NEWS The Michigan Daily - Friday, April 07, 2006 - 7 * FRIEZE Continued from page 1 Washington Street for 99 years - opening before World War I as Ann Arbor High School. In 1956, the University purchased and expanded the structure. "The historical preservation part is very important," Wood said. "I think it's a cop-out on the University's part to have the sentiment that because it's old it's not good anymore." Wood began the project in January and has since obtained a permit from the University to use the Frieze parking lot. The building's exterior lights will be turned off for the exhibition. The exhibi- tion will take place the last day of classes - the latest date the University would allow amplified sound on campus before it interfered with students' final exam preparation. Terri Sarris, a professor in the Depart- ment of Screen Arts and Cultures and one of Wood's thesis advisors, said the project has received University and department support. The department has granted Wood funding from its honors account for the event. "She's doing an interesting project that's linking a written thesis with this produc- tion process," Sarris said. "Her project involves expanded cinema; it is a very cre- ative event:' Sarris said much of Wood's work involves projected imagery that delves beyond the typical cinematic experience, changing the relationship between specta- tor and film. But the project is still lacking commu- nity involvement. The pair is looking for public stories and memories, either positive or negative, to accompany the projections. "For me it's a building, but for others it's so many other things," Wood said. "Every person's story is unique. We're trying to give people that voice, that outlet. The audio is so important because it is the easi- est way to contribute" Wood hopes her project will give the Frieze Building the farewell it may not have gotten otherwise. "I'm doing this to create a community event and show respect for the place," Wood said. "It's a communal goodbye." Plans originally called for the wrecking ball this summer. Last month, though, the schematic designs for North Quad were pulled off the schedule of the University Board of Regents meeting at which the regents were to be asked to approve them. The exterior designs needed some refine- ment, officials said. It is not clear what effect of the delay will be on the time- line for the demolition of Frieze. COLEMAN Continued from page 1 you move into a community and contact the Michigan Alumni Association, you'll get a foot in the door at a job. You're paying for all that." Responding to a question about how the University prepares students for careers, Coleman said the University offers unique opportunities like the Undergraduate Research Opportunity Pro- gram. When another student asked about the necessity of the Univer- sity's language requirement, Coleman said it's far more important than students realize. "Does it give you a successful life? No. But does it give you a leg up? You bet," Coleman said. Coleman described a student with stellar career opportunities, mostly because the student learned Mandarin while working as an intern in China. "She's interviewing for jobs now, and the only thing they're interested in is that she's worked in China and she speaks some Mandarin," Coleman said. "When I see what's happening in globalization, I think (the language requirement) will be more important." For a University graduate with only a bachelor's degree, finding a job is not too difficult, Coleman said. "There are plenty of young people who can go out and get bach- elor's degrees and get wonderful jobs," Coleman said. "My son is one of them." Coleman said after the discussion that her favorite question came from a student who criticized the University's faculty for discouraging creative thinking in classes. He said students could only get A's if they followed professors' expectations. "Even though I do think students need to learn how to buttress their opinions with the facts, I think he poses a very important point," she said. But the University must make sure it teaches students the skills they need, Coleman added. "We need to be finding ways to say 'Look, did the individual faculty member accomplish what they said they would accom- plish by the end of the course?' " she said. Neuman's class covers a variety of topics like interdisciplinary education, the economics of education and human capital theory. He first taught the course at Yale, where he invited for- mer Yale President Bart Giamatti to speak. Neuman said Giamatti's discussion of governance was a valuable addition, so he decided to invite Coleman to take questions from his students. Because of her initiatives involving team teaching and inter- disciplinary studies, Coleman was a natural speaker candidate, Neuman said. The students' aggressive questioning was impressive and showed their interest in academic issues, Coleman said. "I was really glad," she said. "I enjoy that kind of give- and-take." ALUM Continued from page 1 group in Ann Arbor and they suggested that we go through an evaluation. They've convinced us that we should talk about these things rather than keep them suppressed," he said. Now he tells his story freely, carefully showing inquiring eyes his small collection of mementos, including dog tags, medals, Nazi knickknacks and various pieces of correspon- dence. Life in a war camp As a former orisoner of war, Zimmerman had quite a bit to put behind him. He was captured in 1944 in German territory when Nazi fighters shot down his plane in a firestorm that claimed the lives of 160 men in his squadron. "At that time, (the Allies) were putting 1,000 planes or 1,500 planes over Germany in a given day. All that is exciting, and then they start shoot- ing at you and you realize the game is over- they are trying to kill you," he said. After taking heavy shots from anti-aircraft machinery, he and his men bailed out of their burning plane, only to parachute into Nazi hands. He and the rest of the crew, some with serious shrapnel wounds, were taken to a bombed-out military camp near Leipzig, Germany. There they were imprisoned in 6-by-8-foot cells and detained for more than eight months. The guards were friendly at first, but once interrogations began, things turned ugly. Zim- merman said conditions at the camp were crude to say the least, with more than 10,000 prisoners living on the same compound. Food was small pieces of black bread littered with glass and dirt in addition to soup laced with strange meat. "We never knew the genesis of the soup, but we used to think it was horse meat," he said. But living conditions and ferocious guard dogs were not the prisoners' biggest concern. Instead, it was fear of friendly fire. Prisoners were often transported in German trains that were prime targets for Allied bombers. Zim- merman and his fellow captives often imag- ined their own train being strafed by American fighter planes. "We were concerned, but it never happened," he said. Despite their confinement, prisoners at Zim- merman's camp were able to keep abreast on news from the outside world via a small radio given to them by friendly guards. Often he was able to send short messages, not knowing whether they would reach his home. The messages made it home, unbeknownst to him until after the war. Ham radio opera- tors on the East Coast sent his mother dozens of postcards saying they had heard his name announced on military radio. To this day, Zimmerman keeps those post- cards in a carefully covered portfolio. One, dated February 18, 1945, reads: "Mrs. Zimmerman, Last night via short wave from Berlin the following message was sent to you from your son who is a prisoner of war in Germany: Dear Folks, I am ok and was not injured. I am at Stalag Luft. See Red Cross for any information you desire. I can study here and I'll be able to send money. Love, 'Leon.'" Red Liberation, Blue Education Though Zimmerman was held at the camp from November 1944 to May 1945, he said his stay was "not anything compared to a lot of guys." Many were held for years. His liberation came unexpectedly. When German troops heard news of the Russian Army advancing on the peninsula where the camp was located, Zimmerman said, the Nazis "got up and left." Shortly after, Russian tanks roared up to the gates of the prison and freed the prisoners. . When the Russian officers discovered the poor health and general emaciation of the men, they ordered every living animal in the area to be slaughtered in a feast for the newly freed soldiers. But it didn't turn out to be the blessing intended. "You hadn't had fresh meat in so long that you couldn't keep it down," Zimmerman said. After returning home, Zimmerman enrolled at the University with help from the GI Bill, which paid his tuition and offered him a month- ly stipend of $100. While he had to work to sup- plement this money, he said the GI allowance made a difference for his family. "One hundred dollars today doesn't mean anything, but then it was substantial," he said. Zimmerman now lives in a quiet stone house on a serene lane in Jackson with his wife. Even as an octogenarian, he remains highly active in his community-serving at his church, deliv- ering meals for Jackson County Meal Service, maintaining membership with the Kiwanis and donating to the Ella Sharp Museum, a local his- torical society.
