Student Profile
Katie Greenough
Graduation: 2014
Major: Music
What Katie Greenough has learned at Alma College goes beyond music theory and computer skills: She also has mastered carpentry.
During an Alternative Break trip, the music major helped rebuild an Alabama town that had been ravaged by a tornado. She says the experience changed her life.
“I got to build a railing for someone’s house, which made me feel so proud that I really helped people in a tangible way,” she says. “Because it was a faith-based trip, the experience also strengthened my faith in ways I didn’t even know it needed strengthening.”
