University of Michigan students Alexis Ghorai describes his youth, experience in the Navy, and life at the University of Michigan
Alexis Ghorai describes his youth in Lansing, Michigan, finding high school less than challenging, but being motivated and succeeding at the University of Michigan. He also talks about his relationship with his parents, his decision to join the Navy when his parents divorced, and the conflict he feels between his liberal leanings and doing his duty as ordered. He speculates about having a family while in the Navy and then concludes by talking about his life at college, concentrating on his studies, his social life and the stresses between being a kid and being a responsible student.
