I absolutely loved Kleiner late night. I lived in Kistler, and my friend group would spend hours in Kleiner studying, dancing, and joking around. This really shaped my sense of belonging at GVSU.

My favorite Grand Valley memory was being in all of the organizations that I was a member of made my time at Grand Valley.
Samantha Allman '20
My favorite Grand Valley memory has got to be every moment in the College of Education. I became so close with my cohort because we took every class together, worked on math proofs, and collaborated on teaching strategies together.
Sonja Forte '03
One of my most unique memories was my freshman year, Takeelia Garrett (who is still part of the GV team) took me to Dean Merkles house to bake Christmas cookies.
Brandi Berry '02 & '03
Since graduating from GVSU, I have spent 20 years working in local child welfare services. I have since moved on to the Health Department where I supervise two local public health programs.
Takeelia Garrett '96 & '00
My favorite GVSU memory is singing at the football stadium with the Voices of GVSU. That was so much fun even though it was cold.
Marcus Watson '94
Winning the intramural basketball tournament with a great group of friends!
Scott Morton '07
Studying in the old library with classmates right before finals! The comradery, sharing of ideas, strategies, stories and knowledge made my last year at Grand Valley State my favorite.
Carissa Patrone Maikuri '12 & '18
Some of my favorite memories that I cherish were from discussions during my Spanish class with Zulema Moret focused on feminist voices from Latin America.
Kelly Holst-Haley '11
Being a part of Campus Ministry is my favorite GV memory. We always had a lot of fun and I met some of my best friends through there.
