  • Another Historic Harstad Hike From left, Carol Yenish of Mankato, Minn., the Beckers’ daughter and great-great-grandchild of PLU founder Bjug Harstad; Vance and Linda (Harstad) Becker of North Mankato; and Mark Harstad of Mankato display electronic and typed records of their ancestor’s journey to Yukon…

    . From there Harstad took handmade boats and rafts down the Yukon River to the boomtown of Dawson City in Yukon Territory, where gold had been discovered in 1896. Harstad had high hopes—grounded in solid faith—for his mission. In a letter home dated April 17, 1898, he wrote: “Many are surprised that the undersigned should go to Alaska among gold seekers. I should like to ask those if they know anyone who has a better reason for going into the gold fields than I. … It is firmly impressed both upon me

  • NMR is no longer under wraps It looks like a rather fat, squat water heater. A water heater with a $743,000 price tag. But to the professors of PLU’s chemistry department , the nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer is a dream come true. It’s easy to…

    starts appearing on the computer. To an untrained eye, the readouts seem like random squiggles and blobs. But the frequencies mean quite a bit to the chemists. It tells them – on a molecular level – how atoms comprising a molecule are bonded together and what parts of the molecule are in motion with respect to the other parts of the molecule. On a more basic scale, it will help them decipher the compound they are looking at. Some solid samples need to spun inside the magnet at nearly the speed of

  • Accepted to med school For those passing through northwest­ern Idaho, here’s hoping you don’t meet Guy Jensen. Jensen is a volunteer emergency medical technician, who, during the summer, is likely to be one of the first people on the scene in the event of a…

    .” Smith’s involvement extends beyond the academic arena. When Jensen started filling out applications during fall semester of his senior year – 13 in total for schools across the United States – Smith was there, guiding him through the realities of the process. For instance, Smith worked with Jensen to identify where to apply ($100 per application is no small chunk of change) and how to strengthen his personal statements. Advisors are there to help students build a strong resume. After all, it’s all
