The FIFA World Cup begins on June 11 and this year the United States is co-hosting! ⚽️🏟️ We sat down with GVSU anthropology professor Tara Hefferan to learn what it means for the US and how hosting the World Cup differs from other major sporting events: gvsu.edu/s/3H8

Our dog, Happy, gets comically confused and excited every time the @wingstop commercial with a doorbell sound effect comes on during #NFL games.

We honor the lives we lost 23 years ago today. We're forever grateful for the bravery of the flight crews, firefighters, police officers, EMTs, DOT employees, transportation workers, and other first responders who stepped up to help each other in the face of terrorism.

Great memories of this place, but much of it already seemed very dated when I attended 30 years ago. Go Broncos! Excited to see the progress.

Would be interesting to count lost productivity on Zoom calls from low-quality PC mics. Never seem to have this issue with people on modern Macs. "Matt, you're breaking up. Turn your head."

A dog kept escaping an animal shelter in northern Michigan and sneaking into a nursing home, even after being sent back. So the nurses there had a decision to make. In today's Detroit Free Press: bit.ly/485wb8H

Reported an account spamming a #FB page I help manage with bogus merch links. #FB did nothing. When appealed, it blamed COVID (seriously?) for a lack of people to review reports a 2nd time. This election season could be a doozy. #Election2024

Do you remember when you joined X? No? I don’t either. I did join Twitter 15 years ago, though, and X wants credit for all those years. #MyXAnniversary #MyTwitterAnniversary

It was a conversation with retired Grand Valley professor Kathleen Blumreich that first led Justice Kyra Harris Bolden ’10 to apply to law school. ⚖️ Now, she is the first Black woman to sit on Michigan’s Supreme Court. Read more of Justice Bolden’s story: gvsu.edu/s/2nv

Fun fact on a sad day: Ike & Tina Turner played @GVSU (then GVSC) in 1971 to a record crowd of 3500. Students complained about the $3.50 price of admission, but when they played "Proud Mary" it "set the whole place afire," according to the @GVLanthorn RIP to a true legend.
