Frank Knox’s accomplishments are extraordinary: From fighting alongside Teddy Roosevelt and the Rough Riders and publishing the Chicago Daily News vice presidential candidate in 1936 to Secretary of the Navy under Franklin D. Roosevelt. Through it all, the 1912 graduate stayed true to his Alma College roots. His portrait adorns the conference room in the Reid-Knox Administration Building.

Dr. Chih-Ping Chen’s fascination for literature and the English language was inspired from reading Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre when she was just 14 years old. Originally from Taiwan, Chen says, “Although English literature can be quite a challenge, it opens doors to many places.”
