Grand Valley State University President Thomas J. Haas sent a
message to the campus community Feb. 20:
Dear students, faculty, staff and members of the Grand Valley
community:
Police Chief Renee Freeman informed our campus
community of the death of one of our students. It is a time of great
sadness whenever we lose a member of our student family. I want to
express my deepest sympathies to the student’s family, friends and
classmates.
The death of a close friend is painful and
can be stressful. Grand Valley’s Counseling Center has staff members
available to assist those who are grieving or who need any type of
counseling. I want to especially encourage those who might feel in
distress to take advantage of the many programs we have available. The
Counseling Center can be reached at 331-3266.
Our thoughts
and prayers continue to be with family and friends now and in the
weeks to come.
Sincerely,
Thomas J. Haas
President
