Discuss the laws around drinking

The group is inviting students to attend and share their opinions on the laws surrounding the drinking age. Lakers for Liberty will also be sharing the rationale behind the current laws and why they still stand.

Help keep GVSU clean at the football game 

During the football game on Saturday, Sept. 30, students can volunteer to help clean up the stadium.
