Larios attributes much of the success in

As we work to design our starship, we will find that many of the lessons we learn can be directly applied on Earth.” "(The goal is) to get students to really see some of the harm that our society is doing so that they can’t really ignore it and live the same way they have been."- Professor Daniel Heath In the first few weeks

Aristotle, Plato’s student, added searching logical analysis in the Politics, Ethics, and Poetics. In the medieval trivium of Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric, words reigned supreme.

Global education is currently a key to admissions marketing, I believe it may become even more important. Fourth, the market for “higher” higher education will continue to expand. The Master’s may become the new BA and, in many fields, the applied doctorate will be the new MA. While we have a solid foothold in graduate

Do you think the UW sends 66 percent of its successful pre-med undergrads to med school? Forget it. But we do. PLU offers smaller classes, more lab time, more time with a pre-med advisor.
