school plan was to work full-time at a teriyaki restaurant… It wasn’t until my good friend Taryn Dee ’16 told me about PLU that I even applied. PLU decided to invest a full-tuition Regents Scholarship in me. In May of 2015, I graduated with a Bachelors of Arts in mathematical economics, Bachelors of Science in psychology and a minor in statistics. I now am a Juris Doctorate candidate at the Arizona State University Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law. Why did you decide to attend law school? Not being

American Mathematical Society List of Summer REUS Posted by: nicolacs / January 30, 2023 January 30, 2023 The Research Experiences for Undergraduate (REU) programs support active research participation by undergraduate students. REU projects involve students in ongoing research programs or in research projects specifically designed for the REU program. Applicants should note that most application deadlines fall in February – March. An REU Site consists of a group of 10 or so undergraduates who

read relevant historiography and primary sources, then record and edit podcasts in PLU’s Martin J. Neeb Center. Hotels and Sustainability Kristin Moniz (Business, Economics) has received funding to study the business and economic history of hotels, with an emphasis on how the hospitality industry has managed sustainability initiatives over the past 40 years. A long-time resident of Hawaii, Kristin plans to research several hotel properties on the islands and integrate data from Airbnb, a recent

Excellence, and it was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. The New York Times named Empire of Cotton one of the ten most important books of 2015. Professor Beckert’s other publications have focused on the nineteenth-century bourgeoisie, on labor, on democracy, on global history and on the connections between slavery and capitalism. He is currently at work on a global history of capitalism. To prepare for this year’s Benson Lecture, PLU students will read selections from Empire of Cotton and study the

, Economics, and History. I will be the moderator and M.C. Mr. Tilden emphasized how excited he was for the open conversation format, a style that he often uses with industry analysts, shareholders, and employees. During the event, we will discuss Alaska’s environmental policies, marketing strategy, business ethics, and labor practices—plus anything else that the students want to ask. It should be a great deal of fun. The lecture begins at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, October 17, and is free and open to the
