University of Michigan Football History
Thursday, September 23, at 7 pm, Brecon Room. Where did the Wolverines play football before Michigan Stadium was built? Why does the Stadium capacity (109,901) end with a “1”?

The answers to these questions can be found at the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library which houses the university’s athletic archives.
