She studied microbiology at Harvard, then apparently (as I recall) did her graduate/post grad work at Michigan because it was tops in the country in epidemiology, her chosen field.
Epidemiology, by the way, is the study of disease (epidemics) and not skin (epidermis) which is a common misperception. Just for everyone's info...
As for the 22,000 per year you and Frank were talking about, if I had gone to Michigan in '92 (almost did), my yearly tuition would have been 23,000, which was why I went to a small school in Virginia, James Madison University, for about 12,000...
Shudder to think how much tuition there for an out-of-stater is now.
Bob, you're exactly right. I wasn't ready for college, but I did manage to make it through just a shade under 3.5. for 5 years. If I had it all to do over, I'd probably have waited a year or two to decide what [b]I[/b] wanted to do. Of course, if I'd done that I wouldn't be about to move into a new house with my future wife, so I'd say things have turned-out okay in the end.
Still, my kids won't be pressured to go to college, although it will certainly be...recommended as an option for their future.
