Pamela Besteman '96
During a winter practice for the Rowing Team, our coach had us play soccer on the Ski Hill. We had so much fun running up and down the hill, chasing the ball, tackling each other, and laughing our heads off while trying to beat our teammates.
George Jones '94
My favorite GVSU memory is Mrs. Jamison's writing exploration class. I learned so much about other people in that class as she really encouraged us to open up and share our stories.
Allison Klauer '13
One of my favorite Grand Valley memories is my Honors College study abroad trip to Ghana. Our group was introduced to Challenging Heights, a non-profit that rescues and rehabilitates children enslaved in the fishing industry.
