Alma College Statewide Print Competition on Display
Alma College and Michigan printmakers celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Annual Statewide Print Competition when it opened on November 14 in the College’s Flora Kirsch Beck Gallery. The show runs through Dec. 15.

 

Alma College received a $150,000 grant from the National Science Foundation in August 2009 for research that could eventually lead to the development of more effective drugs to treat and prevent certain kinds of influenza, including human infections of swine and avian flu. "This project provides an opportunity for students to get involved in important laboratory research," says faculty member Jeff Turk, principal investigator.

Alma’s off-campus study programs do more than place students in exciting locales to meet interesting people; they also create new opportunities for personal growth and skill development. One of the best ways to learn about other societies and cultures is to study and travel in international settings. You do not always have to know a foreign language.
