The Michigan Daily - Thursday, November 17, 1994 - 3 Marksmen test skills in ROTC 'turkey' shoot By SPENCER DICKINSON Daily Staff Reporter Today is the last day to participate in the Army ROTC Annual Thanks- giving Turkey Shoot. A turkey shoot is a marksmanship competition that is open to all Univer- sity students, faculty and staff. The competition will be held today in the *niversity Rifle Range, behind NUBS Computing site near the bridge to the Hill-area dorms. ROTC cadets are running the event under the guidance of their instructors and University Rifle Coach Don Shanklin. For $1, participants can fire four shots at a target with a .22 caliber Remington competition target rifle. Pro- go to the Wolverine Battalion to ay for special events and functions not covered by the Army or the University. Sgt. Ken Cook, a ROTC instruc- tor, estimates 285 individuals have already participated in the turkey shoot, which started Tuesday. Cook hopes that in addition to raising funds for the cadets, the tur- key shoot will raise campus aware- ness of ROTC, and "get the message out that ROTC is here." Students may compete in teams or as individuals, and prizes like Cottage Inn pizza and Thanksgiving turkeys will be awarded for top scores. Current high scores belong to Yuki Kuniyuki and Mike Carroll, both Army ROTC Cadets, who are tied with 34 of 40 possible points. The University Rifle Range will be open for turkey shooting from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Rifle in hand, Tom Latkovic,, JOE WESTRATE/Daily an LSA first-year student, competes in the annual Thanksgiving Turkey Shoot.

Quality Dining Co. of West Bloomfield will be opening a Bruegger' s Bagel Bakery in the space that used to house Drake's Sandwich Shop, providing competition for The Bagel Factory. Tentatively set to open in Febru- ary, the new restaurant will find itself in a very attractive location. The spot on North University Avenue "links us to two communities, the campus and the city." explained company Vice President Bruce Phillips in The Ann Arbor News. Quality Dining Co. has established three Bruegger's franchises in the Detroit area, one of which is in Wood- land Plaza on Anni Arbor-Saline Road. The location on the northwestern corner of the Diag is likely to be quite profitable for Quality Dining CO. Some students are eagerly awaiting the grand opening. "The idea of a bagel shop other than the Bagel Factory on this campus really excites me," said LSA sopho- -more Tilney Marsh. "I think the lack of competition has caused the Bagel Factory to become complacent in its role as essentially the sole bagel pro- vider for the campus community. "The last sandwich I had there was a poor, mangled, disturbing thing and the service left more than a bit to be desired," Marsh said. "I wholeheart- edly welcome this new bagel estab- lishment." The Bagel Factory does not antici- pate any drop in its business with the opening of the new store. "We've been here for 25 years. We were the first bagel shop in the Ann Arbor area," said Bagel Factory Manager Tricia Kinley. "We're com- fortable. We've become an established fixture in the Ann Arbor community." Kinley added, "We have genera- tions of loyal customers. The fact that we're not a franchise allows us to do things that only independents can do. "Our uniqueness is our big draw and is what will keep people coming back to the Bagel Factory." According to the Ann Arbor News, Paul Tibbals, son of deceased Drake's owners Mildred and Truman Tibbals, and his sister Eleanor ac- cepted the offer of Quality Dining based on the belief that Bruegger's would add to the North University area and respect the Drake's tradi- tion. Bruegger's will house Drake's memorabilia and retain many of the structural charms such as the pressed- tin ceiling and hanging lamps. Store renovations are slated to be- gin soon.

Under a newly proposed set of' requirements for Michigan schools made public yesterday, children would be expected to understand what they learn, not just memorize facts. The curriculum would cover math, science, reading, history, geography, economics, American government and writing. Its goal is students who can use what they've learned and keep learning on their own. "In other words, it is no longer sufficient to simply 'know" mathemati- cal facts: learners must be able to 'un- derstand' the concepts behind them and be able to apply them to problems and situation in the real world." stated a draft of the curriculum. The new curriculum is required by a 1993 state law. Local public schools must begin using the curriculum by the 1997-98 school year. About 100 people yesterday at- tended one of six public hearings on the proposal, which still must be ap- proved by the State Board of Educa- tion and the Legislature's Adminis- trative Rules Committee, The Michigan Association of School Boards initially opposed the idea of a mandated core curriculum, but lobbyist Tom White said that was softened when members saw the final product. "We did agree there ought to be a specific body of knowledge that all students in this state ought to have," he said. The curriculum's general approach allowed local school districts leeway and means "we weren't all going to be on the same page of the same book on a given day," he said. For example, under mathematics, schools must provide a curriculum "which will enable all students to under- stand and use various types of operations (e.g. addition, subtraction, multiplica- tion, division) to solve problems." But White said local districts still worry how they will be-expected to show they meet the curriculum requirements. Some worried that the curriculum sacrifices depth for breadth or stresses students working together rather than being taught directly by a teacher. Kurt Dost of Haslett said he feared the minimums spelled out in the standards would become the maxi- mums. Setting low expectations does not encourage children to do their best, he said. A Howell social studies teacher said the standards cram too much into a few years. John Meredith said American his- tory and government are usually taught to juniors and seniors who are almost ready to vote, rather than first- year students and sophomores for whom issues such as political involve- ment may be remote. Eileen Lienhart of Jackson criti- cized the curriculum for not covering the fine arts and industrial arts. "By leaving out the fine arts and industrial arts from the required core curriculum we run the risk of losing them completely in future budget crunches," she said.
