Congrats to a Justin Bullock, a Detroit Renaissance student and valedictorian, on accepting a full scholarship to MIT. I know Justin, and he is a great young man.

Detroit -- For someone who has no problem zipping through novels and textbooks, cruising around the track doesn't seem like such a stretch.
Justin Bullock is known for both. Today, he will run the half-mile, mile and two miles in the Detroit Public School League track and fieldchampionship.
On most other days, he's leading the pack in the classroom.
And he has the numbers to prove it:
• A 4.0 grade-point average;
• All A's in four years at Detroit Renaissance. In fact, the last B he received was in the seventh grade in geography. The only other B he recalls receiving was in handwriting. [["It's still pretty bad.")
• He scored a 33 on the ACT as a junior after getting a 29 as a freshman.
• And, he has scholarships totaling nearly $2 million.
