possesses and appropriates her image, dominates the expression of her form, and not only receives her love, but attempts to take her fortune. His last name “Lockhart” is also synonymous with “lock heart”, as if he could chain love or love’s pretense. The implications of Charles, as a white man, capturing Georgiana, a Black woman, by making her into a kind of property is unnerving. A viewer may accept Charles’s language as romantic in a patriarchal society where “ownership” and “possession” are

Library. To get to the library, you can walk on the paved walkway in front of the administration building . But you can also walk on the woodchip path on the side of the east wing, with green trees and ferns on either side, and you will choose this path every time. Sometimes you will imagine that you are making a mini-trek through the wilderness on your way from class to study or meet up with friends in the library, because on some days, this will be the only wild area that will be close enough to

potentially huge impact. “She is on the ground floor of a relatively new field that has the possibility of making all kinds of great insights into cancer in the evolution of history,” Ryan said. As Hunt and other researchers unearth more and more ancient evidence—breast cancer in 3500 B.C. Egypt, osteo-sarcoma in a T. rex femur—Hunt has formed an intriguing theory: She believes cancer is inherent in human beings and is aggravated by—rather than caused by—environmental factors. Her goal now is to gather

Colonel (temporary) making the 28 year-old Eisenhower among the youngest Lieutenant Colonels in the Army.  Eisenhower continued to hope for a chance to command troops in Europe. II For millennia, hundreds of thousands of ducks and geese had darkened the skies over western Kansas during their migrations along the Central Flyway to and from Canada and the Gulf of Mexico.  This feathered cloud also rained billions of bird viruses in their poo on Kansas farms, towns, fields, ponds and pig wallows along

will start making an immediate impact on the world—mostly because they already have done so much at PLU. Here’s a look at just a few outstanding members of this year’s graduating class.Greg HibbardMajors: Geoscience and Economics. Hometown: Olympia, Washington. Accomplishments at PLU: NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship recipient, two-time Capital One First Team Academic All American (first male student-athlete in PLU’s history to receive this honor twice), 2014 Football Team Captain, football player all

. I’m a second-class citizen here with the set of struggles that come with that. To this day I experience racism essentially wherever I go in America. People making assumptions about me before they even meet me. Having this color of skin is a death sentence here when it comes to leading a normal American life. I can’t even go down the street on a nice day a lot of times without someone thinking I am a dangerous person. This color of skin isn’t associated with good things in America. Though David

for granted or aren’t aware of it. But it is an incredible gift for which we should be grateful and which we should seek to use on behalf of a world in desperate need of it. Remember that the Lutheran Reformation began in a university. Martin Luther was a teacher committed to making sure people could read and write and study the Scriptures in their own language so that they could learn for themselves about the same steadfast and loving God that Solomon prayed to.  That commitment to critical study

American Heart Association’s annual Heart Ball, Diabetes Walk, Breast Cancer Walks, making blankets for the fallen policemen, and several dinners for the homeless in Tacoma. I didn’t think I would get the chance to travel while attending PLU. I guess the stars aligned just perfectly enough for me to get the opportunity to travel to Chengdu, China, to study Traditional Chinese Medicine this J-Term 2011. Most of all, I have been blessed to make some of the most amazing, smart, talented, and kind friends

broadly creative definitions of global health – such as “domestic, for-profit” global health for local biotech firms making drugs or devices with potential application overseas; “domestic non-profit” organizations working with immigrants (or Native Americans) as well as “international for-profit” firms with business links to Washington. “A key challenge in our report was to define and operationalize the concept of global health,” the UW authors acknowledged in their introduction to the report. Their

beliefs, practices, imaginings that people have attempted to erase or eradicate. That’s a different way of thinking about the work.  Maya: Which I think, like Tyler said, is resurfacing, returning, unearthing and making space for things to breathe after having been buried.Narrator: (With a sigh of appreciation into the thoughtful silence following that evocative image, remembering Maya had focused her studies at PLU “around inequality and its intersections with our natural environment.”) Whew.
