From the beauty of the views in the quad to the hushed calm of the law school to the chaos of south (athletic) campus during a sporting event and you have everything you could want in a college town. Highlights to visit on campus include: - The natural history museum - The grad library reading room - The law library reading room - The "Big House" - Listen to the carillon outside of Rackham school or grad studies - catch a performance at Hill Auditorium or the Power Center for performing arts. - A stroll through the Arboretum (The Arb). So much to do. GO BLUE!

One of the most beautiful churches in Ann Arbor. if you happen to be roman catholic (or even if you're not, still welcome) and want to attend mass, catch the full choir performance it is well worth the effort. Visiting in summer in late afternoon when the sun is coming through the magnificent stained glass windows is truly amazing.

This skylight-covered mini-mall is a fixture of State Street where it runs by the University of Michigan campus. Home of a number of specialty shops (including a place that fixed what we thought was a hopelessly damaged piece of art) and a superb coffee shop with high quality beans that lets you select your one-cup brewing method and choice of those beans (and a helpful staff who made some excellent suggestions to me), this is a place where it is dangerous to browse if you are not intending to buy. You will likely find something you cannot live without.
