I am absolutely loving my time here and am so thankful for this scholarship helping me to pursue my dreams.” Data is still being collected on the results of the program.

For many, this means concrete skills for working with people, ideas, and data that will translate into a reliable or dependable go at a career. They are looking for mentors and others to invest in them, challenge them, and build scaffolding to help bridge the next steps. They also need space to be allowed to be ‘a hot mess’ and be given the dignity

all along, but what has remained the same is the focus on the Clover Creek Watershed. As a result, we now have many years worth of data about Clover Creek, water quality, and environmental impacts. It’s a really significant contribution to our community. So the course includes geology, biology, and chemistry to do that work. And it’s also truly interdisciplinary, including units on philosophy, literature, ethics, and Native American studies. Students integrate these various fields–taught by guest

animal. One of the most beautiful animals in the world, the jaguar is the third largest of all the cats, behind only the tiger and the lion. Endangered throughout its range in Latin America, the jaguar remains the least studied of all the major felids. Using radio collars, biologists can study—and work to save—this elusive animal, using the signals from the transmitter to gather data on range, habitat needs, and behavior.

data to ask themselves the question, “Do I stay or do I go?” Rather then getting stuck in this dilemma, commit to staying for a certain amount of time and put your energy into being the best you can be and asking your partner to meet you there. Don’t ignore the voice that asks “do I stay or do I go,” simply acknowledge it and choose not to dwell on it for the time being. Many times, as people commit to a brighter future, the brighter future begins to emerge. And if it doesn’t, they have fewer

most critical issues we could tackle, so I had to commit myself to this work. But I also grew up in the community and high school theater scenes. Storytelling is such an important aspect of the human experience. I was encouraged to connect the two and have realized that environmentalism, activism and art have historically been interconnected. Climate change involves a lot of data. Numbers and statistics are a lot for folks to digest, but art, theater, visual and music can help get information

up clinically, including high risk-scenarios that you want a student to be educated in how to handle,” says School of Nursing Dean Barbara Habermann. Research indicates that more higher-level decision-making happens in simulation than in a clinical setting, Kushner says. In a clinical setting, students are often involved in care but are accompanied by a nurse who makes most decisions. In a simulation lab, the students are assessing the situation, interpreting data, and making decisions. Thanks to

day of classes Sept. 5, O’Brien was reminded of the impressive students who attend PLU and the faculty members who teach them to ask tough questions, engage in complexity and exhibit great care for others and the world. “All of that makes me committed to making sure this works out as best it can,” he said. Several weeks ago the Faculty Joint Committee, which convened late last year to review data and propose cutbacks to programs and faculty positions, released its provisional recommendations. The
