Public Policy senior Maya
Menlo is Ann Arbor Inter-Coop-
erative Council president and a
board member for North Ameri-
can Students of Cooperation.
What prompted your involve-
ment in a co-op living situa-
tion?
I think that after living in
the dorms and not necessarily
getting the sense of community
that I wanted out of my college
situation. The real reason that I
was ever involved in the co-op
was that I had a friend from a
class of mine, and she asked me
to dinner while she was living
at Gregory House on Washt-
enaw Avenue. There were a lot
of people in a cozy atmosphere.
How long have you lived in
the co-op?
Sophomore year I moved
into Benjamin on Catherine
Street, 2012-2013. I’ve been
there three years now. The
people who live there are
my friends and my family.
How does living in a co-op
differ from traditional dorm
life or living in a fraternity or
sorority house?
Well, the biggest thing about
the co-op is it’s an intentional
community. The shared set
of values has always been key
for me. I think its safe to say
it’s not for everybody, but it is
for a lot of people and differ-
ent types of people, as well.
What responsibilities have
you taken on as president of
your co-op?
There’s a laundry list. The
most visible duties are chair-
ing the board of directors and
the
executive
community,
which we call our coordinat-
ing committee. I also oversee
hiring and firing processes for
our full-time staff. emergency
situations and contract issues.

LSA senior Micah Warschausky chats with a friend and enjoys free food and music during the inaugural LSA Senior
Celebration on Ingalls Mall on Monday.
LSA student government
hosts Senior Celebration
Inaugural event
marks final send
off for graduating
liberal arts students
By ALYSSA BRANDON
Daily Staff Reporter
LSA Student Government cel-
ebrated seniors on Ingalls Mall
Monday morning with free food,
games on the Diag and a speech
by Golden Apple-winning Sta-
tistics Lecturer Brenda Gunder-
son.
Designed to honor graduat-
ing LSA seniors, the event also
provided resources as they tran-
sition into their new roles as
alums. LSA’s marketing depart-
ment also provided resources
detailing how to join the Dean’s
Young Alumni Council and stay
connected to LSA after gradua-
tion.
LSA senior Corey Walsh,
event organizer and former LSA
Student Government vice presi-
dent, said the event was created
to instill the value of liberal arts
degrees in graduating seniors
one last time.
“We just thought it was
important
that
seniors,
as
they’re exiting the University,
have some type of large-scale
capstone event to leave seniors
feeling some sort of unity with
the college of LSA, so that
whenever they graduate they
can become active alumni,” he
said.
The idea for Senior Celebra-
tion began last summer, but all
of the details were put into place
over the past two months.
LSA junior Jason Colella, LSA
Student Government president
said there have been various
attempts to hold a senior cel-
ebration in the past that never
seemed to catch on.
“We are sort of trying to
revive it, restart it, to really fos-
ter a sense of LSA pride,” Colella
said.
He added that other students
tend to feel more attached to
their colleges after graduating,
which he said isn’t necessarily
the case with LSA alumni.
Gunderson said the decision
to present a speech for gradu-
ating LSA seniors was an easy
one.
“Being able to congratulate
them and send them off and tell
them they’re already amazing
and they’ll continue to be, how
could I not have an opportunity
to say that?” she said.
Gunderson said she hopes
graduates realize they won’t be
alone, and that they will have
access to a wide array of alumni
resources.
She
also
emphasized
the
importance of the LSA commu-
nity to the college experience.
“You are not just handed
knowledge,” Gunderson said.
“You work with lots of other
people and created that knowl-
edge.”
Furthermore, she said the
seniors’ LSA educations have
provided various ways to think
and observe the world, which
will enable them to solve com-
plex problems in real-life situ-
ations, no matter where they
go or what career path they
take.
LSA senior Sarah Lopez said
the senior celebration was a
good way to recognize the senior
class’s achievements.
“It’s a nice reward for being a
senior and celebratory prepar-
ing for graduation a few weeks
away,” she said.
Senator touts ‘A
New American
Century’ during
campaign kickoff
MIAMI (AP) — Sen. Marco
Rubio entered the presidential
race Monday by offering the
nation a younger generation of
leadership that breaks free of
ideas “stuck in the 20th century,”
a jab at both Democratic favorite
Hillary Rodham Clinton and his
one-time Republican mentor,
former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.
Standing in front of a banner
that proclaimed “A New Amer-
ican Century” and repeating
that refrain throughout his
kickoff speech, the 43-year-old
Cuban-American used his first
turn as a Republican presiden-
tial candidate to take on two of
America’s political dynasties.
In doing so, he bet heavily on
the
electorate’s
frustrations
with Washington and his abil-
ity to change how his party is
seen by voters.
“This election is not just about
what laws we are going to pass,”
Rubio told his evening rally. “It is
a generational choice about what
kind of country we will be.”
He said it’s also a choice
between the haves and have-
nots, nodding to his own
upbringing by working-class
parents. “I live an exceptional
country where the son of a
bartender and a maid can have
the same dreams and the same
future as those who come from
power and privilege.”
Earlier in the day, the first-
term Republican from Florida
spoke to his top donors and told
them many families feel the
American Dream is slipping
away and young Americans
face
unequal
opportunities.
He’s banking on the hope that
he, alone among many GOP
rivals, can make inroads with
groups that have long eluded
Republicans — young people,
minorities and the less affluent.
“I feel uniquely qualified to
not just make that argument, but
to outline the policies that we
need to have in order to achieve
it,” he said on the donor call.
In his televised speech, he
told supporters, “The time has
come for our generation to lead
the way toward a new American
century.”
Rubio’s remarks came as
Clinton was traveling to Iowa
on her first trip as a candidate.
Her entrance into the race with
an online video Sunday is rob-
bing some attention from Rubio’s
splash into the race.
But Rubio saw an opportuni-
ty to cast the presidential con-
test as one between a fresh face
representing a new generation
of leadership and familiar faces
harking back decades — name-
ly, the 62-year-old Bush and the
67-year-old Clinton.
“While our people and econ-
omy are pushing the boundaries
of the 21st century, too many of
our leaders and their ideas are
stuck in the 20th century,” Rubio
said to applause.
The swipe at Bush was
implied; with Clinton, he was
more direct.
“Just yesterday, a leader from
yesterday began a campaign for
president by promising to take us
back to yesterday,” Rubio said to
jeers. “Yesterday is over and we
are never going back.”
Supporters began lining up
in 87-degree heat three hours
before the public kickoff at
Freedom Tower, the Miami
landmark that was the first stop
for tens of thousands of fleeing
Cuban exiles during the 1960s
and 1970s.
