Scholarships for Graduate Studies at the Institute for Shock Physics Posted by: alemanem / October 27, 2020 October 27, 2020 Understanding Materials at Extreme Conditions Graduate students from a range of disciplines (Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, and Geo/Planetary Science) have a unique opportunity to study the response of materials at extreme conditions with the internationally renowned scientists at Washington State University (WSU). Working within their

an ugly and destructive force, but an eloquent rage keeps us all honest and accountable. It reminds women that they don’t have to settle for less. So what if it’s true that Black women are mad as hell? They have the right to be. Cooper reminds us that anger is a powerful source of energy that can give us the strength to keep on fighting.” — Adapted from jacket.   Woodfox, Albert, and Leslie George.

? 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.

force yourself to be the same as everyone else?” -Bethany Vigil ’27 Neurodiversity at PLU Last year, PLU had a new club emerge on campus: the Student Neurodiversity Club. The Student Neurodiversity Club is a community for those on campus who are neurodivergent. Before the only space on campus was the Office of Accessibility and Accommodation, so students created the club as another place to talk about their struggles and experiences going through college and life. #Lutescentercommunity Read Previous

Research projects include the growth of biomass impacted through soil amendment, the creation and purification of biofuels from organic matter, and the purification of wastewater and lagoons using biochars. Complementary workshops will also be included that emphasize career paths in environmentally focused fields with discussions on running a small business and entrepreneurial pathways.
