The grant, a Professional Development Award, will help faculty members assist students with exploration to find their purpose and explore their options throughout college.

The Forward Together Grant will support the university’s School of Education Literacy in the Community project. The project will have two parts, both focused on strengthening literacy in Evansville, Indiana.

The program is a Doctor of Medicine and Master of Science in Health Informatics (M.D. + M.S.) degree program, which is a collaboration between the university’s Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine and the Lewis College of Business.

The articulation agreements are seamless transfer agreements for students pursuing bachelor degrees in Child Development or Supervisory Management.

The new initiative will give high school students the opportunity to experience different careers in virtual reality.

The $1.2 million grant will fund the university’s Project Shine–“Supporting High-Intensity Needs in Early Intervention and Early Childhood Special Education.”

The new articulation agreements will help students at Jackson College, Lansing Community College, and Montcalm Community College maximize their credits so they can transfer to Cleary University with junior standing.

The scholarship is in memory of alumna Sharon Whalen and is available to any Calvin University student to help them continue their education.

The scholarship is intended to support students from Gratiot, Isabella, and Montcalm counties in response to declining enrollment rates among students who come from rural counties in Michigan.

The collaboration involves students in the Controlled Environment Agriculture program growing produce in hydroponic units to stock in the university’s food pantry. The initiative is made possible through a $125,000 Swipe Out Hunger grant.
