Granholm announces trustee appointments

Gov. Jennifer M. Granholm has appointed two new members to Grand Valley State University's Board of Trustees for terms beginning January 2011.
 
The new appointees are Douglas W. Crim of Haslett, an attorney with the Lansing office of Miller Canfield, and Mary Kramer of Detroit, publisher of Crain's Detroit Business. Both are graduates of Grand Valley and active in the Alumni Association. President Thomas J. Haas spoke to each of them thanking them for their willingness to serve the university.
 
These appointments stand unless the Senate rejects them within 60 days of Granholm's  appointment, on or before Sept. 1. If confirmed by the Senate, Crim and Kramer will succeed Trustees Dorothy Johnson and Lucille Taylor on January 1, 2011.
