A series of bills known as the Coercive Abortion Prevention Act recently passed through the House of Representatives Judiciary Committee. As a protective measure against a form of domestic violence, the bills require a doctor performing an abortion to screen the woman seeking the abortion to determine if she was coerced into it. On the cover, the act seems right in line with protecting civil liberties and promoting safe relationships, but the bills go deeper than a first impression. Whether we ignore it or not, domestic violence, be it emotional or physical, does exist.

Ten acres of MSU's vast agricultural fields are reserved solely for growing organic food. The MSU Student Organic Farm, 3291 College Road, in Holt serves as a place not only to grow certified organic food, but research organic farming techniques as well, according to its Web site. The farm focuses on Community Supported Agriculture, or CSA, in which the produce from the year-round farming is divided into shares and sold before the food is harvested. A share feeds up to about four adults and is not limited to one family, said farm manager and instructor Jeremy Moghtader. Shares are sold in spring, summer and fall and cost $460 per share, said Holly Markham, an environmental policy and anthropology senior, who works at the farm.
Although his team didn't win a game, MSU men's basketball coach Tom Izzo said working with members of the United States military in Kuwait was an incredible experience. Izzo traveled to Kuwait on about a weeklong trip with other college basketball coaches as part of Operation Hardwood II. He spent time at Camp Arifjan in Kuwait, where he helped coach a team of military personnel in a tournament of 12 teams of players from seven military camps. Izzo's team, a group of troops from Camp Patriot located on the Kuwait Naval Base, went 0-5 in the tournament. It was the second time Izzo traveled to Kuwait as part of Operation Hardwood, and he said it was good to go back and spend time with members of the military. "It was good for me to get another dose of reality and get my perspective back," Izzo said at a press conference.
