Student Profile
Carrie Frame
Graduation: 2013
Major: English
While Carrie Frame is a writer who prefers the creative possibilities of fiction over nonfiction, she’s nonetheless enjoying the opportunity to draft a true story for herself at Alma College.
As an English major and writing minor, she has plenty of time to keep penning, penciling, scribbling and scrawling ideas from her imagination during class.
“It’s hard to find time to write recreationally in college, so I made the decision to take classes in writing,” she says. “That way, I’m earning credits and working toward my degree but also doing what I love.”
