Volume 3, Number 3 (2007) Winter 2007

Linfield’s connections to the community have been strong throughout the college’s 149 year history. In this issue, we explore the efforts of two psychology professors who are studying youth and providing valuable information to families, while giving their students an opportunity to conduct meaningful research. We also share the images and insights from one alumnus who spent six weeks embedded with troops in Iraq. Read on for two examples of the commitment of faculty and students who serve the greater community, both here and around the world. And we will give you a glimpse of the creativity of our students and faculty and some historical insight into why President Leonard Riley so opposed the sport of football. We look forward to celebrating the rich history of Linfield as we approach our sesquicentennial year, even as we plan for Linfield’s next 150 years.
