    , prevention and intervention protocols and programs to address violence exposure, traumatic stress, anxiety and substance abuse. Dr. Suarez blends research and practice in academic, clinic and community settings. She develops and evaluates research and clinical programs for youth impacted by trauma and adversity, tailoring treatment approaches to families of diverse ethnic, racial and socio-economic backgrounds experiencing community violence, substance abuse problems. She is the project director of the

  • A year of achievement and a Decade of Change Dear Colleagues and Friends, It is a great joy for me to welcome each of you to University Fall Conference as we prepare to launch the 2010-2011 academic year, the 121st year in the life of…

    , professor of chemistry, received another in a long series of Natural Sciences Foundation grants–this one for $98,000 for his research in polymer chemistry. Archaeologist Don Ryan, a PLU alumnus and a faculty fellow in humanities, published “Beneath the Sands of Egypt” to critical and popular acclaim. These are just a few examples of faculty scholarship, to which one can add the dozens of performances by our music faculty, creative works by our faculty in art and theater, as well as the contemporary

  • grow. This talk will describe my undergraduate research group’s synthesis and characterization of polymer materials for use in lithium-based batteries. Key to potential improvements is incorporating the ability to transport ions through an organic polymer. In the near future, materials like these may allow batteries to be less flammable, lighter, more flexible, and potential increase their energy or power capacity. In 2019 Dr. Dean Waldow was awarded the Lynwood W. Swanson Scientific Research Award

  • &WCo is located in a medium-sized building with no obvious logo, which makes it a little hard to recognize as a power company. But it’s style blends perfectly with the Parkland neighborhood and its internal facilities are very convenient to help people quickly complete the business they need. The entrance and parking lot are very spacious and can easily meet the parking needs of all customers. And, if the building or its hours are inconvenient for customers, they can pay for utilities and apply for

  • Dean Waldow's Research Group Teaching My teaching load generally consists of physical chemistry, polymer chemistry, and instrumental analysis. Sometimes I teach in the general chemistry area as well or other areas as department needs arise. Courses I have taught include: Chem 115, Gen Chem I and Lab Chem 116, Gen Chem II and Lab Chem 341, Physical Chemistry I Chem 343, Physical Chemistry I Lab Chem 342, Physical Chemistry II Chem 344, Physical Chemistry II Lab Chem 410, Introduction to Research

  • Dean Waldow's Research GroupOur research group also often supports an outreach activity with MESA [see their website] during my summer research program to help introduce high school and junior high students to chemistry with an emphasis in polymer science and soft materials. MESA students visit over the course of a day with additional activities also including college preparatory activities. We start with an overview of the activities the students will take part in. Then my undergraduate group

  • Upon first glance, it is easy to dismiss Collison Realty’s quaint office building as just another house in Parkland. The little house blends in nicely with the other houses on the street. It’s not until you notice the logos in the windows or the hanging out front that you realize this is a small business. However, despite its small size, the unassuming house plays an important role for equally unassuming Parkland community. Collison Realty was started in 1965 by Grace and Dayle Collison. The

  • shop features three blends and four brew methods, spotlighting a new local or regional roaster each month. Everything in the business model is precise. Lauren (Buchholz) Reese ’09 said she and her co-owners measure water and coffee beans down to one-tenth of a gram. They even tested a variety of lid types before picking the perfect one. “There aren’t very many,” Reese said, noting that they landed on one that offers more “nose room” and mirrors the experience of drinking out of a mug.
