Alma Public Schools Science Olympiad Participation
Worked with a group of parents in Fall 2010 to restart the Science Olympiad program here in Alma for local school students. Working with students this Winter as a tutor/coach as needed.
Students conducting research side-by-side with faculty has been an Alma College legacy for generations. Alma students team up with faculty on scholarly research or to collaborate on creative or performing arts projects. An annual Honors Day features student presentations, performances and exhibits. Many students present such work at regional, national and international meetings.

Graduation: 2014
Major: Religious Studies and Political Science
St. Joseph junior Ryan Zavacky is a culture buff who is creating a worldly undergraduate experience for himself through his double major in religious studies and political science.
“I love learning about a country’s culture,” he says. “I knew that by studying religion, I could learn about a specific aspect of culture that relates to culture as a whole, often in connection with politics.”
