5Laura Polson landed her dream job as a deputy U.S. marshal in Tacoma.

College of Arts and Sciencesthe College of Arts and Sciences offers seven graduate programs, all of which support

Seattle University’s mission to educate the whole person for a life of leadership and

service. that mission, central to our Jesuit heritage, guides an emphasis on ethical

reflection as the cornerstone of our students’ professional careers. Critical thinking

and the desire to take on challenging roles—and go beyond what is required—set our

graduates apart.

Before she arrived at Seattle University, Laura Polson did a wide search for just the right graduate program in criminal justice. Too many of them, she says, focus on public admin-istration and policy.

“I looked for really diverse classes and a program that wasn’t so policy oriented,” she says. “And I wanted connec-tions to the community that were obvious from the get-go because those were key to getting the right job.”

As an SU graduate student, she signed on for every practi-cum to see what suited her best: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) or Federal Bureau of Investiga-tion (FBI) or Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). She also interned for the ATF as well as the U.S. Marshals Service.

“The opportunities are there for just about anything you want in law enforcement,” she says.

In 2010, she landed her dream job as a deputy U.S. marshal with the nation’s oldest federal law enforcement agency. Based at the federal courthouse in Tacoma’s remodeled, 100-year-old Union Station, Polson is pumped about every aspect of her work. She hasn’t yet had reason to draw her gun or play a role

in extraditions of any notorious criminals, although she has traveled as far as Florida to return a fugitive to the Northwest.

As early as her graduate student internship, she discovered she liked working with inmates and the courts.

“I get to see the whole judicial process close up and in motion,” she says. “Plus, every day I kind of don’t know what my work will be. I bounce from one thing to another. I might be doing transports or bookings of new prisoners or serving subpoenas or taking an inmate for medical care.”

It’s a big leap for the 2004 Eastern Washington Univer-sity anthropology graduate whose previous work experience involved sitting at a desk doing data entry.

She’s pleased to have found the right niche. “I’m never at my desk and I love that. I don’t have to

write warrants or do paperwork, just go out and get the bad guys,” she says.

Deputy Polson is continuing to develop her leadership abilities by creating a practicum to challenge and support SU’s graduate and undergraduate criminal justice students. She plans to cover the courts, witness security, judicial secu-rity, asset forfeiture, warrants, a tour of the courthouse and perhaps even a meeting with a judge as part of the two-day practicum on the U.S. Marshals Service, which hasn’t been represented until her efforts.

Based on her experience so far, her career goal is an intriguing one. “I think it would be really interesting to in-vestigate threats against the courts and judges,” she says. “If I made a career of doing judicial security, I’d be very happy.”

Albers School of Business and Economicsthe Albers School of business and economics educates managers from around

the globe to be effective world-class leaders—both in their professions and in their

communities. In the Jesuit tradition of leadership and service, you are challenged

with contemporary and ethical issues facing businesses and society throughout the

curriculum, and service projects are incorporated into several classes. the Albers

School is fully accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of business

International, the premier accrediting agency for business schools worldwide.

APPLIed LeAderShIPAs she describes the work that went into the creation of

the Red Winged Leadership Award project, Brittney Hurst says she was pleased with the way each student in her cohort rose to the challenge.

“What was so impressive was that every individual took the ball and went for the stars,” she says.

The Red Winged Leadership Award began as a project of 21 graduate students in Seattle University’s 2010 Gradu-ate Leadership Formation Certificate (GLFC) cohort at the Albers School of Business and Economics. The award honors community leaders committed to embracing the overlapping intersection of leadership, business acumen and social impact. Members of the cohort worked together to identify possible candidates in the community who embody these principles, then recognized top citizens at an awards ceremony.

According to Hurst, it was Management Asst. Prof. Jennifer Marrone who came up with idea, inspired by the Opus Prize, the world’s largest faith-based, humanitarian award for social innovation. The prize was administered by Seattle University in 2008.

MIB graduate Brittney Hurst (left) and Linda Ruthruft, a Red Winged Leadership Award finalist, meet for coffee at Street Bean Espresso.

For the Red Winged Leadership project, Hurst was in charge of finding a panel of jurors who would choose two finalists and a winner. That jury included: Norm Rice, former Seattle mayor and CEO of the Seattle Foundation; Phyllis Campbell, member of the SU board of trustees and CEO of JPMorgan Chase Northwest; Tara Smith, associate direc-tor of Seattle Works; John Dienhart, Frank Shrontz chair of professional ethics at the Albers school; and Carly Cannell, assistant to the director of the SU Center for Service and Community Engagement.

