Taking Flight
When James Smith was hired as president of Eastern Michigan University last summer, he told Eastern Magazine, “No one appreciates a president who sits in her or his office.” True to his word, President Smith has been highly visible on campus. Last week, his exploration even took him thousands of feet above campus in a Cessna Skyhawk as he and Mohamad Qatu, dean of the College of Technology, visited students and instructors in Eastern’s aviation program—a day that included a plane flight to Jackson and back.
The following story and video show some of the highlights of the day.
