Civil suit delayed in Young case Branda Mitchell
@BrandaM_DE | Daily Egyptian
A hearing in the wrongful death suit filed by Larry Young against his daughter’s former boyfriend Richard Minton has been delayed until Feb. 24 because of the judge’s connection to the case. Molly Young, Larry Young’s daughter, was found dead in the
apartment of Minton—who was a dispatcher at the Carbondale Police Department—the morning of March 24, 2012. Judge Christy Solverson, who was assigned to the civil case, had signed a search warrant the day Molly Young’s body was found. “[Solverson] is recusing herself because she did sign the original search warrant and could be a
potential witness in the wrong doing on the part of the officials,” Larry Young said. “There is going to be a motion to assign a new judge.” A press conference regarding Molly Young and Pravin Varughese, an SIU student found dead Feb. 18, 2014, is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. Friday at the Veteran of Foreign Wars office in Murphysboro.

Memorializing Maya Angelou NAACP
executive to visit SIU Tyler Davis
@TDavis_DE | Daily Egyptian
P eter r ogalla • D aily e gyPtian Anna Jackson, a lecturer in the English department, dances to a song made from the poem “Still I Rise” by Maya Angelou on Monday night at the Student Center. Jackson organized the event to celebrate and remember the life and works of Angelou, and incorporated poetry readings, songs and an excerpt from Angelou’s book “Letter to My Daughter.” Jackson kept the crowd engaged by giving out Maya Angelou T-shirts to whoever could answer questions relating to the poet. She also performed the poem “Caged Bird,” from Angelou’s book “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings,” which was the first nonfiction best-seller written by an African American woman. Jackson ended the night by playing the song “Still I Rise” twice, encouraging everyone in the audience to get up and dance with her while the song replayed.
At the age of 21, John Gaskin III became an executive member on the national board for the NAACP. Nearly a year after the record-setting event, Gaskin will speak at SIU. The event, “Ferguson and Beyond: Not Just a Moment But a Movement,” will be from 6 to 8 p.m. Wednesday in the Student Center Auditorium. It will be hosted by the College of Business, Office of Minority Affairs, the SIU chapter of the NAACP and the Registered Student Organization Blacks Interested in Business. Gaskin—who provided commentary on the events following the August shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teen—will speak to students about ways to become active in the Carbondale community, said Michael Haywood, director of the office of minority affairs. “He’ll tell them they need be serious, focused and realize that they are not the leaders of tomorrow but the leaders of today,” Haywood said. He said Gaskin will also talk to young children as well as adults. “John will be talking to some second graders and third graders, encouraging them to be their best in academics and to set goals,” Haywood said.

Disability-friendly dog park in the works Jessica Brown
@BrownJessicaJ | Daily Egyptian
SIU architecture students and Supporting Independence through Teamwork Service Dogs are joining forces to create a dog park accessible to those with disabilities. The national organization trains and provides service dogs for people with disabilities and chronic medical diagnoses, while the student group, Freedom by Design, brings ideas to life in order to assist those with accessibility needs. The group typically consists of 10 to 15 members, all of who study interior design or architecture. Katelyn Walker, director of the group, said the organization was tasked with finding and completing a design project at the beginning of the fall semester. “I started looking at people I had met before on campus and I contacted SIT Service Dogs,” said Walker, a senior from Manteno studying architecture. SIT’s owner and founder Lex Dietz, an SIU psychology alumna from Bloomington, initially wanted to add a ramp to the back of SIT’s training center in Ava.
But the students told Dietz they could make a dog park behind the training center, to which she happily agreed. “We’ve never done a therapy dog park,” she said. “I’m pretty sure there’s nothing like that in our area.” The 150-by-100 foot area will offer safe and easily accessible amenities such as padded walkways and ramps. “When you’re a seizure patient and you go out in public, you can fall and hurt yourself badly,” Dietz said. “Cement is your worst enemy. Freedom by Design is creating softer areas in the park to avoid bashing of the lips, nose, mouth and teeth, as well as preventing further brain injury.” Walker said Freedom by Design will waive labor costs for the project. SIT and Freedom by Design will gather money and materials through fundraising. While hopeful to raise $3,000, SIT has raised $335 through a GoFundMe page, which it created Jan. 23. Walker said her group will use as many recycled materials as possible
and avoid sharp corners during construction. “The current design has a lot of organic shapes,” she said. “It’s better for wheelchairs and better for dogs. Sharp corners aren’t the easiest to walk around or turn around.” Nicole Dethrow, a junior from Chester studying biomedical science, said the park will benefit to those who use a wheelchair. Dethrow is afflicted with muscular dystrophy, a disease that wears down muscles over time. She will receive her service dog, Declan, from SIT within the next couple of months. “Riding around in grass and stuff is difficult,” Dethrow said. “Making things bigger and less steep will make navigation easier.” Declan is trained to open doors by pressing accessible buttons, carry things for Dethrow and pick items up for her if she drops them. “He’s also learning how to give the cashier money and take the change,” she said. While Dethrow is SIT’s only client at SIU, the company caters to those with various disabilities
M arat t sablinov
nationwide, ranging from 5 to 65 years of age. The group also tries to minimize costs for clients. Training mobility assistance dogs, medical alert dogs and seizure response dogs for clients does not come cheap, Dietz said. “It costs about $25,000 to raise a service dog from start to

