interactions with major scholars, the Kurt Mayer fellowship research and the Lemkin Essay Contest – by the end of my PLU career I estimate, conservatively, that I had spent 1000 hours reading, writing, and talking about Holocaust topics. That kind of effort was only possible because it was appreciated and funded by amazing people like the Powell, Heller, and Mayer families. That kind of effort was only possible because I had the teachers (and the librarians!) and the support to make it happen. Laura Brade

Survey and focus group responses show that most review participants have a high degree of satisfaction with and gratitude for their interactions with Campus Safety, an affirmation of Campus Safety’s recent efforts to center customer service in their work. We recommend that Campus Safety continue these customer-service oriented efforts by revisiting protocols for less frequent, but more serious calls for service

In their own words By Chris Albert Soon new PLU graduates will go out into the world. In the following, some Lutes share their stories of why they came to PLU, what their experiences have been and what’s the next chapter in their lives. More…
emphasis) Why PLU? My parents encouraged me to apply to PLU because they both studied here. I was initially interested in studying religion and philosophy, so PLU seemed like the perfect place for me. (I ended up getting “converted” to the English department at the end of the first semester.) But beyond that, I really just wanted to get a liberal arts education and the IHON program made PLU that much more appealing. The smaller class sizes, the frequent interactions with professors, and the seemingly

synthesized in a two step process using the precursor L-tryptophan. The first and rate determining step is catalyzed by tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) and then further modified by aromatic amino acid decarboxylase (AAADC). Under the control of a feedback regulation system, 5-HT levels in both intra- and extracellular are carefully maintained. The serotonergic system is essential for both central nervous system (CNS) and periphery. Interactions with various receptors gives 5-HT different functions. Due to

success rate increases to 92% (55/60). The results are believed to be due to interference of the homomeric forces present in amides which prevent the formation of heteromeric co-crystals until the reaction is saturated with co-former. We then synthesized and studied host-guest interactions between halogen bond donors and a benzyl-(1,2,4-triazole) functionalized macrocycle compound, c-hexyltetra(4-benzyl-(1,2,4-triazole))cavitand. Results showed a 4:1 guest:host ratio using UV-vis titration techniques

Right off the bat they’re willing to engage you when you find a topic or question that interests you. For me these interactions led to conversations about travel and research, and I have now completed two research fellowships at PLU. I have also visited Italy two times. For a kid from a small town in
