Faculty List
Alma College’s first-year students can choose to “go green” through the Get Out Bike Program, designed to reduce their carbon impact. By signing a pledge not to bring a car to campus, participants in the program receive a bike to keep at a discounted rate. Downtown businesses are easily accessible to student cyclists. Campus also is bordered by the 41-mile Fred Meijer Heartland Trail.
Graduate Profile
Tyler Martinez
Graduation: 2008
Major: Economics and Philosophy
“Economics has everything to do with, well everything!”
These are the words of Tyler Martinez, a philosophy and economics alumnus, who knew early on that money makes the world go ’round.
“Robert Cunningham put economics into perspective for me,” says Martinez, who graduated in 2008. “Now I find it hard to leave economic terms out of my daily conversations with family and friends.”
