Meet Fellow APA Amy Fowler
What is your job title?
Student Events and Activities Coordinator
How long have you been at MSU?
Eleven years
Have you been a member of the APA the whole time?
Nine years
What department do you work in, and can you tell me a little bit about what you do?
I work for the College of Human Medicine both out of Grand Rapids and the main MSU campus. I help plan all the major events that the college participates in: Commencement, Awards Banquet, White Coat Ceremony, Medicine Ball, AOA Banquet, and Prematriculation. Â I also assist the Student Council and handle all the room requests for the Office of Student Affairs.
What brought you to your job at MSU?
The travel agency that I worked at for 17 years closed. My mom raised my sister and I to be avid Spartan fans and it just seemed like a fun place to work.
What do you love about working at MSU?
I love working with the Office of Student Affairs team. Everyone enjoys the energy from the students.
What do you like to do when you are not at work?
When I am not at work, I am hanging out with my husband, Dave, and three children: Maria, Christopher and Morgan. I love being outdoors and working in my garden.
