Campus Life

  1. Being black at Michigan

  3. Mark Schlissel named U-M president

    Mark S. Schlissel, MD/PhD, provost of Brown University, will succeed Mary Sue Coleman July 1. President Coleman is retiring after 12 years leading U-M.

  4. Gone clubbing

    From fly fishing and physics to world peace and Quidditch, student clubs enrich campus life. Clearly that’s what these members of the 1890s’ Smokers’ Club would have told you.

  7. A2 on the (high) rise

    Things are looking up in Ann Arbor—way up. A recent building boom is reshaping the city skyline, hastening a vertical shift in perspective.

  9. Towering resonance
