COLLEGE PARK, Md. (ELCA) -- For nearly 45 years, the Rev. Elizabeth
A. Platz has served here at the University of Maryland (UM), quietly
influencing generations of Lutheran students to remain active in the
church and in service to others. Those whose lives she has touched speak
highly of Platz's influence on them, her dedication to the church and
some wonderful home-cooked meals she serves to hungry college students.
