: Visibility and Empathy. Part of the 2015 SOAC Focus Series: Perspective, this panel explores the nature of conflict, communication and the arts. When individuals, groups and communities clash, there is a sense that one’s perspective is not being heard and seen. The work of conflict practitioners is to create and facilitate processes that allow each group to see the other.

Kekkos t-shirts! In my study away trip I also found Dr. Finitsis to be one of the best professors I have ever had. He has an amazing way of caring about and connecting with students, challenging us, and making us laugh. He is what makes PLU feel like home. I also included “Fun” and “Furry Friends” in my video because I think we need to remember the value in connection and community. Visiting the miniature horses of Rhodes was such a fun, unique experience that I don’t think I would have gained

My PLU experience: My four years at PLU are characterized by field trips, late nights studying, dinner parties

club you founded at PLU? I started what I describe as a hybrid Global Medical Brigade slash pre-med club. The whole purpose is just to meet and build community with other pre-med students at PLU. We help each other out with opportunities, whether that’s making connections with physicians, MCAT prep, and, in general, we just support each other and study together. The purpose of that club is just to get like-minded folks together who share similar goals. How specifically does the PLU chapter engage

you do, you can't stop it. Even if your name is John Smith, every John Smith is going to sign his name differently. But they’ve got the same 26 letters to work with. In second grade I thought 26 letters was not enough. So I started making my own letters. And the teacher kept saying to me, “You can’t do that, Steve. I want you to write out the word ‘Cat,’ you can’t put down 400 letters that you made yourself.” The idea is that we all have the same letters - that’s why I had trouble in the second
