On Friday afternoon, The Michigan Daily sat down with Vice President for Student Life E. Royster Harper for the final interview of the term. The conversation included discussions on recent administrative approval to change the names of C.C. Little Science Building and Winchell House, Greek life winter recruitment, and the recent CSG elections.

For LSA senior Madeleine Conrad, an out-of-state student from California, the differences in enrollment numbers between in-state and out-of-state students at the University of Michigan reflect the diverse perspectives brought by out-of-state students. Yet Conrad feels conflicted when she considers the role she feels the University should play in supporting in-state students.

The  Lecturers’ Employee Organization filled the room of The University of Michigan Board of Regents March meeting,  as the board voted to remove the names of the C.C. Little Science Building and West Quad Residence Hall’s Winchell House on Thursday afternoon. Before the meeting, LEO hosted a grade-in with around 75 lecturers packing the lobby of the Michigan Union and their assembly did not go unnoticed, with several regents responding to their calls for higher wages and greater benefits during the meeting.

When LSA freshman Shelby Alston received a full scholarship to the University of Michigan, she began to consider how she might factor housing into her life at the University. Hailing from Royal Oak and Alston was working a job in Auburn Hills, she didn’t want to sacrifice her job to come to Ann Arbor. Alston decided commuting from home would be the best way to ensure she would be able to keep doing the work she loves.
