EMU grad student is Miss Michigan!

That's right boys and girls, the new Miss Michigan, Ashlee Baracy, is a former U-M grad and now an EMU grad student working on her Masters Degree. Baracy, originally from Westland (and following up in Westland's own Mike Modano's steps as he also won Miss Michigan) Ashlee was representing Wayne County in the competition. If Ashlee were to win the Miss America pageant she'd be the second Michigan winner in a row, following up on the success last year of Kirsten Haglund.

Ashlee says one of her biggest goals is to promote the Pink Door Program in Michigan. The Pink Door offers free mammograms to women of all ages, no questions asked.

Well done Ashlee, and you never said "The Iraq"...
