song was sung on campus was at the Centennial Celebration in 1991. Today, many students, are unaware that such a song exists.
