Anchor Up

The Anchor Up hand sign is a tradition that began in the student section at Laker football and basketball games and has caught on everywhere.

Beyond the sign that is created with two fingers and a thumb, it's a symbol of the GVSU spirit. We refuse to stay in place with the anchor in the ground. As Lakers, we will Anchor Up and move forward when others go back to shore.

Show your spirit and be True Blue every Friday. GVSU's offical colors are blue, black, and white. True Blue is not intended to promote any specific department, but to unify faculty, staff, students, alumni, and fans to show their spirit for Grand Valley State in the community.

There's a reason it says "Wear our colors", because we all play a role in making GVSU what it is. This is OUR school and as Lakers we have pride.
