questions makes us uncomfortable, but that is part of the experience of a higher education. We must venture out of our comfort zones and be open to considering different courses of actions. If you do not ask the tough questions, then it will be easier to remain complacent and follow established patterns of behavior.With my students, I hope they always know that I want them to push the envelope when conducting research. I want them to use all of their creativity and passion they have for their topic when

tell stories in new and innovative ways. Having a converged newsroom usually means a single news outlet uses print, video, audio and graphics rather than having mutually exclusive companies or branches for each. Convergence in the newsroom is a relatively new idea and I found, after talking to several professors and professionals throughout the year, that people were unsure how to do it and what convergence really looks like. I am conducting an ongoing experiment within Pacific Lutheran

preparation, organization, punctuality, and treating people with respect. I have fashioned my teaching, singing, and directing after these principles and have formed the person I am today. I look forward to sharing what I have to offer with my current and future PLU students. Upcoming events/performances? On December 1st, I’m conducting the Men’s Choir in the Sounds of Christmas concert along with the University Singers and the Chime Choir. On December 3rd, I’m singing a Messiah with PLU colleagues James

Munro did her part by streaming and posting videos that led the class through each cooking component while fielding questions and sharing information in the forums. Students also served as a sounding board for one another, conducting peer reviews as each special project was developed, revised and perfected. After seeing the way students responded positively to Chem 103’s course debut, Munro is ready to declare her food

and dedication.” From there, Lisosky became Henrichsen’s adviser—one to whom she still turns for advice today. While Henrichsen was interning at the U.N., she discovered how frequently journalists were killed on the job, so she began conducting research with Lisosky. First, they presented a paper at an academic conference, then their research was published in a journal. This became the basis for Henrichsen’s Master’s program from 2008-09, when she was a recipient of the Fulbright Scholarship

Organ Builders in 1979, and says he has been dedicated to the design and construction of high-quality pipe organs ever since. His company was commissioned by former music professor David Dahl to develop the Lagerquist Hall organ

I attended public schools in central Iowa and then earned a BM with an Education Certification from the University of Iowa. Next was a MM in Trombone Performance and Literature from the University of Notre Dame, and finally a DMA in Orchestral Conducting from the University of Iowa. I consider my major teachers to have been John Hill and Frank Crisafulli as
