2006 Relay For Life

 

The 2006 Alma College Relay for Life luminaria ceremony

Participants in the Relay for Life event gather to hear words of hope from Dr. Robert Molina, associate professor of mathematics and computer science, who lost his wife, Brenda, to cancer shortly after they participated in the 2005 Relay for Life. Molina then led walkers in silence around the track lined with luminaria memorializing cancer victims. The 2006 Alma College event raised $30,000. There were 248 participants listed, including seven cancer survivors, 21 teams and 340 luminaria donated. Other people stopped to observe the Relay and participate in hourly events designed to raise additional money.

Spring Term courses offer students opportunities to break out of the “Alma Bubble.” Off-campus study, especially in a foreign country, shows you how you relate to the rest of the world and how the rest of the world views American people, politics and policies. You can then integrate your real world experiences into your academic programs and your future career.
