When Mark Miller ’88 enrolled at PLU he planned to become a math teacher, but he soon discovered he had a passion for technology and business. He’s followed that passion ever since. His career in information and technology has spanned three decades and included chapters…
information and technology has spanned three decades and included chapters at consultancies, a start-up, and large corporations like Microsoft and Weyerhaeuser. He is now the director of information technology at the Port of Tacoma.Miller is also a Lute through and through. His father was a PLU economics professor and his mother ran the student health center. Miller double majored in computer science and economics while playing on the basketball and football teams (including PLU’s 1987 national champion

. At a presentation this year at the Smithsonian Institution, Brekke told a packed auditorium about the early pioneers of Aurora Borealis science. He also told the crowd that to understand the Northern Lights, one must first understand the sun, as Brekke is first and foremost a solar physicist. He told that crowd to try and see the northern lights in the next four years, as he suspects that some of the displays will be the most spectacular in decades. Brekke received a doctorate degree in 1993 from

education degree for secondary-level physics teachers. A minor in physics is also available and is often selected by students with majors in mathematics, chemistry, computer science or computer engineering. The PLU Department of Physics offers small classes: typically 30–50 students in the introductory courses, and 10-15 students in upper-division classes. In addition to the lower-division physics courses, which provide overviews of classical and modern physics at an introductory level, the department
