Who is Ms. Gavin? Her Twitter bio says she's a "Sci/med writer & media relations pro @UMHealthSystem & @UM_IHPI." Unless this is some elaborate parody account for a science/medical writer/media relations pro, I don't see a reason to doubt this report.
Dave Brandon, Michigan's former athletic director and #brand aficionado, will be ill when he sees this one.
