Grand Valley hosts statewide housing conference
Feb 13, 2012
More than 150 students from 10 Michigan colleges and universities
attended a statewide housing conference hosted by students from Grand
Valley.
The Residence Housing Association (RHA) at Grand Valley
organized the Michigan Organization of Residence Hall Associations
2012 Conference that took place on the Pew Grand Rapids Campus from
February 10-12.
Grand Valley students Michael Williams and Nathan Gerken
presented at the conference, where Gerken’s presentation about the
importance of teamwork, intercultural competency and critical
thinking, placed in the Top 10 Programs.
“The event was perfect and everyone had such a great time,” said
Williams, who served as Grand Valley’s delegation leader. “The idea is
that students will take programs they learned at the conference back
to their host institutions.”
Last summer, a group of students from Grand Valley attended
and presented at the National Association of College and
University Residence Hall (NACURH) annual conference at Western
Illinois University.
