Shapiro kicks off fundraising
HOMECOMING E- R ADE
Then-University
Presi-
dent Harold Shapiro, the
namesake for the Shapiro
Undergraduate
Library,
launched a $160 million fun-
draising drive in his State of
the University address at
Rackham Auditorium.
This initiative was part
of a plan he announced to
reduce the size of the Uni-
versity, yet retain its qual-
ity.
“We are focused on two
primary — and complemen-
tary — goals: to increase our
endowment for faculty sup-
port and student financial
aid, and to fund select new
construction projects,” Sha-
piro said.
Some of the money raised
in the campaign was used to
erect a new chemistry build-
ing and make improvements
at the Business School.
Study finds fraternity
and sorority members
experience discrimina-
tion (56 years ago: Oct.
14, 1959)
According to responses
to questionnaires sent to
students
at
universities
with more than nine frater-
nities or sororities, students
at more than 75 percent
of
campuses
surveyed
observed either written or
unwritten
discriminatory
practices.
Sixty-three
universities
responded to the study, of
which 50 admitted at least
one of their fraternities or
sororities pursues discrimi-
natory membership policies.
At 25 of those 50 colleges,
the fraternities or sororities
were forced to pursue such
policies by their national
organizations.
In many cases, members
of groups often subject
to
discrimination
either
did not apply or were not
accepted
to
fraternities
or sororities, avoiding the
problem entirely.

The Michigan men’s soccer
team fell to Rutgers 1-0 in
overtime Saturday. Michigan
Coach Chaka Daley noted
that the team’s recent string
of
overtime
matches
may
have led to fatigue later in
Saturday’s game, adding that
Rutgers “did what they had to
do. They got the goal and we
didn’t.”
SPORTS
NY Philharmonic plays with
Marching Band at halftime
SAE tradition
continues despite
University efforts
to cancel event
By RIYAH BASHA
For the Daily
Shin-deep in mud, former
members of the now-disbanded
Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity
hosted their 82nd annual Mud
Bowl game on Saturday morning,
despite University efforts to can-
cel the event.
Two teams of about 20 people
played a game of two-hand touch
football in an expansive mud pit
constructed in front of the for-
mer SAE house at South Univer-
sity and Washtenaw avenues.
Though the final tally hasn’t
been calculated, the charity
touch-football game raised over
$8,000 for C.S. Mott’s Children’s
Hospital. Public Policy junior
Zach Dubin, a former SAE mem-
ber who helped organize the
event, said about 2,000 T-shirts
were sold for the event and
almost $7,000 was raised on the
Mud Bowl’s GoFundMe page.
Though planning for this
year’s game was complicated by
SAE’s status as a rogue fraternity,
hundreds of students and alumni
surrounded the muddy field to
cheer. Dubin estimated the num-
ber could have been more than a
thousand, with people covering
the lawn and spilling onto the
sidewalk.
Earlier this year, fraternity
and sorority members were
warned by the Interfraternity
Council not to participate in the
event, since SAE is no longer
recognized by the University
or its national chapter. The IFC
expelled the fraternity in 2011
due to reports of hazing. Because
Greek life members were told not
to participate in the event, play-
ers took the field identifying not
as Greek life members, but as
individual students.
Durbin said the University’s
decision to enforce these restric-
tions may have actually benefited
the Mud Bowl in terms of boost-
ing attendance and interest.
However, he said donations were
lost once fraternity organizations
were barred from participating
in the event.
“As for next year, I doubt the
University will back offtheir
stance, but I really hope they
reconsider to let all students,
regardless of Greek or non-Greek
affiliation, participate in what
should be an event for everyone
in the Michigan community to
enjoy,” he said.
The team composed of for-
mer SAE members, nicknamed
the Flying Eagles, defeated their
opponents — a team made up of
participants from a variety of
groups — 24-10.
“It felt pretty amazing,” said
LSA sophomore Jake Harris,
despite hailing from the losing
team. “Physically, I feel actually
great, and even though we lost,
it was just about going out there
and having fun with the tradi-
tion.”

82nd annual Mud Bowl yields
$8,000 for C.S. Mott hospital
Performance
marks beginning of
orchestra’s five-year
residency at the ‘U’
By KATIE PENROD
Daily Staff Reporter
Michigan football’s shutout
against
Northwestern
wasn’t
the only memorable event to
take place on the field at the Big
House on Saturday.
The New York Philharmonic
Orchestra took the field along-
side the Michigan Marching
Band and the School of Music,
Theatre & Dance brass studios to
perform a variety of songs.
And for this collaboration, it’s
only the beginning: the famous
symphony orchestra will now
begin a five-year long residency
in Ann Arbor.
John
Pasquale,
associate
director of bands at the Uni-
versity, wrote in an e-mail that
the halftime show marks the
start of a multi-year partnership
between the New York Philhar-
monic and the University. The
symphony orchestra’s residency
in Ann Arbor will include mas-
terclasses, lectures and perfor-
mances.
The residency will include
lectures,
performances
and
other educational opportuni-
ties for students. The University
Musical Society will also bring
three different orchestras to the
University each year in addition
to the New York Philharmonic.
LSA senior Emily Jablonski, a
member of the marching band,
said the group practiced Friday
night with the New York Phil-
harmonic and the brass studio,
and said she enjoyed learning
from the New York Philharmon-
ic’s director, who conducted
several pieces during the perfor-
mance.
“It’s hard to describe,” she
said. “It was, in my experience,
the most exciting show that I’ve
ever participated in. During the
last piece that we were playing I
was smiling so big it was almost
hard to play my instrument. To
hear all of us playing at the same
time almost made me emotional.
The sound of all of us playing
together — it worked out so well
and the New York Phil are such
prolific players and it was amaz-
ing.”
LSA senior Matt Cloutier, the
band’s drum major, said Friday’s
rehearsal was especially spirited
because it was the first time the
band experienced playing with
the New York Philharmonic.
“We’d been practicing the
show for the week, however, we
didn’t practice with the New
York Phil until Friday night.” he
said. “We did a dress rehearsal
before that was actually an
open rehearsal so some people
got to come in and watch. They
were super excited to be there
and we were super excited to
have them there, so it was defi-
nitely high energy. They were
absolutely incredible and their
director, Alan Gilbert, he was
fantastic.”
Though the halftime show
consisted of a variety of songs,
both Jablonski and Cloutier said
the finale stood out most for
them.
Pasquale wrote that watching
the students perform not only
with the New York Philharmon-
ic, but with the alumni band, the
brass studios and chorale was an
experience he won’t forget.
“The students’ reaction is why
we teach — seeing their faces
as they were playing is a high-
light of my career thus far,” he
wrote. “The (Michigan March-
ing Band’s) performance was
fantastic and we are so proud of
them. What they accomplished
is testament that Michigan has
the best and brightest students
in the world. It was a great day
for the School of Music, Theatre
& Dance and Michigan Athlet-
ics. It was a great day for the
legacy, tradition and spirit of
Michigan.”
