"I wanted to be a graphic designer when I started out," reflects Karen Meyers, business manager of Printing Services at Michigan Farm Bureau. Enthralled by a high school graphic arts course, the Grand Rapids, Mich., native enrolled at Central Michigan University, where she majored in industrial supervision and management with a graphics concentration.

Grand Rapids Community College's Printing, Mailing and Graphic Solutions department hosted an open house yesterday to show off its capabilities, including its new MGI Meteor DP60 Pro multi-substrate digital press. More than 20 demos were done for the in-plants, franchisees and commercial printers in attendance at the event, which was co-hosted by Graphco, the MGI dealer that handles sales, service and support for GRCC.
