TENTS & TABLES
CLAIRE ABDO/Daily
Arts Programming Coordinator Graham Hamilton
preps the art gallery in East Quad for the next show
on Monday.
E YE ON ART
The Michigan Daily is
introducing a new rotating item,
Tents and Tables, that seeks to
highlight campus activities on the
Diag and near the posting wall in
Angell Hall.
Camp Kesem held a Chick-
Fil-A fundraiser Monday in front
of the Mason Hall posting wall.
The organization fundraises
throughout the year to send
children whose parents have
cancer to camp during the
summer.
LSA sophomore Katherine
Boss, a development coordinator
at Camp Kesem, said the
organization tries to fundraise
to send as many kids as they can
to camp.
“Obviously the kids are
affected by (their parent’s cancer)
and so we fundraise for them all
year to send them to camp for
free so it’s not a financial burden
on the family, so we can get as
many kids as possible,” Boss said.
Boss said each counselor at
Camp Kesem has to raise $500,
which makes the organization’s
overall fundraising goal
about $110,000. She said the
organization has thus far raised a
little over half of that money.
Volunteers drove to Toledo,
Ohio to get the nuggets and
sandwiches from Chick-Fil-A at
7:30 a.m. and spent about $230,
so the organization is hoping to
at least fundraise more than that
amount of money.
Another organization in
front of the posting wall Monday
was Michigan Mazaa, a group
that was founded four years ago
that aims to raise money and
awareness for organizations that
help fight human trafficking in
Southeast Asia.
Saturday, Michigan Mazaa
will hold its annual Bollywood
Dance Fusion competition in the
Michigan Theatre. It spends all
year preparing for this event.
LSA junior Rohit Agarwal,
who is the treasurer for Michigan
Mazaa, said representatives from
the organization have been out in
Angell Hall for the past week to
sell tickets for the competition.
“This is a great place to
market, everyone usually comes
by the posting wall and looks at
what we’re doing,” Agarwal said.
“It helps not only sell tickets but
also raise awareness for what
we’re doing.”
Agarwal said Michigan
Mazaa usually sells about 1,000
tickets for the show. Many of the
tickets are purchased online,
but many sales also come from
students who purchase the
tickets at the table in front of the
posting wall. To garner more
attention, there is a TV next
to the table that features clips
from the competition. Some of
the audience members at the
competition are also from out of
state because the competition
features groups from across the
country.
Agarwal said he hopes the
organization is able to spread
awareness about the problem of
human trafficking.

that they do, in practice, follow
the text of the Constitution.
“I say to my colleagues in
the U.S. Senate, my Republican
colleagues, you talk about the
Constitution a whole lot. How
about obeying the Constitution
and start holding hearings
when
President
Obama
nominates the next Supreme
Court
Justice?”
Sanders
said. “Talk about cowardice,
obstructionism. Here you have
the Constitution clear as can
be.”
Speaking
more
broadly
during his remarks, Sanders
said he was pleased by the
large
crowd
attending
the
rally, noting that the issues
he focuses on require the
attention of everybody.
The crowd was comprised
of residents and students from
all over the state wanting
to witness the candidate in
person, including LSA senior
Lucy Licht.
“I was really interested in
seeing what the real-life energy
was like,” Licht said. “I’ve
watched Bernie on TV and read
stuff about him but I don’t think
I really captured the experience
of the excitement and energy
of everyone coming together to
hear what he has to say.”
Sanders’ visit follows two
separate campaign stops in
Flint
for
opponent
Hillary
Clinton, in the race for the
Democratic nomination — on
Feb. 7, Clinton herself, and a
few days later, her daughter
Chelsea Clinton. During his
speech, Sanders said he met
with residents of Flint earlier
that day but did not make any
official
appearances
while
there.
Both Sanders and Clinton
have
criticized
the
state
government
for
their
slow
response to the Flint water
crisis. Clinton has brought the
issue to national attention by
referencing it during two recent
Democratic
debates,
calling
the current efforts insufficient.
Sanders — echoing several
state and national groups
who have heldprotests in
recent weeks — has taken
a harder stance, calling for
the resignation of Gov. Rick
Snyder.
During
his
remarks,
Sanders said prior to his
meeting with Flint residents
he did not fully understand the
gravity of the crisis.
“I really did not know how
ugly and how horrible and how
terrible what is going on in our
community (is),” he said. “It is
beyond my comprehension that
in the year 2016, in the United
States of America, we are
poisoning our children.”
