Goldenberg is the founding director of the Mich- igan in Washington Program, which is in its eighth year. What attracted you to political science? As a sophomore, I took a wonderful course that made me switch majors from math to political science. It was an interdisciplinary social science class team-taught by four dis- tinguished senior leaders in a newly established Department of Political Science at MIT. One of them, Ithiel de Sola Pool, became my adviser, and my interest in the field just kept growing. Michigan's Political Science Department is one of the very best in the world. Being part of it has only enhanced my interest in the field. Ever since coming to Ann Arbor, I have been involved in both Political Science and the Ford School. What is your role as the direc- tor of the Michigan in Wash- ington program? I am responsible for pro- gram design, requirements, and evaluation; curriculum; student recruitment, selection, preparation and recognitions; faculty and staff selection and evaluation; program budget, including student scholarships, fundraising and development of opportunities for program enrichment. All of this requires teamwork and we have a great program team, including staff in Ann Arbor and in Washington, D.C., a faculty advisory committee, an advisory board in D.C., stu- dent volunteers and program ambassadors, advisors and stu- dent-oriented staff, key faculty and deans in various schools Newsroom 734-418-4115 opt.3 Corrections corections@miehigandaily.com Arts Section arts@michigandaily.com Sports Sectin sports@michigaay.com Display Sales dailydisplay@gmail.com Online Sales onlineads@michigandaiy.com News Tips news@michigandaily.com letters to the Editor totnedaily@michigandaily.com Editorial Page opinion@michigandaily.com Photography Section photo@michigandaiy.com Classified Sales classifed@michigandaily.com Finance finance@michigandaily.com 4 1 wE NICHoLAS WILAMS/Daily Art & Design senior Jordan Barse hangs art for an IP pre-show in the Penny Stamps Building Monday.

Each side Sanogo's spokesman, Lt. ed the other of firing the Mohamed Bou Coulibaly, said hots. the situation was under control Monday afternoon and blamed the unrest on elements close to Col. Youssouf Traore, who has had a strained relationship with Sanogo. Coulibaly said the soldiers accused Col. Mohamed Elhabib Diallo of taking their names off a list of those who were to be promoted. However, another Malian military official said that Diallo had been wounded by gunfire after the angry soldiers took him hostage. The tensions on several fronts underscore the enor- mous challenges for new Mali- an President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita, who took office in Sep- tember after winning the elec- tion in an August runoff. In an acknowledgement of those obstacles, Keita has made rec- onciliation a priority for his new government, even naming a minister responsible for the effort and for developing the north. Talks were to resume between the two sides in Burki- na Faso later this year. How- ever, the rebels accused the government of failing to make good on its promises under the deal. Separatist sentiment remains high in Kidal, and the presence of the Malian soldiers since June has been highly contro- versial. Tuaregs in northern Mali have sought autonomy dating back to the country's indepen- dence from France in 1960. The government has put down sev- eral rebellions over the years, though the one sparked in early 2012 allowed separatists to make their greatest gains to date. After the March 2012 coup in the capital, al-Qaida-linked jihadists also sought to control northern Mali and temporar- ily sidelined the separatist reb- els. After a French-led military intervention ousted the radical Islamic militants from power, though, the NMLA began reas- serting itself in Kidal. 4 4 4 4 4 I
