Alma College’s sports teams have been known as the “Scots” since 1931 when Alma students voted on the name. Soon thereafter, “Scotty” emerged as Alma’s official mascot and is regularly seen on campus, in the community and at athletics events.

 

Graduate Profile

Amy Doucette
Graduation: 1995
Major: Exercise and Health Science, Art and Design

Through her experiences at Alma College, Amy Doucette learned that occupational therapy is more than a profession — it’s a philosophy.

“It is about helping people regain balance and meaning in their lives after a setback, whether physical, mental or social — the scope of treatment is huge,” the 1995 graduate says. “It involves teaching, adapting, promoting recovery, providing resources and rehabilitating the upper extremity in helping people return to their activities of daily living.”
