ENTREE
Continued from page 1A
parison because its campus is not as integrated into the community
as Michigan's.
"We should look at a campus more like ours," Siegel said.
Other schools' solutions to the possible loss of revenue include
the creation of a small flat rate or percentage charge to businesses
that use entree plus, Madoff said.
According to Madoff, schools like Michigan State have had suc-
cess charging businesses small fees for taking the programs off-
campus. In part because of MSU's program, LSA-SG has reopened
the issue despite MSA's consistent failure.
"What MSA hasn't been able to do shouldn't dictate what LSA
Student Government should do," Yahkind said.

READING
Continued from page 1A
fantastic or suspenseful situations,
such as the Harry Potter series, "The
Outsiders," "Holes" and "Hatchet."
"One of the main themes is that the
books feel real to them," Moje said.
In her new book, "Constructions
of Literacy: Studies of Teaching
and Learning in and Out of Second-
ary Schools," Moje explores young
people's attitudes toward the written
word. Contrary to the popular belief
that adolescents don't read, Moje
has found that 77 percent of students,
could name a favorite book.
Using these findings, Moje hopes
to help teachei-s engage students in
subject material using different types
of texts that are interesting to them.
Rackham student Lisa Hoffman,
who also teaches ninth grade biol-
ogy and English at Harrison High
School in Farmington, has used
Moje's techniques to engage her stu-
dents in course work.
"You have to focus on the issues
within the books and help students
to relate the issues to the things
that are important to them," she
said. "So when you're talking about
something like Romeo and Juliet,

you're talking about love and rela-
tionships".
In her biology class, she brings
in newspaper articles, cartoons, pic-
tures and graphs to help students
Vnderstand the material through
"visual representation."
Moje includes competency in text
messaging, instant messaging con-
versations and even graffiti in her
definition of literacy.
"One has to acknowledge the fact
that these forms of communication
rely on knowledge of and exper-
tise with symbol systems (including
alphabetic symbols)," Moje said in an
e-mail interview. "Thus, studying how
and why youth use such forms allows
us to build on those literate skills to
further develop what we sometimes
call academic literacy skills"
Educators in the real-world are
looking towards these types of stud-
ies for feedback.
Laura Schiller, a literacy consul-
tant for Oakland Intermediate School
District, helps teachers look at ways
to help students with reading.
"We have to do a really good job
in talking to our kids and finding out
their interests and how to use those
interests as a way to engage them in
their schoolwork," Schiller said.

ABA
Continued from page 1A
"The requirement of a constitutional provi-
sion or statute that purports to prohibit consid-
eration of gender, race, ethnicity or national
origin in admissions or employment decisions
is not a justification for a school's non-compli-
ance with (the ABA's new standards)"
The text replaced an earlier segment that
said the entire ABA standard "does not require
a law school to adopt policies or take actions
that would violate federal law applicable to that
school." The ABA's Standards Review Com-
mittee eliminated this provision during a regu-
lar review in January.
Bernstein said the change in language could
encourage schools to break the law.
"I think a reasonable observer would say
that if you have language in the proposal that
you have to obey the law, and then you put in
language that says obeying the law isn't an
excuse.... This is at least an invitation - if not
a requirement - to break the law," Bernstein
said.
Sebert said the committee thought the
original language was "superfluous" and
that the new interpretation is consistent
with the 2003 Grutter v. Bollinger decision
by the Supreme Court that upheld the Law
School's use of race as a factor in admis-
sions, but struck down a points system used
in admissions.

Bernstein also said the suggested meth-
ods the ABA has recommended will do little
good for small law schools in states that have
outlawed race considerations in admissions.
Recruitment, scholarships and other
efforts may be too expensive for small
schools, Bernstein said.
Bernstein said when faced with pressure
from the ABA to increase diversity, small
schools may feel compelled to use illegal
considerations in their admissions, rather
than expensive alternatives.
Bernstein said this scenario is less likely
to happen in a large school, like Michigan,
because such schools typically have enough
money to devote to minority recruitment and
scholarships without risking cuts to their
budgets.
When Sebert was asked if such a scenario
could compel a small law school to break the
law, Sebert said he could not comment on a
hypothetical issue.
Sebert said the ABA has 'not revoked a
school's accreditation in more than 50 years,
but Bernstein said he has talked to some law
school deans who say they have been pres-
sured by the ABA.
Caminker said the Law School would not
break the law if it passes in Michigan.
"What is clear is that if a school is disabled
by state law from taking race into account,
it is disabled from taking race into account,
period," Caminker said.

JAIL
Continued from page 1A
they receive here," Minzey
said.
The Washtenaw County
Jail offers a wide variety of
treatment programs to its
* inmates, many of which are
not offered at other facili-
ties.
Programs include a GED
program, substance-abuse
programs and anger man-
0 agement help as well as

a variety of other classes
designed to help inmates
become functioning mem-
bers of society.
Inmate Carl Stambaugh,
a former University student,
said that because of the
range of services offered
he doesn't want to be trans-
ferred to another jail.
"There's always the possibil-
ity of them boarding me out," he
said. "Granted, I don't want to
be shipped out. (The programs
here) give people a chance to
better themselves."

ARIES
(March 21 to April 19)
Don't be worried if others are critical
of your creative talents. What do they
really know? Nobody ever bought Van
Gogh's paintings while he was alive.
Just believe in yourself.
TAURUS
(April 20 to May 20)
Relations with authority figures and
parents are bit strained today. People are
afraid to say what they really think.
Don't worry about this. It's not a big
deal.
GEMINI
(May 21 to June 20)
You might feel resentful that some-
body has something or is successful in
some way. This is a human trait, but it
serves no purpose. Other people's good
fortune doesn't mean you're a loser.
CANCER
(June 21 to July 22)
You're quite conservative with your
finances today. Suddenly, you feel wor-
ried about limited resources. Just be fair
in all your dealings with others.
LEO
(July 23 to Aug. 22)
You'll be better off if you put little
pleasures aside and work hard today.
Yesterday was the day to play, not today.
Just focus on your duties and obliga-
tions.
VIRGO

tions! And you were once an obligation
yourself. (This just goes with the terri-
tory.)
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)
Things at home might feel a bit lack-
luster today. You could feel moody.
Don't take these feelings seriously; they
will pass in a day.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)
You might feel like you're the only
one in the room not having fun today.
But that isn't true. Everybody feels a bit
reserved and nervous today.
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)
If you have financial business today,
you will be very aware of details, rules
and regulations. You have mouse mind
today, not eagle mind.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)
You don't have to pretend to feel any-
thing you don't feel. It's appropriate to
pull in your energy today and just be by
yourself. You want to hang on to your
money!
PISCES
(Feb. 19 to March 20)
Your best bet today is to do hard work.
Others are not in a jovial, playful mood.
Therefore, expect very little, and just
tackle whatever is at hand.
YOU BORN TODAY
You are sensitive, and you have deep
