ingham disagreed with
rpretation. She said the 1

percent figure applied not to the
existing seats, but only to the new
seats that are part of the stadium's
expansion.
Last month, the veterans group
also asked the state Legislature to
withhold the $320 million the Uni-
versity receives in state appropria-
tions until complied with the ADA's
standards for wheelchair accessi-
bility, but the Legislature didn't act
on the group's request.
The University Board of Regents
approved the schematic designs for
the stadium renovations in Novem-
ber. The regents must vote on the
project one more time before con-
struction begins. No date has been
set for the vote, which would offi-
cially allocate funds for the renova-
tion. The construction is slated for
completion in August 2010.

initiatives.
One of these is a push for more
endowed professorships, which
typically cost $2 million. The
University has pledged to add
$500,000 to any $1.5 million dona-
tion for an endowed professorship.
Malcolm said the campaign has
resulted in 10 new endowed pro-
fessorships since Oct. 21.
Because the University only
needs to receive half ofthe donation
before a professorship is awarded,
the professorship can be fulfilled
after it gets the first $500,000
installment from a donor coupled
with the University's contribution.
The University received its
largest gift in 2005 when Univer-
sity alum and real estate magnate
Stephen Ross gave a $100 million
donation, most of which went to
the Business School.

"He always loved Michigan
sports," Bensinger said.
The elder Bensinger said his
son loved the outdoors. During the
summer, he spent time sailing and
fishing near his house on Cape Cod
with his younger brother, Nicholas.
He loved adventure and had trav-

he visited local elementary schools
and read to students.
"He just loved Michigan," said
Jennifer Bensinger, his mother. "It
was always his dream to go there."
Bensinger planned to graduate
in May and was considering apply-
ing to medical school.
"It is just such a tragedy," said
Cheryl Brauer, a friend of the fam-
ily who has known him since birth.
"He was on the brink of so many
new and exciting things."

na is invalid, the student is still

subpoenas are usually rewritten
and resubmitted.
Once a case gets underway,
though, the University sits on the
sidelines.
The RIAA scans for illegal
downloading with an automated
program.
"It's not a person that makes
these decisions," Bernard said. "It's
a machine that's going around tire-
lessly."
Bernard said not all file-sharing
is illegal, but it is a crime to both
upload and download copyrighted
material without permission.
The University also tries to edu-
cate students about file sharing
before infractions occur.
Each semester, the University
hosts events about the dangers of
file sharing.
"We try to encourage students
to consider these issues from an
intellectual perspective," Bernard
said. "The idea is to help students
make thoughtful choices."
Bernard emphasized that stu-
dents need to learn about how to
deal with file sharing issues in
order to stop them.
He said threatening students
with lawsuits is not a long-term
solution to the problem.

For Friday, Feb. 23, 2007
ARIES
(March 21to April 19)
Be on the lookout for opportunities to
travel or further your education, because
these are the areas where you will
expand in 2007. (Water what wants to
grow.)
TAURUS
(April 20 to May 20)
This is a fortunate year for you,
because gifts, goodies and help from
others will come your way. Some of you
will receive an inheritance. Others will
get money back from the government.
GEMINI
(May 21to June 20)
Partnerships and close friendships are
beautifully blessed this year. Make the
most of this. Enjoy good times with oth-
CANCER
(June 21to July 22)
It's important to be constantly on the
lookout for ways to improve your job,
because that's exactly what you can do
this year. Expect a better job, better
duties or a promotion.
LEO
(July 23 to Aug. 22)
Your sign is looking at one of the most
fun-loving, social, romantic years
you've had in decades! In fact, some of
you will meet the love of your life.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)
Be on the lookout this year for real
estate deals or ways to improve where
you live. Similarly, you'll find family
relations much more joyful and
enriched.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)
Short trips, study, reading and writing
will give you joy and lots of valuable
information this year. It's a good time for
you simply because you're happier.

SCORPIO
(Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)
It will put a smile on your face to
know that you're going to make more
money this year. Naturally, if you make
more money, you're.going to be spend-
ing more as well. Ka-ching!
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22to Dec. 21)
This might be one of the best years of
your life. Your ruler, lucky Jupiter, is
back in your sign, bringing opportunities
and powerful people your way. Just snap
your fingers!
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22to Jan. 19)
Your sympathy for those who are less
fortunate increases, and this tender
frame of mind makes you a better per-
son. True happiness stems from helping
others.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)
Just accept the fact that your popular-
ity rating is increasing this year. Join
clubs and organizations. Make time for
your friends.
PISCES
(Feb. 19 to March 20)
Your career and your public reputation
have never looked better. You're really
going to put yourself on the map this
year. People will be impressed.
YOU BORN TODAY You have an
analytical mind, which makes you a
great problem-solver. Nevertheless,
you're practical and pragmatic. If you
want something, you're very convinc-
ing. In large measure, this is because you
believe in yourself. However, you also
know when to hold and when to fold.
(Your sense of timing is uncanny.) Give
yourself the time this year to study or
learn something important.
