Here are the locations of the seven shootings that have injuried at least one person in Carbondale this year, according to data obtained by WSIL-TV.

LUKE NOZICKA, TYLER DAVIS Daily Egyptian

2016 is shaping up to be one of the worst years for Carbondale gun violence in recent history.

What was once an aggravated discharge of a firearm investigation has turned into the second homicide investigation this year for the Carbondale Police Department.

David Stockstill Jr., of Carbondale, was shot Feb. 1 and died from his injuries April 6, according to a Carbondale police

news release on Wednesday.

The 28-year-old was treated for his injuries at Memorial Hospital of Carbondale before being transferred to a St. Louis-area hospital where he was pronounced dead.

It is unclear where and why Stockstill was shot, police say. Police originally believed Stockstill’s injury were nonlife-threatening. He had a listed address in Mound City as well.

The Carbondale Police Department is offering $5,000 to anyone with tips that lead to the arrest of the shooter.

@DAILYEGYPTIAN

There have been seven shootings — two fatal — in which at least one person was injured since January, according to data obtained by WSIL-TV News 3.

Carbondale police reported one shooting in all of 2015, which was fatal, and six in 2014, none of which were fatal, the television station reported last week.

Below is where and when the seven shootings in Carbondale occurred this year, according to WSIL. - 9:31 p.m. Jan. 20 on East Chestnut Street, where one person suffered a non-fatal injury.

- 5:55 p.m. Jan. 30 in the 400 block of South Cedarview Street, where SIU student Spencer DePue suffered a nonfatal injury. DePue said doctors told him the bullet fractured his collarbone, ricocheted outward and chipped one neck vertebra near his spine.

- 2:44 p.m. Feb. 1 in the 400 block of West Jackson Street, the same date and time police say Stockstill was shot.

- 9:35 p.m. Feb. 20 in the 600 block of North Carico Street, where one person suffered a nonfatal injury.

- 2:07 a.m. March 27 at 402 W.

Walnut St. and 334 W. Walnut St., where local musician Tim Beaty was fatally shot while helping two SIU student-athletes. Nehemiah Greenlee suffered a non-life threatening gunshot wound the same night.

Three Southeast Missouri State University students have since been indicted on gun charges for this incident and Carbondale police are still searching for Daniel Holmes, 21, of Carbondale, as a fourth suspect wanted on felony gun charges for alleged involvement in the shooting.

Behind the books

Morgan Timms | @Morgan_Timms Collette Galanos, a librarian from Manchester, England, returns a book to the shelf Tuesday, National Library Workers Day, at the Carbondale Public Library. The day is celebrated each year on the Tuesday of the second week in April to recognize library workers’ contributions. Galanos has worked in the Carbondale Public Library for 18 years since moving to the United States in 1984 with her husband.

Students meet with government officials to discuss sexual violence WILLIAM DAVID HIGGS III @ Higgs_Third

A group of SIU students met with representatives from the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights on Wednesday to discuss their experiences with the university’s response to sexual harassment and assault.

The university is being investigated for possible failure to respond equitably and promptly to cases of alleged sexual violence.

"I came because this is an important

issue," said Shamir Brathwaite, a junior from Plainfield studying philosophy.

"As citizens, we are all in some way a part of this conversation, because we’ve either had it happen to us or know someone who’s had it happen to them."

Brathwaite said the breakout sessions were a good way to promote dialogue on the issue of sexual violence.

The purpose of the sessions was to aid the organization in understanding the climate of the university with respect to sexual violence, how SIU responds to cases of possible sexual violence and otherwise provide

information that could be helpful in the Title IX investigation of SIU, according to a statement from the Office of Civil Rights.

University administrators were not allowed to attend the sessions, and a Daily Egyptian reporter was not allowed to ask questions to OCR officials.

Further sessions are scheduled for Thursday in the Wabash/Vermillion Conference Rooms of the Student Center.

