co-educational public university located in Ypsilanti, Michigan.
The university is governed by an eight-member Board of Regents,
who are appointed by the Governor of Michigan for eight-year
terms. The school belongs to the Mid-American Conference and
was re-accredited by the North Central Association in 2001.
Currently, EMU comprises five colleges: Arts & Sciences,
Business, Education, Health & Human Services, Technology

Eastern Eagle, after the traditional name "Hurons"
was deemed unsuitable.
