MEDIA RELATIONS
From page 1A
of the perception that the campus is
becoming less welcoming to minor-
itystudents. TheUniversityhas also
faced intense scrutiny after Univer-
sity President Mary Sue Coleman
took a defiant stand against Pro-
posal2 the day after its passage.
Whenmajornewsbreaks,Peterson
has been responsible for immediately
forming the University's response,
she told The Wire news blog on mich-
igandailycom lastmonth.
"We have to be ready for any-
thing," Peterson said. "It's a lot of
work."
The VP for communications
CAAS
From page 1A
stagnate because of Proposal 2.
She asked what CAAS will do to
protect black interests on campus.
The panelists, along with Ter-
rence McDonald, dean of the Col-
lege of Literature, Science, and
the Arts, assured students that the
department would not be hurt.
BSU Vice-Speaker Sheldon
Johnson then stood up to express
his frustration with what he con-
oversees five departments that
function as the public face of the
University.
These include the Office of
Media Relations and Public Affairs
- which handles inquiries from the
press and public - and University
News and Information Services,
which is responsible for publishing
the University Record and posting
news items on the University'sweb-
site. Peterson has worked inboth of
those offices.
The communications office also
includes the Freedom of Infor-
mation Office, which oversees all
requests for information submitted
under the Freedom of Information
Act, and Michigan Radio, the Uni-
versity's affiliate of National Public
Radio.
Ine her new role,rPeterson will
report directly to President Cole-
man
"I believe I have one of the
most interesting jobs on campus,
and every day that I come to work
I learn more about the amazing
accomplishments of our faculty,
staff and students," Peterson said
yesterday in an e-mail. "I look for-
ward to serving the University in
this new role."
In an e-mail sent to University
employees last week, Coleman said
she trusts Peterson to hold down
the fort.
"I am confident that we will not
miss a beat as we traverse the win-
ter semester," Coleman said.
One last roll call for the
survivors of infamous day
siders a half-hearted response by
the University.
"When are we going to stop edu-
cating (on affirmative action) and
make a move?" Johnson asked.
Johnson said the University
expectsstudentstomake a difference
but hasn't taken enough steps toward
protectingminority interests.
Panelists said students play a
crucial role in effecting change on
campus.
"Affirmative action did not come
down from the administration or
the federal government," History
Prof. Matthew Lassiter said. "It
came about on the grassroots level."
CAAS Prof. Kevin Gaines said
minority students concerned about
being marginalized on campus
should make an effort to wield
their influence.
"The newspaper and student
government - those are yours," he
said. "They might not be servicing
you now, but you can change that by
getting involved."

PEARL HARBOR, Havaii (AP)
- This will be their last visit to
this watery grave to share stories,
exchange smiles, find peace and
salute their fallen friends.
This, they say, will be their final
farewell.
With their number quickly
dwindling, survivors of Pearl Har-
bor will gather today one last time
to honor those killed by the Japa-
nese 65 years ago, and to marka day
that lives in infamy.
"This will be one to remember,"
said Mal Middlesworth, president
of the Pearl Harbor Survivors Asso-
ciation. "It's going to be something
that we'll cherish forever."
The survivors have met here
every five years for four decadesbut
they're now in their 80s or 90s and
are not counting on a 70th reunion.
They have made every effort to
report for one final roll call.
"We're like the dodo bird. We're
almost extinct,"said Middlesworth,
now an 83-year-old retiree from
Upland, Calif., but then - on Dec.
7, 1941 - an 18-year-old Marine on
the USS San Francisco.
Nearly 500 survivors from
across the nation were expected to
make the trip to Hawaii, bringing
with them 1,300 family members,
numerous wheelchairs and too
many haunting memories.
Memories of a shocking, two-
hour aerial raid that destroyed or
heavily damaged 21 ships and 320
aircraft, that killed 2,390 people
and wounded 1,178 others, that
plunged the United States into
World War II and set in motion the
events that led to atomic bombings
of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
"I suspect not many people have
thought about this, but we're wit-
nessing history," said Daniel Mar-
tinez, chief historian at the USS
Arizona Memorial. "We are seeing
the passing of a generation."
The attack may have occurred
65 years ago, but survivors say they
can still hear the explosions, smell
the burning flesh, taste the sea
water and hear the cries.
"The younger ones were crying,
'Mom! Mom! Mom!"' said Edward
Chun, who witnessed the attack
fromthe Ten-Tendock,just acouple
hundred yards away from Battle-
ship Row.
Chun, 83, had just begun his
workday as a civilian pipe fitter
when he was thrust into assisting
in everything from spraying water
on the ships to aiding casualties.
"From the time the first bomb
dropped and for the next 15 min-
utes, it was complete chaos," he said.
"Nobody knew what was going on.
Everybody was running around like
a chicken with their head cut off."
Chun saw the Oklahoma and
West Virginia torpedoed by Japa-
nese aircraft. He heard the tap-
ping of sailors trapped in the hulls
of sunken ships. He escaped death
when Ten-Ten was strafed, leaving
behind dead and wounded.
"HowInevergothit,Idon'tknow,"
said Chun, who was later drafted and
served in the Korean and Vietnam
wars. "I'll tell you a secret: When
your number comes up, you're going
to go. Well, every morning I get up, I
change mynumber."

For Thursday, Dec. 7, 2006
ARIES
(March 21 to April 19)
Avoid heated arguments about poli-
tics, religion or racial issues. It's very
easy to get involved in something like
this today. Just remember: There are
none so deaf as those who are wearing
headphones.
TAURUS
(April 20to May 20)
This is a poor day to try to divide
something or deal with shared property.
You feel territorial and possessive. (And
so does everybody else.)
GEMINI
(May 21 to June 20)
You might become strongly attracted
to someone today. A casual relationship
might deepen into a serious commit-
ment! This is because your attraction is
hot and intense!
CANCER
(Jane 211toJuly 22)
Whatever you do today at work, you'll
attack it with ferocity. You feel very
strongly about how to make improve-
ments or how to introduce reforms or
better ways of doing things.
LEO
(July 23 to Aug. 22)
You feel very passionate about life
today. Romantic relationships that begin
now will definitely be memorable!
Sports and the arts hold excitement for
you.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)
This is a wonderful day to redecorate
bathrooms or improve plumbing - or,
for that matter, to improve any part of
your home. Family discussions are
intense today. Listen carefully.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)
All your communication with others is
unusually emotional or intense today.
Nothing is halfway; everything is either
black or white. (This makes compromise
difficult.)
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)
You're practically obsessed with buy-
ing something today. Something to do
with your cash flow has you by the
throat. You can't wait any longer. This
same intensity might apply to how you
want to earn money as well.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)
You might feel very attracted to some-
one today. (Your gonads are in over-
drive.) Quite likely, you'll be flirting
with someone before the day is over.
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)
Either your ambition or your intense
curiosity about something will make you
dig deep for answers today. In doing so,
you might come up with some juicy
secrets!
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20to Feb. 18)
This is the kind of day when lovers
can become friends and friends can
become lovers. People easily feel a
strong attraction to each other.
PISCES
(Feb. 19to March 20)
Some of you might develop a crush on
your boss. Others will want to speak out
(very passionately) about issues that are
close to your heart.
YOU BORN TODAY You're a first-
rate individualist. You have your own
style; you do things your own way.
You're intelligent and imaginative.
You're attracted to characters and other
independent thinkers. Quite often, you
try many fields before you choose what
you want. You stay busy with family and
friends. The year ahead is full of excit-
ing, new beginnings. Open any door!
