michigandaily.com Ann Arbor, Michigan Thursday, September 17, 2015 CELEBRATING OUR ONE-HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FIFTH YEAR OF EDITORIAL FREEDOM » INSIDE Renovation concludes multi-year initiative to update housing on campus By EMMA KINERY Daily Staff Reporter Shuttered for renovations over the last year, the West Quadran- gle Residence Hall held an official reopening ceremony Wednes- day afternoon — with University President Mark Schlissel and E. Royster Harper, vice president of student life, helping cut the blue ribbon. When Schlissel addressed the crowd, he marveled at the hall’s renovated features. “Man, I’m jealous,” he said. West Quad’s opening marks the latest in a series of projects launched a decade ago to improve housing on campus. West Quad is now the eighth residence hall to receive renovations through the multi-million dollar Residential Life Initiative launched by former University President Mary Sue Coleman in 2004. The initiative also initiated the construction of North Quad as well as dining cen- ters on Central Campus and in the Hill campus neighborhood. At Wednesday’s opening cere- mony, University officials praised the designers, architects, housing staff, contractors and engineers for their work on the renova- tion, which focused on upgrad- ing the building technologically and improving spaces dedicated to diversity and inclusion, while keeping the historic feel of the hall. West Quad was originally con- structed in 1937 and was funded by the Works Progress Adminis- tration of President Roosevelt’s New Deal program. Harper said it was important to University administration to maintain the building’s original look. “When we started these ren- ovations almost a decade ago New model aims to tailor resources to individual schools, reach more students By GENEVIEVE HUMMER Daily Staff Reporter The University’s Counseling and Psychological Services is increasingly embedding counsel- ors in individual schools and col- leges — and the office reports the initiative is working. CAPS Director Dr. Todd Sevig said the “embedded model,” originally piloted through simi- lar services at Northwestern University and the University of Iowa, was launched last year in response to a growing number of students seeking mental health services. The CAPS 2014-2015 annual report said the office experi- enced a 17 percent increase in demand for services during the 2014-2015 academic year. “Our goal is to increase sup- port, but not just to increase by doing the same old thing,” Sevig said. “We really wanted to grow in this new way, and that new way is a direct, local service delivery, local meeting within that particular place. And it also meets the needs of the schools and colleges.” Sevig said the ability to tailor resources to a specific school or college’s culture is part of what makes the embedded model so successful. “It’s the combination of these two things: it’s the ability to tai- lor, but then those decisions are from a staff member who knows intimately the culture of that place and has worked with stu- dents from that particular place, has worked with faculty from that particular place,” he said. The first phase of the model, launched in July 2014, assigned three counselors to the four North Campus schools and col- leges — Art & Design, Architec- ture and Urban Planning, Music, Doctors say initiative will likely expand to other transplant types By TOM MCBRIEN Daily Staff Reporter Amputees who have lost their hands may now have the chance to write, use a telephone and grasp objects again, thanks to a new transplant program at the University of Michigan Health System. The procedure, referred to as a “vascular composite allograft transplantation,” involves reat- taching multiple types of tis- sue such as fat, skin, muscle and nerve cells. Patients accepted into the program will receive hands from recently deceased donors. The surgery is intense. It requires a team of 10 to 30 doc- tors depending on the complex- ity of each individual case, and it lasts eight to 12 hours — com- pared to an average of four hours for a heart transplant. John Magee, transplant sur- geon and director of the Trans- plant Center, said UMHS is well-positioned to offer the sur- gery. “The University of Michi- gan re-attaches more limbs per week than most people would think,” Magee said. “The hand effort builds upon a great deal of strength we already have, and the other efforts will build upon the successes we see with hand transplants.” The University already received approval to expand the program in the future, meaning it could soon be performing other VCA surgeries such as face trans- plants. According to Magee, how- ever, those won’t come until after the program is comfortable with hand transplants. “A central issue, of course, is making sure we are successful and that we go about this in a Deli CEO’s model draws lessons from anarchist pamphlets, activists By JULIA LISS Daily Staff Reporter With 33 years under his belt as the CEO of Zingerman’s Deli- catessen and the Zingerman’s Community of Businesses, Ari Weinzweig, the deli’s co-found- er, shared his unique approach to business with about 45 Ann Arbor community members on Wednesday night. The event, held in the Hatch- er Graduate Library, was part of the Zingerman’s ZingTrain series, in which Weinzweig teaches his business philosophy to companies and organizations. Wednesday’s talk focused on the connections between anarchism and creative business models. The concept promotes sev- eral tenets, including a focus on reducing hierarchy, bringing out the best in every member of the organization and teach- ing everyone to lead. He also emphasized encouraging an environment characterized by openness and positivity. “You can’t have a healthy business in an unhealthy eco- system,” he said. Weinzweig outlined the several core beliefs he uses to run his business. He noted the importance of giving people the freedom to innovate and do good, rather than telling them what to do.

Aaron Kall, director of the University’s debate program, said though a question on man- ufacturing made a brief appear- ance in the earlier JV debate, the prime time show was dic- tated by current events like the Iran Deal and the Syrian refu- gee crisis. However, Kall said the dis- cussion could circle back to top- ics like higher education and See CAPS, Page 3A See DORM, Page 3A See GOP, Page 3A See ZINGERMAN’S, Page 3A See TRANSPLANT, Page 3A DAVID SONG/Daily E.
