Thomas Phillips settles in at Grand Valley



My first couple of months at Grand Valley have been excellent! I love living on the west side of the state; it’s been awesome to see the colors change recently. At the moment, I am a statistics and Spanish double major with a math minor, still looking to become an actuary in my future.

My classes have been very rewarding so far, and I have especially enjoyed my Spanish class. It has been exciting to strengthen my Spanish speaking and writing skills through conversations in class and writing essays; my future plans for Spanish involve studying abroad in Seville, Spain, in winter 2026. Outside of classes, I have been involved with both beach volleyball and an indoor volleyball intramural league. I am also deeply connected to Grand Valley’s Campus Ministry program.
