Some of my favorite memories come from my time running GrandPR, GVSU's student-run communications firm. It was both challenging and rewarding, and I met many of my closest friends because of it.
There are various ways to stay involved with the Padnos College of Engineering after graduation.

Some of my favorite memories are of all of the events I was lucky to attend and work as a student worker with University Development. I enjoyed going to football games, President's Ball, Enrichment Dinner, and Griffin's hockey games.
My best GVSU memory is meeting my best friend- Katarina Mannor (now Dean).
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.
It was the mid to late 70s and I'm sure like many, it was a great time to be a grand valley. The best was being in the first marching band ever and all the craziness that was and co-authoring the GVSC Fight Song.
