  • through the aftermath of British rule and the imprint of the English language on the multiple languages spoken in the country. Simultaneously, the novel challenges Britain to redress its colonial history. Kamal is under no allegiance to false unification. She represents the pluralistic perspectives of Pakistan through a diverse cast of characters. Her novel aims to unsettle the British literary canon in order to make a place for itself, more characters of color, and non-English languages not only in

  • maintaining physical distancing. Take our virtual tour to see/remember what it’s like to walk across campus, experience the beautiful Lagerquist concert hall, attend a science class, and more. Smaller class sizes. PLU’s smaller class sizes — with a student-to-faculty ratio of 12:1 — make it easier to accomplish physical distancing. Fully 76% of classes in Fall 2019 had 25 or fewer students — and just 2% of all sections were at full classroom capacity. Roughly two-thirds of all PLU classes could

  • be a part of it,” said Steelquist. “There has been a culture at PLU for a while [about these kinds of issues].” Steelquist said they knew they wanted to do PLU colors and stress the issue of putting the posters across campus. Lt. Col.

  • two statements stood out for me: “Destiny is just an excuse for bad management,” Foege said in deploring those who believe the world’s current state of affairs is simply the consequence of some natural order. And after celebrating those who share in the excitement and optimism reflected in the new push for global health and development progress, he added a precautionary: “We had better know where we are going.” Tom Paulson ’81 has been a science and medical reporter at the Seattle Post

  • cook for themselves. Some, like applied physics and computer science double major Tim Hurd ’13, who has lived off campus for more than a year, find themselves reinventing the meaning of cooking. Hurd draws his food-spiration from a book his grandma and mom bought him in high school. The book, “A Man, a Can, a Plan,” epitomizes a man’s approach to cooking, with dense laminated cardboard pages and recipes that require a large number of canned and pre-prepared food items – but for Hurd it’s perfect

  • job than your average English teacher—in fact, my students are all products of good English teachers and parents who encourage reading, which I’m so thankful for!

They’re using math and science to predict what the outcome will be and what they have to do to get the marble to make the loop. “Will it make it?” Pyles asks the first student. “I think so,” a 7-year-old says with confidence. They’ve made their diagrams and it should work. “OK, let it rip,” Pyles says. The marble runs down the pipe and whirls around
