has also pledged support for a new Rieke greenhouse/laboratory that will support both teaching and research. Early in the campaign, a nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer was brought online in Rieke. Faculty and student researchers use it to study the bonding of atoms in a molecule to gain a better understanding of chemical compounds. Funded by the campaign and the National Science Foundation, the facility is one of the first of its kind located at a West Coast undergraduate university

? The individual faculty members that I talked with during my phone interview, and then my in-person interview, seemed so supportive. I was really looking for that in the next stage of my career. I really wanted a department that was collegial, that didn’t just talk about being supportive, actually was supportive and was willing to step in and help in any way they could. I was also really impressed with the multiple mentorship programs we have for first-year and early-career faculty members. That’s

report the use of a novel assay and replica plate system for the characterization of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that acquired drug resistance to the arginine analogue canavanine. This new technique allowed us to calculate the early mutation rates of clones in a wild type (WT) strain and a strain deficient in a DNA repair glycosylase (ogg1∆), and late mutation frequencies of clones that potentially acquired drug resistance by the Retromutagenesis pathway. Comparison of the late mutation frequencies
