The University of Michigan

offers one of the best all-around

sports experiences in the country,

with Michigan Stadium, Yost Ice

Arena and Crisler Center each

listed in the “Top 100 Stadium

Experiences of 2016,” according

to website and magazine

“Stadium Journey.”

The list, which evaluated the

fan experience at 761 different

college and professional sports

stadiums in the United States,

listed Michigan Stadium at

number 16, Yost Ice Arena at

number 68 and Crisler Arena at

number 73.

As the largest stadium in

North America with a capacity

of 107,601, the experience on a

Saturday in Ann Arbor at the Big

House earned high praise from

the author of the article, Paul

Swaney.

“With the recent ascendancy

of the program, this may just be

the perfect time to see a game

at Michigan Stadium,” Swaney

wrote in the description. “The

Big House and a Michigan

football game should sit squarely

on even the shortest list of must

see venues for any sports fan. The

grandiosity, history, and pure

joy of a Saturday in Ann Arbor

is a must for all avid stadium

travelers.”

The Wolverines’ chief rivals,

Ohio State and Michigan State,

did not fare well on the list and

only had one entry: Ohio State’s

Ohio Stadium ranking at number

35.

The only other stadium in the

state of Michigan to make the list

was Comerica Park, home of the

Detroit Tigers, at number 92. The

three other major Detroit sports

stadiums — Joe Louis Arena, Ford

Field and The Palace of Auburn

Hills — did not make the list.

According to an email sent by

Charlie Houlik Wednesday night

to members of the Sigma Kappa

sorority living in the chapter

house, “up to 30 Fraternity guys

have been hospitalized with the

Norovirus.” The email stated the

sorority Kappa Kappa Gamma

had closed its doors to any

nonresidents, and encouraged

members of Sigma Kappa to do

the same.

There
were
reports
last

week of a vomit-inducing illness

originating from an unspecified

fraternity when several members

of Mary Markley Residence Hall

suddenly became sick.

“It started off with one girl,

because I guess one of the frats

on campus had it, and then her

sorority mixed with them on

Saturday so she got it,” said

LSA freshman Haya Akbik last

week. “Then she gave it to her

roommate, and some girls in

our hall got it, and last night a

girl in our hall slept in my room

because her roommate had it and

was puking all night, and then

my friend on the other side of

Markley has it.”

University
of
Michigan

representatives say they have not

seen any evidence to substantiate

the
email.
According
to

University spokesperson Kim

Broekhuizen, there have been

no new cases of gastrointestinal

illness in the past week.

“I can tell you with 100

percent certainty that no one

has been hospitalized,” she said.

“Typically, it’s my understanding

that they don’t test to confirm

norovirus
unless
there’s
a

significant concentration of an

outbreak in one single area, and

we haven’t had that.”

Mary Masson, director of

institutional
positioning
for

Michigan Medicine (formerly

known as the University of

Michigan
Health
System),

confirmed
Broekhuizen’s

statement.

Though, a member of Phi

Kappa Psi fraternity who asked

to remain anonymous said he

was diagnosed with norovirus at

Michigan Medicine.

“It was UMHS, and yeah,

they said it was the norovirus,”

he said.

According to the website for

the Center for Disease Control,

the most common symptoms of

norovirus are diarrhea, throwing

up, nausea and stomach pain,

while less common symptoms

are fever, headaches and body

aches.”

The anonymous member of

Phi Kappa Psi described similar

symptoms.

“I was really at the peak of it

on Friday and Saturday,” he said.

“It was mostly just throwing up

and constant nausea along with

a pretty intense fever. Overall it

didn’t last more than 30 hours.”

When
asked
about
the

content of the email sent to

Sigma Kappa, the anonymous

fraternity brother could not

verify its accuracy.

“I know there’s a couple of

kids within Greek life that have

it,” he said. “I haven’t heard of

that many people being affected

by it but I’d have no way of

knowing.”
