Mission  
School mission: Alma College, a four-year liberal arts college in the middle of Michigan's Lower Peninsula, offers a personalized education that engages students in transformative learning experiences. Founded in 1886 and affiliated with the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), Alma is committed to a quality undergraduate education and the development of responsible leaders through its Center for Responsible Leadership. Academic excellence and a deep regard for students as individuals are fundamental to its educational residential programs. Its small size enables many opportunities for one-on-one collaboration with faculty. Students also participate in research, community service and study abroad activities. Alma's mission is to prepare graduates who think critically, serve generously, lead purposefully and live responsibly as stewards of the world they bequeath to future generations.
