easy first step to connect (since most of our community members have a PLU email). Is technology becoming “too much”? Can you ask for their physical address and send them a letter? Small talk saves the day 4. Ideas to start a conversation Starting a conversation can be a bit nerve-racking even at the best of times. However, once you break the ice, an organic conversation flow can take place. Break the ice by asking simple questions. For example: How’s the weather over there? How are classes going

reactions Faculty mentor: Neal Yakelis, Chemistry Diels-Alder reactions are common reactions used in organic synthesis. However, they often require harsh reaction conditions or expensive and hazardous metal catalysts. Recent works have shown that photocatalysts can allow Diels-Alder reactions to be run at room temperature by irradiating the reaction vessel with blue LED light, producing high yields. Fluorenone is one such catalyst that has been investigated in recent literature. Our work seeks to

best it provides a false sense of security. One way to discourage cheating is to design assessments that are unique and authentic, requiring higher order thinking skills like synthesis, analysis, or the creation of original content. For written work, Turnitin’s Originality Check (via Sakai Assignments) is a popular tool to discourage plagiarism and cheating. An option for multiple choice assessments is to use “question pools” where assessment questions are drawn randomly from a large pool of

great way to foster deep learning in students students is via collaborative work that employs the knowledge they are acquiring throughout the course and requires them to seek out new knowledge and engage in synthesis of that material. A colleague of mine in the department (Jacob Egge) had used team dissection projects of different vertebrates in comparative anatomy in the past and I thought that idea fit the bill perfectly. All I needed to do was find a way to check in on student progress

community during the two-day Food Symposium presented by the Philosophy Department last week. The symposium began with a series of sessions for the symposium’s presenters on Feb. 20. They started the morning with a discussion on a variety of food topics, including organic agriculture and food system sustainability, supporting local farmers and achieving changes in the food system, and food costs. Among the presenters was an array of PLU students, staff, and professors, and community members, with a

.“That experience helped me grow as a person and in my chemistry career,” she said. In the classroom, her aptitude was quickly noticed, leading to her becoming an organic lab teaching assistant in the fall of 2020 and 2021, and an invitation to be a student guest of the American Chemical Society at the Linus Pauling Award Symposium Banquet. “Yaquelin impresses you with her work ethic, diligence, and academic abilities,” Craig Fryhle, chemistry professor, said. “She is a very personable, earnest, and
