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.

I loved meeting my friends for lunch at the commons on Wednesdays each week. These meet ups included pizza and a lot of laughs!
Madison Brooks '18
In 2017 I was on my sorority's executive board, Alpha Sigma Tau. I have always loved participating in sorority event coordination, helping train new members, and volunteering at Habitat for Humanity with my sorority sisters.

My favorite memory from Grand Valley would have to be the shows I did with my improv team Subject to Change. I can not express how amazing it was to find a group of like minded, hilarious, and amazing friends!
