    about the importance of trust and integrity. On the global and national stage we witnessed what happens when trust erodes, we were shocked to discover that our most sophisticated financial systems are based on that elusive capacity to depend on one another. Every organization, including PLU, functions well only when we trust one another and work together with a confidence in the shared good will and intentions of one another. Excellence matters. In times of complexity challenge and uncertainty

    aspirations. Ultimately, I want to live in a developing country and pursue avenues for community development — specifically focusing on education systems. In graduating from PLU, I feel as though I am now spinning a globe in search of meaningful adventures. Chelsea Putnam – Bachelor of Fine Arts in ceramics Why PLU? I decided to come to PLU for two main reasons. One: I absolutely fell in love with the campus and the area when I came to visit (it must have been a sunny day, such a commodity!). Two: I had

As a result of the efforts by the PLU faculty, I believed each student that leaves PLU is positively impacted by the self-exploration that takes place on campus. If I could give on piece of advice to future undergraduates