finish,” Dietz said. “We ask the clients to fundraise less than 45 percent of that.” The remaining money is raised through offering services to the community for a fee, such as canine therapy, educational and training programs, Dietz said. Please see PARK · 2

Larry Young said the press conference will be about the lack of action of officials involved. He said there are plans to file a complaint with the Department of Justice over violations of the Freedom of Information Act. “We haven’t done that last step yet,” Young said. “A lot of people don’t have their facts straight. In the process of that, you lose the statute of limitations for official misconduct. We’ve given that up in exchange for possibly bringing [Minton] to trial someday. We’re in the process of having all our ducks in a row before we go higher.”

She said SIT is planning an additional fundraising event for the project. “A trivia night is one of the things we’re looking at doing,” Dietz said. “But if we can find a way to get a hold of wheelchairs, we’re thinking of having people pledge for participants to ride around in them. That way we’d be raising awareness as well as funds.” Dietz said awareness helps others understand the difficulty of navigation as a person with disabilities. “When you’re not in a wheelchair or when you’re not somebody who deals with seizure disorder, you don’t realize how inaccessible some places are,” she said. Construction for the project begins April 11 and is scheduled to be completed April 19.
Haywood said from voting rights to the Michael Brown incident, civic issues are not just temporary. While many of these events affect black people, Haywood said Gaskin’s visit is for anyone interested in joining the celebration of American history. “It’s not just geared towards black people,” he said. “The NAACP is not just for black people. Everyone has benefitted
from what the NAACP has done.” The NAACP has positively affected other nationalities and identity groups, such as LBGTQ members by helping them organize and take actions, Haywood said. For more information contact the Office of Minority Affairs or Michael Haywood at haywood@ business.siu.edu.

Mental health upgrades at Upcoming Black state prisons could take 5 years History Month Events Edith Brady-Lunny The Pantagraph
A major overhaul of mental health care in Illinois’ prisons could take five years to fully implement, according to a proposed agreement filed in a federal lawsuit on the issue of how mentally ill inmates are treated behind bars. A proposed settlement of a 2007 federal lawsuit, recently filed in U.S. District Court in Peoria, lays out a plan for opening four residential treatment units, drastically increasing staff to care for mentally ill prisoners and reopening the former Joliet youth home as a mental health campus. The improvements that could slowly increase the amount of time seriously mentally ill inmates spend out of their segregation cells, and provide hospital care currently unavailable will be phased in over five years, said the plan. U.S. District Court Judge Michael Mihm has ordered high-level state officials, including the governor, and directors of the corrections and human services departments and Central Management Services or their representatives, to attend a March 20 hearing. Alan Mills, executive director of
the Uptown People’s Law Center and one of the lead attorneys for inmates, said last week he is pleased the state is willing to improve mental health conditions. “We understand that they are making fundamental changes in a very large system, and that this will take time. However, we are also concerned that there are men and women who are suffering harm today and who need relief now, not in three or five years when the changes are fully implemented,” said Mills. To illustrate his point, Mills described a recent interview with a 21-year-old female inmate at Logan Correctional Center in Lincoln. A victim of a sexual assault and kidnapping, the woman suffers from anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder and seizures. Prison staff stopped all her seizure medications and grabbed her after they accused her of faking a seizure, said Mills. Now in segregation for spitting on the guard who grabbed her, the inmate has not seen a psychiatrist, but talks briefly to someone via video about her mental health condition, said the lawyer.
Most of the upgrades to mental health care are based on Illinois Department of Corrections rules put in place since the lawsuit was filed. “IDOC is moving forward with the already-agreed-upon components of the decree, and numerous major components are scheduled for rollout this years,” said IDOC spokesman Tom Shaer. All offenders entering the prison system will be screened for mental health issues and provided counseling, medication and follow-up care by trained professionals, under the plan. A total of 350 new clinical workers and 200 security staff will be hired at a cost of $62 million. Renovations at facilities in Dixon, Pontiac and Logan correctional centers, combined with the Joliet campus, will bring the total number of beds to 1,235. Under the proposal, staff will be hired at Dixon by March 17 and Pontiac and Logan by Aug. 17. The Joliet staff should be in place by June 2016. An estimated $18 million needed to cover increased staff and operational costs is included in the FY 2016 state budget. Other costs will be spread over several years, said Shaer.

