Ross helped Meade and his wife navigate the VA benefits labyrinth and also discovered that he wasn’t getting the disability benefits he should have been receiving for the last three decades. “Took a couple of visits to figure out what was going on,” Ross says modestly. “As a nurse, you don’t’ just take care of the patient, but the whole family.” It’s this sort of attitude and the changes in the lives of the patients

different ways, take so many different forms, but there’s still a popular mindset that people can’t understand it if they aren’t a certain type of person. I think you can say that about any classic book across cultures. Books are about learning other perspectives, and I don’t think we’re doing ourselves any favors by siloing specific books to specific people. That’s not true, and we need to work against those stereotypes or they will only get worse. What was the last book you read? There’s a couple! I

. Joel, Alumnus (2018) & EmployeePLU provided me with the atmosphere I needed to change and grow. Through student clubs I pursued my interests; through theatre and residential life I developed meaningful relationships; and through career services and academics I explored my curiosities. PLU has something for everybody, and the Engagement Fair at the start of each semester is a wonderful place to identify those communities. However you decide to be involved, PLU will give you transformative

minorities, and the land itself have been deprived of freedom and justice. Martin Luther, the progenitor of Lutheran higher education, argued that God’s justice is a life-giving justice for all persons regardless of gender, race or ethnicity, social or economic status – a justice that should suffuse human relationships and the education of future leaders in society. Indeed, he was among the first of his generation to protest business, banking, and religious practices that favored the wealthy few and
