Dear subscribers,

Wednesday, more than 100 people marched through downtown Ann Arbor as part of the International Women's Strike. The seniors on the Michigan hockey team prepare for their final opportunities to play at Yost Ice Arena this weekend, while the Michigan men's basketball team prepares to head in to the Big Ten Tournament. We also have an exploration of student tuition and finances on campus. Finally, a reflection on the daily rigors of being a student athlete at the University.

All the best,

Michigan’s journey to a Big Ten Tournament Championship starts with Illinois

International Women’s Strike draws more than 100 to downtown Ann Arbor

More than 100 people marched Wednesday afternoon through downtown Ann Arbor as part of the International Women's Strike, one of many demonstrations occurring throughout the day locally and nationwide. The strike encouraged women to take the day off from work and buy only from female- or minority-owned businesses.

Though similar in nature, the International Women's Strike is not affiliated with the “A Day Without a Woman” event, which was organized by the Women's March on Washington.

Survey data shows students struggle to navigate financial literacy amidst rising costs

A survey conducted by The Michigan Daily last month found 74 percent of student respondents at the University of Michigan think tuition is too high, and 54 percent believe the University doesn't give out enough scholarship money.

LSA junior Kim Truong, a second-generation immigrant and first-generation college student, said despite receiving a full need-based scholarship, she believes tuition at the University is too high.
