First seen on the game Despite original statement, Trouba unsure of future Ann Arbor, MI ONE-HUNDRED-TWENTY TWO YEARS OF EDITORIAL FREEDOM Weekly Summer Edition - By MATT SLOVIN Daily Sports Editor An Ontario Hockey League source told the Daily on Thursday that Jacob Trouba may not be as set on coming to Ann Arbor in the fall as he has stated publicly. The source, speaking on con- dition of anonymity, placed the chances that Trouba, the ninth pick by Winnipeg in this year's NHL Entry Draft, honors his commitment to Michigan at "50/50." Trouba's OHL rights belong to the Kitchener Rangers who drafted him in the third round of the OHL's 2010 draft. . Regardless of where Trouba ends up, Kitchener or Michigan, the source says the defenseman will spend two years before pro- gressing to the NHL, where he will be an "elite player." Prior to last week's NHL Draft, the source said the odds were stacked heavily in Kitchener's favor. But Trouba's promise that he will be playing for Michigan this season makes it a coin flip. Trouba, skating for the United States National Team Devel- opment Program in 2011-12, recorded the nation's first goal of the world championships in the Czech Republic. In the United States Hockey League, he skated in 50 games, scoring nine goals and recording 22 assists.

Obama'sAffordable CareActupheld Miller aims to lead social media platform across nation's universities By ADAM RUBENFIRE Daily News Editor Four months after the University hired Social Media Director Jor- dan Miller, she's launched what is thought to be a one-of-a-kind social media platform among American universities. Miller recently launched @ UmichStudents, a Twitter account that will be hosted by a new Uni- versity student every week. With @UmichStudents, Miller wanted to ensure not only that the administration's message was injected into the Twitterverse, but also that of the University's stu- dents. "We exist for our students and because of our students, and we need to give our students avoice the same way that we do (administra- tors)," Miller said. "You shouldn't hear only from the administration - you should hear right from the students." Miller said the idea for the account was hatched from a meet- ing between Lisa Rudgers, the Uni- versity's vice president for global communications and strategic initiatives; several Twitter execu- tives including Twitter CEO Dick Costolo, who is a University alum, and herself. Though administrators expressed no problems with the idea, Miller said some Twitter users were concerned that giving students an open microphone could lead to image problems for the Uni- versity, similar to issues the Swed- ish government had with its similar- @sweden account. Miller emphasized that the account is intended for students to have the freedom to tweet about their experiences at Michigan but acknowledged that it will be moni- tored for inappropriate or profane tweets. "I don't know why we have this assumption that we're going to put. them on a pulpit and they're going to do foolish things," Miller said. "I think (with) our students, you put them on a pulpit and they really say great things." Miller's inaugural Tweeter on @UmichStudents was her summer intern, LSA senior Taylor Davis. Davis said that it was exciting to be the first user on the account. She added that it was empowering to be able to engage with followers about the University and echoed Miller's See @UMICHSTUDENTS, Page 2 Supreme Court votes in favor of health care reform By JACOB AXELRAD 1 Editor in Chief + June 28's landmark decision to i uphold President Obama's 2010 ; Affordable Care Act ensured stu-1 dents won't need to worry about health care coverage in their first job out of college - they can now + remain on their parents' plans until the age of 26, as specified by the law.1 V .X 05 . 14 20 ai12Th1 hMichign Dii2y NEWS ...................................2 OPINION ...............................4 CLASSIFIEDS......................... 6 AROS.W. ......... 6 ARTS ......................................8 In a statement issued last Wednesday, Ora Pescovitz, the University's executive vice presi- dent for medical affairs, said the University's health system must now "move forward" as it con- tinues to make health care more cost-efficient for students. "We look forward to working in partnership with the federal government and local partners to create a better national health care system," Pescovitz said.

The ruling upheld the con- stitutionality of the individual mandate, "which requires most Americans to maintain 'minimum essential' health insurance cover- age." The law says that Americans who do not have health coverage by 2014 will have to pay a penalty. A journal entry by Evan Camink- er, the dean of the University's law school, was also cited in the Supreme Court's decision. Another provision the Supreme Court ruled on is the expansion of Medicaid.
