Roosevelt University
Roosevelt University is a coeducational, private university in Chicago, Illinois with a satellite campus in Schaumburg, IL. Founded in 1945, the university is named in honor of both former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt. The university's curriculum is based on principles of social justice. Currently the university enrolls around 7,500 students between its undergraduate and graduate programs and is ranked #88 in the US News and World Report Regional Universities-Midwest category. The current president is Charles R. Middleton; he was inaugurated in 2002. The university was founded in 1945 after the president of Central YMCA College in Chicago, Edward J. Sparling, refused to provide his board with the demographic data of his student body, fearing that it would provide the basis for a quota system to limit the number of African Americans, Jews, immigrants, and women at the school. As a result, Sparling was fired by the board and left, with a number of faculty and students, to start a new college after a vote in favor 62 to 1 (for faculty) and 488 to 2 (with the student body).

March 13, 1988 was the day we moved to America. Although it wasn't my first time in the country, that date was the beginning of my journey through the American school system. Those eleven years filled me with a lifetime of great memories.
