This year was another one for the books. In a year that marked fresh beginnings, the University of Michigan started a new chapter with the inauguration of University President Santa Ono. The new leadership was quickly tested by calls for graduate student employee support and activism addressing sociopolitical issues. The U-M community came together in times of injustice, hardship and tragedy. They embraced one another on the Diag following the mass shooting at Michigan State University. They united in the lobby of the Alexander G. Ruthven Building, demanding University support for Palestinian students. They gathered on the Diag yet again to mourn the Israeli lives lost. They linked arms outside of the President’s House, protesting the University administration’s actions. They spoke out for what they believed in.

The Michigan football team ended 2022 with a devastating loss against TCU at the Fiesta Bowl and let that loss drive the team to its third consecutive College Football Playoff appearance. The group pushed through a myriad of challenges to get there, but even through multiple suspensions of Jim Harbaugh and the sign-stealing scandal, the team beat Ohio State for the third consecutive year, won its third-straight Big Ten Championship and secured the number one ranking for the first time since 1997.

This year saw excellence across all athletics. The women’s tennis team reached great heights, making it to the NCAA quarterfinals. The men’s lacrosse team made history with their first-ever Big Ten Championship victory. Through adversity, all teams found success.

All year, The Michigan Daily’s photographers and reporters recorded the resilience and spirit of the University and Ann Arbor communities, whether that be locally, across the state or even across the country. We shared the evolving narrative of perseverance and unity both on campus and across the city, reflecting on the past year and all that was accomplished.
