    religious and historical tradition of Lutheranism, this does not and cannot mean that we all have to understand these ideas in the same way. Like the non-Huguenot villages of Le Chambon, some of us at PLU may connect and identify with these ties that bind drawing on our own experiences, histories, traditions and spiritual views. Nevertheless we, as a faith community, do share these commitments even if we act on them differently. Maintaining these ties that bind will also mean being attentive to our

  • Originally Published 1996 Introduction Like other disciplines such as English and Sociology, Foreign Languages also have a history in the United States which is linked to the changing values of society as a whole. The discipline of foreign language teaching has evolved over the last…

    personalization of language study brought about by the emphasis on communication in recent years, a traditional instructional relationship still dominates. In the foreign language classroom, the teacher’s language competence, reinforced by the students’ relative linguistic incompetence, can lead to the teacher’s over-controlling the production of meaning. Teachers must actively resist this tendency. Feminist pedagogy can inform the practice of foreign language teaching by drawing on cooperation rather than

    culture to and native species conservation from 1850s to present in ColoradoIn this paper, I examine the troubling history of the greenback cutthroat trout, a Colorado state fish, which has has been the focus of conservation efforts from Colorado Parks and Wildlife in recent times. Drawing from the disciplines of environmental history and biology , I study the impact of the pike Peak Gold Rush, the accompanying rapid urbanization of the landscape, the influx of eastern settlers that led to a higher

  • Raphael Lemkin’s dedication to the punishment and prevention of genocide, primarily through international legal intervention, was founded on a belief in the fundamental rights of all peoples.

    structures of the modern world function by drawing lines, enforcing labels, building binaries, and constructing logics that are meant to describe all things perfectly. To be sure, it can be useful to label, draw lines, articulate binaries, and form logic—a world that discarded each mental process completely would be incomprehensible. Genocide is not solely the product of logic, its labels, and the subsequent hierarchy of meaning to which they give rise: it is the result of a totalized, enforced version

    , the synthesis of these compounds has been drawing attention in order to optimize the production and specialization of the medications. In the past, hydroxyurea synthesis has been achieved by various methods, including the utilization of carbamates, carbamoyl azides, and phosgene pathways, however each of these routes fall short with regard to environmentalism in their procedural approaches. The synthesis of hydroxyureas through mechanisms containing DMDTC (dimethyl dithiocarbamate) as a reactant

  • Rodion A. Zhuravlev, Senior Capstone Seminar Solid polymer electrolytes are a safer alternative to the current electrolytes found in lithium-ion batteries.

    strategy to combat this trend has been proposed which involves trapping CO2 emissions at their source, and/or drawing CO2 out of the atmosphere, known as carbon capture. An extension of this strategy involves use of the captured CO2 as a reagent to produce methanol (for fuel as well as other purposes). This review examines some of the chemical and technological barriers to making this strategy viable. Three primary barriers are examined: capturing CO2, producing the hydrogen gas necessary to convert

    (WHO), in responding to COVID-19?” Drawing from the disciplines of international relations and development studies, the lecture will: 1. Introduce concepts regarding global governance and cooperation; 2. Explain what the WHO is and its varied responses (and results) in response to COVID-19 and other disease outbreaks (i.e., the 2014 Ebola outbreak); and 3. Explore the possibilities and complications that arise through global cooperation in times of crisis, especially in the context of global
