Summer vacation is (nearly) upon us at Grand Valley State University, and as we cram for exams and polish off our final papers, the thought of summer is what drives many of us toward the semester’s end. And while you all depart on what we hope will be a summer full of opportunities and new experiences, we encourage you to stay connected with the university through the Lanthorn’s summer print editions, website and social media.

This summer, the Lanthorn will be increasing its summer publication schedule, publishing twice-monthly through July in hopes of giving you the best coverage possible. Those of you who will be on campus can pick up our print editions on newsstands on both the Allendale and Pew campuses, while the articles will be available online for those who are spending their summer away from the Allendale area. We will also be updating our website, www.lanthorn.com, daily to keep you up to date on all of the news, sports and features that happen on our campuses while you work on your tan.

For news on the go, stay plugged in to the Lanthorn’s Twitter and Facebook accounts for announcements, reminders and links to our exclusive web content. And if you have a suggestion, question or comment for us, don’t hesitate to drop us a line and let us know.
