"Going to school and living out here has been quite the experience (I've never lived outside Michigan) and I owe it all to EMU for prepping me with the knowledge I needed to not be behind when starting graduate school. Despite the heavy class load I have been getting a healthy dose of skiing and hiking and have made a number of new friends. Go EMU!"

Hannah Saloiye
"I began my studies in music, primarily the flute, I loved my major. It was really fun becoming a better musician and living in such a creative atmosphere. On the other hand, I missed mathematics and logic problems. I enjoyed working with the music software for music theory and composition, so I picked up an introduction to programming course. I realized that although I loved music, programming provided a different kind of creativity. Fortunately, Eastern Michigan allowed me to major in both of these subjects. I had several great professors that took an interest in my education and goals, which helped me feel like I was a part of both of my departments."
Hannah began her professional career in March 2015 as part of the prestigious Ford IT College Graduate Program.

"I haven't been able to forget my Eastern roots, though. To this day, I still maintain SolarYpsi.org and the amount of material covered by the Google interviews would have been insurmountable without the excellent education offered all the way back in South East Michigan. I use many of the things I learned at least on a weekly basis, if not daily. And of course, as always, Bleed Green!"
