Volume 5, Number 3 (2009) Winter 2009


Sometimes, you just have to take advantage of a teachable moment. In this issue of Linfield Magazine, we share such moments through classes that paralleled real life as the financial crisis began to unfold last fall. We also discuss some of our strategies for dealing with the challenges facing our students and the college. Even though the financial turmoil dominated the news, there were exciting things happening on campus. We profile one of Linfield’s senior professors, and share how another professor’s collaboration with a student resulted in a year-long research sabbatical to China. You will meet three nursing alumni who work outside the traditional setting and you will learn about two of our outstanding students, one selected for a prestigious math program and another who interned with the Canadian consul- ate. These may be challenging times for all of us, but Linfield remains focused on our mission of connecting learning, life, and community. Join us.
