Campus Life

From your first day on campus you'll find Alma is a friendly, welcoming place. You'll quickly make friends through your classes and your extracurricular activities, but your closest friends may very well become the people you live with in Alma's residence halls or other housing options.

Ways to be involved at Alma: If there was one word to describe Alma students, it might be involved. Alma students take their studies seriously, but they also put a great deal of energy into life outside the classroom.

 

Colleges of Distinction, a national college guide for students, parents and counselors, identifies Alma College as "one of the best places to learn, grow and succeed." The Colleges of Distinction publication recognizes institutions for their commitment to engaged students, great teaching, vibrant communities and successful outcomes.

Dr. George Choksy
Departments: Economics

Associate professor of economics George Choksy doesn’t think of teaching as a job but as a calling.

“I taught at five different colleges and universities for the first ten years of my career,” he says. “I kept moving around because I knew I could do better, find a better school. When Alma and I found each other, we knew it was a marriage made in heaven.”
