I also have a brother and sister (both born in Ann Arbor as well and my Father’s Children from a previous marriage) that also went to Michigan. My sister got her Nursing degree from Michigan and my brother got a Master's at Michigan (after he got himself right with his BS at MSU). I have been considering for years attending Michigan for a graduate degree, but life happens and going away to Michigan would be unlikely at this point.

I graduated from the same school my Mom taught at for 30 years after leaving Michigan for her first and only job after she received her PhD. You will not like me again, because I attended Western Illinois. I cannot stand the Penguins either.

Western Illinois: AAAAGGGGHHHH!! At least we both went to schools in one of the best Div. I-AA football conferences in the county.

MCJB doesn't understand the relationship between Buckeye and Wolverine fans. We really need each other, just like Penguins and Leatherneck fans need each other.

And even though OSU has The Best Damn Band in the Land, I always had a thing for the Purdue Golden Girl.

Have a good one.
