Enffice Since its founding in 1 996, Habitat for Humanity made great strides to- wards eliminating substandard hous- ing in local communities. Though Habitat was an international organi- zation, the University ' s chapter had three goals it worked to achieve: to organize student volunteers for build- ing projects, to raise money to spon- sor construction efforts, and to edu- cate the community about homelessness. This year, over 400 volunteers built and rehabilitated simple homes in the area with the help of the homeowners who ben- efited from their efforts. Since 1996, over 2,200 University students be- came involved with Habitat. Co- founder Michael Carr, a graduate student in electrical engineering, ex- plained why so many students wanted to join the organization ' s efforts: With Habitat, you can immediately see the physical results of your labors, and students really appreciate this feedback from new homeowners. With its high visibility on campus, Habitat for Humanity looked for- ward to even more growth in coming years. C- rica Keller, an LSA junior, converses with a fellow member during a review session. The group met once weekly to critique potential additions to the Michigan Journal of Political Science. photo by Mira Dontchcva Front Row: Sara Skinner, Sarah Marsh, Christina Welter, Jenny Ho, Shailushi Baxi Row 2: Mamie Boardman, Jeanne Christensen, Michelle Bolek, Michele Huitric, Margaret Hudson, Jill Ness photo by Mira Dontcheva Front Row: Michael Farina, Darla Meints, Katharine Polasek, Amy Denault, Elizabeth Oatley Row 2: Shawn Burney, Ryan Bergeron, Nicholas Post, Brianna Thomson, Jonathan Kadish, Kinshuk Chakraborty, Charles Bartus, Matthew Bassin, Anita Arora, Cynthia Phillips Row 3: Kevin Gembel, Sandhya Clarke, Kay Shen, Tiffany Viant, Christopher Brand, Ryan Kennel, Paul Stachura, Jennifer Gruits, David Kupferer, Christopher Grimmer, Adam Weber Row 4: Kristin Miller, Sandeep Khattar, Gregory Barr, Gregory Sabo, Brian Dobkowski, Robert Prucka, William Grenawitzke, Kunal Bhalla, Brian Peterson, Jonathon Keener photo by Kristen Stoner Front Row: Ronny Luhur, Katherine Norris, Christopher Lyddy, Sarah Slosberg, Kelly Hach, Ramona Quesada Row 2: Matthew Mish, Michael Carr, Louis Krane, Lisa Hopkins, Lauren Harper, Graham Dersley Row 3: Aubra Levine, Thea Hamman, Sara Wojdacki photo by Heather Caddell Organizations + 351

Enrficc i The Michigan Journal of Political Science was the oldest political science journal in the country. In its 1 5th year of operation, the journal was published twice each year for the benefit ofstudents, faculty, and administration at the University and colleges across the nation. The journal ' s 15-person staff, which consisted of an editor in chief as well as senior editors and associate editors, worked hard throughout the year to select three or four scholarly papers worthy of publication in each semester ' s journal. This year, staff members had a table at Festifall and promoted the journal by speaking in various political science classes on campus. The main purpose of promot- ing the journal to the academic community was not to acquire potential staff members, but instead to encourage students to contribute a term paper or an honors thesis for consideration by the journal. Associate editor Seva Gunitskiy, a sophomore in political science and econom- ics, commented, Usually we don ' t recruit staff members, because people who are interested in being a part of the journal have heard about us and will seek us out. Under- graduate and graduate students in all areas of study were welcome to join the Michigan Journal of Political Science; potential members had to fill out an application, submit a writing sample, and interview with current staff members in order to be considered. As a staff member, students spent around four hours each week attending meetings and reviewing papers th had been submitted. Undergraduate and graduate st dents from around the country contributed papers to tl ; journal, and the papers were then evaluated and selected f publication. Chosen papers contained original resear and a relevance to political science, though papers fro English, history, and philosophy classes were often electe Gunitskiy said, They must have merit as a scholai article, but basically we ' re looking for a ' good ' paper just any professor would. In selecting three or four papt from the typical pool of over 30, editors reached a genei consensus on which were worthy of publication. Not eve staff member read each paper, but we value the opinio and judgments of our co-workers in making decision: added Gunitskiy. In addition to students ' submitt papers, the journal contained four or five book revie- about recently published books that had some relation political science. The Michigan Journal of Political Science was impc tant to both the students who had papers published in it well as the students who worked to print it. For studei whose papers were published, the journal was a way to f recognized in the academic community. For staff mei bers, the journal was a great way to further an interest j political science in a different way. Gunitskiy comment.. It ' s nice to be able to read someone else ' s paper and e it, rather than write another paper for another class. O u c c u O L= CL.

This year, the University ' s chapter of Circle K had 167 members who regularly participated in service events throughout the campus and local communities. In the spring, the organi- zation also planned The Detroit Project, a day of service in the city. After Circle K ' s membership increased sharply two years ago, the organization became involved in numerous events to publicize the group, such as Welcome Week ' s Maize Craze and Community Plunge, as well as events sponsored by other student organizations. Circle K gave members the opportunity to develop greatly as an indi- vidual, leader, friend, and citi en in the i immiiv. - Front Row: T. Whirl, M. Menta, S.RoweRow 2: N. Matti, D. Vilensky, J.
