of gay movement
The gay pride movement has changed significantly since its
early years, gay rights advocates say. "In the beginning, it
was a group I'd say was radical,' said Jim Toy, an advocate
for gay male students in the University's Human Sexuality Of-
fice. Toy was involved in the early days of the movement in
Detroit.

Progress on
new hospital
in great sae
By KATIE WILCOX
Second of a two-part series
The progress of the University's
replacement hospital is cause for a sense of
accomplishment - as early this month, con-
struction of one-third of the main Adult
General building was completed and turned
over to the hospital to prepare for occupancy.
Joseph Diederich, director of the
Replacement Hospital Project, called the
completion a "benchmark date."
"It means we're getting construction done
on time," he said.
THE 11-story million square foot building -
p the main focus of a complex network of new
hospital construction projects - should be
completed by Aug. 30 and ready for occupan-
cy in January.
The structure includes new systems that
will initially require special employee
training. Automated carts - small robot-like
machines, will transport material throughout
the building. A new method of food
preparation will cut costs and preserve taste
by chilling rather than freezing large quan-
tities of food. Diederich said the food will be
"like you'd receive in a hotel, better than
airline food but not yet like a gourmet
restaurant."
