GVSU Student Clubs
The Geography and Sustainable Planning Department is actively supporting several student organizations, such as the Association of Student Geographers and Planners Instagram.
Association of Student Geographers and Planners
The Grand Valley Association of Student Geographers and Planners Facebook Page is for students of the Geography and Sustainable Planning Department and students outside of the geography major.
This group engages in activities like attending regional and national academic conferences, presenting student research, organizing local service and volunteering opportunities, enjoying the outdoors, and forming a student peer and faculty interest group.

Students of Citizens' Climate Lobby
Students of Citizens' Climate Lobby provides a welcoming community in which students can come together and act on their climate concerns by advocating and lobbying for bipartisan legislation reform. Our goal is to establish a sustainable foundation to push for climate action across all geographic regions. CCL focuses on using shared values rather than growing the political divide to make significant change. CCL focuses on putting a price on carbon, electrification, healthy forests, and permitting reform. Throughout the school year we will organize various events related to the core values of CCL to exercise our rights to influence legislation. We will meet each month to discuss and plan these events, talk about current climate related event happening around the world, and more. There will be numerous volunteer opportunities, internship opportunities, and amazing exposure to the field overall.

Student Environmental Coalition
The Student Environmental Coalition (SEC) is a service and advocacy organization intended to promote student interest in local, regional, and global environmental concerns. We organize educational events, campus cleanups, and community outreach programs within the Grand Valley student body and greater Grand Rapids area. Our mission is: “Helping to engage students at Grand Valley's campus' to be conscious citizens by promotion of environmental awareness.” We are dedicated to sustainability related issues in hopes that our fellow students may learn to conserve natural resources and care more about their local environment.
