The Michigan Daily - Monday, March 31, 2003 - 7A CRITICS Continued from Page 1A counselor from the Southgate school district who wished to remain anonymous said minority applicants from his school generally got accepted with lower grades and test scores than white applicants. "I would say they're lower in general, not a lot lower, but lower," said the counselor, whose district includes Gratz's alma mater. The counselor said this year many of the white students he advises have expressed con- cern about their chances for admission into the Univer- sity. "When they found out how people were accepted, they felt it's unfair," he said. "Most feel they cannot get in, especially if they're Caucasian without great grades and test scores." Michigan State freshman Laura Cole said she was rejected from the University while some of her minority friends were accepted despite having lower grades and test scores. Cole said she graduated from Grosse Pointe South High School with a 3.9 GPA and 28 ACT score. Although she believes a racial plus factor is neces- sary in some cases, Cole said the 20 points given by the LSA policy to black, Hispanic and Native American students is too much when compared to the points given to other factors such as test scores, because appli- cants cannot control their race. Nelson said although the University's admissions policies target minorities from poorer and less affluent school districts, "(they're) not doing anyone a favor by accepting them into a school they're not prepared for." Yet because some minorities who receive points attend affluent high schools and do not face the same disadvantages as minority appli- cants from inner-city schools, the University should take minority applicants' socioeconomic status into account when determining who to give points to, Cole said. But white applicants like Nelson and Cole - both of whom had higher GPAs and ACT scores than Gratz - are not the only ones who feel the University's admissions policies place them at a disadvantage. Aarti Soorya, an Indian American who was rejected from the University despite a 3.5 GPA and 25 ACT score, said many Asians believe they face stiffer com- petition when applying to the University because they are overrepresented. "I think just because there are so many Indians at the University of Michigan, I think that was one of the reasons, maybe, why I didn't get in," said Soorya, a sophomore at Kalamazoo College. If the University's goal is to achieve campus diversity, as lawyers representing the University argue, then the LSA admissions policy should not grant a plus factor to some minorities but not oth- ers, Soorya said. SARS Continued from Page 1A who first diagnosed the disease in an American businessman, recently died from the disease after spending 15 days in a Hospital in Bangkok. SARS was nearly unnoticed by the interna- tional community until early February, when reports began to leak out of China through the Internet. The Chi- nese government quickly declared the situation under control. Symptoms include fever, cold chills, muscle and headaches, dry coughs and hypoxia - where body tissues lack suf- ficient amount of oxygen. Doctors found the disease to be contained in respiratory droplets found in mucus and other bodily liq- uids that can stay airborne for nearly three hours, making the disease trans- ferable through close contact with infected people and objects. SARS has a 10-day incubation period. Though it only took 10 days to identi- fy the highly contagious illness, a vac- cine is years away. Current treatment includes isolation in a pressurized room, antibiotic dosages and respirators. On Friday, the virus was isolated by doctors and scientists working with the WHO, which is leading efforts in coor- dinating communication between physi- cians currently treating SARS patients. "So the stepping stones are there for a vaccine, but not much research has start- ed on it," Stohr added. the michigan daily CENTRAL CAMPUS: 5 bdrm. house. $2000.Avail. Sept. 1,2003. (734) 323-3918.
