Alma College’s nationally recognized Model United Nations program has won top honors for 16 consecutive years (1997–2012) — the longest active winning streak of any college or university in the nation. Alma College’s all-time 30 “outstanding delegation” awards are the most of any college or university in the 90-year history of the conference.

Richard Allen ’12 received the Lee and Sally Souders Posey Endowed Scholarship. In his thank-you letter, he wrote:

“The scholarship allowed me to work with children both in orphanages and on the streets throughout Ukraine. This experience … has opened my mind to a culture that is fascinating and unforgettable.”
