Significance of Logo: We decided on this name because it is fitting to the fact we all attend “Grand Valley”. Also there are three of us. The logo includes a city like design because we love Grand Rapids and the downtown Grand Valley campus is our favorite! Then of course the letters represent all of our first initials.
Group Photos & Modifications:

We picked this meme because it’s humorous. It is illustrating the meme of Salt Bae the “Turkish Chef” sprinkling seasoning in a theatrical manner. Memes in general are important to our culture because they hold this sense of relatability. So regarding this meme, when we “sprinkle” something we may all think of this.
Research Meme :
Why it is important? This is something that can be relatable which is big in our culture. Memes are important because they can be used as conversation starters or just make you feel connected to the world in a relatable sense.

Research Infographic:
This infographic was surprising to come across. I didn’t realize how much money was donated to the university. Then again we as students do give them a lot. But just seeing the amount of other donations each year that also play a big contribution was astonishing.
