Thursday, June 20, 2013 6 N The Michigan Daily - michigandaily.com SOLAR From Page 1 Among the challenges that the car's engineers faced was accounting for a sweeping set of regulations recently set forth by the competition. This year, competing cars have been required to add a fourth wheel, place the driver in an upright position and incorporate a greater field of vision. "Those were sort of the three big challenges thrown at us," Goldstein said. "From there we just tried a whole bunch of different concepts and we believe that the one we have now is sort of the best concept for tackling those challenges." In terms, of speed and efficiency, spectators will likely not notice much of a difference from last year's Quantum model, with the updates instead focused on incorporating these new regulations. "Having that fourth wheel is a big big difference," Goldstein said. "It would normally make it slower... (but) we believe this concept is going to compensate for those changes as best as possible." Despite the extra challenges, Goldstein said the crew feels extremely confident going into the race. The University's Solar Car Team has won the past seven national championships as well as achieving five top three finishes in Australia. There are mixed feelings among creators and investors about the future implications of the solar car.

Goldstein said the team's main focus remains on creating a highly efficient and innovative vehicle that willbeinternationally competitive in the world of science and engineering as opposed to turning those ideas into everyday technology. However both Taylor and Lauckner expressed excitement over the way the innovation that is being explored can become applicable. "We're now trying to help companies around the world try to solve really complicated technical challenges around the topic of mobility," Taylor said. "What the U of M team here is doing fits right in to that. We're really looking forward to see ... what we can learn from them in their use of the technology that will help us help our customers." Speaking on behalf of the team at the unveiling, LSA senior Bryan Mazor emphasized the crew's confidence in both their hard work and their technological innovation seen in the finished result. "Like any competitive team we represent something more," Mazor said. "We're going to wear the block M on our chest, we're going to have our sponsors on our car, we're going to be competing (against) the best teams of the world, representing Michigan." REFORM From Page 3 LSA senior SebastianBlake Swae- Shampine, legislative action director for the University's chapter of SSDP, said current drug enforcement was a poor use of resources that could be used for more serious crimes - citing a statistic published by the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, which states that of the $7.5 to $10 billion spent on marijuana cases, about 90 percent were for possession only. Swae said heightened drug enforcement has led to some CURRICULUM From Page 3 Rajesh Mangrulkar, associate dean for medical student education, said the changes were being made in order to keep the program competitive. "The overarching goal here is we want to change the architecture and the content of our program in order to be able to compete," Mangrulkar said. The first component of the new curriculum will establish a "consolidated foundation," he said. In most medical schools, students complete two years of coursework followed by two years in a clinical setting. In contrast, the University plans to condense the two years of coursework and the first year of clinical studies into a two-year period. The new curriculum will also feature professional development. Students will be able to choose from four branches that will help them develop the advanced clinical and scientific skills needed in the medical profession. "It will be rigorous but flexible," Mangrulkar said. "(Students) will be able to monitor their pace of development based on specific assessments and the achievement of milestones." The Medical School will also introduce a "leadership and change management" component "egregious" laws, includingthe state of Michigan's Asset Forfeiture law, which has allowed enforcement officials to seize possessions such as cash and vehicles fromdrug holders. "You don't need to actually be arrested or charged with a crime or tried in order to have your assets be seized," he said. "All you need to do is have that one law enforcement encounter that goes awry." Swae said he seesthe conversation on drugs as "sobering" because more people have realized that current drug laws are problematic. He believed marijuana could easily become a legalized substance - like alcohol and tobacco - which could then be regulated and taxed. into its curriculum that would help students garner skills required for leading healthcare teams. Mangrulkar said "health equality," "bioethics" and "quality and safety" were possible examples of this component. Students would then choose to focus on one "path of excellence." Perhaps the largest change to the University's Medical School curriculum is M-Home, a longitudinal, clinical and educational learning community assigned to students in their first year and until the end of their training. By connecting students, Mangrulkar said a team of faculty, instructors and advisors would help student development. "Imagine drawing basic sciences and clinical sciences from the foundation into all group settings for discussion," he said. "(Imagine) drawing reflections about their leadership and change management experiences with each other in a small group setting." The actual shift to the new curriculum will start in August 2015, but there is noset date when the University is going to "flip the switch" on the new program. "I think it's absolutely transformative what we're doing here," Mangrulkar said. "When you compare us to the other schools that were funded ... I think ours is probably proposing the broadest change across the curriculum." Thursday, June 20, 2013 The Michigan Daily - michigandaily.com INE j ADVERTISEMENT You deserve a factual look at... Israel: A Light unto the Nations Those who demonize Israel are either nilsinformed or malevolent If that proverbial man from Mars came to visit and read the world's newspapers, especially those in the Arab and Muslim world, he would be convinced that Israel was the most evil nation in the world and the source of all of the world's strife. What are the facts? is so ridiculous, so preposterous, it is hard to believe A nation to be emulated. The reality, of course, is that serious people can countenance it. The exact that Israel is a nation, a society, that should be opposite is the case. Israel is the only country in its admired and emulated by many countries in the benighted neighborhood in which people of all colors world. The very fact of how the State of Israel came and religions prosper and have equal rights. Israel, into being is one of the most inspiring in history. expending substantial effort, rescued tens of Born out of the ashes of the Holocaust, it has thousands of black Jews from Ethiopia.

Instead of being grateful to the hated privileges as their Jewish fellows. They are Jews for having totally withdrawn, the Palestinian represented in the Knesset, Israel's parliament, and Gazans showed their "gratitude" by almost daily are members of its bureaucracy, of its judiciary, and pounding of Israeli towns with thousands of rockets of its diplomatic service. and bombs.

Gays and lesbians are Israel is not an "apartheid state." Another familiar totally unmolested in Israel; in the surrounding tack of Israel's vilifiers is to call it an "apartheid Muslim countries they would be subjected to the state," on the model of former South Africa. But that death penalty. In spite of demonization and vilification by so much of the world, Israel is indeed a Light unto the Nations. The State of Israel is the foremost creation of the Jewish enterprise and Jewish intellect that has benefited every country in which Jews dwell, certainly our own country, the United States of America. Second only to the United States itself, Israel is the world's most important factor in science and technology, way out of proportion to the small size of its population. Israeli Jews are at the forefront of the arts, the sciences, law and medicine. They have brought all these sterling qualities to bear in building their own country: Israel. By necessity, they have also become outstanding in agriculture and, most surprisingly, in the military. What a shame that the Arabs opted not to participate in this progress and in this prosperity and chose instead the path of revenge, of Jihad and of martyrdom.
