VETERANS
From Page 1
cerns of studentveterans.
"We all have a deep sense of grat-
itude to our veterans," Hower said.
"If they are interested in pursuing
an education and think that'Michi-
gan is the right place for them, then
we want to make that happen."
Hower said the Office of the Reg-
istrar had already partnered with
the U.S. Department of Veterans
Affairs to ensure students get G.I.
Bill benefits and that the Office of
Undergraduate Admissions has
counselors who understand the
needs of veteran applicants. But
Hower said veterans often have
trouble accessing those services
because of the lack of communica-
tion between the separate offices.
Now, the Office of New Student
Programs and the U-M Council on
Student Veterans will lead efforts to
organize all affairs for student vet-
erans at the University.
"The goal is to coordinate these
resources," Hower said. "A lot is
already in place, but people might
not be aware of it."

The Office of New Student Pro-
grams will hire a "transition spe-
cialist" to serve asa liaison between
University offices and student vet-
erans and assist students with the
deployment and return processes
involved in military service.
To help veterans acclimate to
their new surroundings at the Uni-
versity, the ONSP will coordinate a
mentorship program that matches'
prospective and new students with
upperclassmen and faculty veteran
mentors.
According to Drew Tinnin, assis-
tant director of the ONSP, mentors
will help student veterans work
with the University administra-
tion to provide social support as the
students, adjust to the significant
change in lifestyle.
Tinnin said the by the end of the
semester the Office of New Student
Programs will launch a website be
accessible to students on campus
and in active military service. He
said the site would provide step-by-
step instructions explaining how
students can apply to the University
and arrange to receive financial aid.
The site will provide contact
information for University officials

who have experience in dealing
with the concerns of student veter-
ans, Tinnin said.
The council's projects, including
the new student veterans liaison
position, the website and the men-
toring program, will be financed
by the Office of New Student Pro-
grams and the Office of the Provost.
The start-up cost for the program is
about $70,000.
LSA junior Derek Blumke, found-
ing president of the University's
Student Veterans Association and
president of the national group
Student Veterans of America, first
approached university officials
about improving resources for stu-
dent veterans last fall.
Blumke said the University's
efforts will make it easier for veter-
ans to apply and get the benefits to
which they are entitled.
"The whole application process
at the majority of college campuses
is geared to the high school gradu-
ate - not the person who just served
a year in Iraq," Blumke said. "Now
they can focus more on what they're
doing overseas instead of trying to
deal with the bureaucracy of the
university."

staff, everybody that was there at
our building, that I had resigned
and accepted the job at Michigan,
which was Sunday afternoon (Dec.
16), I was no longer the coach at
West Virginia," Rodriguez said.
Rodriguez's cell phone records,
obtained by the Charleston (W.V.)
Daily Mail under freedom of
information laws, show the coach
contacted at least two Michigan
football recruits the night of Dec.
16.
Rodriguez would not elaborate
on why he shouldn't have to pay the
buyout, but had a definitive answer
when asked if he would apologize,
pay the $4 million and leave West
Virginia behind.
"Apologize for what? That's a
subjective feeling, isn't it?" Rodri-
guez said.
"I know there are feelings hurt.
I said that before, told that to the
team that I'm sorry the way things
have worked out. But I changed
jobs. This is America. Sometimes
you change jobs."

reflect the tragedy of the thousands
killed by Israeli forces.
"Unfortunately the media has

cumstances," he said.

were victims of collective punish-
ment and to blame the entirety of
Israel would undermine the basic
premise of the protest - that col-
lective punishment is never justi-
fied.
Although Freilich didn't direct-
ly address the current situation
in Gaza, he argued that walling
off Israel's border with Gaza has
quelled some of the violence.
Freilich also criticized Hamas, a
militant Palestinian groupthat cur-
rently controls the Gaza Strip. He
said that though Hamas has helped
the Palestinian people in peaceful
ways, the group is still focused on
destroying Israel through violence.
"Hamas is not about peace, it's
not about social welfare. It's about
continuing to fight against Israel,"
he said.
