The Michigan Daiy is a member of The Associated Press and The Assocated Coegiate Press i Candidates tout record of campus involvment Bring your own wine law may not entice student diners CSG campaigns seek to capitalize on roots in activism By MICHAEL SUGERMAN Daily StaffReporter FORUM and Make Michigan really aren't that different. While each touts itself as a "movement" rather than a party, their platforms have considerable overlap. Both focus on increasing disersity at the University. mak- ing the campus safer and reform- ing athletics policies --namely seating and ticketing at events - that students have deemed unfa- vorable. While they may agree about the issues that need attention, each Central Student Govern- ment party differs in its sug- gested methods of implementing change. Public Policy junior Carly 5013 Manes, FORUM's presidential candidate and a current LSA rep- resentative on the CSG Assembly, said diversity is the most impor- tant of FORUM's four platform points. "That expands to not only racial diversity, but diversity of thought, diversity of experience. diversity of interaction with the University and how different stu- dents experience Michigan," she said. "It's important to allow for space for all the experiences and improve upon all of those experi- ences." LSA junior Pavitra Abraham, FORUM's vice presidential can- didate who is also a current LSA representative on the CSG Assembly, said accounting for the breadth of individual experienc- es will also be contingent upon increasing students' access to the services CSG has to offer. "We really want to advocate to empower all of those commu- nities on campus and also make 5-m sure that all of those communi- ties are represented at the CSG table," Abraham said. To bring a larger range of diverse voices to the University, FoRUM plans to advocate for financial aid for undocumented students, drive increased recruit- ing and on-site admission in underrepresented communities and reform the Race and Ethnic- ity distribution requirement. Of these objectives, Manes has already begun her work on the 1R&E requirement. She has met with University administrators since October to draft a proposal for a new, more encompassing "identity" requirement, which she and a coalition of students presented to the LSA Curriculum Committee Tuesdaynight for ini- tial comments and suggestions. Public Policy junior Bobby Dishell, the Make Michigan pres- idential candidate and current CSG vice president, said diver- sity relates to another often over- looked issue on campus: mental health. This belief jointly reflects two of Make Michigan's five plat- form pillars: health and diversity. "Mental health is a huge issue here on campus and it kind of hits on all of our points," Dishell said. "Mental health is something that affects all students, and when you are able to be mentally healthy, it also is going to help the racial cli- mate on campus and make people feel safer in general." Dishell and LSA sophomore Meagan Shokar, the Make Michi- gan vice presidential candidate and currentspeaker of the assem- bly, plan to implement a Universi- ty-wide peer support program. The new program would have students register for peer support groups based on mutual availabil- ity Each group would be directed by two seniors and two junior trainees, all of whom would take mandatory Intergroup Relations and University Counseling and Psychological Services training before taking on leadership roles.
