The Crown Prince and Princess of Denmark visited the Grand View campus Tuesday, March 24.  When they arrived, they were greeted by the GV campus community, alumni and area Danes.  Local and international media covered the historic event.

The Prince and Princess toured the Humphrey Center, stopping in the Rodholm Room to be greeted by distinguished Danish alumni.  They made their way to the Rasmussen Center where they met with Denmark native and GV student Jeppe Ritz, who presented the Prince with a one-of-a-kind soccer jersey.  After a tour of the Rasmussen Center, the Prince addressed the crowd on the second floor in the student lounge area.
