Nominations for the 12th annual “I Am Grand Valley” student leadership recognition campaign opened October 1.  

Students, faculty and staff members can nominate students who display and employ strong leadership skills that affect the campus community. Nominations are due December 5 and can be submitted online at www.gvsu.edu/iamgv.

The Office of Student Life will distribute “I Am Grand Valley” shirts and certificates to nominated students to wear on the first Wednesday of every month. The next “I Am Grand Valley” Day will take place November 5.
