Friends, colleagues and community members,

Thank you for visiting this site. My goal is to provide all of you with the means to learn and engage more and more efficiently regardless of who you are - a GVSU student, GVSU faculty, GVSU staff, GVSU alumni or a member of one of the many communities GVSU serves.

This site is designed to provide a window to all things community engagement here at Grand Valley State University. With a distinct institutional mission of, “Educating students to shape their lives, their professions, and their societies,” our work with the communities we serve is never complete and subsequently neither is the content of this site.

If you are a GVSU faculty or staff member and you have a GVSU webpage or an event that supports, shares or informs community engagement in your area and you do not see your site listed under the umbrella graphic, in our events section or in one of our indexes please let us know so we can get it added.

If you are a community member and looking to connect with GVSU faculty, staff, students or alumni please consider exploring this site through the ‘For Community members’ index box. If you still cannot find what you are looking for or are unable or unsure of how to proceed, please do not hesitate to reach out to our office at [email protected] or me, [email protected], (616) 331-2400.

I encourage all of you to visit this site often as we will be adding new content and resources for all stakeholders (faculty/staff, students, alumni and community members) regularly.

Best regards,

Travus Burton
