Spring Term at Alma is a one-month immersion on a single academic topic that offers learning experiences not typically available during the more traditional 15-week fall and winter terms. For example, during Spring Term 2012, students observed lizards in Bermuda, studied modern economic development in India, performed dance in Taiwan, examined renewable energy in Europe and investigated medicinal plants in the Amazon rainforest.

Major: Mathematics
Katie Krauss’ love of her favorite subject multiplies exponentially when she has the chance to share it with others, which is why she is working toward a career in secondary education at Alma College.
“Math was always something I was very good at and enjoyed doing, but in high school, I realized my favorite part of math was not the actual work, but instead, helping my friends understand [it],” she says. “I realized that being a math teacher made sense.”
