County Circuit Judge to direct Dearborn program Student duo places second in national debate contest Shelton leaves bench for role in criminal justice program By SHOHAM GEVA Daily StaffReporter After 24 years of service, Washtenaw County Circuit Court Judge Donald Shelton announced Tuesday that he will step down in four months early to take a position at the University of Michigan-Dearborn campus. Shelton will be the new director of Dearborn's criminal justice program and an associate professor starting in the Fall 2014 term. Shelton's term as judge was set to expire Jan. 1, 2015 but will now end Sep. 1, 2014. In an interview Wednesday, Shelton said stepping down wasn't an easy decision, with or without the last four months of his term. H-S "Leaving the bench is always a difficult decision, like leaving anything else you've done for almost a quarter of a century," Shelton said. "But frankly, four months difference doesn't change any of those feelings. I've enjoyed being a judge, but I've been preparing for and looking forward to being a teacher for a long time." Shelton has previously held positions as an adjunct professor in several fields, including criminology and politicalscience, at Eastern Michigan University and Cooley Law School. He also served on Eastern Michigan's Board of Regents from 1987 to 1990 and was the mayor of Saline from 1978 to 1986. As the director of the criminal justice program, Shelton said his plan for his first semester is to learn as much as he can. "One of the things I learned a long time ago is that when you come into a new program 5-M the first thing you should do is be a sponge and keep quiet and listen," Shelton said. "That's my first objective for the first semester I'm there." After that, he said he'd like to increase focus on forensic science, which is his area of research specialty. Barry Pyle, a political science professor at Eastern Michigan University, said Shelton has pro- vided valuable contributions to the department at EMU as an adjunct professor and is quali- fied for a full time academic position. "Judge Shelton has opened up his chambers to a number of our students to work closely with him while he was a judge to give them hands on experience," Pyle said. "He was able to take a lot of his real life experience into the classroom here on campus and give students a realistic view of what it's like to be in a circuit court dealing with drugs, and crime, and family law issues." This term would have been Shelton's last as a judge even if he hadn't chosen to accept the Dearborn position. Michigan law prevents individuals at or over the age of 70 from being elected or appointed to a judicial position. Local lawyers Veronique Liem and Mike Woodyard announced plans earlier this year to run for his seat. Judge Darlene A. O'Brien, who serves alongside Shelton on the court, said that Shelton has been a strong leader and an asset to the citizens of Washtenaw County during his time on the court. "Judge Shelton will be missed, but I'm equally certain that he'll add great value to the University of Michigan-Dearborn's Criminal Justice program," O'Brien said. Republican Gov. Rick Snyder will be responsible for appoint- ing someone to fill the seat for the four months left in Shelton's term after he steps down in Sep- tember. Team records best season finish for University since 1991 By MAYA KALMAN Daily StaffReporter Business junior Ellis Allen and LSA junior Alex Pappas took home the second place title at the 2014 National Debate Tournament on March 31 at Indiana University. Allen and Pappas defeated Harvard University in the semifinals and narrowly lost to Georgetown University in the final round, earning the University second place for the first time since 1991. Aaron Kall, who has served as director of the debate team since 2010, said Pappas and Allen's time commitment and efficiency are what allowed them to come this far. "Work ethic is something that's very important and our debaters spend a lot of time researching- the topic and spending time practicing so I think that's something that really sets us apart," Kall said. Kall said the most dedicated debaters spend 20 to 40 hours each week preparing for debate, while also maintaining high grades as full-time students. The average GPA of the debate team was about 3.75 last semester. Pappas said the team's willingness to work hard and the vast resources the University has to offer were also important in the team's success. "I really think the resources of Michigan are sort of what allows us to excel," he said. "I think my partner and I have just invested so much time and that we're pretty darn good at it." Allen added that the team's success could also be attributed to the initiative of the students on the team. "I think it's one of the more student-driven ones," he said. "There are a lot of teams out there who have phenomenal coaching staffs but everything, all the work we put out is student-motivated here and that also gives us a lot of creative control over what we do." Both Allen and Pappas agreed that success at debate is based on the amount of work you put in, beginning early in the year and continuing throughout. "I think its just preparation, preparation, preparation," Pappas said. "It can be a single piece of' evidence that's the difference between winning and losing." The University has participated in the National Debate Tournament since 1971, winning second place three times, but has never taken home the championship. Nevertheless, Kall is optimistic about next year, given that Pappas and Allen will have the opportunity to build off their success going into their senior season. "They've got a great chance, probably as good a chance as anyone next year to win the national title, to win that final debate, and so we're really looking forward to next year as well," Kall said. Pappas and Allen both said they hope to win the National Debate Championship next year and win the Copeland Award, an award for the top-ranked national team of the year. "Wekindofhopeforthisgreat end of the season," Kall said. "But close defeat just motivates our students to work harder, to spend more time practicing, more time on research, and to kind of get them motivated to just take it to that very next and final level next year to win the national championship." Park declines additional wolves With population dwindling, officials promise new plan TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) - No additional gray wolves will be transplanted to Isle Royale National Park for now, the park's top manager said Wednesday, despite concerns that the Lake Superior island chain's dwin- dling and inbred population might not survive much longer. After consulting with experts and reviewing comments from the public, Isle Royale Superin- tendent Phyllis Green said staff- ers will develop a management plan that considers the wolves' long-term survival prospects and their interactions with moose. The two species' preda- tor-prey relationship is the sub- ject of one of the world's longest scientific studies of its type, now in its S6th year. It will take about three years to craft the plan, which also will focus on park vegetation and the effects of climate change, Green said. Officials could reconsider augmenting the wolf population k if gender imbalance prevents them from reproducing or if moose begin overbrowsing trees and bushes, stripping them of leaves and needles. "As long as there'sa breeding population, we're going to let these animals have a chance to live their lives without us intervening," Green said. Scientists, park officials and wildlife advocates are divided over whether to attempt a rescue of the wolves, a popular attraction for visitors even though most never glimpse the wily creatures. 04
