Album Produced at PLU Recording sessions were booked, pages of music were scanned, and I began to realize the scale of my undertaking. The album consisted of seven pieces, some with multiple movements, for a total of 18 tracks. Each piece had a different set of instruments, and each movement had it’s own tone. The schedule didn’t help: we were constrained on time, and often needed to record the entire piece in one sitting (movements and all). Having a great producer can mean the difference between a

February 2, 2009 Learning perspectives About a dozen students silently sit in a semicircle around a Makah woman, as she shows them how to make a cedar bracelet.

And they listen eagerly as she tells them how to simultaneously twist and braid the bark, while her teeth stay clenched on one end. She reminds them to keep the cedar damp and the material fills the room with a musky, sweet

July 23, 2009 Biology professors win coveted Murdock grants Turning over barnacle-encrusted rocks, one by one, craning your neck to catch a glimpse of a bird or sloshing through a muddy tributary might not seem like hard core scientific endeavors. But think again. It’s research such as this that gleaned three assistant professors of biology – Michael Behrens, Julie Smith and Jacob Egge – grants totaling more than $120,000.

April 19, 2010 Claim: You shouldn’t judge a book by its cover My friends in college were always intrigued in my taste in music. While we typically identify ourselves as someone who loves one genre, I am more a lover of album art. Typically, I choose my music based off the cover. To me, the cover should convey the type of music, the mood and even the experience I am to have while listening to the audio. It’s such an interesting way to pick your music that I apply a similar principle to what I

participated in a competitive assignment to practice their art presentation skills. Pastor Jen Rude shared the idea of “practicing courage,” the theme of the semester for University Chapel. Pastor Jen wanted to commission a piece to represent practicing courage, and chose Margaret’s proposal to be constructed and displayed in the chapel. Margaret said, “I chose to depict moments of everyday courage that I observe in those around me. The image on the piece about self harm was particularly personal, as I
