Greek life was more than jumping jacks and sit ups on the Quad.

​​
"We did everything with our sorority sisters," Grantman recalls of her time with AOPi (Alpha Omicron Pi) at Coe College.  Spring Formal was the social event of the spring; all members of Greek Life would get together and dance. Grantman remembers no girl would go to the dance without a date. If someone in her sorority didn’t have a date, a sister would find a date for her from one of the fraternities.

 

Where is she now? Still with the IRS! Grantman is currently a Senior Special Agent for the IRS Criminal Investigation Division. Though she has risen to a leadership position at the IRS, Grantsman faced challenges when she began. She recalls her early days with the IRS, during the Women's Rights Movement. If she was talking to a male on the phone who did not wish to speak with a female special agent, she had to abide by the request and transfer the call to one of her male counterparts.
