Graduate Profile

Joel Kimball
Graduation: 1988
Major: Psychology

Joel Kimball was attracted to psychology by the wide variety of opportunities within the field. In fact, a wide variety of opportunities was what attracted him to Alma College.

“The scientific rigor of psychology at Alma gives a very disciplined and data-driven approach, along with exceptional faculty,” the 1988 graduate says. “I was attracted to Alma by the opportunity to participate in many different activities while in school, as well as the quality of the liberal arts curriculum, faculty and size.”