SIU debate team discuss presidential candidates WILLIAM DAVID HIGGS III @Higgs_Third

Only a handful of people’s political beliefs were swayed by two of the best young debaters in the country Tuesday evening.

SIU students Arielle Stephenson and Bobby Swetz — who recently finished as the runner-ups at this year’s National Championships of Debate — took the stage at the Student Center Auditorium to debate which major political party would be best for southern Illinois.

Stephenson argued in favor of the Democratic frontrunners and Swetz argued in favor of the Republicans.

Todd Graham, debate team director, asked the audience members to vote for either the Republican or Democratic frontrunners before the debate began. The majority of the audience expressed support for the Democratic position, although many showed support for Republican frontrunners.

“We’re asking you to vote for who you think would be best for southern Illinois, not necessarily who would be the best president,” said Graham, who has analyzed presidential debates for CNN.

- 7:06 p.m. March 29 at Evolve Apartments at SIU at 710 S. Illinois Ave., where a 19-year-old male, of Florissant, Mo., who was not identified by police, was taken to the Memorial Hospital of Carbondale with a nonlife threatening gunshot wound to his lower back. Holmes is also wanted in this incident.

Below is where and when gunrelated incidents in which no one was injured occurred in Carbondale this

The debate focused most intently on energy, education and agriculture. The argument quickly turned to the problems related to education. Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner’s proposed budget cuts to the state’s higher education factored heavily into the arguments of both debaters.

“While in the short term budget cuts may seem devastating, they are critical to the long term sustainability of universities around the country,” said Swetz, a freshman from Flossmoor studying economics. “In a world were places like [Chicago State University] can’t even afford to stay open, the future of SIU without budget cuts does not look pretty.”

Stephenson said several measures proposed by the current Democratic candidates, such as Bernie Sanders’ proposed tax on Wall Street, would provide adequate revenue to fund universities and make college freely available to students.

Swetz responded by claiming such measures would increase the cost of public universities to the state, ultimately leading to a mass closure of public universities statewide.

The downsizing of university services that would result from budget cuts would decrease tuition, making college more affordable, he argued.

Stephenson countered by arguing there are alternatives to budget cuts, which would make college more affordable without limiting universities.

“It’s not budget cuts or nothing,” said Stephenson, a junior from Torrance, Calif., studying business economics.

At the end of the debates, the audience was asked to indicate whether they had been persuaded by either argument to change which party they support. Six people stood to indicate they had shifted their support from Republican to Democrat. No audience members indicated a shift in support from Democrat to Republican.

David Yepsen, director of the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute, said this is the second time the institute hosted the debate, and he plans to do one annually featuring SIU debaters.

year, according to reporting by the Daily Egyptian.

- About 8:45 p.m. Feb. 2 near Saluki Apartments in the 400 block of East College Street. Veteran John McGrath, a 26-year-old junior from Quincy, was forced out of the university and banned from campus discharging a weapon during this incident.

- About 6:50 p.m. March 10 in the 900 block of South Elizabeth Street, where SIU student Andy Juravic was robbed at gunpoint.

The recent outburst in gun violence has raised concerns among SIU students, parents and community members.

“As a parent I’m disturbed by this,” Geri Klinger of Algonquin wrote on Facebook after the Daily Egyptian asked readers how they feel about safety in Carbondale. “I

wish my son would transfer. But he loves SIU.” The incidents also spurred a statement from interim Chancellor Bradley William Colwell.

“Unfortunately, shooting incidents like those that have occurred off campus are not isolated to Carbondale,” Colwell wrote to student via email March 30.

“Gun violence is a national issue and can occur in any community.”

Anyone with information about these incidents are encouraged to contact the Carbondale Police Department at 618457-3200 or Crime Stoppers at 618549-COPS (2677).

