overview of her research with nanomaterials to create better batteries, capacitors, and fuel cells. Dr. Rolison received a B.S. in Chemistry from Florida Atlantic University in 1975 and a Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1980 under the direction of Royce W. Murray. She joined the Naval Research Laboratory as a research chemist in 1980 and currently heads NRL’s Advanced Electrochemical Materials section. She is also an Adjunct Full Professor of Chemistry Debra

an ugly and destructive force, but an eloquent rage keeps us all honest and accountable. It reminds women that they don’t have to settle for less. So what if it’s true that Black women are mad as hell? They have the right to be. Cooper reminds us that anger is a powerful source of energy that can give us the strength to keep on fighting.” — Adapted from jacket.   Woodfox, Albert, and Leslie George.

? Dynamic compression experiments subject materials to unique thermodynamic conditions – very large compressions, high temperatures, and large deformations – on short time scales resulting in a rich array of physical and chemical changes. Understanding the material response at these extreme conditions is of central importance to fundamental science and spans the disciplines of Physics, Chemistry, Materials Sciences, Geo/Planetary Sciences, and Solid Mechanics.

biochar materials to water purification and soil amendment. Research projects include the growth of biomass impacted through soil amendment, the creation and purification of biofuels from organic matter, and the purification of wastewater and lagoons using biochars. Complementary workshops will also be included that emphasize career paths in environmentally focused fields with discussions on running a small business and entrepreneurial pathways.

force yourself to be the same as everyone else?” -Bethany Vigil ’27 Neurodiversity at PLU Last year, PLU had a new club emerge on campus: the Student Neurodiversity Club. The Student Neurodiversity Club is a community for those on campus who are neurodivergent. Before the only space on campus was the Office of Accessibility and Accommodation, so students created the club as another place to talk about their struggles and experiences going through college and life. #Lutescentercommunity Read Previous
