Frank Knox’s accomplishments are extraordinary: From fighting alongside Teddy Roosevelt and the Rough Riders and publishing the Chicago Daily News vice presidential candidate in 1936 to Secretary of the Navy under Franklin D. Roosevelt. Through it all, the 1912 graduate stayed true to his Alma College roots. His portrait adorns the conference room in the Reid-Knox Administration Building.

A childhood interest in nature became a love of bird watching for Alma College lab instructor Mike Bishop.

“A few people have called my interest in birds obsessive,” he says. “I prefer passionate.”
