Joey Foos '20 builds community in Bergwall Hall at Taylor University

 












Joey Foos '20 is living out his calling as a hall director at Taylor University. Foos is in his second year at Taylor, and serves a mentor for the students in Bergwall Hall, upholding the standards of Taylor and the Life Together Covenant (LTC). Foos has a great experience during his time at Malone, and was deeply impacted by his Resident Director (RD), and knew he wanted to do the same for others. 


Joey has a gift for meeting students where they are at, and he wants to build an intentional community at Bergwall Hall that does the same. The job for Foos does not come without difficulties however. Foos is trying to learn to set effective boundaries for himself, and wants to balance helping the students in Bergwall, with caring for himself. Foos finds great joy in helping those around him, and is using his gifts as a hall director to do just that. To read the full article on Joey, click here.

 Jennifer (Tubaugh) `94 `01 and Jason Bruce  `96 While we were both originally from Ohio, we grew up on opposite sides of the state. At Malone, Steve Styer, a mutual friend, convinced Jason to call me. He was sure we were a match! I had noticed Jason across the cafeteria multiple times, so I was pretty excited to get that call! Our first date was spent hanging out in The Barn chatting the evening away. We were together from that point on! Whenever Steve saw us together, he would say, "Ahhhh my creation!" We've been married for 27 1/2 years and have a beautiful 17 year old daughter. I'm so thankful that Steve gave Jason that little nudge to get things started.
