PHIL POWER: Two candidates show hope for Michigan

Columnist Phil Power offers an endorsement in an opinion piece for Democrat Debbie Dingell who is running for Wayne State University's Board of Governors. Power says she is an "inspiring example of the kinds of public spirited people who go out of their way to help manage our great universities." Dingell commented about her decision to run and the type of management style she employs. "I want to keep Wayne State affordable and accessible to the kinds of people who want and deserve to go to college. As a member of the board, I certainly don't want to micromanage the daily business of the university. I think I can be someone to help out, to be a resource to the president, to be a cheerleader, to help make sure the university reaches its potential."
