Immersive experience in classrooms on the other side of the world teach PLU students how to learn on the fly, one of many skills they bring home with them.
said. “You have to go into a study abroad experience with a growth mindset, because it’s going to be hard. You have to be resilient. There is no going back home.” Education major Anna Parker ’17 said those unexpected challenges offered the most enriching learning opportunities. She said she learned to be resourceful during her time co-teaching with her mentor, since Namibian teachers often must create any of the learning materials they use from scratch — such as letters that adorn the walls or

Center Room 103)1:44 - Welcome1:45 pm - Investigation of the Phase Behavior of a Novel Diblock Copolymer Electrolyte System with Potential Applications in Lithium-ion Batteries by Atomic Force Microscopy Thomas Kolibaba, Senior Capstone Seminar Solid polymer electrolytes offer the possibility of combating some of the safety issues inherent in current lithium-ion batteries. However, in current polymer electrolytes, ionic conductivity is directly tied to segmental rearrangement of the polymer backbone

More than a century after PLU was founded by Norwegian immigrants, the university maintains its connection to the founders’ homeland through study away programs.
force in the United Kingdom. The interaction epitomizes the goal of the program at Bjørknes: to put local practitioners in front of the students and draw connections across borders. “Everything feels so relevant,” Corinne Donohue-Mercie ’20 said of the curriculum. Next up, the students headed to an informal brown-bag seminar ― a theoretical debate between faculty members. Students lounged on orange couches, some snacking on their lunches, as their professors pitted optimism against pessimism

Two years before he founded the only local peace prize in the nation, Thomas Heavey ’74 was in the middle of a war.
, regarded as the voice of black Tacoma for more than 30 years, mentored two generations of black civic leaders, serving as a vital force in Tacoma’s 50-year drive for justice and diversity. The organization honored Dixon as its 2015 laureate in conjunction with the 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King’s receipt of the Nobel Peace Prize. Theresa Pan Hosley Hosley was nominated for her initiative, persistence and long-term leadership of Tacoma’s Chinese Reconciliation Project Foundation. The

their formation in November 2016, the task force has been focusing on financial help for students and outreach to the PLU community. Like Kim, who could not take out any loans due to his immigration status and had to work his way through school, financial means are of great concern for many undocumented students. The task force partnered with PLU librarians to create a library for all students who cannot afford textbook costs. Thomas Kim '15 “We recognize that access to course materials intersects
