During the Michigan vs.
Wisconsin game, 19-year-old
actress Chloe Grace Moretz,
known for her roles in the
films like “Kick-Ass,” joined
the College Democrats to
rally University of Michigan
students to vote for Democratic
presidential nominee Hillary
Clinton.
According to AmericaJr, a
news and entertainment website,
about 250 students registered at
the event.
“It’s really exciting … to talk
to a bunch of 18- and 19-year-old
kids who have never registered
to vote yet and this is their first
vote — as with me, this is my
very first vote; it’s exciting,”
Moretz said in an interview with
AmericaJr. “I think what’s sad
is that the other side of this aisle
has made this election process
really negative. … The whole
entire electoral process should
be fun and exciting and you
should have positive experience
with your friends and learn
things from both sides.”
LSA senior Taiwo Dosunmu,
the communications director
for the University’s chapter of
College Democrats, said the
event was handled by Clinton’s
campaign campus organizers,
but College Democrats promoted
the event to its members.
“I attended the event and
thought it went very well,” he
said. “She spoke briefly about
the importance of registering
our fellow students to vote and
did a good job conveying her
enthusiasm about this election
and about Hillary Clinton.”
Moretz has also been
campaigning for Clinton
this week at other Michigan
universities such as Lawrence
Tech University in Southfield
and Michigan State University.
According to an interview
with People magazine, Moretz
decided to support Clinton after
viewing her college loan reform
plan. Clinton’s plan allows
families who are earning under
$125,000 per year enroll their
children in an in-state university
with a promise of being debt-free
after graduation.

I AM A GOD
“This is a great opportunity,
but let’s not have this opportunity
just be a nice meeting — that’s
not the point of today,” Snyder
said. “The charge I would give
you — the challenge I would say
to you — is come out of here with
a passion to inform others, to
be that role model to empower
others.”
At last year’s summit, Gov.
Snyder
first
announced
the
introduction
of
a
$500,000
grant, which could be used by
universities to apply for funding
for sexual assault prevention
initiatives.
The
University
received $20,003, which it used
for the Raise the Bar program
— an initiative in which local
bar employees participated in
bystander intervention training.
On Sunday, Snyder said he is
proud the state is allocating
another $500,000 for the same
purpose. The University plans to
apply for the grant again, but has
not yet decided on a project for
the potential funding.
Snyder, a University alum, said
the college campus experience
is an exceptional part of a young
person’s life and development,
and that people on campuses
across the state need to be
interacting with and educating
students about sexual assault
prevention.
“That’s one of the greatest
experiences many of us have
had in our lives, the opportunity
to go on campus, to have that
first experience beyond home,”
Snyder said. “We need to engage
everyone in this dialogue so
these young people can have
that wonderful experience we all
dream about and not have these
terrible tragedies interfere with
their lives, potentially ruin their
lives.”
Sue Snyder said the issue
is important to her, especially
because her daughter Kelsey is
a student at the University and
she considers Ann Arbor her
hometown.
“That makes the work we
are doing here today especially
meaningful,” she said. “That’s
what
makes
this
initiative
so personal: Our college and
university campuses are our
students’
homes
away
from
home.”
Changing
the
culture
surrounding sexual assault and
encouraging students to seek
help is a primary concern for
her, Sue Snyder said. She said it is
unacceptable for colleges to have
an atmosphere that doesn’t give
the proper respect to survivors
and makes students afraid to
speak up about sexual assault.
“Sexual assault has been a
taboo topic around the country
for far too long, and I am so proud
Michigan is a leader in addressing
this issue,” Snyder said.
Currently, the University of
Michigan, Grand Valley State
University and Alma College
are
under
investigation
for
Title IX violations. Michigan
State University was also under
investigation for two cases, but
both were resolved in 2015.
In a press conference after
the event, Gov. Snyder said it
is expected that sexual assault
statistics will rise as more people
feel
comfortable
reporting
incidents, but the end goal is
to see a decrease as assault
prevention techniques are more
effective.
“The goal is to reduce it over
time,” he said. “Obviously you
can see the numbers increase as
you get awareness, but then
hopefully prevention starts
kicking in and you see that
number go down.”
Speaking
to
the
University
specifically,
Kelsey Snyder said unity
and transparency between
different
organizations
such as the Sexual Assault
Prevention and Awareness
Center,
Central
Student
Government and Greek life
are key.
“(From)
firsthand
experience,
transparency
is one of the biggest things
a college campus can have
with the community,” she
said. “Just knowing the
exact steps to take, having
it all laid out, so (students)
don’t
feel
blindsided
by
anything.”
New to this year’s summit
was
a
forum
for
input
from high school students,
student athletes and Greek
life representatives.
