Business & Management Career Community
Manfred Tatzmann '70
1. Tell us about your journey since graduation.
GVSU has provided me with a solid base for the last 53 years of
my life and especially my career. GVSU provided me with a solid
in-depth education that has served me well as I traveled from one
career to another. GVSU taught me critical thinking, sharing
experiences with others, and valuing diversity.
2. Share a favorite Grand Valley memory.
The thrill of being on a new campus where Vietnam protests were
as accepted as the traditional West Michigan values. Most important
though is meeting my wife and developing lifelong friendships.
3. What's the best piece of advice you've ever received?
Keep learning and stay active!
4. List three words you would use to describe your Grand
Valley experience.
Fun, Informative, and Meaningful
5. What difference would you like to make in the world?
I have been fortunate to have been able to make a difference over
the years, yet I don't plan on stopping now, especially when it comes
to working for peace in the world and acceptance of all people and faiths.
