Students conducting research side-by-side with faculty has been an Alma College legacy for generations. Alma students team up with faculty on scholarly research or to collaborate on creative or performing arts projects. An annual Honors Day features student presentations, performances and exhibits. Many students present such work at regional, national and international meetings.
Dr. Kate Blanchard
Departments: Religious Studies
Kate Blanchard came to Alma College in 2006 after finishing her doctorate in Christian ethics at Duke University.
She knew she wanted to teach at a liberal arts college because that’s where she earned her undergraduate degree.
“I enjoy teaching because I like to learn,” she says.