Written in stone and bone
Chase Myers
@chasemyers_DE | Daily Egyptian
Brian Switek, a paleontologist and writer from Salt Lake City, has been studying the dinosaurian world through fossilized remains and has written numerous books and blog posts about the importance of Earth’s natural history. Switek will travel to Carbondale to lead a guest lecture at 12 p.m. Thursday at the John C. Guyon Auditorium in Morris Library. He will speak about what fossil records can tell people about the most dramatic changes the Earth and its animals have experienced.
“Ever since I was a kid… it really fascinated me just to be able to see how elephants went from these things that were the size of pigs and didn’t have trunks, to things like wooly mammoths,” he said. Switek’s fascination with science and interest in dinosaurs as a 5-year-old became more than just a phase. “That was my gateway to science,” Switek said. “Learning about them and what we said we knew about them, and it stuck with me since then.” Switek’s writing career began much later, in 2006, when he attended Rutgers University in New Jersey. He felt as if his classes were not teaching
him everything he wanted to know, so he began to study independently. “I just started reading books and technical papers, trying to teach myself about the science of paleontology,” he said. “As a way to remember what I was learning, I would write about it.” Switek’s first book, “Written in Stone,” was published in 2010. After establishing an online presence with blogs for the Smithsonian and Wired magazines in 2013, National Geographic asked him to write a blog combining multiple paleontological ideas. Switek’s career catapulted from there and he eventually wrote an entire
special issue about the Mesazoic era, the age of the dinosaurs. He is writing his first feature story for National Geographic while living in Salt Lake City, a very fossil-rich area. “I came out here because this is where the fossils are,” Switek said. “It is right in the middle of prehistoric country where everything is out and exposed.” The discussion will address revolutionary research methods emerging in the paleontologist world, he said. “We are beyond the age of imperialist science, where you have people from America or Western Europe going
elsewhere to dig up fossils and bring them back,” he said. “Now there are many more local experts all over the world who are studying fossils in their own back yard.” Switek said he will present a simple explanation of his career and how to become a science writer. “I am treating it more or less like a workshop to see what the audience wants to know about how to get involved in science writing or how to better promote the science going on at the university,” he said. A writing lecture and coffee hour will follow shortly after the main lecture.
Now, 10 years later the television show is a shell of its former self. A sequel to the movie was announced last year, hoping to regain some of the glory lost. “The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water” (Rated PG; 93 mins) reignites the dull creative flames of the franchise. In the children’s film–directed by Paul Tibbitt and starring Antonio Banderas, Tom Kenny, Bill Fagerbakke and Clancy Brown–SpongeBob Squarepants, played by Kenny, still works at the Krusty Krab.
He and the gang are dealing with Plankton, played by Douglas Lawrence Osowki also known as Mr. Lawrence, and his schemes once again. During his latest attempt to steal the Krabby Patty formula, the recipe disappears out of his and SponegeBob’s hands. It was stolen by a pirate named Burger Beard, played by Banderas, who is set on using it to open his own restaurant above seas. Stealing the recipe throws Bikini Bottom into mass hysteria. The
gang, accompanied with Plankton’s help, decides to take the fight on land and get the formula back, which would save Bikini Bottom’s economy. “The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water” is a return to the show’s creative form. The original creative crew, even series creator Stephen Hillenburg, returned for what is probably their last hurrah with the intellectual property. SpongeBob was the start of a concept later perfected by shows like “Adventure
Time” and “Regular Show.” It is known for jokes bordering adult humor, experimental and sometimes trippy animation and character development as good as a mature television show. The new film serves as both a return to this and a prize for fans of the original series. It does not dwell on old jokes, bringing originality with the older themes.
New SpongeBob film recaptures magic Jacob Pierce
@JacobPierce1_DE | Daily Egyptian
“SpongeBob Squarepants” was once a phenomenon. The first episode of SpongeBob sent a wave through the pop culture stratosphere, allowing adults and children alike to enjoy an animated series without prejudice. Then, the film adaptation was released in 2005 and the creative praise disappeared.

