The Michigan Daily - Friday, October 11, 2002 - 7A BRATER Continued from Page 1A tax to ensure that trucks, which she said greatly contribute to wearing down Michigan's roads, pay an amount of tax proportional to that paid by automobile drivers. Brater said sev- eral areas the restructured budg- et should focus on are education, mental health,s environmentalv policies and investing in the economy. She said her pri- Brater ority in terms of education is providing funds for K-12 education, to reduce class size, train teachers and institute earlier childhood education and adult education programs. But she added that Michigan politicians must stop bickering over which public universities receive the most higher education funding. "We need to stop arguing over who's going to get a bigger piece of the pie and look at how to make the pie bigger," she said. One solution Brater mentioned was cutting back on correctional institution funding, which she said constitutes as much of the state budget as higher edu- cation funding. Brater said the correc- tional funds are too high because many people institutionalized in Michigan prisons are either substance abusers or are mentally ill. One of Brater's goals is to return imprisoned mental health patients to proper facilities, but she said she is con- cerned that Gov. John Engler shut down 15 of 21 hospitals. "The dollars did not follow people on to the streets," she said. Among Brater's other priorities are economic and environmentalpolicies. Building southeast Michigan into a tech- nology corridor and investing in urban areas are two of her ideas to boost Michi- gan's economy, Brater said, adding that workers' rights and collective bargaining must not be abandoned in the process. Brater's environmental ideas include protecting Michigan's farm land, improving public transportation to limit traffic problems and urban sprawl and preventing Great Lakes water diversion and slant oil drilling under the lakes. She added that environmental standards need to be restored to deal with pollu- tion and harmful aquatic organisms originating in Canada. Brater said she is the only state Senate candidate who is completely pro-choice. Brater and Darr are running for a seat in the state Senate vacated by term-lim- ited Democratic Sen. Alma Wheeler Smith. So-and-so many third party can- didates are also running. ISRAEL Continued from Page 1A groups that seek her destruction, and Jews are under attack even here." University Regent Laurence Deitch (D-Bingham Farms) also spoke at the event regarding the divestment conference. "This is a University where speech, no matter how objectionable, is pro- tected. This is a place where we encourage civil debate,"he said. "I say to Jewish students in the audi- ence that you will make a mistake if you keep this to yourselves and do not reach out," he said. "This University community is filled with men and women of all faiths and races who will stand up against bigotry and intolerance if you give them a logi- cal and morally compelling reason to do so. You all have the power to do that. One by one, nothing is greater than the power of one individual determined to do the right thing." Afternoon classes at the Jewish Academy of Metropolitan Detroit were canceled so that all 115 students could attend the rally. Michigan State Uni- versity students were also present in the crowd. The event's keynote speaker, polit- ical science Prof. Raymond Tanter, compared America's fight against terrorism to Israel's struggle with ter- ror. "I have many Arab students, many Muslim students in general, and many Israelis and many Jewish students. I'svery important that we come together in a civil way as we've done today and not hate the other side, but to keep a dialogue open with the other side. "One of the problems is that the military capabilities that America has - which are second to none in the world - are largely irrelevant to deterring terrorists," Tanter said. "So it is also true that the great military capacity of the Israeli defense forces cannot defer terrorists. So what do you do? You go after the terrorist organizations. And what do you do to the leaders? You destroy them. You kill them." Regarding the war on Iraq, Tanter said it was "an antidote" and that there would be no backlash. "Arab people won't go crazy, Muslim people won't go crazy. They'll roll over because they hate Saddam Hussein." Following Tanter's speech, LSA sen- ior Kirsten Quinzi said she was both- ered by his statements. "It seems so obvious that people should just get together and talk about these things and not kill each other. But it's funny, there's no group that advocates getting together and looking for peaceful resolutions." Quinzi said she and Engineering senior Yair Ghitza are interested in pro- moting inter-group dialogue. Quinzi said student groups on this campus only represent two extreme views of the conflict, and there is no group that brings the two together. IRAQ Continued from Page 1A does that,' Gephardt said. The Senate was working on the same resolution, voting 75-25 to choke off delaying tactics and move toward a final vote - expected late Thursday. It voted down a series of efforts to weaken or block the resolution, as did the House. Senate leaders of both parties predicted easy passage. The administration got a big boost when Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle announced he was putting aside his misgivings to support the president. "I believe it is important for Amer- ica to speak with one voice," said Daschle (D-S.D.). "It is neither a Democratic resolution nor a Republi- can resolution. It is now a statement of American resolve and values." LAWSUIT Continued from Page 1A "We're worried, and we're not just worried about this weekend. We're wor- ried about what happens afterward." Schlussel said the lawsuit was not filed until Tuesday, four days before the conference was to begin, because event organizers only recently released a list of its speakers. The effort she made to work with University officials, before resort- ing to a lawsuit, also held up the legal attack, she said. SPIRIT Continued from Page 1A ington on Saturday, Aug. 31. "Believe in this team. Look at the game quarter by quarter, minute by minute," Cavanaugh said. "The spirit we're trying to get out is contagious." This weekend marks the first Fall study break in the University's history, and many students will not be attend- ing the game because they can take a trip home or a vaca- tion during the four-day weekend ahead. Combating this possible loss of fan support and spirit, the marching band, cheerleaders and dance team will practice together for the first time in preparation for tomorrow's game. "The students' getting involved and cheering will get others involved as well as the other people who are just buying tickets to go to the game," he said. One of the complaints found in Cavanaugh's letter con- cerns the fan's booing heard during recent games. "Remember that everyone out there is a student here. At Michigan we don't boo our fellow students. I've talked with students who say 'we're not booing a play- er but a play,' and I respond that that's not how it's taken," he said. Other members of the marching band consider the Michigan fan's noise to be a fraction of the noise at other schools. "The fans need to get up," said Rob Farley, a Music sophomore and tuba player.,Notre Dame "had 30,000 fewer fans and were eight times louder than us. If the rest of the fans can get up the way we can, then we will be where we want to." Students who consider themselves active fans agree with Cavanaugh's accusations about the student cheering problem, but they also believe that all the other sections are too quiet as well. "I've heard our crowd been called a 'symphony crowd' - we all stand up, clap and sit down," LSA junior Peter Gudritz said. "If you watch Miami's games, or Florida's games or Tennessee's, their fans are all going nuts." Saying that the student section support is "decent," Gudritz attributed the lack of cheering and fan support as a problem in "the rest of the stadium." Shant Norsigian, an LSA junior, said that the fan sup- port problem lies in the lacking alumni support. " ... You see the alumni, and they are sitting down and watching the game with a monocle," Norsigian said. Students attending the first 3:30 p.m. game of the sea- son will have an extra amount of time to prepare for the game by grilling or barbequing. The game against Penn State will mark the sixth game for the Wolverines, who are 4-1 this season. the michigan daily MALES NEEDED FOR RESEARCH STUDIES: The Pfizer Research Clinic in Ann Arbor is seeking healthy males, ages 18-55, for participation in upcoming medication re- search studies.
