She’s currently curating the anthropology department’s collection of small materials—mostly shells, pieces of animal bones and rocks—to record and preserve them before returning them to the Nisqually Tribe. Her research on central Mexico may be less hands-on but is no less exciting. Looking at detailed drawings from the

. It was that same feeling that encouraged me several years ago to ask myself the questions, “What is this feeling?” and “How can I make it happen consistently in therapy?” The answer that came to me then, and that continues to empower me now, is hope. Hope is a life force. It keeps people moving toward their goals and dreams. It keeps people alive in difficult circumstances. An individual’s personal relationship with hope influences his or her daily actions. As hope is nurtured in therapy, clients

While at the CDC, he forced drug companies to warn that aspirin may cause the sometimes deadly Reye Syndrome, reacted quickly to alert women to the dangers of toxic shock syndrome and saw the first cases of a frightening new disease in the early 1980s: AIDS. Over his career, he has

activities. The Lessons tool allows you to create pages, provide a context and navigational flow for an instructional unit, and combine materials such as text, resources, assignments, and assessments into a smooth sequence for students. Students appreciate the organization and flow that lesson pages can provide. Students taking online courses in the summer of 2015 were asked what they liked best about online courses and nearly a third responded that they liked the organization of the courses (most

‘local’ really means, and what a plant looks like and how to care to for it.” Eventually, Mares would like to see the garden become a place where students meet and a venue for events, such as master gardening workshops, a harvest festival and musical performances.

The flatness of Anne’s response to Wentworth’s hyperbolic compliments is uncomfortable but consistent with her characterization: she smiles coyly, lowers her head, and mutters gratitude like a bashful girl. The swim that follows is out of tune with previous and subsequent scenes but quite meaningfully in line with the theme of rebirth. As Wentworth leaves, the protagonist drops her shawl, wades into the rising tide, even though he warns her to beware of

repeating: PLU’s IHON program is both international and honors. It’s what students like about it. That is certainly true for Nellie Moran. As someone who hopes to someday work for the U.S. Foreign Service, she is very interested in the cultural and historical contexts that shape the world. “The fact that the program was internationally focused was a huge draw to me,” Moran said. “Taking classes that force me to think more globally is so beneficial for the work I want to do in the future.” Thinking