Soaking up the scenery

Anna Spoerre | @Anna Spoerre Jason Flynt, 29, of Carbondale, hikes with his dog, Pumpkin, Saturday at Cedar Lake near Pomona – about 15 miles from campus. “You can drive an hour and a half to St. Louis and be in a city or drive ten minutes and be in the middle of nowhere,” Flynt said. “It’s one of the main things I like about Carbondale.” He said Saturday was the first time he had been to Cedar Lake, choosing the destination because it gave his dog an opportunity to swim. Flynt, who grew up in southern Illinois, said he loves the area because of its natural beauty and diversity. Students hoping to get outside more don’t have to go far to find outdoor destinations like this. Marberry Arboretum, Green Earth, Touch of Nature Environmental Center and Giant City State Park are examples of trails less than 15 miles away and, Flynt said, they are worth the drive.

Students were able to air out concerns about racism on campus Wednesday during a meeting held by the Center for Inclusive Excellence in Guyon Auditorium at Morris Library.

Nathan Stephens, director of the Center for Inclusive Excellence, labeled the two-and-a-half-hour meeting as a "listening session" for students to open up to the administration. Administrators took notes during the meeting, but did not offer many solutions to students.

The meeting was a reaction to issues on campus in the last few weeks, he said. He wants students to feel like they have a resource to talk about these issues — even when it seems like they’re not available.

The panel of administrators said students can be open when filing complaints, and explained what resources students have to file a complaint. Administrators included SIU police chief Benjamin Newman Chad Trisler, of Students Rights and Responsibilities, and Kevin Bame, vice chancellor of finance.

"I would never not want a student to bring faculty concerns to our attention because of fear of outcome," said David DiLaila, associate professor of psychology and associate to administration.

During the meeting, DiLaila heard

students' concerns of a lack of a diverse administration and lack of minority faculty members.

Some students felt the meeting was held in response to a week-old Facebook video made in Brown Hall that exposed some of the racist acts that occur on campus.

"The fact that the meeting was one of the first listening sessions to be organized in years that addresses racism and diversity really puts into question what the university does to actually assist students who experience [racism]," said Kelechi Agwuncha, a freshman from Westchester studying cinema and radio-television.

The verbal attacks and incidents exposed in the video made by freshman Leilani Bartlett affect every minority in some way, Agwuncha said.

Omar Lopez, who is a resident of Brown Hall, said he personally witnessed a group of students chanting racial slurs toward AfricanAmericans and Mexicans, even threatening to physically hurt them.

"These are people who’s supposed to represent the school and this is how they choose to act — it’s very disappointing," said Lopez, a freshman from Oak Lawn studying criminology.

Students said SIU administrators must be more personal, communicative and direct with

students to create positive change.

"We should take the approach of Staples," Stephens said in reference to the slogan of the office supply store. "You got questions, we got answers and we want to help students as much as possible with resources and the utmost support."

There was a longer discussion about involving curriculum that teaches African-American and Hispanic culture rather than classes about basic college information such as university college courses.

"People need to learn to accept everyone and not just with race, but with religion and with their culture as well," Lopez said.

Lopez said minorities on campus are ignored. He said the university doesn’t highly consider some students' voices because of the smaller population of certain races.

Students and administrators also discussed the budget crisis and addressing the causes of recent protests by minorities on campus.

"I believe that things will change on both sides if students are more aware and speak up. The administration will take in more consideration to the actions on campus," Lopez said. "They need to show that they actually care."

A method to the madness

JOSE PEREZ | DAILY EGYPTIAN

Electronic music producer John McCarten, known professionally as Manic Focus, will perform Friday at Hangar 9.

After four shows in four nights in Colorado, McCarten returns to Carbondale with producer Late Night Radio as his opening act for the first show of the midwestern leg of his tour.

The two are heavily influenced by hip-hop, soul and funk music, resonating those influences by fusing heavy-hitting bass with funky grooves and beat samples to create a sound completely their own.

Jay Goldberg Entertainment and Events contacted Hangar 9 to book Manic Focus, said Caylan Hill, the bar's event manager.

