Description
-
An 2012 article from the Forest Grove Leader describing the return of three fragments of Boxer -- one ear, one foot and the tail -- to Pacific University. The article explains the significance of the bronze mascot, including the tradition of "Boxer Tosses," which consisted of a large group of students fighting to gain possession of Boxer. Throughout the years, parts of the Boxer were broken off. At the time this article was published, alumnus Don Metzger had recently returned Boxer's tail to Pacific. He explains how he obtained the tail and why it took him so long to return it. The main body of Boxer was missing from 1968-2024.
