it very easy for me to use Sakai to prepare learning experiences for my students that they can do on their own — listening, following musical scores, analyzing techniques. The biggest technical challenge in my field seems to be getting good audio while video conferencing. I am feeding sound from my speakers back into my microphone and then students are listening to that.

The wait lists for her classes were long and students were bringing her techniques to rehearsals and other acting classes. She had begun making her impact and could not be more thrilled. In total, she taught eight semesters of Acting I and Acting II along with Directing, Voice, and Auditions. During this time she was also given

, because while I love teaching skills and techniques, I really adore mentoring and getting to know my students better and helping them transition from student to peer. My main goal is to help them succeed in our field beyond PLU and there’s nothing I like better than to receive notices of shows and exhibitions with their names on the listings. What do you hope your students take away from your classes? I want them to be skillful artists, intentional communicators, and good humans. What makes you proud

Until recently GH has been scarce, extracted from the pea-sized pituitary glands of cadavers. Now, however, Genentech, Inc. can manufacture it with recombinant DNA techniques, so there’s “plenty.” The treatments do cost $15,000 a year, of course, and usually they have to be administered for five years to make a difference, but GH is available.“We don’t know what to do,” the physician went on

Warhol’s 1984 screenprint tribute The Scream (after Munch). Munch was a master printmaker, advancing new techniques and mastering all aspects of his craft. TAM has highlighted the Northwest’s passion for printmaking in numerous exhibitions (recall 2014’s positively-received Ink This!), and the Munch exhibition continues the museum’s interest in exploring the artistry of printwork. By his own estimations, the prolific Munch created some 30,000 impressions of his prints. This exhibition reflects the vast

Positioned for the Future As everyone here knows, PLU doesn’t exist in a vacuum, and the challenges we face as an institution are varied and potentially daunting. The cost of higher education keeps rising, the general economy remains fragile, public support for higher education is declining, and other countries are matching or exceeding us in many measures of
