NEWS The Michigan Daily - Monday, February 20, 2006 - 7A HOSPITAL Continued from page 1A versity of Michigan Health System. "We have a longstanding commitment to envi- ronmental stewardship, and this is part of that commitment." Robert Kelch, the University's execu- tive vice president for medical affairs, said the extra money is worth it. "We researched the process extensive- ly and concluded that the cost associated with this will be warranted over the long term" Kelch told the regents. The cost of the hospital will be cov- ered by UMHS funds and donations. University Regent David Brandon and his wife Jan, along with head football coach Lloyd Carr and his wife Laurie, are leading a fundraising drive to benefit the hospital. Their project has already raised $46 million toward the new hospital. In approving the design, the regents approved an increase in the hospital's size. The hospital will occupy 1.1 mil- lion square feet, an increase from the 1 million originally planned. Included in that 1.1 million.square feet are 180,000 square feet of shell space for programs for future expansion. The current children's hospital is about 272,000 square feet. "We're trying to think about what may be coming down the road in terms of medical advancements," Hopson said. The hospital will be L-shaped, with one nine-floor wing mainly dedicated to clinics and offices and a 12-floor wing mainly to inpatient and emergency care. The inpatient care wing will make up about 75 percent of the total space, and clinics and offices will make up the remaining 25 percent. Located on the intersection of East Medical Center Drive and East Hospital Drive across the street from Mary Mar- kley Residence Hall, the Mott hospital will replace a parking lot. Last year, 11,955 children were admit- ted or born at Mott. CARTOONS Continued from page 1A depiction of the prophet, even if it is positive, Blauvelt said depict- ing the prophet was not the main offense in the controversy. Images of Muhammad are seen in Islamic art from different periods and a bas relief of the prophet also appears in the U.S. Supreme Court along with other influential leaders. Islamic scholar Yusuf Abdul- lah said mobs of rioting Muslims in a number of countries feel the. prophet and in turn the religion have been disrespected. As both a spiritual and political leader, Muhammad is a central example of the principles of Islam, Abdul- lah said at the event. Organizers, however, made it clear that Islamic leaders have con- demned the mob violence surround- ing the cartoons' publications. The discussion at the event became most tense when it shift- ed from the specific instance of the recent cartoons to the line between free speech and respect- ing the customs of other religions. Audience members raised ques- tions about why the organizers thought free speech didn't apply to something that a group of peo- ple considered blasphemous and said criticism of Muhammad was no different than cartoons mock- ing Jesus or Moses. Muslim organizers refuted these claims by saying mockery of Jesus, Moses or any other prophets rec- ognized in Islam would be just as offensive but did not clearly respond to why criticizing prophets was not protected by free speech, except to say that the prophet embodied the entire religion. But the organization is plan- ning to expand on the issue after spring break with a panel discus- sion addressing the line between free expression and respect for religion, Blauvelt said. Shaukat said the group hopes to cover questions surrounding the controversy with more activi- ties including writing editorials and organizing other events. Before the discussion began Friday night, organizers showed the PBS documentary "Muham- mad: Legacy of the Prophet" to provide background and dem- onstrate to the audience the reverence Muslims held for the prophet. The event also gave Mus- lim students an opportunity to educate the audience about the Islamic faith, Shaukat said. She added that reacting peacefully to the controversy would be more in tune with the prophet's teachings and a more accurate embodiment of his character. Response to the event, was strong with about 150 people crowding the Pond Room of the Union to watch the documentary and participate in the discussion. Leading up the event the group even held back on publicity efforts once organizers realized the room would not be able to accommq- date the interest, Blauvelt said. From March 15 to 17, the ass6- ciation will also hold its annual "A Day in the Life" outreach program that pairs non-Muslim students with a Muslim student to shadow through daily prayer, everyday activities and Friday mosque seryice. The program's goal is to show participants that Muslims are not that different from themselves, pro- gram organizer Riaz Tootla said. SPAN Continued from page 1A to drop off papers or pick up things they had forgotten. Other problems with parking mostly centered on the ability to park in front of or near their own houses. The group thought that one way to deal with parking would be to make the parking zone map - found at City Hall - more easily accessible to all students. Another issue was the condi- tion of sidewalks during winter. Icy sidewalks are the responsi- bility of landlords, but some stu- dents said their sidewalks were never cleared. The longest discussion con- cerned the safety of off-campus neighborhood. One of the main concerns was whether students know how dangerous their neighborhoods are. Students spoke about poor lighting in certain parts of the area, especially on Cambridge Road. Students were most worried about walking home from librar- ies late at night. Though the Uni- versity provides programs like S.A.F.E. Walk to escort students home at night, which some said rarely responds to requests in a timely fashion. Many students conveyed worry that the Department of Public Safety was too focused on giving tickets, and not focused on campus safety. Though it was brought up, students were unable to come up with a solution to increase the trust between students and DPS. MPP members consulted with Dale Winling, a Rackham stu- dent who is the director of the New West Side Association, a group representing the interests of renters and students. Win- ling said he approved of MPP's plans. Nowinski said the two groups would not conflict. the michigan daily DO YOU LIKE FREE STUFF WITH YOUR APARTMENT? *FreeHeat, Free Water, Free Ethernet, Free Funiture Free Parking, Free Maintenance!
