We are experiencing a collective trauma. Similar to other traumas, we see a range of responses. People are experiencing depression, anxiety, fatigue, frustration, denial, numbness, & grief. Have compassion for yourself and for those who may respond differently. #QuarantineQuotes

Dear Students,

Your intelligence cannot be measured by a number. Your intelligence is defined by your willingness to learn, problem solve and try new things. You are more than a number. You are a brilliant person with unique ideas. Share them!

Sincerely,
Your Teachers ❤️

Thirteen GUI students visited @GrandViewUniv today to learn more about the campus, financial aid, getting involved, and much more. They had the awesome opportunity to experience hands-on classroom experience in fields like business and nursing. #GEARUPworks

STUDENTS!!!🗣You can help other students get to and through college by sharing your story and advice! Your story can help others know that they are not alone, and that even though you may struggle - YOU belong in college.
