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.

Major: Philosophy and Psychology
Who? Ethan Gensler. Where? Alma College. Why? Why not! It’s the perfect place for the Ohio senior who loves asking questions.
By double majoring in philosophy and psychology, Gensler’s getting more than yes-or-no answers.
“I like thinking about the big questions: Why some acts are right or wrong, why some people are predisposed to certain actions, and how we understand human ethics—those things all matter to me,” he says.
