Grand Valley's Board of Trustees heard Feb. 23 about multiple initiatives designed to build capacity and propel the university forward while providing critical opportunities for learners to access higher education.
President Philomena V. Mantella outlined how GVSU can address difficult broader state and national circumstances through its commitments to an empowering education, equity and innovation. Noting growing enrollment, Mantella called the university a beacon of progress and resilience amid the challenges Michigan faces in higher education enrollment.
Some of the ways GVSU is leading the way through its mission includes expanding adult learning, deepening investments in student success and support, providing more educational opportunities to meet student demand and pioneering the future of education through the Blue Dot ecosystem, Mantella said.
