P-GLOBAL Leadership

P-Global – Act on your passion

Chris Chesney in South Africa

For some students, international travel sparks a desire for something more. More than just an interest in travel, more than an interest in a particular country. In some, it ignites a passion. The P-Global experience gives students a chance to act on that passion while developing leadership skills.

P-Global offers Alma students a scholarship to travel anywhere in the world and complete a project of their own design, thanks to a generous gift of over $2 million from alumni Lee and Sally Posey. Projects include:

Brittany Law works on a farm
  • Non-profit internships
  • Independent research projects
  • Seminars
  • Conferences
  • Work related to global issues

Alma students have completed projects in topics ranging from teaching to public policy, in places from the Philippines to South Africa.

P-Global also helps support Alma’s award-winning Model UN team.

 

Thirty-four percent of Alma students participate in intercollegiate athletics. Alma College competes at the NCAA Division III level as a member of the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association, the oldest existing athletic conference in the nation.
