Special Veteran’s Day Ceremony
On Monday Nov. 11, Corban University will honor our nation’s veterans during a special Veteran’s Day ceremony. At 8 a.m. a special guest veteran will open the day with remarks to Corban students in front of the clock tower. This will be followed by an all-day reading of the names of U.S. military members killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Students, staff and faculty are encouraged to sign up in Student Life to read names during 30-minute intervals ending around 5 p.m.
Donations will be accepted for the family of Alex Hussey, cousin of Business Professor Shawn Hussey. Alex is a 21-year-old Army veteran who was on patrol in Afghanistan when he was hit by an improvised explosive device (IED). He lost both legs and a hand as a result. The funds will be used to help his family pay for travel and other expenses as Alex recovers in a military hospital in San Diego.
For more information, contact Sheldon Traver at straver@corban.edu or call 503-589-8197.
Got the Blues? You Are Not Alone
Ever feel like you are the only one who is sad in a world of happy people? Everyone experiences stress, sadness and anxiety from time to time – it’s part of life. These feelings often happen when you a lose a job, loved ones move away, during divorce, after a death in the family, or during retirement. But when changes in mood and behavior interfere with one’s ability to work, sleep, eat, and enjoy once pleasurable activities, it could be a sign of depression. National Depression Screening gives people the opportunity to take a free, anonymous questionnaire assessing their risk for mood and anxiety disorders and provides referral information for treatment.

An Important Message from Carol in the Mail Room:
To all you wonderful students I adore, this is for you:
When you come to the mail room and say you have an email notification, that does not necessarily mean you have a package or a letter. If your email has an attachment that means you have a returned paper, not a letter or package. However, if you do have an item to pick up, it will read “You have an ITEM to be picked up”. Although I love seeing you all, save yourself the disappointment and read your email first!!!
REGISTER FOR ISRAEL STUDY TOUR

It’s also next to Jaffa, or Biblical Joppa where Jonah caught a ship for Tarshish and Peter was used by the Lord raise Tabitha (Dorcas) from the dead.

That is just the start of our life-changing adventures in the Holy Land. We’d love for you to go with us.
