Hope for Our Future: Bridging Generations
|
Along with hearing the story of one of our Kaufman Scholars at our annual Interfaith Leadership Dinner two weeks ago, we also heard from Cecelia Olson, a Kaufman Campus Intern and recent graduate from Grand Valley. She shared about her experiences cultivating community on campus - from engaging in casual conversation about worldview identity in the lunch line to creating intentional spaces of connection across difference. While the Kaufman staff is very sad to see her complete her time at GVSU, we know she will bring her passion for relationship-building with her wherever she goes, and we wish her the best of luck!
Watch Cecelia's compelling remarks here.

|
These are days of making important decisions. Nations are deciding how to respond to attacks, institutions are responding to unrest on campuses, individuals are deciding who to elect. Often literature helps frame our decisions. This Insight from 2015 looks at a novel by John Steinbeck.
