Coalition fighting ISIS bombs t U.S. leads charge in aerial attacks against Islamic State MURSITPINAR, Turkey (AP) - The U.S.-led coalition intensi- fied its aerial bombardment of Islamic State positions Thurs- day in the Syrian border town of Kobani as the extremist group fought street battles with Kurdish forces and reportedly rushed in reinforcements. The battle for the town near the frontier with Turkey has emerged as a major early test for the air campaign aimed at rolling back and eventually destroying the extremist group. It has also strained ties between Washington and Ankara over the long-term U.S. strategy in Syria. On Thursday, the U.S. special envoy for the coalition, retired Marine Gen.

LSA SG 'hosts. event to hear student concerns officials in Ankara and requested anonymity. The fight for Kobani has brought Syria's civil war yet again to Turkey's doorstep, and for weeks the U.S. and its allies have pressed Ankara to take a more robust role in the coalition. In addition, Kurds have held massive demonstrations across Turkey in which they accuse the government, which has deployed its tanks just across the fron- tier, of doing nothing to save the town. Ankara is suspicious of the Syrian Kurdish forces fighting in Kobani, seeing them as an exten- sion of the Kurdish PKK, which waged a long and bloody insur- gency against Turkey. Responding to the criticism, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said it was unrealis- tic to expect Turkey to launch a ground war against the Islamic State group on its own. Diag Day seeks to provide avenue for student needs to be addressed on campus By ALYSSA BRANDON Daily StaffReporter LSA Student Government held their annual "Diag Day" Thursday to give students an opportunity to voice their con- cerns about the University. Representatives from LSA SG set up a station on the Diag at which students were able to submit written complaints and express concerns to representa- tives that they would like to see addressed. LSA freshman Caitlin Stew- art, an SG representative, worked at the event and heard a wide variety of complaints from students. "We've heard everything from getting more silverware in some of the dining halls to hav- ing a girls-only section in the, CCRB," Stewart said. "We've also heard complaints that the Fish Bowl is too cold." The Student Life Committee is responsible for addressing the various concerns students voice at the University. Public Poli- cy junior Hilary Forrest, SLC chairwoman, said LSA SG start- ed holding Diag Day five years ago after working to gather all the complaints they received from LSA. "It started with the creation of the e-mail account This- Sucks@umich.edu, where stu- dents could send emails about things they didn't like so much here at the University," Forrest said. From there, Diag Day was created to further publicize the creation of the e-mail account, as well as to give students an opportunity to discuss their concerns in person. Based on the comments LSA SG received Thursday, For- rest said students seemed to be concerned about the condition of the facilities at the Univer- sity, ranging from getting more printers in the UGLi, to having more bike racks installed around campus. Committee members already have an idea of how they'll address some of these concerns in the future. "We plan to serve as a liai- son for the students, and to work to set up meetings with appropriate administration to bring these concerns to their attention," Forrest said. "For instance, regarding having more printers in the UGLi, we'll work with ITS to see what we can do to get more printers for students." The Student Life Commit- tee also plans to meet Oct. 14 to read through all the concerns they received in detail and develop a plan to address them. Overall, Forrest said ' the committee hopes that Diag Day and the promotion of the eamail account will let students know they have a forum they can use to safely express their opinions. "We want "students to know that they have an outlet they can use to voice their concerns, and that they have a committee that is working hard to make sure they can maximize their college experiences."
