ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Mary Sue Coleman has spoken to graduates for the last time as president at the University of Michigan.
Coleman got a standing ovation from graduates Saturday at Michigan Stadium. She says they're off to pursue their first job or an advanced degree while she is ending 45 years in high education.
Coleman leaves the Ann Arbor campus this summer after 12 years. She mentioned students who have inspired her, including football player Denard Robinson and Chris Armstrong, an openly gay student government president.
Coleman says her time at Michigan has been the most fulfilling of her career.
