    athletics for the Men’s Basketball team here is also a major reason why I choose to attend PLU and I’m forever grateful for being able to call myself an NCAA athlete. My PLU experience: The lifelong friendships with fellow classmates as well as with faculty here at PLU is something that I cherish and will never forget. What’s next? My next step is to take a year off and get some experience in the field before applying to graduate schools for the opportunity to study either Geology or Geophysics. Casey
