GAME
From page LA
ing. When you leave the stadium,
they're yelling."
The Buckeye faithful are notori-
ous for making Ohio Stadium one of
the nation's most hostile road envi-
ronments, especially when the visit-
ing squad is sporting maize and blue.
Quarterback Chad Henne
remembers trying to have a conver-
sation with the person next to him
as he sat on the sideline during the
Wolverines' last trip to Columbus, a
37-21loss in 2004. Then a freshman,
Henne couldn't be heard unless he
screamed as loud as he could.
And a spot in the National Cham-
pionship game wasn't even up for
grabs then.
When asked to describe the atmo-
sphere in the Horseshoe, fifth-year
senior Rueben Riley offered up just

two words: loud and unfriendly.
Even though the stadium will
probably be even louder and more
unfriendly than usual, Michigan
believes it can handle the noise. Most
of its starters have already lined up in
front of the infamous Buckeye crowd
during their careers.
"Other than playing an outstand-
ing football team, the great chal-
lenge is playing in a stadium that
is so loud," Michigan coach Lloyd
Carr said. "Havingbeen there, they
know that. They've seen the colors;
they've heard the band; they've
seen those jerseys. So those things
aren't new to them. ... I think for
those that have been there, that's
an advantage."
In a game of this magnitude, it's
safe to say both teams will be look-
ing for any edge they can get.
After all, even when The Game
isn't being touted as The Game of

Friday, November 17, 2006 - 7A
the Century, it's still the biggest
contest on either team's schedule.
From 1972 to 1981, the showdown
decided which squad would earn a
Rose Bowl berth.
Some things never change. Only
this time around, the loser will
disappointedly ring in the New
Year in Pasadena.
That's something the Wolverines
would like to avoid this season, the
seniors especially. After Michigan's
last two classes couldn't beat Ohio
State in their final try, this year's
group would love to go out with
arguably the biggest win over the
Buckeyes ever.
"You just see a sickening feeling
in the face of those guys, and you
know you don't want to feel that
way," Riley said. "Just looking at
them and seeing how that affected
them, I don't want to feel like that
on my way out."

profile unfamiliar to Andrews. He
suspects it may have been a front.
A bleak frustration was gestat-
ing. But so was an idea.
Within minutes, he was logging
onto his e-mail account. He saw
an opportunity. He sent an e-mail
with the subject line "Messages of
Hate" through iMpact, the Busi-
ness school's mass e-mail system.
He then sent messages to dozens
of groups, including the University
chapters of the NAACP and Black
Student Union.
The e-mails asked if others had
received similar messages and, if
they had, to preserve them as evi-
dence that ('equality and fairness
does not exist in this state."
"People see situations in history
textbooks, but they aren't aware
that this still happens now, all
around them," he said.
Andrews said members of the
black community were supportive,
but not surprised.
"Unfortunately on this campus,
it's not an uncommon thing," he
said.

Some shared similar stories with
him - incidents of harassment at
parties and in the dorms.
Sharon Vaighters, assistant to
the dean of students, confirmed
that students have reported several
hateful messages since last week's
election.
The trend is not new, she said.
The passage of Proposal 2 has
simply lent a new edge to the
harassment that already exists on
campus.
Andrews dismissed the idea that
the message directed toward him
was a prank.
"I think if you are aware of the
historical significance behind the
word, it would be very, very diffi-
cult to use itcin a joking manner," he
said. "Unless they're just unaware
of what's going on."
For him, this was evidence that
programs like affirmative action
are still needed, and badly.
For instance, he said, the wom-
an's profile showed she worked for
Rock Financial, a company that
many business students apply to.
"If she's interviewing me for a
job," he said. "I won't be perceived
as equal to other candidates."
Andrews attributed the incident

to cultural and racial seclusion. amountofstruggle,

'here the money

The main problem, Dance said, is
that a family is already assigned to
the house.
Kristina Diamantoni, a member
of the executive board of the Busi-
ness School's chapter, said the fam-
ily will have to wait a lot longer to
move into the house. They plan on
finishing by April or May.
Diamantoni is the classified
advertisement sales manager for
The Michigan Daily.
Normally, a house is finished by
mid-December, but in this case the
mother and her three children will
likely have to wait until spring to
move in.
The exterior of the house isdone
and closed for winter, Dance said.
"We can stop building until funds
are raised, possiblyinthespring, or we
can continue building with the hope
of finishing in the next month if funds
become available soon,"hesaid.
The chapters are collaborating
to try to figure out how to raise the
additional money.

"We are workingonpossibleloan
scenarios with the intent of payback
by April 2007," Dance said.
Typically, the money raised
by students comes from a silent
auction held during the winter
term. Donations from various
companies including Northwest
Airlines, Whirlpool and Calpha-
lon are auctioned off. Donations
also come from faculty, staff and
students.
Members of the Business School
chapter said one solution is to
use the money raised during the
upcoming auction to finish this
year's house.
Another option would be to
find donors in the spring, Dance
said, but he questioned the conse-
quences ofusing the money for next
year's house. It would likely result
in the loss or delay of another house
somewhere, he said.
Dance said the house needs to be
finished as soon as possible.
"It's now or never," he said.

UAAO is clearly out of order."
UAAO said the society contacted
itonce, late in October. UAAO exec-
utive board members said they are
still in the process of trying to fig-
ure out when and how to respond.
Abou-Chakra also said UAAO
pushed the amendment through
the meeting without open discus-
sion, a charge the congress denies.
The person familiar with the situ-
ation who requested anonymity said
few representatives came to the Oct.
4 meeting, and the agenda e-mailed

to member groups before the meeting
failed to mention the amendment.
Only nine votes were cast, because
some representatives left the meeting
early, the source said. UAAO's consti-
tution stipulates that each of the 37
member organizations have a repre-
sentative present. Normally onlyl10 to
15 are present. The constitution also
requires a three-fourthsvote.
The resolution said UAAO will
conduct an "informal check-in"
on the progress of its demands on
Wednesday, after which it will
evaluate its course of action.
