MICHAEL BIRD ’27
Why I want to be an athletic trainer: I always had great athletic trainers who were there to help when I needed, and I would like to do the same for other athletes when they need it. I also like the idea of being part of a team and in a team atmosphere. Why I chose UW-Stevens Point: I came to UWSP to play football and from day 1 it felt like home. I met all of my grad professors in undergrad and had a few like Kelsey and Brock as my trainers while playing football. I always felt like part of the family so I never wanted to go to another grad program. What setting would you like to work in? Working with a college football team. Fun fact: I played football for five years at UWSP.
