experiments. Each day, I would either write up a new lab protocol, attempt to replicate a previous experiment’s results, or analyze data. I usually stayed until around 7 p.m., then collected my things, and biked home. When I started, I did one day of online lab safety training and then moved into shadowing for a few days. By the end of my first week, I had been given multiple lines of MOLM-13 acute myeloid leukemia cells. During my second week, I was preparing and running an assay to measure senescence in

Clinical Learning and Simulation Center, and the second floor Open Lab, used for both chemistry and physics lab instruction, in the Rieke Science Center. “These renovations will have a significant impact on learning and research,” says Auman. “They will allow for more mobility and interaction between students and faculty, as well as more hands-on learning for students that will set them up for being better prepared for their careers in science and healthcare.” MEETING CAMPUS – AND COMMUNITY – NEEDS“The

– a lot. They’ve been able to adjust the scope of their project, and as the second semester begins, they’ve started prototyping their robot and the implementation phase. This is where Kakar comes in. He likes to talk about “cracking the whip” – he even likes to pantomime the motion. He does it with a smile, but everyone gets the picture. This opportunity to work so closely with their professor is so valuable – Kakar is just as passionate about guiding the students through the capstone as the

educational tradition of working for issues of justice and tolerance. According to Professor Emeritus of History Philip Nordquist’s ’56 second book documenting the history of PLU “Inquiry, Service, Leadership and Care: Pacific Lutheran University 1988-2008,” faculty members were already studying and teaching about the Holocaust as soon as the 1950s. But when Christopher Browning began his tenure as professor in PLU’s history department in 1974, he brought with him a renewed interest in the subject

family. Second, we are all Norwegians tonight because our most sacred and important principles and values have been attacked, and, for a moment, the foundation of our civilized democratic nations has been shaken. For you see, that foundation begins with our shared beliefs in the sanctity of human life itself, in the intrinsic worth and value of every person, in the beauty of difference, in the richness and diversity of God’s creation, and, hence, in our common responsibility to nurture, and never

-square-foot greenhouse on the second floor of the Rieke Science Center, constructed with the building in 1985. This greenhouse is not adequate for proper instruction, Smith said: It has no climate control, so temperatures reach up to 120º during summer days; it is not large enough for classes; and it is not accessible to students. In December 2010, PLU hired an external consultant who advised that a new greenhouse would be far more fiscally responsible than attempting to fix the current one. Smith

-digit deficit against Linfield College. The Lutes never took the lead that night, and eventually fell to the Wildcats 80-72. But, despite the score and the frustrations that accompanied it, Lester proved to be the kind of player head coach Steve Dickerson expects first and foremost, basketball game or not. When an opposing player took a hard fall late in the second half, Lester offered a hand up without hesitation. That’s the culture Dickerson has built at PLU. Lester’s basketball career might be

diagnosis and a treatment plan to stabilize the acute symptoms/problems that brought them to treatment. Then begins the business of hopefully maintaining stability, improving overall function and working on achieving life goals — that’s where the intensive therapy focus comes in. That first year at PLU is all about assessment, diagnosis, psychopharmacology and patient care management. In the second year the students study family therapy, then group therapy, and then 1:1 therapy over a six-month

charge of doing a few different things. I’m in charge of all the bill tracking. So, I need to look at all the bills that we’ve proposed and prioritized and figure out where they are in the process. The second big responsibility I’ve got is dealing with poll requests. My senator is on the Rules Committee. So, we’ll get lots of emails saying, “Can you pull this from Rules Committee so it can be heard on the floor?” One of my primary jobs is tracking all of that. Those are like the two things I do every

soft skills from the humanities courses as I am regularly trying to persuade people of my position’s correctness or trying to better communicate the intricacies of my solutions.While at PLU, you had the opportunity to study away. How was that experience? I spent the fall term of my fourth year at King’s College London. I also spent J-Term my second year in Manchester. The education half I would describe as interesting and the abroad part I would describe as amazing. I also think studying abroad
