working on a summer research project with his physics prof, getting a good work-study job, even co-captaining the nationally ranked ultimate Frisbee team. “When else would I have an opportunity like this?” he asks. Studying away wasn’t necessarily Andy’s intent when he arrived from Arvada, Colo., to study math and engineering. But he quickly learned PLU makes it easy for students to immerse themselves in another culture. There is a campus office dedicated solely for that purpose. There are

Students then build their own self-sustaining terrarium inside a glass jar and seal it to represent the conditions that would be present on the ship. This project was a favorite for many of Heath’s students, including mathematics and physics double major Matthew Helmer ’24. “It was the most hands-on part of the class, where we researched and experimented with how to make an artificial water cycle to allow plants to flourish,” he

they participate. POE medical students spend a minimum of 10 weeks in the program. The minimum tenure requirement for all others is 11 weeks. All POE applicants must have an undergraduate GPA of at least 3.40 (on a 4.0 scale) in math and science (biology, chemistry, and physics) and at least a 3.40 overall. We hope to be able to increase the POE 2022 subsistence allowance to $600/week for all participants. Fully furnished group housing will be provided at no cost for non- local participants. The
