sharing, which involves real-
time
information
sharing
between the government and
the private sector.
“The amount of information
that
the
private
sector,
a
company
like
Google
or
Amazon,
collects
on
you
every day is staggering,” he
said. “They know more about
you than you could possibly
imagine. The NSA would dream
about having a database like
that.”
However, he noted efforts to
allow cyber sharing, including a
bipartisan bill he worked on in
office, have been unsuccessful
because of citizens’ desires for
privacy.
“Most Americans don’t know
it, but the United States is in a
cyber war, and, by the way, we
are not winning,” he said. “We
are losing this fight because
we cannot get over this privacy
versus security hangover.”
Camp also spoke about his
legislative work, calling for
reform in a different realm
— taxes. In particular, he
pointed to the need to change
international tax laws.
“We really do have to make a
change here,” Camp said. “Our
business tax was changed in
‘86 under President Reagan,
but our international tax laws
basically date back to the 60s.
Clearly the ability for ideas,
people and money to move
around the world have changed
dramatically since that time.”
In addition to changes due to
technology, Camp also pointed
to a disconnect between the
electorate and the U.S. economy.
“I don’t think we’ve seen the
end of it,” Camp said. “I think
part of the reason tax reform is
being presented is there is this
tremendous unhappiness with
what is going on in the country,
in particular Congress’s lack
of response, and part of it is
that we haven’t seen the kind
of recovery that we wanted to
see.”
Both also spoke to the future
of Congress overall, citing a
need for changes in how the
body functions.
Camp
said
he
thought
congressional committees need
to work on creating groundwork
for larger, more controversial
issues.
“I think that issues have
to be developed. They have
get back to work and propose
things that might cause some
controversy,” Camp said. “It’s
not glamorous, but it’s the work
that legislatures do. We have to
get back to that and then have
ways to bring them to the floor.”
Rogers
said
the
current
gridlock reflects the frustration
in the United States toward the
country’s lack of progress, and
that the body needs to find a
way to compromise to move
forward.
“Congress
is
a
lot
like
American,” he said. “We are
sending those people there,
and they are reflecting their
districts in a pretty important
way. That dysfunction is exactly
what voters are like. They
are frustrated about different
things for different reasons and
we are not telling legislatures
to go and try and bridge the
difference. We are telling them
to go up there and fight and
stand their ground and don’t
agree to anything, and that gets
us to a place where we do not
function.”

UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI
System president resigns
WEDNESDAY:
In Other Ivory Towers
Two key administrators at
the University of Missouri have
resigned following a series of cam-
pus protests.
Tim Wolfe, University of Mis-
souri System president, resigned,
effective immediately Monday
morning, The Maneater reported.
Chancellor R. Bowin Loftin also
announced his resignation, effec-
tive Jan. 1, during a University of
Missouri System Board of Cura-
tors meeting Monday evening.
Both resignations come amid a
series of instances on campus that
activists cited as evidence of a cul-
ture of discrimination, such as the
end of Planned Parenthood ser-
vices and the student government
president being called a racial slur.
In response to those instances,
Missouri graduate student Jona-
than Butler announced Nov. 2 he
was going on a hunger strike that
he said would end either with
his death or the ousting of Wolfe.
Members of the Missouri football
team announced Saturday that
they would boycott all football-
related activities until the end of
Butler’s hunger strike, with the
support of head football coach
Gary Pinkel.
“My decision to resign comes
out of love, not hate,” Wolfe said
during Monday’s meeting. “Use
my resignation to heal and start
talking again, to make the changes
necessary.”
Fraternity files $25 million
lawsuit against Rolling Stone
The University of Virginia’s
chapter of Phi Kappa Psi, the main
subject of a 2014 Rolling Stone
article that detailed an alleged
gang rape at their fraternity
house, filed a $25 million lawsuit
against the magazine and the sto-
ry’s author Monday.
The Cavalier Daily reported
Monday that the lawsuit is based
primarily on alleged defamation
in the article, as well as subse-
quent public statements from the
magazine and the reporter who
wrote the story, Sabrina Erdely.
Erdely’s article was retracted
in April following discrepancies
in the story uncovered by both the
Charlottesville Police, the Wash-
ington Post and the Columbia
School of Journalism.

