A DPS Grad's Labor Of Love Honors Past, Present Schools

February 13, 2013



Mike Williams, Mumford HS alumnus

Thousands of Detroit Public School graduates have lent their names to a unique photo display. Starting in April, T-shirts bearing images of about three dozen past and present schools will begin a traveling tour of the city. Each shirt will be signed by alumni of those schools. Mumford High School grad Mike Williams tells WDET's Pat Batcheller he started the effort after watching his alma mater being torn down last summer. Click on the audio link above to hear the conversation.
