I still remember watching Michelle Kwan skate in the Olympics. It wasn't that long ago right? She's hanging up the skates temporarily and coming to Boston to go back to school.
The nine-time U.S. champion announced Friday she will not return to competitive skating in hopes of making the Vancouver Olympics. Instead, she will begin classes for a master's degree in international affairs at Tufts University. Kwan, who recently graduated from the University of Denver, has already made several trips as a public diplomacy envoy for the State Department.
According to the article she didn't announce that she's retiring, just that she won't be participating in the upcoming Vancouver Olympics.
That being said, Welcome to Boston, Miss Kwan!
