structure allows you to “find out what makes sense to you, dive in and swim around.” It makes them feel like they are not simply getting lectured – they are part of the discovery process. An active part. That’s the point, according to Finstuen. Because the students in the IHON program take the same seven classes together, they’ve already built a rapport. “They are already comfortable with each other. That makes the discussions more open, more engaging. It makes a huge difference,” Finstuen said. Lively

PLU’s China Study Abroad Program. “I think one of the biggest questions is that as China develops and modernizes, does it become more Western,” Youtz said. “That’s always been the assumption.” But Jacques – obviously – doesn’t agree. Jacques argues in his book and in the interview that, in fact, China will seek to reshape the world in its own image. The strong sense of superiority rooted in China’s history promises to resurface in 21st century China and in the process strengthen and further unify

to trap the wizard, put out the fires and drown a few Orcs in the process. Todd Sheridan Perry ’92 remembers it well. After all, he designed it. Director Peter Jackson had just popped into Perry’s New Zealand office and asked, at the last minute, could Perry and his crew put together a flood scene with the Ents?

students with different skill sets should be brought into the process. In addition, they are developing a proposal for how the coursework they’ve developed fits into the PLU curriculum. As the development of the reDesign House continues, Smith, Avila and Cooley expect more collaboration with students and faculty, as they see how sustainability can be a resource for other majors at PLU. “We never thought of it as just an art and design course,” Avila said. “It’s contagious in a very good way,” Smith

coordinator of the Center for Gender Equity. I also support Queer programming for students across campus by partnering with various student leaders. Advocacy services are centered around encouraging the empowerment of victim-survivors during their healing process, supporting friends and family, and providing education about the issues surrounding sexual assault and abuse. What are some goals you have for your role? I hope to continue the legacy of those set before me. I hope to also encourage the CGE to

green millet, the grain is a high-protein food staple and more nutritionally dense than rice. The National Science Foundation and other funding sources support the project.   “Although millet is a culturally and nutritionally important food in Asia and Africa, it’s not commonly grown in western agriculture, so there’s not a lot of research,” Laurie-Berry says. A similar process of genetic experimentation refined rice production around 50 years ago. “After we figure out which genes control yield, the

Spectroscopy, which are techniques used to identify the product.” “Each of my reactions requires almost all these steps, which can make the process lengthy, but overall, the hard work pays off when you produce your target compound.” “My time working in the lab has evolved dramatically because not every experiment is the same, as they can vary in length, scale, and techniques. However, I was quick to adapt to these changes and learned to navigate how to approach different experiments. Research requires

problem-solving process. First, you identify a problem. Ambachew noticed that many people in her community wanted to start a business but still needed a unique brand identity. Next, you find a solution. Ambachew created an agency to serve as a consultant for minority business owners. The third step asks innovators to experiment with what works and what doesn’t, repeating this step by trialing – and then improving – solutions, until success is achieved. At present, Ambachew is assisting two women in
