A Conversation with the Dean
“The amazing and wonderful thing about the President’s Challenge is that it puts a spotlight on assisting graduate students as one of the key priorities in the University and sends an important message to Rackham donors that the contributions they make reflect the high priority the university places on graduate education.”

Edward Okeke
“…there weren't any graduate programs in Nigeria that offered the sort of depth I wanted. I finally decided to come to the U.S. Michigan was ranked number one in Health Management and Policy, and so I applied to Michigan.”

Vivian Fell Sangunett
“…providing high-quality training for future teachers is pretty high on my priority list, because the most important person is the teacher. I want to make sure those people are the best, and that’s what Michigan is all about, the leaders and the best.”

Mentoring Matters
We all remember our mentors, a boss or a teacher or just an older person in the neighborhood who took us under his or her wing and showed us the ropes. Making progress without them is difficult, if not impossible. Whom do I call? Where can I find this?

Kristina Lemmer
“My dad always liked space stuff, so when I was a kid he took me to the Kennedy Space Center a couple of times. I was just hooked after that.”

Frank Beaver
“I received a Rackham Prize fellowship which allowed me to write full-time and finish up in 1970. As a graduate student, it made a huge difference in my life. That’s why I’m interested in continuing to support the Rackham graduate program as long as I can.”
