Thoughts on Time at Grand Valley:
“Completing my undergraduate degree at GVSU was the best decision
I could have made. As a transfer student from a community college, I
researched local colleges in the West Michigan area to complete my
four-year degree at. I selected GVSU because of their strong
reputation for producing great teachers and the high-quality
professors I would get the privilege to work with. Dr. Colleen Lewis
and Dr. Ingrid Johnson were instrumental in molding me into the
educator that I have become. Not only did I leave GVSU with the
content knowledge to deliver a highly effective physical education
& health curriculum to K-12 students, but I was taught how to be a
teacher that makes a difference not only in his students lives, but
the community he works in as well. Anyone that is considering GVSU
will not be disappointed! Go Lakers!"
