Alma’s innovative PRISM project—Positive Routes Into Science and Mathematics—gets more students excited about science. It engages students in research opportunities not only in their first, second, third and fourth years of college but also in the summer prior to taking their first college course. PRISM is funded by a $500,000 grant from the National Science Foundation.

Katie Krauss

Katie Krauss
Graduation: 2015
Major: Mathematics

Katie Krauss’ love of her favorite subject multiplies exponentially when she has the chance to share it with others, which is why she is working toward a career in secondary education at Alma College.

“Math was always something I was very good at and enjoyed doing, but in high school, I realized my favorite part of math was not the actual work, but instead, helping my friends understand [it],” she says. “I realized that being a math teacher made sense.”
