Organized the 18th annual MATH Challenge for College Students
The MATH Challenge is a team-oriented competition among mostly small colleges. I have organized this event for the past 11 years. We had 45 teams from 17 different institutions participate in the 2004 MATH Challenge which was held on Nov. 6, 2004.
Alma College is among the top 40 baccalaureate institutions in the country for the percentage of students who choose to study abroad, according to a report published by the Institute for International Education. Among Alma’s graduates in the 2009–10 academic year, 61.4 percent participated in study abroad, which ranked 37th in the nation.
30 Hour Famine
Students at Alma College are starving to make a difference. They organized the 30 Hour Famine, an international youth movement sponsored by World Vision International, to raise money for food, clean water and other resources for impoverished people in developing countries. The students fasted for 30 hours to experience the hunger that a billion people in the world experience daily.
