JAROFF
From Page 1
Jaroff is most prominently
known for his role as the first
managing editor and founder
of Discover Magazine in 1980.
According to his son, Jaroff's
degree in electrical engineering
from the University sparked his.
interest in science, and while at
TIME, he identified a niche mar-
ket for science news and split off
to create his own publication.
"That was just a reflection of
his background and his excite-
ment over science and science
related issues," Peter Jaroff said.
Jaroff joined TIME as the mag-
azine's science editor and covered
in 1966, a historical decade of vast
scientific discoveries and ground-
breaking events. He wrote more
than 40 cover stories for the mag-
azine that addressed topics rang-
ing from "Race for the Moon" and
"Did Comets Kill the Dinosaurs?"
Peter Jaioff said his father
enjoyed his work as a reporter and
editor at the Daily, which laid the
foundation for Jaroff's career in
journalism.
"He loved it," Peter said. "Obvi-
ously his work on the Daily pre-
pared him for a long career in
journalism, and he never forgot
how important that was to him.
And he always had stories about
the deadline pressures, about

campaign rhetoric.
"This whole campaign cycle
has been in everybody's face so
much - watching TV, all the
debates," Allen said. "If you
haven't made up your mind yet, I
don't know whether you're wait-
ing for someone to screw up or
what it is. It's hard for me to see
that."
Aaron Kall, the director of the
University's debate program, said
another explanation for the apa-
thy of students might be the sub-
dued tone of this debate relative
to the others.
While Obama attacked Rom-
ney with zingers and sharper
criticism, still hoping to rebound
from his performance in the first
presidential debate, Romney was
more even-tempered, concen-

controversies on campus, about
people thinking he was a socialist
because of articles they printed in
the Daily."
In a Sept. 13, 2003 article by
Jaroff in TIME titled "HowI Won
the Michigan-Minnesota Game,"
Jaroff explained his experience
as freshman in the Big House. In a
tense moment in the game against
Minnesota with the Wolverines
trailing by one touchdown, Jaroff
took advantage of a silent moment
in the stadium to shout "Fumble,
ydu baaastards!" which was fol-
lowed by a Minnesota fumble.
Jaroff wrote that he was "picked
up and passed around the cheer-
ing student section" after Michi-
gan recovered the ball and went
on to win the game.
Jaroff also spread his infec-
tious passion for the University,
Peter Jaroff said, adding that
his father would have been very
proud of the outcome of Satur-
day's game against Michigan
State University.
"The whole family is die hard
Michigan fans. He loved Michi-
gan, he loved Michigan football.
I know somewhere up there, he
saw Michigan beat Michigan
State on Saturday and was just
thrilled about that," he said.
While most of his college peers
were unsure about their future
careers, Peter Jaroff said his
father always knew he wanted to
go into journalism, noting that his
trating on seeming presidential,
according to Kall.
Kall added that as a result
of Romney's unwillingness to
engage Obama this debate was
decidedly less contentious and
more substance-filled than the
others.
"(Obama) was really on the
offensive, and aggressive, and
trying to still make up for his
blunders in Denver," Kall said
referring to the first debate in
which Obama's performance was
strongly criticized.
"(Romney) wasn't going to
engage the President. He didn't
employ any zingers. He wanted
to seem presidential and above-
the-fray of regular politics," he
continued.
Despite the relatiyely unevent-
ful nature of the debate, some
moments in the course of the con-
test drew more reaction among

both students and employees,
and whether to grant undoc-
umented residents in-state
tuition.
Bernstein said he fought
against 2006's Proposal 2 -
which banned the use of race in
public university admissions in
Michigan - and vowed to make
diversity a priority by using
geography and socioeconomic
class to increase diversity.
He added he supported in-
state tuition for undocumented
students because forcing high-
performance students to go to
another school on a formality is
a waste for the state and for the
University.
"This should be a place
that welcomes students, and
to exclude applicants simply
because of the misfortune of
their parents ..: is disgraceful,"
Bernstein said.
Diggs said increasing diver-
sity should begin in lqwer lev-
els of school, and admissions
officers must inform students
in middle and high school
what they need to do to be
accepted to the University.
She added that undocu-
mented Michigan taxpayers
deserve to have their children
pay in-state tuition, but noted
that if their parents do not pay
taxes it could complicate the
granting of in-state tuition.
Steele disagreed, say-
ing socioeconomic and geo-
graphic diversity are more
important, and the lack of
diversity at Michigan stems
from high school deficiencies
that should be addressed on a
state level.
"I don't see any general
benefit from the idea of speed-
ing ahead of time or going for
a certain percentage of each
race," Steele said. "We need to
go for quality that is going to
advance the whole society and
have everybody benefit."
He added: "Illegal, undocu-
mented potential students
should not have the same
opportunities as legal, in-state
Michigan residents."
The candidates also differed
in their views of the future size
of the student body.
Berstein said out-of-state
tuition subsidized in-state
students, and general enroll-
ment should be increased "just
a touch" to increase revenue
without decreasing quality.
Steele disagreed, and said
while the best out-of-state stu-
dents must still be recruited,

