  • breadth of his education, beyond his computer science major. He knows that being a better writer, for example, will help communicate his ideas in business. Originally, he wanted to be a doctor — “the definition of a solid job,” he says. It took some effort to convince his mom that he could build a company and still be a success. Now his parents, who gave him his love of learning and education, are proud. “I’m very persistent when I want something,” he says. “That’s just how I am.” Excel, experience I

  • cook for themselves. Some, like applied physics and computer science double major Tim Hurd ’13, who has lived off campus for more than a year, find themselves reinventing the meaning of cooking. Hurd draws his food-spiration from a book his grandma and mom bought him in high school.

More importantly, it made me believe someone who looks different than me could see themselves in the story, too. The Book of Psalms adds another layer of enchantment. A computer program recorded visual patterns of sound waves, drawn from audio recordings of psalms, chanting and sacred

  • lab could look like. The goal is for PLU’s simulation center to become accredited by the Society for Simulation in Healthcare, which currently lists fewer than 100 accredited centers in the nation. The concept of training nurses using sophisticated simulation models and equipment grew out of ideas employed in the aviation industry, Kushner said. Just as commercial pilots train on computer-guided flight simulators, the idea behind the nursing lab is to give students a chance to learn, test and
