Alma College was born on Oct. 14, 1886. George F. Hunting was appointed the College’s first president and professor of moral and mental science. The College’s founding was made possible by Ammi W. Wright, a lumberman, businessman and civic leader who gave 30 acres of land and more than $300,000 to found and sustain the institution in its early years.

Graduation: 2014
Major: Biochemistry
With a passion for science and the power to make people smile, Connor Welsh put two and two together when he decided to major in biochemistry.
“As corny as it sounds, I like helping people,” he says. “I feel like I could really make a difference, so my goal is to go to med school and study anesthesiology or dermatology.”
