Future dentist learns the drill

Kyle Blau, a freshman in biology and pre-dental studies at Lake Superior State University, was up to his eyeteeth in personal belongings yesterday as he moved a carload of stuff into residence.

Thursday was Move-In Day for new students at Brady and Osborn Residence Halls.

In what's become an LSSU tradition, Blau and several hundred other freshman got help moving from staff and faculty.

Kyle is the son of Lisa and Mark Blau of Rapid River, Michigan.
