SCHOLARSHIPS
Continued from Page IA
for application.
He said the extended efforts "arose because we never publi-
cized that this applies to all students, not only those in honors."
He cited numerous examples of the University increasing
efforts to inform students, including placing numerous
posters throughout campus and notifying potential students
through e-mail.
Senior Vice-Provost for Academic Affairs Lester Monts
offered additional examples of the University's extended
efforts.
"We have put together a website and asked the provosts of
all the colleges to inform students," he said. "Interviews take
place in the early fall and there is not a lot of time to get out
the information."
He added that the University has tried to add prestige to
the awards by offering ceremonies to the winners of the
scholarships and printing their names in the honors convo-
cation.
Although he said the efforts would encourage more stu-
dents to apply, Monts also asserted the difficulty of obtain-
ing these scholarships.
"Students need to read about these scholarships to prepare
for the interview on campus, which is quite rigorous," he
said. "Students have to write very thoughtfully and speak
with diligence during the interview."
Nevertheless, he maintained that students who participate
in these programs often move on to prestigious careers.
"If you look at politics or look at business, these scholar-
ships are sometimes the first step toward a successful
career," he said.
Despite the University's extended efforts, many students
said they still had little knowledge about the programs.
"I heard about the scholarships, but I haven't gotten any-
thing from the University about them," LSA sophomore
Maria Arnold said.
LSA senior Ryan Foley said he did receive some informa-
tion but he wasn't really interested.
"I got an e-mail and I went to a meeting last year, but I don't
really want to go to England or anywhere abroad," he said.
Those who are interested in the Rhodes, Marshall or
Mitchell Scholarship can access the University's website at
www.umich.edu/~provost/scholars.html.

TRAVEL
Continued from Page 1A
inquire about cancellation policies, ask about
extra charges and reconfirm arrangements with
the hotel, airline or cruise lines.
Many University students go through student
travel services when planning winter and spring
breaks.
"Students are definitely targeted," Rink said.
"They have lower incomes, and agencies know
they're looking for lower prices."
LSA junior Yuto Ito said he ran into a few
problems when using an agency to help plan
his trip to Daytona Beach last year. He found

the service online by comparing prices and
locations.
"Our hotel ... well it wasn't exactly a hotel, it
was more of a motel," he said. "They made is
sound like it was a nice place - right near the
beach - but you had to walk to the beach for
quite a while."
Business junior Derek Scholansky, said he
used a student agency in high school and did-
n't run into any problems, but he said he prob-
ably shouldn't have put as must trust in it as
he did.
"You never know with those spring break agen-
cies," he said. "Especially being in college, you
get targeted all the time."

AWAREN ESS

tic and Sexual Violence.
Aside from the many speakers and rallies
across the country, SAPAC is placing special
emphasis on a program they are supporting in
Detroit.
The highlighted event is the Creative Expres-
sions Exhibit, which is a compilation of art work
and writings relating to sexual assault on display
at the main branch of the Detroit Public Library,
Wiley said.
Many students appreciated the initiative of

the governor's office in raising sexual assault
awareness.
"By giving a month to sexual assault aware-
ness we push the issue and make it an even
bigger deal," Engineering freshman Mike
Brenes said.
Some students expressed concern at the idea
of having a specific month set aside primarily for
the awareness of sexual assault.
"We should be aware of sexual assault every
month, not just one month out of the year. At
least the governor is recognizing that it is an issue
and the state is making an attempt," LSA fresh-
man Jasmine Singh said.

NUBS
Continued from Page 1A
full capacity, the Information Technology
Department does not have plans to replace
NUBS. Instead, the computers will be moved to
various locations on Central Campus, such as
the basement of the Shapiro Undergraduate
Library.
"There are one or two options we're explor-
ing, but they're really just pie in the sky ideas,"
said Bill Niester, site manager for Information
Technology Central Services. "I don't want to
get people excited about something that might
not happen."
Ruth Addis, executive director of ITCS said
that although there has been a search for a new
lab, space is not available.
"Real estate on central campus is in really short
supply. We've looked everywhere to see if there
are any nooks and crannies where we could have
a site - we even checked in the CCRB. There
just aren't the spots," she said.
While students say they won't mind having to
go to other sites once NUBS is closed, they are

concerned with the difficulty of actually finding a
computer at a different site.
"It's not so much of an inconvenience, it's an
impossibility. If you don't have your own com-
puter, you can't find a computer anywhere any-
more," Engineering senior Emily White said.
NUBS is most popular among students looking
for a less hectic place to study and Engineering
students who need to use Unix computers located
at the site.
"I think the location is good for me because I
live in the Hill area. I like coming here because it
has a different environment than other labs," LSA
freshman Jennifer Lin said.
Addis said ITCS administrators are thinking
about the future needs of students in relation to
what sites will need to provide.
"When computer labs were first built, only
about 25 percent of students had their own com-
puters. That is certainly not true anymore, but the
sites are still full," she said. "What are we going
to need for those sites in the next five years?
We're going to need something more than just
rows and rows of computers just for word pro-
cessing."