Sanders also touched on his
plan for addressing student
debt
and
making
public
colleges
and
universities
tuition free. Sanders’ plan
calls for taxes on Wall Street
speculation — which would
require banks to pay a fee for
various financial transactions
included under the umbrella of
speculation such as stocks and
bond trading — to finance the
tuition-free college initiative.
U.S. Rep. Debbie Dingell (D–
Dearborn) has co-sponsored
legislation
that
addresses
the
loan-refinancing
issue
Sanders calls for, though she is
supporting Clinton in the race.
Sanders
said
higher
education is key to maintaining
a competitive economy, and
characterized student debt as
a “punishment” for individuals
seeking education.
“Everybody
knows
that
for our economy to be strong
we need the best education,”
he said. “How insane is it to
punish people for the crime
of trying to get an education?
That is why as part of our
legislation, we are going to
allow people to refinance their
debt with the lowest possible
interest rates.”
Recent
surveys
suggest
a
large
base
of
Sanders’
supporters come from younger
generations
—
particularly
those of college age. In New
Hampshire, Sanders won 83
percent of voters under the age
of 30, The Atlantic reported.
Sanders
promised
college
students in the room a future
without mounting student debt
and higher minimum wage, but
cautioned the crowd that they
must remain active in their
campaigning and get friends
and peers out to the voting
booth.
“Your job, in every creative
way, is to determine and make
certain that every American
is actively involved in shaping
the future of our country, not
just the 1 percent,” Sanders
said.
Sanders also stressed that
a
true
political
revolution
requires
action
from
the
bottom up. To take power away
from the 1 percent — a rallying
cry of the Sanders campaign —
movement must come from the
masses, he said.
“Real change never takes
place from the top on down …
real change takes place when
people by the tens of millions
look around and say you know
what, the status quo is just no
longer
acceptable,”
Sanders
said. “It’s got to change. When
the people lead, the leaders
follow.”

transportation of lab supplies.
It will include new laboratories,
offices, classrooms and some
of
the
museum
collections
currently
in
the
Ruthven
Museums Building.
Sports-focused
projects
made up a significant portion
of the construction planning.
These projects include $18.7
million
renovations
to
the
Intramural Sports Building and
a $168 million South Campus
athletics facility. The Stephen
M.
Ross
Athletic
Campus
Athletics South Competition
and
Performance
Project
is
funded
by
the
Athletic
Department, which received
a
$100
million
gift
from
University alum Stephen Ross.
The
construction
plan
for
the
310,000-square-foot
facility is designed to support
male
and
female
student-
athletes in track and field,
cross country, soccer, lacrosse,
wrestling, tennis, gymnastics
and women’s rowing teams.
New Master of Science in
Nursing
The regents will also vote on
the approval of a new Master
of Science in Nursinggraduate
program through the School of
Nursing. The MSN will serve as a
path to the Doctorate in Nursing
Practice, which the report cites
as important for preparation
for national certification and
licensure. It is designed for
those who have completed a
Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing.
The
School
of
Nursing’s
governing faculty has already
approved the 36- to 37-credit-
hour curriculum. If the regents
approve, enrollment may begin
in Fall 2016.
Central Student Government
Central Student Government
also submitted a report to the
regents outlining several of its
recent operations and goals.
The report includes updates
from the Course Evaluation
Committee,
which
includes
both
student
and
faculty
representatives.
Members
of
CSG and the Senate Advisory
Committee
on
University
Affairs have been collaborating
to
improve
the
evaluation
instrument and create fairer
data
release
policies
and
mechanisms.
According
to
the
report,
the
Course
Evaluations
Instrument Review Committee
has entered the final stages of
selecting appropriate evaluation
questions,
and
the
Policy
Committee is currently drafting
a disclaimer to be used upon
the release of course evaluation
data.
CSG filed a Michigan Freedom
of Information Act request in
December for the University to
release course evaluation data.
The report expressed CSG’s
disappointment about the delays
in the process.
Additionally,
the
Faculty
Senate’s
Student
Relations
Advisory Committee recently
voted to not recommend one
of six CSG proposals, which
would have allowed students to
“formally share their feedback
on amendments proposed by
the Faculty Senate or Executive
Officers.”
“We
are
disappointed
in
the Faculty’s decision to vote
this down, as it is only fair that
students are given the same
opportunity to comment on
amendment proposals that the
faculty
and
administrators
have,” CSG wrote. “Any change
proposed to our student code
of conduct should have ample
opportunities to have students
voice their opinions — and the
SRAC’s decision to vote this
down makes it difficult for
students to share their thoughts
on any proposed changes.”
The Office of General Counsel,
along with E. Royster Harper,
vice president for student life,
will now review amendment
proposals, and the final decision
will be made by University
President Mark Schlissel.
