The Mass Transportation Authority has expanded the Downtown/Campus Route #14 to run over 12 hours a day, 10 a.m. to 10:15 p.m. Monday through Thursday. There is no Friday service.

What began as a dream became a reality for the University of Michigan-Flint when 300 students moved into the first residence hall on the Flint campus on August 24.

On hand to mark the historic day and help the incoming freshmen unpack their vehicles was UM-Flint’s new chancellor, Dr. Ruth J. Person.  Her appointment to the position was effective August 18.

University of Michigan-Flint will receive a federal grant of $354,050 to encourage more students from disadvantaged backgrounds to enter and complete health professions training programs.  The announcement of the grant was made by Congressman Dale E. Kildee (D-MI).
