My experience at Pacific Lutheran University was shaped by excellent professors, faculty, staff, and all the people who work every day towards making PLU a safe and caring community. Cross-cultural influences, global events, and guest-lectures have broadened my horizon and provided different perspectives and understandings of the world that I will carry with me towards new goals.
