On Tuesday evening, a crowd of about 100 students, faculty and community members joined together in the Diag for the #StopSpencer Speak Out with one common message: Richard Spencer is not welcome at the University of Michigan.
Dear subscribers,
Today, we take a look at the #StopSpencer speak out held Tuesday night to protest the University's decision to consider hosting Richard Spencer. We also reflect on the Michigan football team's running backs from this past season. We also have the newest installment of Standing Room Only, featuring Detroit-based band Legume. We take a look at the history between the Michigan men's basketball team and North Carolina ahead of their matchup on Wednesday. Finally, The Statement explores the involvement of students of color in the University's musical theater program.
All the best,
The Michigan Daily

The hullabaloo and frenzy surrounding the opening of the musical included a feature in Vogue magazine, shows selling out months in advance and scalpers asking for over $1,000 a ticket to the show.
