Students for Life gather in
the Diag to protest abortion
U Vigil shows opposition to
1973 Roe v. Wade ruling
allowing the right to choose
By Kristen Beaumont
,Daily Staff Reporter
1 Students gathered in the Diag last night
for a silent candlelight vigil to show their
opposition to the upcoming anniversary
of the historic Roe v. Wade decision of
1973.
The vigil was organized by Students
for Life as a protest against abortion and
a celebration of life, Students for Life
President Andrew Shirvell said.
"We're here to remember the 35 to 40
}million babies that have been aborted
since 1973," he said. "This is just a pure
Z silent witness to gain a sense that there
has been a huge loss in our generation
because we have grown up with Roe v.
Wade and because we have lost potential
friends to abortion."
Shirvell, an LSA junior, said the vigil
has been held for the past four years but
that this year saw the best turnout so far,
with almost 45 students participating.
Lia Santoro, vice president of Students
for Life and an Engineering senior, said,
"I'm just glad that I'm not alone to
remember the 40 million babies that have
died since Roe v. Wade. I think it would
be a shame if these lives went unno-
ticed."
Shirvell stressed that the students were
not gathered for political reasons.
"We are not all about radical tactics,"
he said. "All human life is valuable."
Other students shared the sentiments of
Shirvell and Santoro.
"We're just out here to show our sup-
port for the dignity of the unborn. It's a
beautiful way to show our silent protest,"
said Erin Robichaud, an LSA junior and
three-year member of Students for Life.
Students from other schools also took
part in the vigil.
"One-third of our generation has been
killed by abortion. These people would
have been our roommates, our friends,
our wives and our husbands," said Matt
Bowman, a student at the Ave Maria
School of Law. "We are here to commit
ourselves to see that the next generation
makes it out of the womb and has a
chance to live and to grow."
Students at the rally stressed they were
simply celebrating the rights of the
unborn.
"I think the vigil speaks for itself.
There's nothing political about it. There
is a little more to it than conservative
versus liberal," said Rob Shereda, an
LSA junior.

e-mail to the Dearborn campus.
Little said Lawson stimulated loyal-

"One of the things I really appre-

She was intense. She cared about
the issues. She was able to express
her thoughts with great clarity," he
said.

"would pose serious danger for the

On the
side, the two
prospective

are Lt. Gov.

retary of State
C a n d i c e

press secre-
tary, and the &
office is "one ;
of the options,
clearly."
The secre-
tary of state's
office was
equally vague.
Miller spokes-
woman Liz
Boyd said a
run for gover-
nor has not
been ruled out. Miller "has formed
a campaign committee, but has not
decided what office she is running
for," Boyd said. Due to term limits,
Miller is unable to seek another
term as secretary of state.
Both offices said decisions regard-
ing the race can be expected later this
year.
A wildcard candidate is Senate
Majority Leader Dan DeGrow (R-
Port Iluron), who, like the other
two Republicans mentioned as
potential candidates, is giving
"serious thought" to running for a
statewide office, said Aaron
Keesler, DeGrow's press secretaf-y.

This is a
strategy which
worked for
Republ i ajn
Gov. George Romney in 1969,
when he resigned in order to give
Lt. Gov. William Milliken a boost
in his gubernatorial bid.
"Many people believe he (Milliken)
never would have won if that did not
happen," Ballenger said.
