Why do we evaluate information In a world full of information that is steeped in algorithms, for-profit motivations, and biases, how do we determine the truth? And how do we know which information to trust? These questions are becoming more and more difficult to answer as our information society becomes entrenched in forms of emotional manipulation and post-truth tactics. A glimmer of hope can be found in seeking to understand the information economy itself and how it functions. This section

. “After a few years of playing (jazz) everything fell into place,” McEntire said recently. He said he draws inspiration from professors, as well as classes, and has found a mentor in sax professor Robert Miller, who he met during his freshman and sophomore years. “I view him as a contemporary helping me along my path,” McEntire said. “He was, and still is, a mentor. Instead of just helping me with techniques and giving me tips to play better, he taught me about how one can view jazz as a parallel to

with the students in my class.” Sometimes the knowledge, age, and experience of professors can make them seem unapproachable. But, as a student, Zhu shares the same busy and very well-occupied life as a PLU student. He suspects that students may find him more approachable because of this parallel. Xi Zhu, Visiting Instructor of Chinese What brought Professor Zhu to PLU? The challenge of designing his own course and “the chance to teach both language and literature.” Getting the opportunity to

proof by induction. Content may include basic counting principles, permutations and combinations, binomial coefficient identities, generating functions, recurrence relations, inclusion-exclusion, graph theory, and algorithms. Prerequisite: MATH 152. (4) MATH 319 : Introduction to Proofs: Geometry Introduces the foundations of geometry while emphasizing the importance of proof-related concepts such as mathematical grammar, logical equivalence, direct proofs, indirect proofs, proof by contradiction

committee chair may each request a witness. The candidate may subsequently request that these general reasons be confirmed in writing. The candidate should consider that it may not always be to the advantage of the faculty member to be informed of the reasons for non-reappointment, particularly in writing. In the case of a negative recommendation from the provost, the candidate may request reasons for that recommendation from the provost, after a 24-hour waiting period. The procedures shall parallel

point of view within North America and parallel situations in the European and Asian Arctic.” Steven Solomon, The Epic Struggle for Water, Power and Civilization (Harper, 2010) Far more than oil, the control of water wealth throughout history has been pivotal to the rise and fall of great powers, the achievements of civilization, the transformations of society’s vital habitats, and the quality of ordinary daily lives. Today, freshwater scarcity is one of the twenty-first century’s decisive, looming

gamification. 11:45pm – Buggy Coders Cody Uehara (BS), Kieran Kim-Murphy (BS) Buggy Coders’ is a competitive racing platform designed to build and program 1/10th-scale race cars to drive autonomously. The car framework is based on the University of Pennsylvania’s F1Tenth design. Robot Operating System (ROS) is used to deploy our simulation tested racing algorithms to the hardware. Key objectives involve racing purely using sensor data, transitioning to creating maps to localize the vehicle, and finally

. “In the engineering school I went to, they focused on developing algorithms and computer models,” she recalls. “They didn’t care as much about the real-world application of those models, or understanding people better. It’s definitely not how all engineers think about their work, but where I studied, that kind of thing was left to others to think about.” Learning that these others were marketers, Ha shifted her focus. After earning her PhD at the University of Washington and working for three

frontier exploration algorithms to identify and mark new frontiers for exploration. Additionally, utilizing a Raspberry Pi-based camera system in conjunction with OpenALPR, the car scans license plates along its path to enhance security monitoring capabilities. This combination of Lidar, ROS, and computer vision technologies ensures efficient and reliable autonomous operation for security and mapping tasks. 1:30pm – Break 2:15pm – Business Management Application Stuart Gavidia (BS), Jonah Mulcrone (BA
