UM: Democracy

A Detroit News editorial praises UM’s Ronald and Eileen Weiser Center of Europe and Eurasia, which aims to study and support countries with emerging democracies. It was established this fall with a $10 million gift from the Weisers, who live in Ann Arbor. “U-M, recently ranked among the top 18 universities in the world, is taking another step with the Weiser Center to cement itself as one of the most important places in the world for scholarly research.” [Source]
