The Michigan Daily - michigandaily.com Thursday, December 6, 2006 - 7A 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." - Lisa Haidostian contributed to this report. 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." the michigan daily 7 BDRM. HOUSE. 3 baths. New reno- AVAILAE vation, free prkg.

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! Birthdate of C. Thomas Howell, actor; Terrell Owens, football wide receiver; Noam Chomsky, writer. 4 BDRM. APT. on Hill/Church.