Manic Focus visited Hangar 9 in 2013. "[Hangar 9] has no preference on genre," Hill said. "We host everything from hip-hop and electronic music to bluegrass and rock bands."

The show starts at 10 p.m. and tickets are $15 at the door or $12 online.

I want to entertain.” “The Mad Hippie Show” can be heard on the station every Wednesday from 3 to 5 p.m.

Alumni Association honors distinguished alumni JACOB PIERCE |@JACOBPIERCE1_DE

A former SIU student will receive recognition nearly 60 years after leaving the university.

Primo Angeli, who came to Carbondale as an undergraduate in the 1950s, is receiving the Cultural Impact Award at a 3:30 p.m. ceremony April 29 in Guyon Auditorium at Morris Library. He is one of four recipients receiving a Distinguished Alumni Award from the SIU Alumni Association.

Angeli, who was born in West Frankfort, graduated from SIU in 1957 with a fine arts major and gained a master's of fine arts degree in 1959. After that, he moved to San Francisco and started a successful corporate identity and packaging firm. His company worked with brands like Coca-Cola, Ben & Jerrys and General Mills.

He created the environmental graphics and poster for the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games. The designer did the official poster for the Salt Lake Olympics, the U.S. Olympic Team for Nagano and the U.S. Olympic Team for Sydney.

Angeli also worked on posters

for the 50th Anniversary of the United Nations, the Golden Gate Bridge and the Silver Anniversary of Grace Cathedral. The man was a design consultant with Olympic President Juan Antonio Samaranch and designed the poster for Word Cup in Paris.

He was also a finalist in a competition for having a American representative poster in the 2012 London Olympic Games.

his work, and where it comes from.”

Angeli elevated the role of designers in the developing process, he said. He is important in bringing their importance and value center stage.

“Designers are creatives, they have ideas,” Lopez said. “There are also the technicians.”

The man’s posters had a big hand in raising designers' stock, he said. Posters are done all the time in the profession, but his worked as pieces of art.

“I’ve never done anything like this. It’s really cool going through all of [Angeli’s] designs, seeing what he’s done and knowing he was a Saluki.”

- Elizabeth Hess Senior

Robert Lopez, an associate professor of design and departmental host, knew of Angeli's work and his name beforehand, but admired Angeli more after meeting him. After a classroom visit and having dinner with him and a couple colleagues, Lopez understood the mystic around him, he said.

“I kind of got to know him on a personal level,” Lopez said. “I could see

Many in the field who reach fame are known for a technique, Lopez said. Some are known for certain sorts of colors or things of that nature. Angeli was not afraid to explore different styles, he said.

He traveled down a number of different stylistic avenues.

Elizabeth Hess, a senior in communication design from

Lemont, will introduce Angeli at the ceremony.

"I’ve never done anything like this," she said. "It’s really cool going through all of the designs, seeing what he’s done and knowing he was a Saluki."

Hess said she had never met anyone as influential as Angeli. The idea of talking to someone like him, who was so successful in his line of work and passion, has brought up a lot of feelings. Angeli left his family in Illinois to go follow his dream in San Francisco, she said.

Kathy Dillard, director of corporate relations for the Alumni association, said the Alumni honors program started in 1997 and was originally just for successful alumni and their career achievements. But that changed in 2014, when they opened up the awards.

“Thinking about how many alumni are doing great things, it might not always be about career achievements,” she said.

These awards show students all the ways their SIU degrees can come in handy, Dillard said. A degree in one field, does not mean a person cannot be successful in another one.

It is about life taking someone a different way than they planned, she said. The connections and

skills a student learns at SIU can take a person in a number of different ways.

“It demonstrates the value of their educations from [SIU],” Dillard said.

Selections are made by one committee, she said. It is comprised of two members of the SIU Alumni Association National Board of Directors, one member of the Student Alumni Council, one alumnus, one SIU campus representative and one current SIU student.

