THIS WEEK IN HISTORY: OVER 13,000 ATTEND 
‘KICKOFF’ ON ENVIRONMENT

Drew 
Haynam 
was 
no 
ordinary 
Michigan 
football 
fan. 
Haynam, 
who 
passed 
away 
on 
Feb. 26, seriously loved 
Michigan football — so 
much so that his family 
decided to host his calling 
hours in maize and blue 
and play the fight song 
at his funeral. In lieu 
of 
flowers, 
his 
family 
asked for donations to 
be sent to the University 
of 
Michigan 
Alumni 
Association.
Haynam graduated from 
John Carroll University 
in 1979 with a degree in 
business. He spent a year 
at Ohio State University 
and joined a fraternity 
popular 
with 
football 
players there. According 
to his daughter, Melissa 
Libertini, Haynam caused 
trouble by playing “The 
Victors,” the University 
of Michigan’s fight song, 
in the fraternity house.
“I think he did it just 
so that when he was 
in his dorm room one 
day, or house, he locked 
himself 
in 
his 
room 
and started playing the 
Michigan fight song on 
his stereo super loud,” 
Libertini said. “Of course 
everybody in the house is 
going crazy, so they had 
to call his brother and 
they say, ‘You better come 
get your brother because 
he’s about to get the crap 
beaten out of him if he 
doesn’t turn this crap 
off.’”
Libertini 
remembers 
Haynam as an easygoing 
father 
with 
a 
passion 
for 
strategizing 
about 
Michigan football.
“He had the funniest 
sense of humor ever, it 
was just very dry, very 
sardonic,” Libertini said. 
“He was obviously a big 
Michigan 
football 
fan. 
Loved Starbucks coffee, 
and I don’t know, we 
always just had really 
funny 
conversations, 
about, 
especially 
in 
recent years — because 

the 
Michigan 
Football 
team hasn’t been doing 
so good — just always 
hypothesizing about what 
they 
could 
do 
better. 
Every 
year, 
whenever 
they were doing their 
recruiting, and he’d find 
out they would get a good 
quarterback or some good 
player recruited. When 
they got Jim Harbaugh he 
was super excited.”
According to Libertini, 
Haynam 
attended 
Michigan football games 
at The Big House as a 
child. This inspired his 
love of The Team. 
“I really think it was 
probably 
just 
because 
it’s the experience he 
had going to the games 
as a young kid, just the 
whole experience of it 
all,” Libertini said. “The 
maize and blue.”

She continued, saying 
Haynam’s 
passion 
extended to all aspects of 
Michigan football. 

“He loved Bob Ufer, 
the guy who did the 
sportscasting, he loved 
that guy,” Libertini said. 
“He just loved everything 
about it, he loved the 

whole 
team 
and 
the 
mascot, he loved how the 
helmets looked, the fight 
song, the Big House. He 
just loved it all.”
Libertini said if Haynam 
could offer any advice to 
the Michigan Wolverines 
today, it would be this:
“That they got to get 
their act together, so they 
can beat Ohio State this 
year.”
Libertini spoke of her 
father’s good character. 
According 
to 
her, 
he 
was open to having a 
conversation with anyone 
— even if they supported 
the Buckeyes. 
“He was a really, really 
nice, 
easygoing 
man,” 
Libertini said. “Even if 
you were an Ohio State 
fan, he’d still sit down 
and talk to you. And he is 
greatly, greatly missed.”

March 12 , 1970
A call for commitment, 
change and action to “Give 
Earth a Chance”, was the 
theme last night as over 13,000 
people attended the kickoff 
rally for the University’s teach-
in on the environment.
“We cannot defer for long 
a confrontation with the real 
debt that we owe to nature-

the total reorganization of 
our system of productivity to 
make it compatible with the 
ecosystem,” ecologist Barry 
Commoner told the mammoth 
crowd that filled Crisler Arena. 
Commoner, along with Sen. 
Gaylord 
Nelson, 
geneticist 
James Shapiro, Gov. William 
Milliken, actor Arthur Godfrey 
and 
University 
President 

Robben Fleming, emphasized 
the urgency of environmental 
problems and the need for a 
sustained effort to solve them.
“The important fact is that 
we’re sitting on a delayed-
action bomb and we had 
better defuse it as quick as 
we can,” Milliken said. “Our 
responsibility is not just to 
save our own skins but to have 

humanity.” 
Despite 
wide 
agreement 
that environmental problems 
exist, the peaceful rally was 
not without dissension. Many 
of the speakers were heckled 
by audience members and 
criticized in a fake program 
produced by Students for a 
Democratic 
Society, 
which 
also organized a card section.
