- Muskegon/Grand Rapids/Allendale Footage Part 2. This is a video in color without audio. There are issues with color balance throughout the video, and some clips come from damaged film and are speckly or distorted. It is a compilation of various clips of footage. It begins with footage of the Muskegon County Wastewater Management System, farms, crops, and general landscape shots. There is a portion of the landscape footage that has footage from another video (Russel H. Kirkhof donation) overlaid upside down, so the image is dark and confusing. The majority of the video is from the Festival ’79 in downtown Grand Rapids. There are clips from musical performances from different groups, children painting and playing, shots of the crowd, tents and food cooking, and runners finishing a race. The end of the video is footage of a forest, creek, and a cabin, and more race footage.

- Interview with JaQueshia Allen conducted by Gayle Schaub for the GVSU Libraries' Connected Exhibit, displayed in September 2016. Edited clips of interviews accompanied watercolor portraits of students and an interactive watercolor activity for exhibit visitors. Ja-Queshia is an April graduate now enrolled in the Advanced Standing Master of Social Work program. A first-generation college student from Flint, Michigan, Ja-Queshia decided early on at GVSU to step outside of her comfort zone and get involved on campus. She got a job with TRiO Student Support Services in her freshman year, joined Alpha Kappa Psi, a co-ed business fraternity, and actively sought out events and opportunities to connect with other students. Interested in working in a helping profession, Ja-Queshia took advantage of a service-learning experience in Mississippi, interned with the Grand Rapids Housing Commission, and intends to use her degrees to eventually work in hospice care. She wants to encourage other students to keep moving forward and accomplishing their goals, no matter what they may face, and not let anything stop them from being successful.

- Notes:
- Ms. Le was born in Saigon in 1970 to an American father and Vietnamese mother. Her father had to leave, and her mother struggled to make a living, especially when the communists took over. A program called ODC allowed them to leave Vietnam, go to the Philippines for orientation for 6 months and then move to America. Mastering the English language was a struggle at first, but Ms. Le worked hard and became very successful. She said she is grateful to the ODC program.
