brief stop at PLU from 2000-02, when he was a visiting Assistant Professor of Political Science. A political science researcher first and teacher second, Milton says his research and teaching of bureaucracy and institutional change forced him to look at schools and education from that standpoint. Working in a middle school in 2006, Milton first became interested in the effects of government regulations on school systems, the basis of his new book. Milton’s book, The Normal Accident Theory of

change, but also those of several other pollutants that affect human health. A carbon tax would make those who cause the emissions from their consumption pay something for it directly and, in the process, lead to fewer emissions. For an electorate that hates new taxes, one could offset the carbon tax increase by lowering some other existing tax such as payroll taxes. This way, the bottom line for most households need not change, but the incentive for conservation is preserved. To address equity

—I’m still, like, not getting punished but … restricted.” Ana Sofia (not her real name) said she hasn’t learned to drive because she’s afraid of being stopped by police. She can’t work because she doesn’t have a Social Security number. She can’t get financial aid for college. She’s even afraid to call 911 in an emergency in case it somehow leads to deportation. “Those types of things, they do affect me, my daily life,” Ana Sofia said. They also illustrate the fact that the principles of

, and surrounded by blackboards that viewers can write upon. The overall work is a collection of multimedia vignettes illustrating mathematical concepts. Visitors to the piece will see a “knotical” (nautical) scene—featuring a bay, a boat, and a sea monster—exploring concepts in knot theory. A large handmade quilt composed of blocks depicts various forms of cryptography, while a soaring lighthouse is topped with a stained-glass dodecahedron. A dizzying variety of artistic mediums comprise the work

good one. After all, the Strait of Juan de Fuca has pretty good office views. And when Agoncillo considers how a coveted research project like this might affect her future, the possibilities are limitless. “Grad schools look to see what you have done,” she said. “If I want to get into a good program, then I’ve got to have this kind of experience.” Read Previous Tallest building Read Next PLU prof gets students, parents to face the music COMMENTS*Note: All comments are moderated If the comments

of employer relations? And how will it affect students?According to Hughes, the newly created position will be something of a facilitator among many of the essential career planning services already available to students, such as the offices of Career Development and Academic Internships, or the opportunities made available through academic departments or the Alumni office. To be clear: Those offices and opportunities are not going away. “My role is more of a collaborator – to bring a lot of the

is used to prevent corrosion, deposit nanoscale interconnects in computer chips, and to interface electronics with neural circuits. Electrochemical technology is an area of rapidly growing importance and commercial activity, but almost no graduates have the requisite skills. To address this need, we started the first and only MS program in the US dedicated to electrochemistry. The core program consists of 6-months of accelerated, immersive coursework (including foundational theory, team-based
