Gold Vibrations (GV) is based out of Rochester Hills, Mich. They are proud students of Oakland University, how elf the Golden Grizzlies. In GV, new members are required to go under deep sleep, in which they become physically infused with the DNA of an actual Grizzly bear. That is why GV continually protests for longer winter breaks, as the unique nature of their physical composition requires them to hibernate. They request no flash photography or sudden movements, as the new GV members are still adjusting to this human-bear lifestyle.
