  • thermally decompose the oligomerized macromolecules into the charcoal scaffolding that supports the iron oxide. We deposited iron oxide from potassium ferrate onto carbon nanofoams, and studied the effect of the deposition time on the electrochemical behavior of the resulting electrodes. Cyclic voltammetry was used to identify the potentials at which the electrodes underwent oxidation and reduction. The carbon nanofoams and rust-coated carbon nanofoams were imaged using scanning electron microscopy (SEM

  • courses. The SVD allows you to decompose a rectangular matrix into component matrices, unlike spectral decomposition (or eigendecomposition) which can only be applied to square matrices.

He wasn’t making connections with people and he wasn’t happy at PLU. Aust admitted that he “might not have stayed at PLU if it hadn’t been for the debate team because at the end of my freshman year I felt unsure about what I was doing and the debate team was a really good reason to stay in college, or at least stay at PLU.” When Aust joined the debate team he

As a commuter student, she didn’t have a residence hall room where she could pray five times a day, as prescribed by Islam. So she went to

  • with the Spokane Youth Symphony in May 2018. Says Jerilynn of PLU: “The music faculty at PLU – specifically, their depth of knowledge and experiences, warmth and kindness with prospective students, and clear evidence of service to the community – is ultimately what helped me make the decision on which college to attend. The diversity of musical opportunities presented to me as a soloist, ensemble musician, composition collaborator, and peer educator have played a vital role in shaping my life post

  • intimate bond built that someone who has not served will have a hard time understanding. This bond is built through teamwork, long hours, crappy assignments, complaining about everything together, and also enjoying the off time together. No matter someone’s background, culture, race, religion, or sex, the bond brings us all together. And humor is paramount to making it through all of the rough times.

But for students maneuvering to new destinations, the location and the directions need to be unambiguous. The beginning of the semester is right around the corner, but now is still a good time to review learning goals and objectives listed on your syllabi. If written properly, goals and objectives should underlie every instructional decision and
