-generation identity in relation to others in the heritage speakers class is complicated. She sometimes feels like she’s “faking it,” since her mom attended some college in her home nation of Peru and her dad earned a graduate degree before becoming a systems engineer back home. Her aunts and uncles — among them dentists and neurosurgeons — also had a sense of belonging in academia and spoke the language of higher education. Still, PLU defines first-in-the-family students as those who come from parents

differential rotation of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, and deMattos’s study of atmospheric effects on observations of Saturn’s rings, both focused on features of the solar system popular with kids and amateur enthusiasts. Don’t mistake accessibility for a lack of substance, though. DeMattos is currently deciding between two doctoral programs, and Longstaff will be moving to Los Angeles after graduation for her dream job: systems engineer at Raytheon.

natural fluctuation during the winter months, these low water levels have inflicted significant issues for industry that operates on the river. During our time in St. Louis, we visited US Army Corps of Engineers and were able to speak with some incredible individuals. First, we visited the Water Control division who oversee the complex systems that regulate reservoirs and water levels to keep the river operational.
