Ford, the 38th president of the United States, attended the University from 1931 to 1935. During Ford's tenure, the team twice won the National Cham- pionship, and he was named Most Valuable Player, among other honors. He graduated with degrees in economics and political science, and later attended Yale Law School. The Ford School of Public Policy's future location will be on the northeast corner of State and Hill Streets, and will house five research centers, as well as classrooms and offices. It will consolidate the Ford School, which is currently spread over three loca- tions, and also possibly allow for the creation of an undergraduate policy program. Ford School Dean Rebecca Blank called the promi- nent location "a clear indicator of the importance the University has placed on public policy." Prof. Edie Goldenberg, who teaches political science and public policy at the Ford School, considered the placement symbolic. "It's going to be the entrance to the cam- pus, the gateway from the south of the school," Gold- enberg said. Founded in 1914 and originally named the Institute of Public Administration, the current Ford School went through several name changes before being named for the former president in 1999. Although building designs were approved in June, the starting date for construction has yet to be set, as funding for the $32 million project is still under way.

PANEL Continued from Page 1 of those decisions (the president) would be making every day," said Roger Porter, former executive secretary of the president's economic policy board during the Ford adminis- tration. He said he has participated in "well excess of 1,000 meetings" with numerous presidents. "The successful decision makers are the ones who have a set of principles that are imbedded in terms of the long term view," Porter said, referring to presidents who make deci- sions based on short-term political gains. Also on the panel was Ann Lewis, director of communi- cations for President Bill Clinton. Lewis mainly talked about the role of the White House staff in determining policy. "Preparing information for the president of the United States ... is the single most important task of the White House staff," Lewis said. Lewis said part of forming strong policy is getting outside opinions as well as listening to advisers. Clinton was a good policy maker because he had a "personal curiosity and hunger for information," Lewis said.

Just kickin' it ---------- " Webber asked to pay Ufor damages WEBBER Continued from Page 1 Webber's case, said his attorney, Steven Fishman. "If the University really wants a public accounting of the money expended because of Chris Webber, as opposed to the money generated because of Chris Webber (while he played at Michigan), I'd love to see the bottom line on that balance sheet,"'Fishman told The Detroit News. Edmunds on Tuesday postponed Web- ber's sentencing for two years while he devotes 300 hours during the next two summers to a literacy program at Butzel Middle School in Detroit. Webber spoke to 450 students at the school Wednesday, principal Lucille White told the Detroit Free Press. Under a plea agreement, Webber admitted to lying to the grand jury when he testified in August 2000 that he couldn't remember repaying Martin about $38,200 in 1994. Martin, a self-described Wolverines basketball booster, admitted giving a total of $616,000 to four former Michi- gan players, including $280,000 to Web- ber. The others played after the "Fab Five" reached the NCAA finals in 1992 and 1993. Martin pleaded guilty in May 2002 to charges of conspiracy to commit money laundering. He was awaiting sentencing when he died in February of a pul- monary embolism. RANKINGS Continued from Page 1 University graduates also received high marks for their analytical and prob- lem-solving skills, teamwork orientation and personal ethics and integrity. The Wall Street Journal's ranking sys- tem is based on responses from a total of 2,191 recruiters on 26 student and school attributes. Other factors taken into consideration were the students' communication and interpersonal skills, ability to work in teams, as well as the quality of schools' past graduates. Eighty percent of the total scores were based on recruiters' perceptions of the schools and their students, and the other 20 percent was determined by the "mass appeal" of the schools, in this case how many of the survey's partici- pants recruited from each school. Each school received ratings from at least 20 recruiters, who had to be famil- iar with the schools for which they pro- vided scores. Two other Big Ten rivals saw their business schools drop several places in the rankings. Michigan State Universi- ty's Broad School of Business fell from 13 to 21, while Ohio State University's Fisher School of Business declined from 18 to 25. Among the top private schools nationwide, Northwestern's Kellogg School of Business was ranked fourth, Harvard's was eighth, Yale's ninth and Stanford's 30th. WALK Continued from Page 1 her father, Rick, who she describes on the AFSP website as a six-foot- tall state police detective with a "large chest and muscular arms" who "was normally either incredi- bly happy or devastatingly sad most of his life." Two years ago, he shot himself in the head with a .45 cal- iber handgun, an event that shocked, angered and saddened Landry and her family. "We walk to get rid of the stigma attached to suicide," Landry said. "I'm not a freak or a weirdo because my father killed himself. He wasn't either. He was a very ill man who made a bad choice." In order to highlight and share the variety of reasons, this year's event will feature a message board for participants. Some of the messages are person- al statements; others are poems written to a friend or family mem- ber. States one message: "Depression, suicide and anxiety are debilitating and often not talked about enough in order for people to find the courage to overcome these illness- es. Having lived through depression anxiety, I would like to help others in any way I am able - like others have helped me." Depression Center Executive Director John Greden, who will participate in the event, said the silence and stigmas surrounding depression and suicide are two of the reasons why public events such as Into the Light are so beneficial to the cause they serve. "Many (people) in our society are still hesitant to talk about depres- sion," Greden said. "Younger peo- ple generally show more openness, but we still have work to do. Tennis elbows routinely get discussed; depression does not." LSA senior Amanda Barczyk has been struggling to cope with the realities of depression since her high school years, when her uncle and several peers committed sui- cide. She said she continued the strug- gle during college, when a family friend, as well as some University students she had become acquainted with, succumbed to depression and killed themselves. "With the enormous transition of coming to college, many students get lost in the shuffle. Plus, with the added stress of balancing course work, a social life, and extracurric- ular activities, it is hard for many students not to slip into depres- sion," said Barczyk, who recently co-founded the student-run group Teaching, Informing and Preventing Suicide. . "The more research that is con- ducted, the more programs that are started and the more informed our community becomes about depres- sion and suicide, the more likely everyone will be able to prevent it," she added. "Everyone should be a part of this walk, because at some point in everyone's life - if it hasn't hap- pened already - they will know someone who is battling depres- sion."

The source of the alleged remark was an Oct. 7, 2002, letter to the editor in the Daily by political science Prof. Zvi Gitelman. . Cole said al-Qaida consists of 3,000 to 5,000 members worldwide.
