Alumni Spotlights

Emily Miller '14 & '20

A favorite GVSU memory was creating and curating a student art show with my friend (also art teacher) Michelle Haapala. As art education majors, a final show was not part of our degree, but we wanted to show what our students could do.

Samantha Hardenburgh '03 & '05

Snow days were very scarce back when I was in college, but there was a winter where part of campus lost power in a blizzard. We played games by candlelight, went sledding and overall had a great time!

Emma Wallace '14

My favorite memories of GVSU are living in the Honors College dorms my freshmen year and all the new, lasting friendships I developed while living there, leading the Future Alumni Association and attending the CASE ASAP Conference at MSU with the e-board.

Lance Kibiloski '07

There were so many exciting moments being a new Freshman in college, and on top of that, the football was incredible on Saturday nights.

Savannah Herrmann '16

I have so many great Grand Valley memories! I really enjoyed attending the President's Ball and the Toast with T. Haas.

Amanda Hume '19

My favorite Grand Valley memory is attending Toast with T.Haas. This experience was something I was looking forward to since my involvement with Laker Traditions my freshman year.

Julia Higham '14

In 2014, GVSU had one of its few snow days when nearly two feet of snow fell overnight and all classes were cancelled. The campus turned into a giant winter wonderland and it was such a fun day.

Jessica Moskalewski '15 & '17

While at GVSU, I was a member of the Track & Field and Cross Country teams. My favorite memory was winning the cross country national meet in Louisville, KY during a festival year (2014) and finishing 1-2-3 with my teammates.

Bryan Tolinski '17

My favorite GV memory was being an RA in the same dorm that I lived in my freshman year and watching over the new class of freshmen coming in.

Taylor Farella '10

My favorite memory was the 2008 HTM Study Abroad Program in Italy!
