Where are we?
"Located in Southeast Michigan, Ann Arbor is just 45
miles west of Detroit and 35 miles north of the Ohio border. Some very
historic and fast-growing towns surround the city. A pleasant drive along
country roads in any direction will lead to one town after another. Bridgewater,
Chelsea, Dexter, Manchester, Milan and are all within 30 minutes
of the Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti area." (http://www.annarbor.org/frames.asp?section=area/)

networking of the equipment. To learn more about Acuson, check out

Within the huge University, I will be attending the School

My (2 year) master's program concentration is Resource
Policy and Behavior (RPB). I'll be doing the Natural Resource Planning
track probably focusing on communicating and collaborative decision making
in natural resource issues.
I thought I would include some links of some of our favorite sites.