the University must always be
a place for the best students
from Michigan. He added that
out-of-state students do not
significantly affect revenue
because they also compose a
large portion ,of financial aid
recipients.
Diggs said the proportion of
out-of-state students should
not be increased just to aug-
ment profits and instead sup-
ports exploring other options.
She added that in-state stu-
dents should be given priority
because their parents pay state
taxes.
In closing statements, the
candidates acknowledged that
despite their differences, they
did have common ground on
areas like college affordability
and maintaining the University
as a nationally relevant univer-
sity.
"Sorry, Eric, I'm not a social-
ist, so I'm not going to agree
with you on much, but it was
great to hear that my two pos-
sible members of the board
that we had some places where
can definitely work together,"
Steele said, referring to Bor-
regard.
In an interview after the
forum, Diggs said she thought
the questions touched on the
most important issues, and
noted the importance of reach-
ing out to faculty.
"The faculty interacts with
the students every day, minute-
to-minute - they basically are
the University," Diggs said.
Steele said in an interview
that he was frustrated with
having only one minute to
answer, adding it has been dif-
ficult to get his message across
because the regents election is
overshadowed bythe presiden-
tial competition.
"Whether it's the faculty,
the parents in the U.P., wheth-
er it's the business owners in
the thumb or the high school
teachers in Grand Rapids, we
need to be meeting with all of
these people," he said.
In another interview Bern-
stein said it was important to
talk to faculty because they
are an important part of the
decision-making process at the
University
"Nobody knows this Univer-
sity better than many of the
people in this room and getting
the opportunity to speak about
these issues with this group
of stakeholders is invaluable,"
Bernstein said.

post-earthquake
CARACOL, Haiti (AP) - Sec-
retary of State Hillary Rodham
Clinton encouraged foreigners
to invest in Haiti as she and her
husband Bill led a star-studded
delegation gathered Monday to
inaugurate a new industrial park
at the center of U.S. efforts to help
the country rebuild after the 2010
earthquake.
Actors Sean Penn and Ben Still-
er, fashion designer Donna Karan
and British business magnate
Richard Branson were among
the luminaries at the opening of
the new Caracol Industrial Park,
which is projected to create thou-
sands of jobs more than 100 miles
from the quake-ravaged capital of
Port-au-Prince.
Hillary Rodham Clinton told
a roomful of investors gathered
for a luncheon that she had made
Haiti a priority when she became
secretary of state.
"We had learned that support-
ing long-term prosperity in Haiti
meant more than providing aid,"
she said. "It required investments
in infrastructure and the econo-
my that would help the Haitian
people achieve their own dreams.
"So we shifted our assistance
to investments to address some
of the biggest challenges facing
this country: creating jobs and
sustainable economic growth,"
she added.
Earlier Monday, thousands
of Haitians lined the roadway
to wave at her motorcade as it

wound its way from the newly
renovated airport in the seaside
city of Cap-Haitien. Clinton and
other U.S. officials, including
Labor Secretary Hilda Solis and
Sen. Patrick Leahy, a Democrat
from Vermont, toured a housing
development for industrial park
workers supported by the U.S.
Agency for International Devel-
opment.
The secretary of state noted
there were three presidents gath-
ered in one room to celebrate the
opening: her husband, former
U.S. President Bill Clinton, cur-
rent Haitian President Michel
Martelly and his predecessor,
Rene Preval.
Bill Clinton, now a U.N. special
envoy for Haiti, arrived in Cara-
col separately from his wife.
The Clintons and their allies
hope that the $300 million indus-
trial facility will transform the
northern part of this impover-
ished country by providing thou-
sands of desperately needed jobs.
But some Haitians say the
industrial park does little more
than replicate failed efforts from
the past and will benefit outsid-
ers more than Haitians. They
also worry it will harm some of
the few pieces of undamaged
environment that still exist in
Haiti.
"It's really all-in on this proj-
ect, and there's a high bar to
deliver," said Laurent Dubois, a
historian who teaches at Duke
University and is author of
"Haiti: The Aftershocks of His-
tory.""It really needs to deliver
in a big way so that people will
think, yeah, this was the right
thing to do."
The stakes are high in large
part because the Clintons have
been so heavily involved.
