, there was only one other low-residency program like it in the Northwest. Now there are closer to a dozen—but probably still no other program quite like PLU’s. Rubin and Kitchen built PLU’s Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing program from scratch- and now, after directing it since its inception, they are stepping away from leadership roles. And now, PLU Associate Professor of English Rick Barot is stepping in—with excitement, and with gratitude. “Stan and Judith have been an incredible force

cases where a study away site is designated as a Level 3 or Level 4 by the U.S. Department of State, the Wang Center will build a risk assessment to be reviewed by the International Travel Risk Assessment and Advisory Task Force (ITRAATF). ITRAATF will make the final determination on whether PLU can responsibly support study away programs in that location. Risk assessments are developed with input from on-site program staff, to identify potential risks and evaluate their level of impact and

Biology Focuses on cellular organization and function, enzyme kinetics, membrane structure and function, energetics, signaling, and cell cycle. Laboratory employs modern techniques including animal cell culture, cell fractionation, molecular, genetic, and biochemical assays, and microscopy (light, phase contrast, fluorescence).

represent ordered pores and carbon nanofoams were fabricated to have disordered sponge-like pore geometries. These materials were chosen to be as similar as possible in order to make the best capacitance comparison. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) confirmed ordered pore geometries with 250 ± 50 nm pore diameter for papers and disordered pore geometries with 50-300 nm pores for nanofoams. Electrochemical measurements determined that both carbon nanomaterials have similar electronic conductivities and
