    When Two PLU Historians Sit Down to Chat One smoky August afternoon Dr Beth Kraig and I decided to beat the heat and take shelter in the cooling confines of the University of Washington, Tacoma library, to have a cheery chat about plagues. We thought this would be a fun topic to discuss,… October 8, 2018 historyplaguePLU History Department

    might study the inner workings of atoms and nuclei, the size and age of the universe, the behavior of high-temperature superconductors, or the life cycles of stars, from their formation out of interstellar gases to their end-states as pulsars or black holes. Physicists use high-energy accelerators to search for quarks; they design new laser systems for applications in medicine and communications; they heat hydrogen gases to temperatures above those at the sun’s core in the attempt to develop nuclear

  • Alum introduces a little titration magic, of sorts, into the PLU chemistry labs With a click of a mouse, magic – chemically speaking – seemed to happen in a lecture room at the Morken Center recently . Students and professors gathered around a new spectrophotometer developed…

    freezing point of acetic acid and the odd phenomenon of super cooling. “It’s a good experiment if you want to test what you expect, and contrast that with what you really see,” Amend said, as the sample’s temperature plummeted to 1o degrees centigrade, only to rise to the expected level of about 17 degrees C.  The  new device allows both students and professors “to spend a lot more time thinking about what’s going on,” rather than waiting for the experimental results to occur, Amend said. After leaving
