VETE R ANS MONTH
Former JetBlue CEO Dave
Barger, who previously attended
the University of Michigan, gave a
$10 million gift to the University’s
Barger Leadership Institute, an
initiative to promote research
opportunities for LSA students.
This gift comes 10 years
after the foundational donation
he made to create the institute.
This 10th-anniversary gift is
intended to expand and sustain the
opportunities the institute gives to
student leaders.
“It’s a great honor to be able
to continue to support the (Barger
Leadership Institute) and to help
expand experiential opportunities
for the next generation of leaders,”
Barger said in a news release.
“Michigan excels at preparing
undergraduate students to
contribute as well-rounded,
forward-thinking leaders, and it’s a
privilege to be able to support this
important work.”
The $4.5 million gift Barger
gave in 2007 to begin the institute
has gone toward forming new clubs,
developing startup companies,
seeking global and domestic
internships, partnering with on-
and off-campus organizations, and
learning professional skills that can
be applied post-graduation.
Public Policy junior Zoha
Qureshi, a BLI program
coordinator, said the institute has
been crucial to her development
as a leader, and she has benefited
immensely from Barger’s
commitment and resources.
“With this generous gift, BLI
will be able to provide even more
resources to support students in
their passions and interests. This
gift will help us include more access
opportunities to visit places all
around the globe, more networking
events to gain valuable, professional
connections, and more workshops
to promote individual growth,”
Qureshi said. “BLI stresses that
leadership is something that can be
learned by anyone. With this ability
to expand, we can make that vision
a reality for all University of
Michigan students.”
Barger has given more
than $18 million to LSA,
Athletics, University Libraries,
Michigan Medicine and the
Alumni Association since 1987.
His donations have gone on to
create programs like the Barger
Family Professorship and the
JetBlue Airways London School of
Economics Summer Program.
This gift also creates the
Richard. H. Price Founders
Fund, named after the institute’s
founding director, which provides
the director with funds to start
programs for students.

Five years ago, East Quad
Residence
Hallunderwent
comprehensive
renovations,
sporting
new
study
spaces,
improved restrooms and a new
430-person dining hall.
Since that renovation, the East
Quad dining hall has been a quick
stop for meals for students around
campus due to its convenient
location and sustainable meals,
as well as a huge improvement
for students in the University of
Michigan’s Residential College,
a
living-learning
community
housed in East Quad.
Recently, however, concerns
have been raised to East Quad
Hall Council regarding the size
of the dorm. With nearly 900
students, LSA freshman Jaylen
Bradley, president of the Quad
council, says the expansiveness
of East Quad has led to some
issues the council hopes to
address, especially with regard
to the dining hall.
The council, made up of
15 students and two faculty
advisers, has been drafting a
petition for the past month to
submit to MDining about the
hours.
“I was approached by several
of our residents saying how
the hours were inconvenient,”
Bradley said.
East Quad’s dining hall is
open for breakfast and lunch
from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m.; for dinner
from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.; and on
the weekends, 10:30 a.m. to 1:30
p.m. for breakfast and lunch, and
again 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. for dinner.
The council is petitioning for
longer lunches, longer dinners
and earlier breakfast on the
weekends to accommodate the
growing demands from residents.
“I need everyone to understand
that this is an ongoing process.
It takes time to make sure
everything is aligned,” Bradley
said. “Although our residents feel
like we’re not doing anything,
we are and it’s just behind the
scenes.”
LSA
sophomore
Sage
Renstrom-Richards has lived in
East Quad for the past two years.
“I go to the dining hall at least
three times a day,” Renstrom-
Richards said. “I usually get
second dinner because I know
that they have a very limited
window to get dinner.”
Like many students, late
nights are often a part of the
collegiate
experience,
and
with late nights comes the
desire for late-night snacks.
“At MSU, they have ‘late-
night
something,’
where
the dining hall is open and
only has limited options. It’s
good because it recognizes
the fact that you don’t stop
getting hungry after 8 p.m.”
Renstrom-Richards said.
The late opening times
for
the
dining
halls
on
the weekends can also be
inconvenient for students, she
said.
“I also work on weekends
and a lot of my work starts
at 10, so I literally cannot
eat
breakfast,”
Renstrom-
Richards
said.
“It
really
disadvantages
people
who
need to work, which is a
problem.”
