Dear CSP Students,

My time at the University of Michigan is an experience that I will never forget. Honestly, I had never really planned on going to Michigan for school, but I am happy with my decision to do so.

When I first arrived at Michigan, my plans were to major in microbiology with hopes of going on to medical school. I was unfamiliar with class scheduling and how many credits I should take as a freshman, all I knew was that I wanted to finish in four years, so I ended up with 16 credits my first semester of freshman year. As you can imagine, I was overloaded with work and I needed help. Someone told me about the Comprehensive Studies Program and that’s where I was able to get assistance.

My advisor was so much help. He lead me to different tutors to help me with my studies as well as study groups and programs that would be able to help me. CSP offered an array of information that I found very helpful. Even when I decided to change my major to history, my advisor and the CSP office were there to offer information about what I could do with my degree after graduation. Since graduation, I have moved to Atlanta, GA where I am currently teaching in an elementary school. My future plans include entering a graduate school in the fall of 2005 where I plan on getting my Masters in Educational Research and Development. With this degree, I hope to work with researchers and other professionals in the field of education to develop educational programs that will be implemented in the learning process of all students.

Sincerely,

Keosha Miller,