Anyone can nominate any alumnus by filling out the form at the SIU Alumni Association website, Dillard said.

The association will also give awards to Robert Steele for Career Achievement; Marsha Ryan for Humanitarian Efforts; and Viktor Gruev for Young Alumni Achievement.

The University Museum currently has an exhibit of Angeli’s work on the first-floor rotunda gallery at Morris Library. The reception, however, is invitation only.

Thik Bol signs with Salukis AUSTIN MILLER | @AMILLER_DE

SIU men’s basketball made the transfer of 6-foot-8 forward Thik Bol official, announcing Wednesday the Sudan native has signed on to join the Salukis squad with two years of eligibility.

Bol, who last played at Iowa Western Community College, finished in the top five of the NJCAA in blocks each

of his two seasons as a Reiver, including being No. 1 with 4.9 as a freshman.

He started 28 of 30 games last season and averaged 10.2 points, 7.5 rebounds and 3.3 blocks.

"He is just a tremendous shot blocker," said Reivers head coach Jim Morris in a release Wednesday. "He’s just a bouncy, quick leaper, a good rebounder and he’s getting better offensively. There were about 20

schools recruiting him and all said they needed him as a rim protector. The Missouri Valley Conference is a very good level for him. He could probably use another 20 pounds, but he’s a really good kid, zero maintenance, goes to school and does fine academically."

Junior forward Sean O’Brien led the Salukis with 29 blocks this past season, while Bol had 102.

The Salukis had just 63 blocks last

season — last in the MVC. "I’ve always said it’s important to recruit kids who come out of wellestablished programs, and [head coach] Jim Morris has developed some great players at Iowa Western," coach Barry Hinson told SIU Athletics. "For our program, we’re always looking to get something that we don’t have. We’ve not had anybody in our program with the ability to alter or block shots

like this young man. He will have the opportunity to have an immediate impact on our program.”

The move helps bolster the Saluki frontcourt with the impending graduations of senior centers Ibby Djimde and Deng Leek.

SIU softball shuts out Murray State JACOB GAERTNER | @JGAERTNERDE

Saluki softball offense had a slow start Wednesday, but freshman pitcher Brianna Jones was dealing and got all the runs she needed.

SIU (24-12, 7-4 Missouri Valley Conference) beat Murray State (1721, 7-7 Ohio Valley Conference) for the second time in seven days, winning 2-0 on Wednesday.

"We played [Murray State] 10-5 last week, so it was kind of nice to play 2-0," Saluki coach Kerri Blaylock said.

Jones (18-6, 2.07 ERA) recorded her ninth shutout of the season, en route to her 18th win, both of which lead MVC pitchers. Her nine shutouts tie her for secondmost in Division I. Murray State had opportunities early, but stranded a runner each of the first two innings.

In the top of the third, the Racers loaded the bases with no outs, but a lineout and two pop-ups ended the strongest threat Murray had.

SIU took Murray State's momentum and immediately created its own.

A two-base error in the bottom of the inning put senior shortstop Kelsey Gonzalez in scoring position with nobody out. Another

Sean Carley | @SCarleyDE Senior shortstop Kelsey Gonzalez throws to first during Wednesday’s 2-0 win against Murray State at Charlotte West Stadium. Gonzalez went hitless in the game, but got an RBI on a sacrifice fly.

Racer error sent her home for the first run of the game.

The one run would be all Jones needed.

"After we scored, I got settled down," Jones said. "I knew they had my back, so I had to turn it over on defense."

Wednesday was the second time in two games where SIU took advantage

of opposing errors. On Sunday's series-clinching victory against Missouri State, three errors led to SIU's first four runs of the game.

"I think it's great, they went in for the kill, which is what we wanted to do," Blaylock said.

The Dawgs added a second run in the fifth when junior outfielder Merri Anne Patterson scored on a

sacrifice fly from Gonzalez.

