Engineering Science Achievement (MESA) program, so PLU hopes to have elementary-, middle- and high-school students use the greenhouse in the future to learn about the importance of plants. The idea for building a new greenhouse began in the late 2000s, when the Department of Biology hired two new faculty members who were specifically interested in botany, and then-Biology Chair Smith realized they would not be properly equipped for their teaching and scholarship.

They are able to join a community, they are able to hang out with friends, and are able to have a lot of opportunities that weren’t open to a lot of students last year in person, or with outdoor activities and trips.” –Preston Gee ’24 Resident Assistant Dual-Degree Engineering Major “I hope that new students find a good support system here. We have a lot of great mental

environmental catastrophes. Rep. Derek Kilmer speaking to PLU students in a politics and government class.× Similarly, if we are to have internet software developers who understand the principles of information privacy and access, it follows that our computer engineering students would benefit from courses in philosophy, and the increased empathy and understanding that comes from engaging low-income communities that lack access to high-speed internet services. Of course we know that two or three 200-level

professions. A 2016 Classics major who is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in engineering wrote this about his degree: My Classics degree, to me, exemplifies every virtue and value of a liberal arts education, and also everything unique and exceptional about PLU as an institution. . . . By studying holistically the culture, life, and beliefs of another society, I could step outside, if only partially and momentarily, of my own cultural biases, customs, and predispositions; I think that is the epitome of what

on various aspects of poverty. Students will engage with the conceptualization and measurement of poverty, multiple perspectives on why people are poor, and the behavioral economics of living poor. Throughout the course we’ll consider various policies that governments could or do use to help those who are poor. Applications will be primarily to the United States and India, will range from the local to the global, and will be both historical and current.IHON 259: Genetic Engineering in Global

during thunderstorms. DO NOT seek shelter in unprotected open structures such as picnic pavilions, rain shelters, or bus stops. If a building is not available, a metal-topped vehicle with the windows up is the next best option. Avoid contact with metal fences, metal bleachers, or metallic structures. Avoid using hardwired corded telephones or any electrical appliances. Cell phones are a safe alternative. Avoid plumbing—do not take a bath, shower, or wash your hands during a thunderstorm. Wait 30

Chambers Bay, in order to work up to my dream career. Joseph Olson – Bachelor of Science in physics, minor in mathematics Joseph Olson ’12 is from Boise, Idaho. Why PLU? I decided to come to PLU because it was the right fit for me. Coming into college, I knew that I wanted to do something in physics or engineering while still continuing music. Going to a state school for science or engineering meant I would have had to give up guitar, which was unacceptable. The broad education offered at PLU appealed

done. That grit would come in handy when it came to applying for his role with Netflix. “Software engineering interviews are pretty brutal. There’s a lot of different steps that you have to do,” Ronquillo said. “The technical assessment is a coding assessment. Honestly, it’s pretty much an exam that’s like 60 to 90 minutes. You have to complete it before you can get a face-to-face interview.” To prepare for the assessment, Ronquillo sought help from his friend Cody Uehara ’22, a fellow computer
