more academic disciplines. “Within the culture and fabric of PLU are these interdisciplinary approaches,” Teska said. “It makes us stronger.” A workshop sponsored by the grant on May 27 to 29 examined the state of Clover Creek. Workshop participants will look at data gathered each spring by the “Environmental Methods of Investigation” course, which charts the health of the creek and the community, and determine what’s changed, what needs to be done and how it can be done better.

natural world, and this grants, including the grants to Pacific Lutheran University, are an important part of that work,” said Dana Miller, senior program director for the Murdock Trust. The grants to PLU will fund two years of student-faculty research looking into the ecology of the Pacific Northwest, as well as species divergence in several Mississippi River tributaries. Each professor will work with four students (two each summer) over the next two years to both collect and analyze data. For

favorite parts was the data analysis. Her love of math has also been a way to serve the wider PLU community. “While completing these degrees, she also had time to be an SI (supplemental instruction) leader for precalculus in 2020 [and] to grade for multiple instructors,” said chemistry professor Dr. Andrea Munro. “She is an incredible student.” Jackie’s sense of initiative has also been developed by club activities outside the classroom. As an Outdoor Rec trip leader and Ultimate Frisbee coach for

fishes. My research involves field collection of specimens, DNA sequencing, and specimen-based morphological work. My past research projects have involved using morphological and molecular data to reconstruct evolutionary relationships, cryptic diversity, and spine morphology in madtom catfishes. I am currently working on the phylogeography of fishes distributed in the Mississippi Embayment, a region containing multiple lowland streams in western Tennessee and Mississippi. The goal of this project is

interpret quantitative information and use it to create and critique logic and data-driven arguments. Students will solve problems by interpreting quantitative information in context. Students will demonstrate the ability to work with mathematical notation, techniques, tools, and concepts. Students will create and critique logical arguments supported by quantitative evidence or symbolic relationships.

students” (Active Minds, 2020). What do we mean when we talk about “wellbeing,” and what are those actions faculty and GE can take “as helpers, not clinicians” that may also be compatible with their own wellbeing? This toolkit strives to address these questions by briefly synthesizing national data about what wellbeing is and why it matters, and by offering a range of strategies, pre-made tools, and draft language to support student wellbeing in the context of your courses.Defining WellbeingIn the book

) Disciplinary Breadth in Environmental Studies Each course explores the key content, ways of inquiry, conceptual framework and modes of communication of the discipline. Students take courses from each of three areas of study that provide an in-depth exposure to environmental issues within a discipline. The Environment and Science 8 semester hours These courses emphasize the understanding of scientific knowledge that underpins environmental issues.

Meanwhile, Pfaff will work with the Since the inception of “Can the Can” in October 2006, nearly half of PLU’s faculty and staff have opted to participate, giving up their personal trash cans in favor of recycling more. However, no data has been collected about the effectiveness of the campaign. Buchholz will survey faculty and
