Gerald Ford (1913-2006), our 38th President. Ford attended the University of Michigan, where he was a star football player. The team won national titles in both 1932 and 1933. After graduation, he turned down offers to play with both the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers. Instead, he took a coaching job at Yale University in 1935 because he also wanted to attend law school. He left after six seasons with a law degree in hand.