Hurst’s was just one of numerous committees and sub-committees involved in the project.

“We had no idea what this would look like, feel like or what it would mean at the start of the quarter,” she says. “There were layers to it – a lot of moving parts – with teams in charge of branding, finances, the awards event and more. Calling this experience a class project really undersells it because it was so much more challenging than that.”

year were Linda Ruthruff, executive director of Street Bean Espresso in Seattle’s Belltown neighborhood, which provides homeless and street youth with supportive employment, and Dylan Higgins, Seattle co-founder of savetogether.org, which promotes the power of responsible saving.

Studying leadership was especially valuable for Hurst, who also works as a business development executive with Hearst Seattle Media.

“Leadership was a natural fit for me and this program was very diverse, with 90 percent of the cohort working full time. We examined theories about leadership and when we learned concepts, we had an opportunity to apply them.

“The university environment at SU is so collegial and collaborative. I like structure, but I like flexible structure with intelligent, challenging people. That I could start my studies in any quarter was appealing, too.

“I especially like the holistic approach and that what we do means something to the community in a responsible and caring way. I’m attracted to the fact that care and concern can be rewarded in business,” she says.

Hurst, whose business studies Albers focused more on entrepreneurship, has a goal of one day becoming a venture capitalist.

“I’m really good at connecting thoughts and connecting people, creating a confluence that swirls around me. I like the idea of launching different businesses. Having that impact is challenging,” she says.

he FoUNd room to be CreAtIveMonico DeLeon’s vision for the future is clear: he hopes

to be director of special education programs for a school district within three to five years.

“And I see myself becoming a principal after 10 years,” says DeLeon, a graduate of the College of Education Teacher Education (MIT) program.

The MIT program was an incredibly collaborative experi-ence for him from the outset.

“The MIT program prepared us to hit the ground run-ning. Personally and professionally, it was the best thing that has happened to me,” DeLeon says. “They allowed a lot of room for us to be creative, to not be afraid of failure. If you fail, you’ll learn what you need to do to fix it.”

Earning his master’s in teaching with a social studies endorsement spurred him to continue at Seattle University. Thanks to an unexpected experience he had as a student teacher in special education, DeLeon chose to explore teach-ing youth with challenging behaviors. He says he doesn’t like the term “at-risk” youth.

“We’re all at-risk, whether it’s behavioral or biological,” says DeLeon, who received a Martinez Foundation Fel-lowship offered to students of color who pursue education degrees. DeLeon was the first recipient of the fellowship for special education.

DeLeon has come far since his youth. His family moved to Southern California from Tijuana, Mexico, when he was

12. He recalls a time when the only people he and his siblings could relate to were gang members.

“The road to this moment has been amazing” says De-Leon, the first in his family to go to college and graduate. “Now I want to be the type of teacher that unfortunately,– I didn’t have. Every class taken at SU helped me move forward to be the teacher I want to be.”

“At SU, I’ve learned: Be bold, challenge yourself, chal-lenge your students. Don’t underestimate those you teach. They may be bright and defiant, but when you reach them, that bond will last.”

One of his proudest achievements came when he was a student teacher at Black River High School, an alternative

school in the Renton School District that closed in 2010.“I noticed all the students would save their rage until

Fridays and then there would be a lot of fights. I chose to go to work dressed nicely and my students would often ask why I was so dressed up to go to the ghetto. I told them if you look good, you feel good. So I got this idea to challenge students to dress up on Fridays.

“The first time, it looked like a prom scene, with prom dresses and formal wear,” he says. “The next week, they started to dress professionally and the fights started to disap-pear. Pretty soon, it became school wide. Fresh Fridays, it was called. And you know, there were zero fights on Fridays in what had been considered a problem school.”

“Now I want to be the type of teacher that unfortunately I didn’t have. Every class I’ve taken at SU has helped me move forward to be the teacher I want to be.”monico deLeon, mIt ’09

FINdINg hIS voICeKeith Jang-Hoon Seo left his native Korea for boarding

school in Canada in hopes of learning English. After years of careful study and practice, he has an expert grasp, but it was another language altogether that provided one of his most meaningful experiences at Seattle University School of Law.

Seo earned a B.A. in Spanish and a minor in Japanese. While in law school, he volunteered for CASA Latina, which is dedicated to empowering Latino immigrants. Working for the Wage Claim Project, he helped Hispanic workers

recover more than $23,000 in unpaid wages. Many are undocumented workers who fear deportation if they speak up for themselves.

