MONMOUTH, ILLINOIS (09/25/2019) — Emma Freyermuth, a student from Muscatine, Iowa, was accepted into and participated in Monmouth College's 2019 SOFIA program. SOFIA, or Summer Opportunities for Intellectual Activities, is an innovative three-week program that allows select new and returning students to conduct in-depth research and inquiry with Monmouth faculty. Students participated in a myriad of research-projects ranging from studying wolves at Isle Royal National Park to studying ancient Greek athletics.

Affiliated with the Presbyterian Church (USA) and the birthplace of the women's fraternity movement, the college offers 38 majors, 42 minors, 17 pre-professional tracks, and two innovative Triads in Global Food Security and Global Public Health.
