As
“I
Got
a
Feeling”
reverberated
throughout
the
Indoor Track Building Saturday
afternoon, hundreds of students
and families prepared to stand
for 24 hours to raise money for
local children with disabilities
and illnesses.
VictorThon
2017,
the
capstone
event
of
Dance
Marathon at the University
of
Michigan,
serves
to
bring students and campus
organizations
together
to
raise
awareness
about
pediatric rehabilitation, and
monetary funds for both C.S.
Mott Children’s Hospital and
Beaumont Children’s Hospital.
DMUM is the largest student-
run,
nonprofit
organization
on campus and in the state of
Michigan.
LSA senior Allison Sheehan,
DMUM
executive
director,
kicked
off
the
event
by
emphasizing the importance
of DMUM’s history, and how
much money has been raised
since
the
organization’s
inception.
“Throughout
DMUM’s
20-year
history,
this
organization has raised over
$5 million for the kids,” she
said. “To break this down a
little further, over the past 20
years, over 15,000 college-age
students have stood on their
feet for over 528 hours to show
the kids and the families that
we will never stop supporting
them. But what does this all
really mean? The true magic
of DMUM is that it has the
ability to impact so many
people in so many different
ways.”
LSA junior Sam Boeve,
director of DMUM family
relations, said he became
involved with DMUM after
attending
VictorThon
his
freshman year and realizing
he wanted to be a part of the
organization’s culture and
mission.
“I
became
involved
in
DMUM as a freshman through
my fraternity,” he said. “A
couple older guys in Phi Delt
were involved in leadership
and really stressed DMUM’s
amazing cause and mission.
The first event I attended was
VictorThon, and when I was
there, totally immersed in the
culture, I knew I wanted to get
more involved the next year.”
Boeve added that DMUM
is a very diverse group of
students, and events such
as VictorThon bring people
together from across campus.

There are many reasons why
Michigan football coach Jim
Harbaugh is famous. His coaching
skills, his own football career, his
“enthusiasm unknown to mankind.”
And of course, his iconic khakis.
So it was no surprise that
Harbaugh made headlines this
weekend for admitting he’d switched
from his usual $8 khakis to a new pair
of $128 Lululemon pants.
ESPN reporter Jeff Darlington
broke the news to fans via Twitter
on Friday. According to Darlington,
Harbaugh has fully committed to his
new fashion.
“I’ll never wear anything else,”
Harbaugh told ESPN.
Though he didn’t speak publicly
about the switch until this weekend,
an investigation from the Washington
Post found evidence that Harbaugh
has been wearing Lululemon since
the latter half of this year’s season.
Some perceptive fans became
suspicious of the change as early as
this past November.
“Is it just me or has Jim
Harbaugh made the upgrade to
LuluLemon ABC Pants …?” one fan
tweeted.
Indeed, television reporter
Brad Galli gave Harbaugh his first
pair as a gift during an interview
in September. Harbaugh told GQ
Magazine in an interview earlier last
week, before he announced the new
pants were from Lululemon, that he
wears them for everything, and he
loves their versatility.
“I can work out in my khakis,”
Harbaugh said. “And do … They
make me feel good, too. Like I have
a uniform. I always liked having a
uniform.”
The new pants are noticeably
different from his old khakis. Though
the color seems to be the same,
Harbaugh has traded out pleats and
loose ankles for a tighter fit and a
reflective inseam that can be seen
when the pant legs are rolled up.
Many fans — and even former
players — have been receptive to the
change, saying he looks great.
However, some people have
been critical. Evan Jankens of CBS
Detroit thinks the switch is unfair to
Nike, who designed special khakis
for Harbaugh at the beginning of last
season.
“If you ask me, it’s kind of a slap
in the face to Nike who made special
khakis for the coach, but who am I to
judge?” Jankens wrote.
Nike hasn’t commented on
the switch. However, Karl Aaker,
Lululemon’s men’s brand director,
confirmed to the Washington
Post that the company is thrilled
Harbaugh likes its pants — though the
coach isn’t an official spokesperson.
“We’re pumped,” Aaker said.
Harbaugh’s Khakis— an
unofficial fan account on Twitter
meant to celebrate his iconic pants—
also has yet to comment on the
change.
