Putting a Laker license plate on your vehicle helps fund LSSU Alumni programs!
Show your Laker pride while driving in your community or on the road with an LSSU plate on your car (van, truck, SUV - all of the above!) and help support your Alumni Association at the same time! A portion of the proceeds from the sales of Michigan affinity license plates comes back to LSSU and helps fund alumni programs and the
Alumni Legacy Award, benefitting children of Laker alumni. Vanity and collector plates are also available.
Get a free Laker license plate by joining the LSSU Alumni Association. Contact your alumni office at alumnirelation@lssu.edu or call 906-635-6219 for more details.

importantly, let's remember the point: be thankful!
