  • TACOMA, WASH. (Nov. 8, 2016)- Gabri Joy Kirkendall ’09 studied political science and French languages and literature at Pacific Lutheran University. Now, she’s a published author and artist. Below is an edited discussion about her vocational journey and her experience creating hand-lettering books. Question: How…

    threatened by other artists. You will always gain more by giving support than if you try to stand on your own. My second biggest challenge has just been finding creative ways to educate myself. Since I don’t have a fine arts degree, when I started I had to teach myself everything from techniques to how to use Photoshop. It was very intimidating. Over the years, I’ve made it a priority to always keep learning something. I read blog posts, watch YouTube videos, buy books and even ask other artists how they

  • experiments,” reflected Rodriguez Hinojosa. “Once my plans are organized, I set up my experiment in the fume hood and get started on a reaction. My reactions usually are on a smaller scale and require various steps such as heating, stirring, separation, purification, and characterization. Separation consists of vacuum filtration or extraction via a separatory funnel. Purification consists of high vacuum or rotary evaporation, and finally, characterization techniques are Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and FTIR

  • April 19, 2010 Claim: The jury is still out about global warming Claire Todd, Visiting Assistant Professor of Geosciences and Environmental Studies Recent events such as the snowstorms in the eastern United States have caused some to question whether or not global temperatures are increasing. To address these questions, we can turn to the instrumental temperature record, a record of temperatures measured directly by humans for the past 130 years. These measurements, made with thermometers and

As a mental skills coach, what sort of things do you help the athletes with before they take to the field? My role centers on teaching skills of psychological skills for performance enhancement. This includes relaxation techniques, imagery, concentration and distraction control strategies, goal setting, team building, positive self-talk. I do not work in

  • ? Dynamic compression experiments subject materials to unique thermodynamic conditions – very large compressions, high temperatures, and large deformations – on short time scales resulting in a rich array of physical and chemical changes. Understanding the material response at these extreme conditions is of central importance to fundamental science and spans the disciplines of Physics, Chemistry, Materials Sciences, Geo/Planetary Sciences, and Solid Mechanics. Research activities related to the dynamic

  • Lute’s Antarctica photo earns national recognition Posted by: Kari Plog / August 3, 2017 August 3, 2017 TACOMA, Wash. (Aug. 4, 2017)— It's been more than a little hot on Pacific Lutheran University's campus this week. With temperatures creeping toward the 100s, one Lute is offering a reprieve with images of something a lot cooler.McKenna Morin ’19, a communication major, is a finalist in the annual photography contest through Photographer’s Forum magazine. Morin submitted a photo she took

  • Guard provides camaraderie, a sense of team, and a duty to serve,” says Justyn. Service to his community is an important part of Freeman’s life. “It is beneficial to help the community as a whole, just to give back,” he says “Nothing really exists in a vacuum. We can’t really do anything without the help of others.” This past November, Justyn served as the coordinator for PLU Nursing’s Delta Turkey Basket Drive, which provided Thanksgiving meals for 215 families. “Coordinating takes a lot of
