4 MEDSTART
Continued from Page 1A
"People leave more aware of the issues that
impact children today. I hope they leave with hope
for the future as well," Kwak said. "Sometimes
people forget there are children who need sonic
special help, and then those people go away with a
greater understanding of what needs to be done to
help these children."
Alison Gehle, a second-year Medical student, said
she feels the speakers play an important role in inspir-
ing participants.
I hope that people will be inspired to go out and
change things and say, I really liked what this per-
son said and I'm really going to go out and help in
this area,"' Gehle said. "I hope they'll leave here and
change something that will change the life of a

child."
Student organizer Bandana Chadda, a graduate
student in the School of Public Health, said the con-
ference was important because it adds an extra ele-
ment of reality to the technical aspects of medical
school study.
"In medical school you talk about disease and the
disease process very scientifically. We also need to
be concerned with the other side of it, how it affects
the child and the family," Chadda said.
"This tries to bring in the part that people forget
about in school, and remind them of what kids are
going through these days," he added.
For Social Work graduate student Claire Sebast-
ian, the program was a way to address children who
are being overlooked by society.
"There are a lot of children falling through the
cracks. We're here talking about how to improve

their health and their life," Sebastian said.
Public Health graduate student Susan Marsiglia
said she thought the conference covered a wide
range of issues and brought people closer to chil-
dren's issues.
"I think it's important that students and profes-
sionals from different disciplines come together like
this," she said, "because everyone is facing the same
problems. By bringing all these perspectives together
we'll be better able to help."
Medstart was started in 1991 by health science
students who felt there should be more informa-
tion in their curriculum regarding the people
affected.
In addition to the conference, Medstart coor-
dinates medical fairs, pairs students with hospi-
tal ized children and pregnant mothers, and
provides communities with health education.

DEBATE
Continued from Page 1A
introduce himself afver the other candi-
dates made their opening statements,
then to attempt to inform the public
about his situation after candidates fin-
ished answering the first question.
"Democracy is something I take seri-
ously," Nebulon said. "For democracy to
work, people have to be informed. This
is a case of democracy being in danger
This goes beyond my party and threat-
ens every political party in the election."
Nebulon's speech was not recorded
on audio and the cameras were focused
on LSA senior Tom Aronson, the mod-
erator for the debate when Nebulon was
talking. The audio was brought down
any time a candidate went over their
time limit, which ranged from two to
three minutes.
"lie never had a mike in the first
place, but it's a public forum and we're
not going to physically remove some-
one, Salmonowicz said. "We knew
Tom could handle any situation that
would arise."
"I was fine with giving him a couple

ofminutes' Aronson said.
Presidentiai candidates spoke first
about their platforms and visions for
MSA. Vice-presidential candidate',
spoke next, followed by closing state-
ments from the presidential andi
dates.

CONFERENCE

School of Architecture and Urban
Planning, among others.
"We found all kinds of enthusiasm
and support from the community,
Konkle said. "When they finally chose
'us, they said they were impressed with
the various level of support Ann Arbor
received."
The meetings are set to continue
the ideas which originated at the
1992 Earth Summit, held in Rio de
Janeiro. It was at this conference that
the Agenda 21 environmental act
called for local governments to
undertake local environmental initia-

Allison Quaid, director of the local
Agenda 21 project for the United States,
said there were several reasons Ann
Arbor was chosen over the other appli-
cants. Quaid cited the environmental
record of Ann Arbor, the community-
wide initiatives and the support from the
University.
"It's great to have such a widespread
interest," Quaid said. "They were really
enthusiastic and it is wonderful to work
with a city that is equally as enthusiastic
as we are.
Quaid added that Ann Arbor is an
example of progress since the original
ideas of local sustainability were first
developed.
"National, state, and local govern-
ments can contribute to creating a

more sustainable community."
Hieftje said city officials are very
excited about the meetings, and attrib-
utes the choice of Ann Arbor to its
numerous programs and collaborations
with various entities.
"We are very progressive in the
way of environmental programs --
we are energy conscious, and very
pro-active when it comes to finding
alternate fuels," Hleiftje said. "Our
collaboration with the University of
Michigan has also worked greatly. All
these things come together to make us
a shining community."
The meetings will be attended by
city officials from throughout the
country, although the keynote
speaker has not been formally

announced.
Ann Arbor officials will also be on
hand for the liscussions, which Konkle
said exemplifies the city's strong com-
mitment to the environment.
"Ann Arbor has been different since
the beginning," Konkle said. "The city
is an example that can go on as time
goes on and others can see the wisdom
of the things we do."
Konkle said the Business school
has donated its facilities for the
meeting and many corporations are
offering to help. He added that Ford
Motor Company promised their new
small, electric "think-mobiles" for
trial and transportation use and other
companies are considering sponsor-
ship.

"Unlike other parties which are
rumored to have received a substantial
amount of outside aid, the University
Democratic Party chose not to seek out-
side funding, including the Democratic

said vice-presidential candidate Alicia
Johnson.
Along with the traditional costs of
copying and chalk, the U-Dems passed

The "Brown Out" of 1999, in which
minorities boycotted TV because of the
low number of minority characters -
only 9 percent were black - was also
discussed. In the 2000 season, 20 per-
cent of the characters were black. The
increase of black characters caused a
decrease in white female characters.
