She can’t work because she doesn’t have a Social Security number. She can’t get financial aid for college. She’s even afraid to call 911 in an emergency in case it somehow leads to deportation. “Those types of things, they do affect me, my daily life,” Ana Sofia said.

When this unit on manufacturing ends, Heath confirms that the “starship” they were designing is in fact a representation of the Earth — a tiny bubble in the middle of space that they are all living on. The real assignment now is to redesign an aspect of the current way of life and record a 10-minute TED Talk to inspire people to redesign it. The final

shooting skits was intimidating to him at first. “I didn’t know if I could do it or not until I sat in my room and opened up my laptop,” he said. “My first two years (at PLU) gave me the confidence that I could do this if I really worked at it. I think, yes, I’ve always wanted to do it, but I hadn’t had the confidence until I had some time in college to just experiment and take the opportunity.” Much like Temple, Gutierrez didn’t have PLU on her radar until she began the process of looking for a

During the exercise, the Lutes and the Chinese students exchanged ideas about how their cultures intersect, using

The birds give a real-time insight into how species may develop, literally on the fly, as they exploit niches, food sources and only breed with the types of the same call, Smith said. The process, called speciation, is one of the most important questions posed in the field of evolutionary biology, yet, it’s not completely understood by biologists, Smith said Also flitting around the canopy about 100
