The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, April 3, 2001 - 9 *DRANKINGS ~2ZContinued from Page 1 --f Affairs Gilbert Omenn said that the " mnedical school has continued to excel and because of that it has held its very high rankings. But Omenn said the medical school's rankings would have been even higher if selectivity had not been incorporated into the rank- ings. Lichter said the quality of resi- dency program directors, deans and senior leaders at the school moved the Medical School up from 12th place last ycar in the U.S. News ran kings. Omenn agreed that the fourth place ranking is an important testa- ment to the "quality of education that students get at the medical school ." Lichter also said the reputation of the medical school, helped by the Life Sciences Initiative, boosted the school into the top 10. "One of the most important things is the reputation that our school has. The fact that we are among the great leaders in the life sciences, that reputation gets around quickly," Lichter said. Omenn that the "spectacular results" are derived from "a long sustained effort." SMOKING, Continued from Page 1. Health view this increase in smoking as a result of tobacco companies' campaigns targeting 18 to 24- year-olds on college campuses. A recent Harvard study found that residence halls seem to contribute to students' nicotine addictions. The Harvard study of 4,495 students from 101 schools found that college students who live in smoke free dorms are 40 percent less likely to become smokers. For many, the problem starts prior to college. A Center for Disease Control report found that 6,000 kids under the age of 18 try a cigarette each day and half that number become daily smokers. In addition, 4.5 million adolescents between ages 12 and 17 smoke cigarettes. "I started smoking because of my best friend's older sister who made us think it was cool when we went out with her to parties in high school" said one LSA. sophomore. She said she now smokes half a pack every day. "I am ,trying to quit, but it is hard because I am hooked. I have tried to quit five times without a program,' she added. University of Michigan officials said they are aware of the addictiveness of nicotine and have set up a tobacco consultation service to help. The program is geared to "extinguishing one behav- ior and replacing it with others and creating coping mechanisms for stress," said Linda Thomas, program associate for UMH Health Promotion Division. "We recommend for those attempting to quit to initially avoid situations where there is smoking, like bars, especially because when drinking alcohol it lowers your inhibitions, making it easier for them to say, oh I can have one cigarette,"' Thomas said. The seemingly encouraging atmosphere of bars and restaurants as well as the associated health risks of second-hand smoke led the city of Marquette to create a ban on smoking in restaurants. This law was challenged in the Michigan Court of Appeals where it was decided that no city in Michigan could put a ban on smoking cigarettes. - Although the plan failed in Marquette, the S Free Air Act bans smoking in New York City resta- rants and city vehicles but allows it in bars Z~d iightclubs. The Smoke Free Air Act in New York is relat"Ly lenient when compared to many California laws such as one instituted in Palo Alto, Calif. In Palo Alto, smoking is prohibited in all public places, service locations, city pool cars and in 50 percent of unenclosed eating establishments. the michigan daily . " RAI- )t'A"CIN(, iENIORkS-".

