In the city of Detroit, 

everybody gets a slice.

Detroit ranked number five 

on Tasting Table’s list of “The 

9 Best Cities for Pizza Lovers.” 

New York City and Brooklyn 

came in first and second, 

respectively.

According to the website, 

Detroit-style pizza is 

characterized by its rectangular 

shape and abundance of crust. 

Notable pizza joints mentioned 

in the article are Amar Pizza, 

Loui’s Pizza and Pepe Z’s. 

A Detroit Free Press article 

about the rating notes that 

Detroit was also named a 

top travel destination by the 

New York Times and a top 

“unexpected” food city by 

National Geographic, both for 

2017.

Eater Detroit’s online map 

of “The Essential Metro Detroit 

Pizzerias” also mentions the 

city’s iconic Neapolitan round 

pizza and its own New York 

style. Niki’s Pizza, located in 

Bricktown — a neighborhood 

of Detroit — is described as an 

exemplar of the city’s deep dish. 

PizzaPapalis, a Metro Detroit 

chain, is known for its Chicago-

style deep dish, according to 

the article. Supino Pizzeria, a 

family-owned diner in the heart 

of Eastern Market, is known 

for its New York style. The 

restaurant was also featured on 

an episode of Food Network’s hit 

TV show, “Diners, Drive-Ins and 

Dives.” Guy Fieri — restaurateur 

and host of the show — said his 

favorite Supino pizza was the 

“City Wing Thing,” complete 

with smoked turkey, cherry 

peppers and garlic.

Over 
80 
people 
gathered 

inside the Michigan Union Rogel 
Ballroom Friday night to listen to 
Matt Gallagher, former U.S. Army 
Captain and critically acclaimed 
author, recount his experiences 
in the Iraq War as a part of the 
8th Annual Student Veterans 
of America at the University of 

Michigan Benefit Dinner.

Student Veterans of America 

is a non-profit organization on 
campus aiding veterans with 
resources they need at higher 
education institutions, as well as 
after graduation. The group has 
chapters at almost 1,500 schools 
across the country, and has 
supported more than 500,000 
student veterans.

During the event, Gallagher 

read passages from his novel, 
“Youngblood,” as well as personal 
essays detailing his youth and 
experiences 
during 
the 
war. 

He spoke of the importance of 
continuing to tell stories, and how 
they can shape the future of the 
United States.

“Whether you’re an aspiring 

writer or going into business or 
going to be a dentist, we’re all 
storytellers,” Gallagher said. “It’s 

a way of giving back to our 
families, to our communities, 
to American society at large, to 
help understand the past and 
maybe, to help shape the future 
for the better.”

Gallagher 
commented 

numerous times on the strong 
national 
reputation 
of 
the 

Student Veterans of America 
chapter at the University.

Business senior Jonathan 

Chen, 
President 
of 
the 

SVAUM, said after serving 
nearly four years in the 
Marine Corps, he felt very 
welcomed by the Student 
Veterans of America. Chen 
described 
the 
hardships 

veterans face when they enter 
into a university setting, and 
explained how the group 
works to make the transition 
as smooth as possible.

“We say there’s really three 

big things: the professional, 
the social and the academic,” 
Chen said. “If you really think 
about it, somebody coming 
into college, like the normal 
way, you have an 18-year-
old, it’s kinda hard — hard 
to adjust, hard to find weird 
places, all that kind of stuff. 
When you put all that, class 
itself is hard, but then being a 
veteran and coming out of four 
to eight to 12 to 20 years in the 
military, some with multiple 
combat deployments, some 
with kids, some with husbands 
or wives, then putting school on 
top of that — it’s extremely hard.
