The Timing of Deglaciation in Alaska Since the Last Glacial Maximum Natalie Johnson Glaciers globally have been in retreat since the Last Glacial Maximum, and the timing of deglaciation in Alaska has not yet been fully understood. Surface exposure studies have been done in Alaska to understand the history of the glaciation. It was expected that glaciers at lower latitudes would have deglaciated first. Surface exposure ages from previous studies

applications. Molecules called ligands bind to the surface of nanocrystals during their synthesis. Previous studies have demonstrated that these ligands can be exchanged, resulting in an alteration of nanocrystal characteristics—one of which being photoluminescence (PL) intensity. We synthesized both colloidal CdSe nanocrystals and nanobelts then exchanged their surface ligands with pyridine and dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP). This enabled us to look at whether ligands have similar effects on nanocrystal PL

I’m told she has on her desk). But why did Foege even bring me along? Maybe he just liked causing a fuss. PRANKS WITH A PURPOSE But there’s another possible explanation: Inclusion. Breaking down walls. Anthropologists who study the sociological and cultural impacts of practical jokes say they often are done to bring someone into the fold, to create social bonding and a sense of community.

Becoming culturally responsive, however, is a multi-step process that Cushman says “does not happen overnight.” People must check their belief systems and question the motives behind their own personal opinions and convictions. Next, they must validate

talking to PLU alumni and friends about their estate plans. While we are constantly inspired by those who have put great thought into their plans (and perhaps even included charity in those plans!), it is clear that not enough people have created a will (or trust) to provide for their family and causes they care about when they die. FreeWill was created to help solve the crisis of estate planning in America. Despite the best efforts of many, studies reveal that the vast majority of Americans do not
