Inspired by this morning’s celebration of life-changing stories at the YMCA’s Hour of Impact: This Is Y breakfast! From youth programs to senior wellness, the Y continues to build connection, confidence, and belonging across West Michigan. 💙 #ThisIsY #GVSU

Today we celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day and honor the vibrant cultures, histories, and contributions of Indigenous communities. At GVSU, we’re proud to support Indigenous students and the knowledge, leadership, and tradition they bring to our campus. #IndigenousPeoplesDay2025

ACCESS gets students in the door. A sense of BELONGING is what gets them to stay and thrive.
I’m proud of how GVSU is creating spaces for every learner to feel seen, supported, and equipped to succeed. #TurningWhatIfIntoWhatIs #StudentSuccess

At Grand Valley, we’re building early partnerships through our 8th Grade Pathways to GVSU program, Gear UP, and TRIO programs that help students see themselves in higher education sooner. The results are transformational. 🎓💙 #AccessToOpportunity #GVSU

Grateful to join Oliver Wilson Scholars and Institutional Advancement to hear from GVSU alumnus and entrepreneur Michael Herrema, ’00, about perseverance, innovation, and community. His story reflects the power of mentorship, belonging, and resilience—core to GVSU’s mission. 💙

GVSU’s commitment to reducing financial barriers to college continues with Monday’s partnership announcement to provide funding for Promise Zone students who graduate from Grand Rapids Community College. This investment will positively impact both students and the community.

Congratulations to GVSU’s Office of Student Support and Belonging on the grand opening of their new office. This space will be a place where students can find connection, resources, and a sense of belonging throughout their journey at GVSU.
