This is the third Fulbright teaching award for me… previously in Kampala, Uganda and Baku, Azerbaijan. In both of these cases, I was much more a student than teacher. What will you miss at PLU? I will sorely miss watching the growth of my 2014 first-year advisees who are graduating this year. 😉 Dr. Jeffrey Bell-Hanson, Director of Orchestral Activities, will be researching an historic piano.

After the summer-school adventure ends, both already have interviews lined up for the school year, they said. “The time in Namibia really made my future clear,” Allen said. “I know I want to be a teacher

  • academic demands, such as timed homework and quizzes, in-class notes and overall course load testing stressful (25; 30), despite being realistic in expecting to be challenged (27).
