Letter to the Editor: Are you appalled by the continuing increases in the cost of higher education? I am - that is why I am running for University of Michigan Regent! Campaigning across Michigan, I have listened to families who face the severe financial challenges of paying college tuition.
I have a BSE and MBA from Michigan. I led Ford Motor Company's U of M engineering recruitment, became Ford/University of Michigan Program Development Office Director, and presently serve on two Michigan boards - Engineering & Business. With my experience and passion for U of M I am ready to cut wasteful spending, reduce overall expenditures, and generate new revenue sources. I am committed to fighting for affordable, quality University education! On November 4th I am asking our citizens to give me, John LaFond, the opportunity to serve Michigan taxpayers! Very sincerely, John LaFond |