The First Amend- ment issue may be brought up in terms up restrictions on issue adver- tising and required disclosure from advertisers. Epps said there is no way to know how the court will rule. "There are some real consequences to the bill, but they can be fixed," he said. The legislation would ban so-called soft money, typically five- and six-fig- ure contributions to political parties by unions, corporations and individu- als. Republicans and Democrats com- binied took in nearly 5500 million in such funds ovei- the last two years. It also would ban certainl types of broadcast advcertising~ close to an elec- tion. The provisionl, attacked by McConnell and others as unconstitu- tional, is an attemlpt to stop the flood of "issue ads" by outside groups that skirted currenlt legal restrictions by avoiding the direct advocacy of a can- didate's election or defeat. No date has been set for Hlouse consideration of the issue, but sup- porters have said they hope for a vote later this spring. Lotlgtime critics such as GOP Whip Tom DeLay of Texas have anniounceed plains to try and defeat the bill, anld evenl somle Democratic supporters appear to be having second thoughts. Epps said lie thinks the bill will pass the House. "Ther-e will be a bigz fight in the House. biut all these peo- ple have to be re-elected in a year and a half," hle said. "Thley donl't want to appear against catmpaign finance reform." But Epps said hie's not sure thlat the bill will become law. "What George Bush is going to do is anybody's guess." he said. House Minority Leader Dick Gephardt (D-Mo.), who has support- ed previous versions of the bill, recently told reporters lie favors no change in the contribution limits to candidates and parties, for example. Senate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle expressed similar concerns, but ultimately accepted an increase and played a pivotal role in keepiing support for the measure from eroding. While Watergate prompted the; lzst nmajor overhaul of campaign finance laws, McCain's involvement Ir'the Keating Five scandal of the ,early l 990s - he was not cited for any wrongdoing - helped spark hts initer- est in the issue. A furor over fund-raising practices in President Clinton's 1996 re-elec- tion campaign, including Lincoln Bedroom sleepovers and -W-hi-te House coffees with the presidet tfor high-dollar donors, gave McCain fresh fodder. lHe showed a willingness to clash with his GOP colleagues, often in acerbtc terms, and made the than oil soft motiey into the centerpiece of his bid for last year's Republican presi- dential nomination. He stunned .the party establishment when lie won* 'the leadoff New Hampshire primary, 13 months ago, and later displayed aii ability to attr-act the support of- mil- lions of independent voters. Ie reeturned to the Senate this year, his national standing enhanced and his detertmination to press the legisla- tionl undiminished. -At the same time, Democratic gvains ill the elections provided addi- tionlal inmpetus, and when Sen. Thad Cochran {R-Miss.) a former oppo- nlent, ainnounlced his support'over the Winter, prospects conltinued to imlprove. Debate began two weeks ago after a bit of street theater in which McCain anld Feingol d walked fjrom the Capitol to the headquarters of the Republican and Democratic par- ties. "It's time to end business asus ual," McCain said that day. Republicans greeted the procession with studied silence; Democrats welcomq"him and Feingold with a banner pr Qfess- ing support. pc'I~ pi'ii xiet iin tCIII ake ciliiio Li.iiim c *emmots, 4 to 5 atternmumi/\\ '-(,pmminin -AiimArbcii ITiree cleat kid. lIll 1i' 12 Help xxillh holtrux ilItIiisptatIU IIIi io itites 1 imimst bax-C Ciii!did iii1'siimmlt mantt haxve lun' Sa' { IcxII I i .u ti6-tm-140hId pa> CO0- god9i Moin. 1'Ies".

"We have not always lived up to our ideals as a public university:' Bollinger said public universities across the nation have been open doors for women and minorities such as blacks and Jews. Bollinger said he hoped to dispel myths such as "race no longer matters." "A public university is more commit- ted to access," he said. "Public universi- ties have provided a policy of openness"~ Bollinger said he is proud of the accomplishments of tihe University and through two strategies - legal and pub- lic education - affirmative actioti can be promoted and supported nationwide. "I have made this a central obligation of mine to speak about this nationall,' Bollinger said. "We have a value - eqluality'" he said. "We have many states that are not living up to that ideal:' Bollinger said prior to arriving~ at thle believe." - Harper said most students' take advantage of the opportunity to'.experi- ence diversity on campus. "In my experience, when given a chance, students will move in and out of. groups and environments, she said"." In a series of questions from students about the affirmative action lawsuits, Bollinger defended the admissions poli- cies, saying that in addition lto. race, boosts are given for geography, legacies, test scores, CPA, athletics and ecofiom- ics in order to seek variation and diversi- ty in the student body. "That reflects difference," Bollinger said. "We take students who are ready for the kitnd of education we offer"' Bollinger stressed the commiunity should be a heterogeneous society, not a hiomogenous one. He :4i4,, he envisions the appeals as a landm~rark case which might go as far as' the Supreme Court. "If we lose, we face a major pfob- iem," he said.