The freshman pitcher found her groove in the last three innings, setting down each batter that walked up to the plate.

Blaylock said once Jones settled in, she was hitting her spots and seemed more comfortable than she's been the last couple of weeks.

Jones' 18 wins on the season

tie her for the most all-time for an SIU freshman. Amy Harre's mark in 2002 stood alone before Wednesday.

SIU plays Indiana State at 12 and 2 p.m. Saturday at Charlotte West Stadium.

percentages at least that high.

Henderson said last season allowed the young pups to adjust to the college baseball life, both on and off the field.

He said the biggest improvement for a collegiate baseball player comes between the freshman and sophomore years.

improvements to the experience they received last year against Division I opponents and the grind of the four-month season.

Physical improvements were attributed to working with strength coach Dash Buntjer to get bigger and stronger.

building that from Day One in the fall, and after time going through the fall with our workouts, we built a culture that we needed to be able to give ourselves a better chance to compete in the conference."

Four key members of the 2016 pitching staff — junior reliever Jacob Williams, sophomore closer Ryan Netemeyer, sophomore starter Michael Baird and junior starter Chad Whitmer — pitched in at least 15 games last season as underclassmen. Those four have shaved an average of 4.58 off their ERAs from last year.

Sophomore first baseman Logan Blackfan, who leads the team with three home runs and 28 RBIs, said winning — and losing — has been contagious for the Dawgs.

"Last year, once we started realizing that we were having a bad year, it was hard to keep a positive mindset," he said. "You want to be like, ‘Yeah, we can turn this around,’ but it was always kind of negative for us. We couldn’t catch any breaks.

This year’s been a lot more fun.

Everything came together for us for the most part, and we’re playing a lot better than we did last year.

Everybody believes in everybody."

While SIU has improved leaps and bounds, it still has more progress to make to join the top tier of Missouri Valley Conference baseball. The Salukis started the conference season by dropping two of three games to Indiana State (21-12, 2-1 Missouri Valley Conference). They will get their second taste of conference play this weekend with three games at Dallas Baptist (21-10, 2-0).

"We’re still a young club, but we’re a lot farther along than if we hadn’t stuck them out there as freshmen last year," Henderson said. "We’ve beaten teams that are a lot more experienced than us because they played last year ... chose to stick them out there, so I think the expectation was a lot better this year. We certainly can get a lot better. We’re going to get a lot better."

Saluki baseball older, wiser, winning THOMAS DONLEY | @TDONLEYDE

SIU baseball coach Ken Henderson knew during the 2015 season that sending out a lineup comprised mostly of freshmen and sophomores would pay off, even if the 12-46 record was hard for fans to stomach.

Those same players, who won roughly 20 percent of their games last year, have posted a 20-13-1 record so far this year.

"I told everybody last year that we weren’t a bad ball club," Henderson said. "We had good players, but good players that weren’t ready yet."

The Salukis had nine players appear in at least 40 games in 2015. Seven of them were freshmen and sophomores.

Six of those seven are back with the team. Five of the six returning position players have seen their batting averages increase by at least .033.

Only one Saluki hitter – senior outfielder Parker Osborne – had a slugging percentage better than .370 in 2015. The 2016 Salukis are slugging .371 as a team and have nine players with slugging

“I told everybody last year that we weren’t a bad ball club. We had good players, but good players that weren’t ready yet.”

- Ken Henderson, SIU baseball coach

"It’s light-years," said the sixthyear head coach. "They’ve matured in so many ways. But I think we expected that. I think some of it’s natural. It’s just that time. They’ve spent a year working on one sport for the first time. I think that really shows up when they come back in the fall."

Henderson credited his players'

Junior right fielder Jake Hand, the Salukis' regular No. 3 hitter, said the culture change for the team began in the fall.

"It’s a much more confident, mature type of feel in the locker room than I’ve experienced since I’ve been here," he said. "We built up in the fall the way we wanted to come out in spring. We started
