Luther: “Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree.”Holocaust and Genocide Studies ProgramsThe Holocaust, other genocides, and mass crimes against humanity are phenomena that command serious study and civic engagement. PLU is home to an academic minor in Holocaust and Genocide Studies, an endowed chair in Holocaust history, an annual conference on Holocaust education, summer research fellowships for students studying Holocaust questions, and much

-state tuition. 2. What inspired you to study biology? I was inspired to pursue biology because I’ve always liked learning about cells, the body, and the environment. I believed this major would expose me to a good variety of classes in both chemistry and biology. I want to apply to medical school, so I knew that picking this major and those supporting classes would help me prepare for the MCAT. My favorite (and most challenging) biology course I have taken is mammalian physiology with Dr. Dolan. I

behind Lerum’s advice, when Dr. Lerum told him after his acceptance to medical school “that some students need a pat on the back, while others need a kick in the rear, you needed the latter!” Haglund completed his residency at the University of Washington School of Medicine in 1987 – part of which included a two-year Harvard neurobiology fellowship. He then went on to earn his Ph.D. in physiology and biophysics – also from UW – in 1988. Haglund’s other medical training includes a neurosurgery

-based medical school. The college was created to expand medical education and health care access in communities across the state. The college offers degree and certificate programs in medicine, nutrition and exercise physiology, speech and hearing sciences, health administration and leadership, and medical ethics. Additionally, WSU has three graduate medical education residency programs — internal medicine, pediatric medicine, and family medicine. In addition, the college is home to groundbreaking

she never considered before. She asked herself an essential question: How do normal people apply social justice to their everyday lives and jobs? She had prepared thoroughly to become a medical doctor. Even though her passion wasn’t gone, something was changing. Thiele participated in a summer undergraduate research project with Mary Ellard-Ivey, associate professor of biology. They worked to create better plant development in third-world countries. She never thought about working with plants, but

studying organic chemistry in many universities. Fryhle is just finishing up the 11th edition of the book with his coauthor, T.W. Graham Solomons. The most recent edition in print has a picture of a magnolia plant on it, which is the source of a number of interesting organic compounds, such as several that are found to regulate stress responses.  As for the next edition? That hasn’t been decided yet. Each of the book’s covers, which Fryhle has been coauthoring since 1998,  has a connection to organic
