Students -- A Study in Commitment

Michigan Engineering students spend most of their time hitting the books, sweating through tests, working on teams or taking part in any number of learning activities that the College makes available to them. And they're busy interacting with each other, learning life's lessons about friendship, trust, honor and commitment. Yet, somehow in the midst of all that activity, many of them find the time, energy and heart to reach out and help people who can't help themselves. They're a special breed of young men and women.
