Volume 9, Number 1 (2012) Summer 2012


With another bruising election season already upon us, we explore the role that higher education plays in helping students become informed and discerning citizens. We sat down with seven faculty members and several students to discuss how a Linfield education helps students determine fact from fiction, truth from untruth. Also in this issue, you will meet Linfield’s version of “The Sopranos,” two young women with remarkable voices and competitive natures who are also strong friends. Another student has an amazing story of survival that helped him choose a career in medicine. And one alumnus spent three incredible months on the South Pole and shares his story of the experience. Linfield’s students, faculty and alumni are a creative, dedicated, adventuresome and committed lot who have fascinating and absorbing stories. These are just a few examples.