“These are husbands and fathers who have family mem-bers often depending solely on their income,” Seo says. “With no savings, if there is no income for even a month, they suffer tremendously, barely making ends meet.”

One particularly rewarding case involved workers who

were hired by an Asian contractor who refused to pay them for their services. Seo helped them recover what was right-fully theirs.

“These workers were very skeptical that an Asian person would or could help them because they were lied to by an-other Asian person,” Seo says. “They were surprised when I spoke to them in Spanish, but they opened up to me and later called me ‘amable,’ which means ‘kind.’ That I was able not only to help them be paid, but also to cure their emotional injury was very fulfilling.”

Seo didn’t envision himself in law school, but another situation involving language set him on the path. When his parents were in a car accident in the United States, he saw how hard it was for them to communicate with lawyers and insurance companies with their limited English skills.

“I realized if a lawyer spoke their language, it would benefit them, and I thought I could do that for other im-migrants,” says Seo, an attorney with the Seattle law firm Riddell Williams.

He was drawn to Seattle University School of Law’s twin goals of academic excellence and education for justice. He credits the law school’s top-ranked Legal Writing Program for helping him develop writing skills that have been praised by judges and employers.

“The Legal Writing Program is top-notch. The quality of the faculty is impressive. The first-year professors really got me interested in the law. For me law school was about justice, but it is also about intellectual challenge and stimulation.”

LeArNINg From the vULNerAbLe

Seattle University’s College of Nursing is addressing concerns of the homeless who are medically fragile.

The initiative focuses on King County with an emphasis on Lake City, eight miles northeast of downtown Seattle. At its heart is Natalie Sloan, a second-year student in the Advanced Practice Nursing Immersion program. She says her commitment to social justice inspired her to want to be part of the initiative.

“I see myself as more of a resource,” she says.Sloan, originally from Battle Ground, Wash., joined

the Peace Corps after she graduated from Washington State University-Vancouver with a bachelor’s degree in psychol-ogy. She spent two years doing community health work in the Islamic Republic of Mauritania before weighing her options and deciding to study leadership and community health at SU.

It was SU undergraduate nursing students who discovered God’s Lil Acre, a homeless drop-in center eight miles north-east of downtown Seattle. Soon, a collaborative partnership developed in Lake City where the Seattle Mennonite Church had created a community ministry to respond to neighbor-hood homelessness.

Nursing students began to spend time at God’s Lil Acre taking blood pressure, dressing wounds and discussing good health. It wasn’t long before they realized Band-Aids wouldn’t do much to address the health needs of the homeless, however.

Obesity, congestive heart failure, chronic hypertension and diabetes are some of the common health problems. Threats, intimidation and traumas greatly challenge the survival of this vulnerable population. Statistically, the home-less die 30 years younger than the rest of the population—in their 50s rather than 80s.

“I’ve learned the power of listening. It’s profound how people hearing themselves talk out loud can be life changing.”Natalie Sloan, APNI student

As a graduate research assistant, Sloan is now interviewing those who come through the drop-in center to determine how a new respite care center might best serve them. She also assists with community assessments to help develop what will become a resource for the homeless who are recuperating from major illnesses and surgeries.

Sloan hopes to better understand where homeless indi-viduals go when they’re discharged from hospitals and where they currently get care. She’s also looking for the reasons the homeless may have turned down opportunities for respite care after hospitalization.

“God’s Lil Acre is a safe and respectful place to talk to someone as a human being,” says Sloan.

She says she is grateful for the openness of this population to share unique and traumatic stories.

“They’ve taught me there is still a great deal of stigma

and misinformation toward homelessness by the general public,” she says. “I’ve learned the power of listening. It’s profound how people hearing themselves talk out loud can be life changing.

“Nobody starts out life thinking this is where they’ll end up. I want to learn how to use my voice to share their stories. How do you tell the stories of others so they’re heard in a fair way? That’s what I’m here to learn.”

15As part of his capstone project, George Makarenko teamed up with other students to serve the needs of the brain injured.

College of Science and EngineeringSeattle University has long been a leader in software engineering education. We established the world’s first master of software engineering degree program in 1979. throughout our history, our program has been shaped by relationships with leaders in the industry. today, we offer two graduate programs in computing. the master of Software engineering program builds upon students’ professional experience, enhancing their technical and project management abilities. the master of Science in Computer Science program focuses on the development of technical depth as well as research and lifelong learning skills.

