completed and community contributions maintained through some portion of remote work, arrangements may be made in accordance with the following policy. The university allows the use of remote and flexible work arrangements within the bounds of good public practice, business operations, and resource limitations. The following options may be explored: FTE reduction: Reduction in the number of hours an employee works in a week with a corresponding reduction in pay and other benefits such as vacation/sick

Pacific Lutheran University and its service providers strive to maintain an atmosphere in which learning and research flourish. Essential to realizing this goal are electronic communications, administrative information systems, network services, and other electronic resources provided by the university. Essential, too, is that PLU community members are secure, safe, and free from harassment in their use of these systems. To this end, members of the PLU community should have no expectation of

contributing to a profession that she believes is “on the rise,” but doesn’t always receive the proper respect that it should. People often misunderstand the responsibilities and scope of practice for athletic trainers, Daly said, but they have the training and education to put their medical skills to good use. “Not to emotionalize it, but we are kind of like the over-protective parents that know everything that’s going on with the athlete and want to help fix almost everything,” she said. “We are the

this data set.” Travis says she also learns a thing or two from her students through that mentorship model. “The fun part is, when I go to teach capstone,” she said, “I don’t know what I’m going to learn.” Still, Travis said, students gain two important skills through close collaboration with experienced faculty members: self direction and practical application. “Nobody tells you the answers,” Travis said of self-guided research projects. She noted that the work helps students apply what they learn

Lytle Research Group Undergraduate researchers in the Lytle group fabricate and test electrode materials for batteries, capacitors, and sensors. We electrochemically characterize the performance of these materials in order to improve the rate that they store energy and the detection limit for sensing small molecules. Each summer, 2-3 undergraduate students work in the Lytle Lab for 5-10 weeks. They learn to prepare carbon electrodes by sol-gel or vapor deposition routes, and then to

Andrea Munro Research GroupIn the Munro Lab, we study the synthesis, surface chemistry, stability, and properties of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals. We have studied ligand exchange and we grow nanocrystals in a variety of shape and sizes. Student researchers work in our lab during the academic year and as part of the Natural Sciences Undergraduate Summer Research Program. In a typical summer 2-3 undergraduate students work in the Munro Lab for 10 weeks. They learn to synthesize colloidal
