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: Accounting

Brendan McNeal’s mind works best when it’s thinking in terms of expenditures, interest and analytic procedures, so majoring in accounting was an obvious choice.
