The Grand Valley State Hall of Fame, highlighting leaders who have contributed to the university's growth through their vision and gifts, has a new, larger location in the Eberhard Center.
Portraits of Founders Award, Grand Stewards Award and Enrichment Award recipients now line the west gallery on the building's second floor.
Laura Aikens, vice president for University Development, said Hall of Fame inductees epitomize a deep commitment to supporting students in West Michigan.
“The donors included in our Hall of Fame built Grand Valley State University from the ground up through their time, effort and investment," Aikens said. "As Grand Valley continues to grow and we expand our donor base, they provide an example of deep commitment to higher education and to our region. I look forward to seeing how their stories inspire generations of philanthropists to come.”
