The 253 PLU Bound scholarship recipient from the Key Peninsula near Tacoma began his first year intending to major in music education. But best-laid plans often go awry. Lindhartsen soon realized that wasn’t the path for him. He knew he wanted to study music, but…
knew he wanted to study music, but he wasn’t interested in teaching.“At the time I was doing a general music major and considering minoring in communication or business,” Lindhartsen said. “But through my involvement with LASR (PLU’s student radio station) I was able to explore the music community and learn about careers outside of composition, performance and education.” He credits conversations with music professor Greg Youtz, an inspirational songwriting and production course, and his experience

Senior capstone: ‘the toughest class they will ever take’ If Tosh Kakar has his way, James Crosetto, Jeremy Ellison and Seth Schwiethale will have spent most of their senior year trapped in a project room just off Morken 212.It is a state-of-the-art room adjacent to…

Then, they moved into design analysis. Then, they figured out how to scale back their plans for something more manageable. It is part of the process, Hauser notes – nothing wrong with that. Part of any design process is discovering what is manageable and what isn’t – and then figuring out what can actually be created. “Even the

Robert Lynam ’12 and Bridgette Cooper ’11 had a front-row view this year on how laws in Olympia are really made. (Photo by John Froschauer) Learning from the floor: PLU students head to Olympia, join the front lines of public policy. By Chris Albert Under…
tours of the Capitol and, in general, support their senator – and their senator’s staff – with whatever needs to be done. Being a legislative intern is not an easy job, Lynam said. There is down time, but the nature of public policy is immediate reaction. In a lot of ways, he thinks he over-extended his commitments for the semester by having the job in Olympia and being part of the crew team at PLU. He loves both, but days that start at 5 a.m. and end at 8 p.m. have worn him a bit thin. “We’re all

I have grown up in Parkland, WA my entire life. I went to Brookdale Elementary, Keithley Middle School, and then Washington High School. The last thing I wanted to do was to attend PLU, as it had been right there in my backyard and right…

I figured if PLU was in Parkland, there was no way it was offering more than what a community college could give me because the area didn’t seem “special” enough to be like a “real” college. In the end, many years later, I ended up right back at PLU for the absolute best 5 years (thank you, PLUS year) of my life where I not only learned about my

Many of the emails I’ve received about this subject reveal listeners’ confusion and misinformation, and I can tell that many people’s passions are very strong and may overwhelm their reason. For example: people complain about: losing a South Sound resource (KPLU has been based in…

Those will continue on KUOW); being unable to hear KUOW where they live (KUOW will now have 15 transmitters instead of 4 to reach more people more clearly). As to the
