The ground for treating either at insurance company or public expense is the fact that their height can be a real handicap in the lives patients will lead.We may desperately want “disease” to do the line-drawing trick for us here, but other than some crude distinction between serious diseases on the one hand and

She notices that prospective students, athletes or not, have an interest in the continued development and upgrades to the athletic facilities. “People like to see that progress is happening,” she said. That progress will benefit everybody. Even though the new soccer field was open only to PLU’s athletes this fall, come spring, it is

Keck Observatory Julian Kop ’24 classifies variable star systems, data processing and modeling. “Astronomy and Astrophysics have been my childhood and career interest since I was an elementary student, and engaging in undergraduate astronomy research kept me motivated and inspired throughout this entire summer,” reflected senior physics major Julian Kop.