by

2016,
a
written
commitment by the Faculty
Senate regarding a new course
evaluation instrument by fall of
2016 and for the CSG executive
committee to be given access to
the content of course evaluations
before an official release.
CSG
Communications
Director Alexandra George, a
Public Policy junior, said CSG is
privy to the information about
course evaluations through one-
on-one meetings with members
of the Faculty Senate.
“We have a timeline for the
release of course evaluations,
and we are willing to do
whatever it takes to make sure
that deadline is met,” George
said.
George said CSG felt its efforts
regarding
course
evaluations
are not finished, and noted that
the ability to review the results
further would make them more
equipped to make suggestions
for improving the instrument
and the questions asked.
“For
Central
Student
Government to have course
evaluation data at our disposal,
we not only gain the ability to
utilize a system of checks and
balances, but we can further
our agenda to improve the
instrument itself,” George said.
Along
with
course
evaluations, Charlton also said
CSG is working with LSA Dean
Andrew Martin to examine
accommodations for students
who require additional time
during exams.
CSG vetoes sanctuary campus
resolution
The
assembly
vetoed
a
resolution
to
make
the
University a sanctuary campus
for undocumented students. The
resolution was promoted by the
activist group By Any Means
Necessary.
Nine assembly members voted
in favor, 10 were opposed and 12
abstained from the vote.
The distinction would have
meant
that
the
University
would promise not to turn
over
undocumented
students
to U.S. Immigrations Control
and Enforcement, a pledge that
has been taken up by several
campuses and cities across the
country, including Ann Arbor.
Before the assembly voted on
the resolution, two amendments
were allowed on the floor for
voting, one written by BAMN
and the other put forth by the
Resolutions Committee.
The Resolutions Committee
proposal aimed to clean up
language in the amendment and
remove words such as “racism”
and “bigotry” to characterize
the
University’s
opinion
on
undocumented students.
BAMN noted that they sat
down
with
the
Resolutions
Committee
to
craft
an
amendment to their resolution,
which is what they said they
presented Tuesday, but CSG
drafted their own resolution
anyway.
Funding requests
CSG
also
considered
resolutions regarding how to
spend the remaining $18,000
of its legislative fund, which is
the amount the CSG budget sets
aside for its own projects.
CSG began the year with
$28,000 to be allocated at the
discretion of the assembly.
Currently, the only initiative
that has been funded was an
initiative to open dining halls
earlier on game days, for which
CSG
gave
Michigan
Dining
$10,000. The aim of the program
is to curb dangerous drinking on
these days. There is $18,000 left
in the fund.
The
Maize
and
Blue
Cupboard, a food bank program
for University students, was the
first funding request heard at
Tuesday’s meeting.
The Maize and Blue Cupboard
operates under Enactus, an
entrepreneurial
organization
founded at the University. The
cupboard takes unsold food
from local grocery stores that
would have been thrown away
and distributes it to students
at the Michigan Union one
Wednesday per month.
The request asked CSG to
pay a $650 application fee for
the program to register as a
nonprofit as well as $350 for the
creation of a stockpile of canned
goods for distribution.
Public Policy junior Matt
Fidel,
a
co-author
of
the
resolution, said there were no
downsides to CSG involvement
in the project.
“It’s an ideal role for CSG,”
Fidel said. “We can reach a
greater number of students.”
Business
sophomore
Zoe
Hawtof , current president of
the program, said the Maize
and Blue Cupboard is like a
second kitchen for students on
campus who are unable to travel
to Kroger or afford the prices of
closer grocery stores.
“We want to be that extra
monthly
go-to
place
when
a student feels like they’re
struggling,” Hawtof said.
A second funding request
for 15 additional water refill
stations around the University
was also put forward Tuesday,
totalling to $7,500.
Resolution authors said the
request was an effort to satisfy
sustainability
initiatives
on
campus by encouraging the use
of refillable water bottles and
lower waste from plastic water
bottles.
Business
senior
Kevin
Ziegler, CSG treasurer, said
Barbara Hagan, a representative
from the Office of Campus
Sustainability, approached CSG
about the project.
“There’s really two costs
— the cost of the unit and the
cost of installation,” Ziegler
said, “We’re just paying for the
units.”
Ziegler added that he’d like to
hear from students where they
believe the stations should be
placed.
Rackham
student
Jared
Ferguson, CSG rules committee
chair, noted that CSG has funded
similar initiatives in past years.
In 2010, he said, CSG funded 18
water refill stations.
“We’ve sort of been doing this
off and on for the last several
years,” Ferguson said.
Ziegler
said
the
stations
would be on both Central and
North Campus to be accessible
for all students.
DPSS relations
CSG
representative
David
Schafer, an LSA junior, said he
has been talking with Bryan
Baker, the Department of Public
Safety and Security liaison to
Student Life, about creating
online profiles on the University
police officers.
He said he hoped the initiative
would
help
better
relations
between DPSS and students.
