Summer Sessions: General and Organic Chemistry at PLU Posted by: yakelina / May 14, 2018 May 14, 2018 PLU is offering is the General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry sequences during the PLU Summer Session 2018.    These courses are available to PLU students as well as non-matriculated students from other colleges and universities.   They can be a useful mechanism to fit in prerequisite courses for professional graduate programs (medical, dental, veterinary, pharmacy, etc.) or keep on a degree

May 11, 2012 For more than a decade, Professor Craig Fryhle, chair of PLU’s Chemistry Department, has coauthored an organic chemistry textbook that has become standard, celebrated and familiar fare for sophomore students studying organic chemistry in many universities. Fryhle is just finishing up the 11th edition of the book with his coauthor, T.W. Graham Solomons.

Yakelis, chemistry department chair “I think that PLU has a lot of professors who are here because they get excited about the things their students are doing,” she said. “And as a student it’s really empowering to have professors who do get so excited.” Smith came to PLU not intending to major in chemistry. She knew she was interested in environmental science, but thought biology would be her path. After taking organic chemistry, Smith found her passions and talent with chemistry. “Here, the

– have guided the ranch to produce mainly organic beef, as well as organic chicken, pork, lamb and turkey. Thundering Hooves provides meat to food clubs in the Seattle area – and to PLU. The organic beef is just one of the many organic and local food items that have made their way into The Commons as roast beef sandwiches, pot roast and French dip. Joel Huesby recounted the “holy cow” moment 10 years ago that prompted the family decision to go organic: The ranch had received a cow that was barren

in the northern outskirts of the Dallas-Ft. Worth area. This program offers interdisciplinary research experiences at the forefront of the chemical sciences. Although our faculty research groups are grounded in “traditional” areas of chemistry (analytical, inorganic, organic, physical), most of their research projects cross boundaries between these areas. A unique aspect of our REU program is that all projects will involve collaboration between two or more research groups, including both

came home forcefully to me in the fumigations and surrounding environmental toll. The people who suffer the most are the rose workers and the environment where they work. As I found another telltale sign of the rose’s toxic toll in Ecuador – dead fish floating belly-up in pesticide-laced waters – I found myself wondering if I could ever buy a rose for my wife or mother again. So I began a quest to learn if it’s possible to purchase an organic or sustainable rose. I discovered that enterprising
