NEWS The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, November 29, 2005 - 7 SCHOOLS Continued from page 1 medical school class were University graduates. The second most represented school was Harvard University, account- ing for 4.5 percent of entering students. In the MBA program - in which Uni- versity students are nearly 10 percent more likely to be accepted than other applicants - 12 percent of all students are University graduates. "(University students) are incred- ibly well prepared, monumentally well prepared," said Daniel Remick, assis- tant dean for admissions at the Medical School. "(It's) what the numbers show - we really want students from this university, we know we're getting a high -quality product from U of M." Zearfoss said the quality of Law School applicants from the University is comparable to that of Harvard and Yale graduates. She added that compared to Ivy League schools, the University doesn't coddle its students and has rela- tively little grade inflation. Jim Hayes, the director of admissions for the University's business school, said that when high school students are con- sidering which college to attend, they should think ahead to graduate school. "If I were talking about my own kids, I'd clearly steer them to a school where the MBA program is reputable and they also have a decent shot at admission (to the MBA pro- gram)," Hayes said, adding that he has sent three of his four children to the University. But Chris Lucier, senior associate director of undergraduate admis- sions, said he advises high school students not to place too much weight on their prospects for gradu- ate school when they apply for col- lege. "(At the University), I can be in a frat(ernity) or go to a football game or be in any type of club imagin- able," Lucier said. "That's what real- ly draws students to Michigan." Remick said that although it is impossible to quantify how impor- tant a student's undergraduate school is for admission to the Medi- cal School, it ranks as one of his top considerations. "When high school students ask me what they can do to get into medical school, I tell them, 'Get into Michigan,"' he said. BREAK-INS Continued from page 1 robbed Sunday. Some of the residents of the house were awake until 3 a.m. But when Lavigne came downstairs at 10 a.m., the house's microwave, a PlayStation and the living-room tele- vision were gone. There was no evidence of forced entry, and members of the frater- nity plan to change all of the locks, Lavigne said, adding that the crime appeared to be well-planned and that he thinks the perpetrator was some- one who had been to their house before. While the victims said they do not feel threatened or less safe than before the break-ins, they advised other students to lock all windows and doors before leaving. Daily News Editor Michael Kan contributed to this report AIDS Continued from page 1 we have seen two or more times more positive test results at UHS than yearly totals for 1996-2002," she said. This rise in HIV cases could be due in part to the higher number of people getting tested. Jarret-Ten- ney said UHS now conducts 1,100 to 1,300 tests per year, while in 1987, it conducted only 241. This increase could result from a lessening of the social stigma placed on. people with HIV/AIDS. "It is often hard to walk in the door to get tested, but usually once people have gotten the test, they are glad that they did," Jarret-Tenney said.

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger will have 14 days to set a date for an election to replace Cunningham, the governor's office said. He is the first congressman to leave office amid bribery allegations since 2002, when former Rep. James Trafi- cant (D-Ohio) was sentenced to eight years in prison after being convicted of racketeering and accepting bribes. The case began when authori- ties started investigating Cunning- ham's sale of his Del Mar house to defense contractor Mitchell Wade for $1,675,000. Wade sold the house nearly a year later for $975,000 - a loss of $700,000 in a hot real estate market. Prosecutors said the house pur- chase was part of Cunningham's guilty pleas. In addition to buying Cunningham's home at an inflated price, Wade let him live rent-free on Wade's yacht, the Duke Stir, at a yacht club. Wade's company, MZM Inc., also donated generously to Cunningham's campaigns. Around the same time, MZM was winning defense contracts. MZM does classified intelligence work for the military. It had $65.5 million of contracts for intelligence- related defense work in fiscal 2004, ranking No. 38 on the Pentagon's list. The company has established a pres- ence in Iraq, fielding a small team of interpreters shortly after the inva- sion. I FIVE AND SIX bdrm. apts. Avail. for fall '06. Downtown - 2 blocks from campus.

It's easy to feel criti- cal of everything around you because you're disappointed in something. (This passes quickly.) TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You might feel disillusioned with oth- ers today - especially partners or close friends. But you have to ask yourself: Are your expectations realistic? Maybe not. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) It's a bit challenging at work today. Nothing is where it's supposed to be. People let you down. You might get dis- couraged. Be aware that everybody feels this way today; you're not alone. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) There isn't a parent in the world who doesn't feel guilty at times. Raising chil- dren is an enormous responsibility. Don't be down on yourself today regard- ing children and creative projects. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You might feel sorry for a family member today, or you might feel sorry for yourself. These feelings won't help anyone. What disappoints you today is nn1-2- dhcn- +nn'....rru nhn+ ; i Today you doubt your sense of good for- tune. (Let this go.) SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) The Moon in your sign makes you more emotional. You're sensitive to fail- ures and feelings of inadequacy. Hey - who's perfect? No one. Relax. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Optimism and physical activity are survival issues for you. You have to believe in yourself, and you have to believe in a better tomorrow. Therefore, dispel those negative vibes! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) A friend might disappoint you. Or vice versa. Keep in mind that only those you really care about can get a reaction from you. Don't take this seriously. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You might feel like a boss or a parent is upset with you today. Or you might feel let down. There's a lot of confusing negative vibes out there today. Shake them off! PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Unexpressed expectations lead to dis- appointment. Unrealistic expectations do the same thing. Ironically, when you're disillusioned, it means the illusion is now removed! (Go figure.) vMIT T RlD NTl AV Va ra h th St.=Study M=May S=Sept. J=Jacuzzi All have been completely remodeled.
