It is evident, too, when speaking with PLU Assistant Professor of Theater Amanda Sweger, who begins her second year at PLU teaching theater lighting and design. It is clear she looks at this type of collaboration in the same way a natural science professor in Rieke Science Center might look at a student–faculty research project. It is for this reason Sweger is so quick to let the students learn the light

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