The Carbondale Terriers cheer during their game against Althoff Catholic on Friday. Though the Terriers lost 72-55, they are 20-4 and ranked sixth in Class 3A in Illinois as of Monday.
Terriers present best team in years Thomas Donley
@ TdonleyDE | Daily Egyptian
The Carbondale High School boys basketball team is passing its chemistry test this season. At 20-4 this season and 5-2 in the South Seven Conference, the Terriers are ranked No. 6 in Class 3A by the Illinois Associated Press as of Monday, and a likely lock for the top seed in the Illinois High School Association’s regional at Massac County High School in March. Four-year starting guard Allen Billinger said the Terriers’ synergy gives them an advantage. “We just stay together and trust each other,” Billinger said. “In
games and practice, everyone is on the same page.” Coach Jim Miller coached Carbondale to a fourth-place finish in the state finals in 2004 and second-place finish in 2005. He said this team could be better than those. “It’s funny because when we were making runs like that, I never thought our teams were very good,” Miller said. “I thought we were decent, but I never thought we were capable of finishing fourth or second until we actually got there.” Billinger, one of nine seniors on the team’s roster, said the Terriers’
maturity helped them defeat Murphysboro on Feb. 3. The Red Devils jumped out to an early lead, but Carbondale dominated the final three quarters for a 78-53 win. “We’re experienced, so we had confidence in ourselves,” Billinger said. “We got down, but it was no time to panic. It was the first quarter.” Forward Jordan Kelly, who has also started four years, said the win against Murphysboro was an example of the Terriers’ resilience and determination. Miller said the team’s most important characteristic is unselfishness. The Terriers do not have one or two players leading
the team in scoring every game. “That’s the number one ingredient to any championship team,” Miller said. “You have to have tremendous chemistry. You’ve got to have kids who don’t care about who gets the credit.” Carbondale’s firepower does not come only from its seniors. Freshman forward Darius Beane starts alongside four seniors. Miller said Beane, the son of SIU assistant coach Anthony Beane, Sr. and brother of SIU junior guard Anthony Beane, Jr., has matured into his role as the fifth starter. “I’ve had several freshmen start, but they started on mediocre or
average teams,” Miller said. “When you get a freshman starting on a pretty good team, that speaks well to that freshman. He understands his role, and he’s becoming an impact player for us.” Carbondale will be grouped with Herrin, Marion, Massac County and Murphysboro high schools in the IHSA’s Massac County Class 3A Regional, which starts March 3. The Terriers will seek revenge for last year’s 64-63 loss to Marion in the regional championship game. A regional title this year would be Miller’s ninth in 16 years at Carbondale.

March Madness starts in roughly a month, and the Kentucky Wildcats are still undefeated at 23-0. The last team to go undefeated through the postseason was Indiana in 1976. Kentucky has been ranked No. 1 all season. Will the Wildcats become the first team in nearly 40 years to retain a perfect record?
Aaron Graff
Kentucky will go undefeated. This is the greatest college basketball team ever. It held UCLA, an extremely respectable program, to 7 points in the first half. It held Kansas, an even more respectable program to 12 points in the second half. It held Missouri to 37 points in a game. Meanwhile, the Wildcats are scoring nearly double that. The only team with a chance to beat Kentucky is Duke, and the Blue Devils are more prone to an early upset in the tournament than the Wildcats.
Kentucky will not got undefeated. Sure, they’re a great team and UCLA coach Steve Alford said this Kentucky team was the greatest he ever coached against, but it is not like they have been blowing out every team they play. They’ve had too many close calls. For instance, Texas A and M, an unranked team, took them to double overtime. There is a reason no team has been undefeated since 1976. There is a larger pool of talent in and more athletic players in today’s college hoops. Even small and mid-major schools pull upsets all the time.
Brent Meske
Sean Phee
I don’t think Kentucky will stay undefeated because the Wildcats will have a huge target on their back come March Madness. They’ve handled ranked teams well but nearly faltered against 9-5 teams Ole Miss and Texas A&M in early January. The Rebels got it to overtime and the Aggies to double overtime. Kentucky needs to be careful in the opening rounds.
No. Seemingly every year we see the top team in the tournament go down a couple rounds before it should. I see no reason this year would be any different. This kind of success is nearly impossible to sustain over such a prolonged period. I see Kentucky stumbling in the Sweet Sixteen or Elite Eight.
