Cause if there's one thing the federal government is about, it's compromise

The University of Michigan has decided to offer a COMPROMISE to the U.S. Department of Education over wheelchair accesibility inside Michigan Stadium.

U-M's 'concession' is to add 295 wheelchair accesible spots during the $226 million dollar renovation and expansion set to be finished after the 2010 fooball season.

You want some kahones? Listen to Gloria Hage, interim vice president and general counsel at U-M:

"To be clear, we are proposing this plan outline as an offer of compromise -- in the interest of implementing our commitment to full and high quality accessibility to Michigan Stadium for individuals with disabilities who use wheelchairs, and in a way that will avoid the time and expense of protracted litigation with the Department of Justice"

Yeah, uh Gloria, time and protracted litigation are what the Federal Government is BUILT ON. We wish you luck but somewhere in Washington D.C. today a lawyerly bureaucrat saw your response and found him or herself job security.
