The reason why I chose the University of Michigan – Flint is because I was a wife and a mother of 3 children, worked full-time, involved on various committees, and did not have time to commute the Ann Arbor to attend classes. I was very fortunate to be able to attend college in my hometown. I am U of M –Flint.
