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.”
