Dear Wolverine Families,
In just a few short weeks, the whirlwind of fall semester will begin, and students will delve into a variety of enriching and formative opportunities—ones that are both academic and beyond the virtual and physical classroom. New friends will be made, new learning unlocked, and new steps taken into their bright and promising futures.
Dear Wolverine Families,
It’s hard to believe we’re already on the cusp of August—your students are just a few short weeks away from the start of the new semester! In Student Life, we’re busy making campus ready and as safe as possible to welcome them for an engaging and rewarding experience, whether they choose to come in person to Ann Arbor, stay home and take classes 100% virtually, or a mixture of the two.
You can stay up-to-date on the latest campus planning efforts for all U-M campuses as well as health and wellness measures, class formats, and specifics on housing and dining, by visiting the Maize & Blueprint website. Check back frequently for the most current information.
Dear Wolverine Families,
As Dr. Kedra Ishop and I wrote to U-M parents and families on Monday, the Michigan experience may look and feel different this year, but it still will be amazing.
In Student Life, we know that an essential aspect of a residential experience is the co-curriculum where students engage meaningfully outside of the classroom. We are committed to students thriving, connecting, practicing skills, and translating their learning outside of the classroom—whether they’re taking advantage of academic, career, and personal counseling, participating in student organizations with our diverse student population or practicing the skills of civic engagement.
On the sixth annual Giving Blueday, donors gave almost 16,000 gifts to the University of Michigan, amounting to a total of $4,242,531. In addition, the number of gifts this year increased by nearly 26 percent. A big Thank You to all of you who gave!
The newness is wearing off and students are settling into the routine of classes, studying and making new friends. What better time to send them a message that you’re thinking of them with an M Gift Package.
