impact people’s lives in a positive way, but I also didn’t want to major in biology or chemistry, so I entered my freshman year as a computer science major,” he says. It was a choice that would radically change his chosen path. In his first computer science class at PLU, Gavidia learned how quickly software can scale and impact people around the world. “Just one person, or a small group of people, can accomplish so much,” Gavidia says. That moment was key for him: he realized he didn’t have to go to

its graduates to engage the world. “The Fulbright Fellowship is an ideal match with the global focus of this university,” Storfjell said. The Fulbright is a prestigious fellowship, and both the recipients and PLU deserve recognition for their efforts. But what does it mean for current Fulbright Fellows who are currently abroad as part of the program? For Michael Wauters ’07, that answer is easy. As a senior majoring in biology, Wauters received a fellowship to assist on an epidemiological study of

everything from stormwater to soil samples to industrial waste. The outdoorsy trail from National Geographic to analyzing waste makes surprising sense. As Chontofalsky grew older, he thought he’d go into state wildlife biology after graduating from PLU with a biology degree in 2003. But, two days after finishing up his senior project, Chontofalsky wound up interviewing with a private environmental science lab.He took the job and found that he loved his new field. “I spend a lot of time running or hiking
