So, he theorized that clients attained a greater sense of hope when they had relationships with people who reinforced their belief in themselves and their pathways to getting there. “Our hope is tied to people around us,” he said. “That’s a big contributor.” Enter Grahe and then-PLU students Katelin Johnson ’15 and Katye Griswold ’13, along with a handful of other psychology students. They volunteered in 2014 to move Ward’s Hope Scale from theoretical to tangible, providing the evidence to

TACOMA, WASH. (August 24, 2015)- This week, PLU introduced “Open to Interpretation,” a new podcast devoted to exploring the meanings and implications of words commonly used in the news, on social media and on college campuses. Hosted by Associate Professor of Communication Amy Young, each…
entire curriculum for the Ph.D. was a Friday afternoon seminar/introduction to the department/introduction to the field. Each week, the faculty member in charge of the class would pick a topic that was “hot” in communication, and ask two other faculty members to discuss the topic from their respective theoretical or methodological or practical standpoints—for instance, “activism” or “engagement” or “campaigning” or whatever. The idea was to let graduate students see how scholars approach a topic and

The interaction epitomizes the goal of the program at Bjørknes: to put local practitioners in front of the students and draw connections across borders. “Everything feels so relevant,” Corinne Donohue-Mercie ’20 said of the curriculum. Next up, the students headed to an informal brown-bag seminar ― a theoretical debate between faculty members. Students lounged on orange couches, some snacking on their lunches, as their professors pitted optimism against pessimism
