April 2018
"CONGRATULATIONS—You're In!"
I remember getting an email from the Admissions Office with that subject line back in December of my Senior year (of high school, that is). I remember feeling ecstatic—in a kind of elated trance from the promising future that awaited me. I remember thinking that that future would involve me partaking in some kind of biological research: I could clearly picture myself pipetting some kind of cloudy liquid onto an agar plate.

To my Freshman Self,
In the blink of eye, four years have come and gone, and you are now a graduating senior at the University of Michigan. Four years ago, it felt like you had all the time in the world to figure everything out. Those years have passed, and here you are, ready to face the real world as a grown up. You took every opportunity that college had to offer and conquered them. But along the way, you started to lose yourself in the chaos and stress of it all. Here are some things that I wish you had known and understood from day one.
March 2018
March is Women’s History Month and is meant to honor women and their past and present contributions to the world. The celebration first began in 1981 when Congress proclaimed the week of March 7th to be Women’s History Week. Petitioning by the National Women’s History Project in 1987 encouraged Congress to designate the entire month of March each year to officially become Women’s History Month. If you want to learn more, check out the video and photo archives on the Women’s History Month website.
Have you ever wondered about the tower of the Michigan Union? Or the flags draping the halls of Pierpont Commons? Maybe just where to grab a burrito?