AddreSSINg brAIN INJUrIeSGeorge Makarenko had the foresight to recognize his

career as a program manager for Microsoft Corp. might call for stronger skills in software development.

“Over the three years I was in the MSE program, I grew technically on my job at Microsoft and that was important for me,” he says.

A Russian native from near Moscow, Makarenko first came to the U.S. in the mid-’90s as a high school foreign exchange student and landed in Castle Rock, Wash. He later attended Lower Columbia College in Longview before he enrolled at Washington State University in Pullman, where he majored in the management of information systems and international business as an undergraduate and in finance for his MBA.

He says Seattle University offered the best option for a grad-uate degree program in software engineering. “This program was specifically what I wanted—a combination of computer science, software engineering and project management. With its evening classes, SU’s MSE program is tailored to people who are working for companies like Microsoft and Boeing.”

As he reflects on his studies at SU, Makarenko says his greatest challenge was his capstone project, which gave him an opportunity to make a difference for those with traumatic brain injuries.

He and two other students were involved in develop-ment, testing and architecture for a community service project submitted by Kathy Moeller, who sustained a brain injury in 1990. This founder of Cognitive Harmonics Inc. in Jacksonville, Ore., was moved by her personal experience to explore ways for those with brain injuries to transition from medical and rehabilitation environments back to daily life. In 1993, she created a paper-based system called the BRAINBOOK®, a life management system to assist with mild to severe short-term memory impairment.

“Kathy enables people not only to be more independent but also to go back to work and recover with much less supervision. This project had several elements—creativity, contribution to a community and flexibility—and that’s why we picked it. It wasn’t something defined and simple,” Makarenko says of the Cognitive Bionics project. “And it turned out to be the pinnacle with challenges we never had to face before.”

While they weren’t able to build all that Moeller hoped for in an academic year, Makarenko and his fellow students did create the architecture and design for a platform and built documentation for the features she wanted.

“The students were brilliant and wonderful to work with. They really imagined what it would be like to live with a brain injury,” Moeller says.

The system the students created was based on Moeller’s extensive research, yet they had to think through the needs of the brain injured and those professionals who treat them. They had to explore ways to alert professionals when someone with a brain injury should be prompted to take medication. They also had to develop cues for the brain injured about everything from brushing their teeth to knowing who they are.

“Dealing with a real-life problem and contributing something meaningful was especially worthwhile,” says Makarenko. “I had to rebuild one of my home computers to be the server for our project. That was part of the fun.”

“Over the three years I was in the MSE program, I grew technically on my job at Microsoft and that was important for me.”george makarenko, mSe ’11

Herbie Martin has a history of working in the community. He’s volunteered as an assistant pastor for Seattle’s Mount Zion Baptist Church and Renton’s New Beginning Christian Fellowship, co-founded a youth mentorship program and advocated for the health of the homeless through a Harbor-view Medical Center citizen advisory board.

He’s also a state Department of Social and Health Services intake worker, assisting needy people as they come into the system.

So when he filled out the application for graduate work in the School of Theology and Ministry, he quickly saw his personal mission lining up with Seattle University’s mission of justice and service.

“It went hand in hand with the Jesuit philosophy of social justice in action, with the involvement in the community for the least, the lost and the left-behind,” he says.

Over the years of study for his Master of Arts in Pastoral Studies, Martin furthered his sense of justice as well as his knowledge of himself, his awareness of God and his sense of direction and purpose.

Raised in the Baptist tradition, Martin spent 20 years as an Army MP and recruiter. As his work took him through 40 states and a dozen countries, he was struck by the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr.’s observation that Sunday service is “the most segregated hour” in America. That segregation, he says, creates a lack of clerical unity in fighting injustice.

“Our greatest witness will be when the church can put away differences of traditions and we look on our com-monalities and see our brotherly love,” he says. “When we know that injustice has happened in the community, all walks of life should be there to rally. Injustice to one is injustice to all.”

Martin himself spent much of his studies in a multicul-tural setting, with a year of service in the Japanese Baptist Church as youth director, preacher and Sunday school teacher. With about a dozen people from the church he spent Wednesdays tutoring kids at the Yesler Terrace Community Center. It gave him a better sense of himself.

“I’m comfortable with who I am now and with what I bring to the plate because of being placed outside of the norm,” he says.

It was a transformational experience, a sort of professional formation that is profoundly personal.

“This experience here helps me realize my goal and my objective: If I’m not doing something multicultural, I feel I’m not exercising or doing God’s will. Because in the 21st Century, that is where God is moving.”
