Happy 60th, UM-Dearborn!

60 and maize and blue balloons

Sixty years ago this fall, UM-Dearborn Center, the forerunner of UM-Dearborn, kicked off its first official term. We’ve come a long way since. Back in September 1959, our inaugural class consisted of just 34 students. Today, our diverse student body is more than 9,000 strong — many of whom joined with faculty, staff, alumni and friends to celebrate a special 60th anniversary Homecoming Week. Here are some of our favorite moments from the Sept. 30-Oct. 5 festivities.
