Twenty minute talk on the assessment process developed for the Alma College Mathematics major. Presented in the special contributed paper session on assessment at the annual winter national meeting of the Mathematical Association of America.
Alma College ranks second in the nation in the percentage of students who participate in alternative break service trips, according to Break Away, the national organization that supports the development of alternative break experiences that inspire lifelong active citizenship. Last year, Alma students provided flood relief, built affordable homes, planned activities for terminally ill children, constructed wheelchair ramps, worked with immigrants, and assisted in after-school programs.

Graduation: 2004
Major: French
Alice Sova-Stoneback ’04 first studied French as a high school student. Now, she’s back in high school teaching it.
“French is my first love,” she says. “My grandmother is a native of France, and I still have immediate family who live there. Being a French major was a great way to apply this background.”
