Communication Studies Major and Minor

Albion College student Andrew Renner ’25 recently completed an internship at an Amazon facility in Texas.

Albion was one of only two liberal arts colleges to earn awards in this year’s division.

The Gerstacker Institute student pursues a human resources path while balancing leadership roles in athletics and Greek life.

The Gerstacker Institute student and Albion golf team member drives gift shop sales as a USGA merchandising intern.

A summer internship with the newspaper’s Op/Ed team offered an appreciation for journalistic integrity and the continuing importance of traditional media.

In addition to his studies, Chris Bell, ’20, gives back to the Albion community as part of the College’s Build Albion Fellows Program. Little did he know that he also would have a month-long opportunity this year to give back to Albion’s sister cities, Noisy-le-Roi and Bailly, France.

With an eye toward the future and a nod to the past, Albion College has established two new majors that will put a fresh spin on traditional subjects. Integrated marketing communication will be added in the Department of Communication Studies, while marketing management will be available in the Department of Economics and Management.

In deciding to attend Albion College, Sarah Kilbreath, ’20, assumed she would give up her dream of working in media production. But thanks to The Philadelphia Center, Kilbreath spent the fall semester on shoot sets, in editing rooms and drinking a lot of 5 a.m. coffee, getting valuable experience in a field she hopes will become a career.

A handful of students from Albion College, as well as from Alma College and Calvin College, are on the cutting edge of education through a new pilot program that partners with tech giant Google, furniture maker Steelcase and the Michigan Colleges Alliance.
