NEVER BE SATISFIED

With the status quo, that is.

Helpless

If that’s how you feel about November 8th, there’s always the Queen.

Ham It Upppp

HISTORY HAS ITS EYES ON US

In a thoughtful post for the LSA Young Alumni Tumblr, 2009 grad Jenny Howard muses about the link between two major theatrical phenomena gripping the nation this year: Hamilton and the presidential election. (Speaking of which, ten points if you can catch all the Ham references in this newsletter.)

RAISE A GLASS TO FREEDOM

Future U-M students might be able to order a ride to class from a driverless, Uber-ish campus transit system—and I’m like, back in my day we had to walk a mile in a blizzard.

ONE LAST TIME

You’re hearing from me one last time, y’all. Next week, a new name will be attached to this newsletter: 2016 grad Amanda Harvey is teaching me how to say goodbye to sending you your weekly updates from LSA. Thank you all for a fantastic year and a half—and welcome, Amanda! 💙 💛 💙 💛
