PLU’s School of Nursing evaluation processes require the use of independent, external measures of student performance. This enables student performance to be compared to that of students in other nursing programs across the country. Nursing education is academically rigorous, culminating in a comprehensive national licensure exam. While it is our goal that every student admitted to the PLU School of Nursing will be successful in achieving RN licensure, it is necessary and prudent to implement

The scholarship is the recognition and reaffirmation of the significance of one young man’s college experience, an experience that totaled only two years

Dave Song Research GroupResearch in the Song lab centers on understanding the fundamental mechanisms of energy conversion in chemistry and biology. Our primary focus revolves around the transfer of both the proton and electron in biological catalysis via a ubiquitous mechanism called proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET), underpinning key metabolic processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, and nucleotide reduction. The mechanistic complexities associated with the inherently dual particle
