no “animal studies program” in any American university. In fact, the phrase “animal studies” does not even exist except as I am here using it informally. Even making the comparison between animals and historically oppressed people is much more likely to offend the people involved than ennoble the cause of animals. This even though many feminists, like Carol J. Adams in The Sexual Politics of Meat: A Feminist-Vegetarian Critical Theory (Continuum 1990), have argued animals and women have both been

recognition of authentic vocation. And such a foundation—which may not result from a sparse scattering of courses in a freshman year program, however excellent— is the only practical solution to what I’d call such “premature professionalism.” In short, I sense that we are not yet discussing the fact that our newly claimed orientation may attract a population of students unprepared for and ill-disposed toward liberal education. There is only a limited population of students in the Pacific Northwest. With

How Innovative was the Apple II? Posted by: halvormj / July 23, 2018 Image: Steve Wozniak embraces the Apple II personal computer, which debuted in 1977. July 23, 2018 By Damian Alessandro ’19. In most popular histories of computing, the Apple II personal computer (1977) stands out as a pathbreaker among early devices in the PC Revolution. But how innovative was Apple’s first mass-market computer, and what design features and ideas helped it stand out? In PLU’s Innovation Studies program, we’re

desire associated with the “male gaze.” For example, students using one popular program learn to draguer une fille (pick up a girl), and to identify with the voyeuristic protagonist in the film. Teaching Culture The recent interest in communicative competence and proficiency-based language programs has added an important area of concern to the process of achieving sex equity in the foreign language classroom. These methods’ demand for authentic materials and input from the target culture in drills

program. It works. Suddenly, my screen is awash with images. I’ve told my software to scrape Instagram for photos with the hashtag: #graffiti. It quickly populates with hundreds, thousands of images.I spend the next hour lost in a global photo album that I’m creating via my interaction with a few hundred lines of code. I’m creating the album, the album is creating itself. I’m having my first experience with what we now call “big data,” but it’s surprisingly human. People tagging walls. People

fellow students. “I’m in a class where we’re making a podcast for our project,” Shomler said. “I’ve literally been the library like five times in the last week, helping other groups record their podcast. I’m older and I’m the oldest guy in all my classes — but it’s fun to get to be like a young kid again.” Read Previous PLU’s new economic mentorship program matches students with working professionals Read Next Refracting Spectrums of Color LATEST POSTS PLU Scores 4.5 out of 5 on Campus Pride Index

repetition of care aligns perfectly with the principles of diversity, justice, and sustainability.  And one other way we remind ourselves of our mission to care is in our distinctive University Seal: note here on the lectern and on the inside front cover of your program, how the “L” in “Lutheran” reaches out under the “U,” suggesting the mission to care for you. I hope that as you make your way through this place and become a worthy member of our Lute community that you, too, will find ways to contribute

the liberal arts—A basic understanding of history, language, art, religion, culture, ethics, philosophy and science is a foundation for all more specialized knowledge, c.f., PLU’s ROTC program. Learning and research within community—Nobody pursues an education alone. We were meant to collaborate with each other. It’s built into our DNA. Even an online course assumes there’s someone on the other end helping to lead and guide us while we study in front of our laptop. The intrinsic value of the whole
