My favorite Grand Valley memory was when I proposed to my wife, Valerie, with the Laker Marching Band playing behind us. We met during our freshman year in the LMB and have now been together for almost 9 years.

Having the opportunity to learn more about my favorite subjects on one campus was so special. I will never forget how thankful I felt to be able to live the dream of pursuing both dance and biology.

My time as a graduate fellow at the Van Andel Global Trade Center was indispensable in creating and obtaining a formative experience at GVSU. It's one of the best service-delivery-to-community programs that the university has.

Starting on the first basketball team at GV
Kathleen Bell '81 & '99
It was the mid to late 70s and I'm sure like many, it was a great time to be a grand valley. The best was being in the first marching band ever and all the craziness that was and co-authoring the GVSC Fight Song.
Judith Majnun Miller-Lindsey '78
Learning to develop & print black and white film as well as color - doing it the old-fashioned way. Professor Whitney Sevin was an amazing teacher.
Breanne Dalm '19 & '22
It's so hard to choose one favorite Grand Valley memory, but I would say attending the football games with my parents would be my favorite. My brother was in the Grand Valley marching band so we would always enjoy watching him play.

My favorite memory from Grand Valley was meeting my best friend and navigating life together as young adults.

I have so many great memories working in Dr. Khoo's lab! Those were the best times.
Anna Barry-Wolbers '17 & '18
One of my favorite memories is meeting Dr. Hart and talking about cancer biology research. That conversation has kept me motivated throughout the years and will continue to help me persevere and have confidence in my abilities.
