Flagler College alum Abigale Kreinheder was awarded a grant from the Pulitzer Center to research the production of Kopi Luwak coffee in Indonesia, a research trip that soon became a formative life experience.

Every day that alumnus Jacob Harding (‘07) works with students, he channels the “wisdom, kindness, and compassion,” which retired Professor Steve Voguit shared generously every chance he could.

In their spare time between classes and semesters, Flagler Professor Tracy Halcomb and Visiting Faculty Filmmaker Jim Gilmore grabbed their cameras, hopped in the car, and spent four years filming a documentary that sheds light on a group of people who recruit professional baseball’s biggest stars and really “make the game happen.”
