of the group, said the emergency fund is for students dealing with crises, which is important given the economy.

“We don’t have enough conversations about the most at-risk students,” said Winstead, who is getting his doctorate in american studies at University of Maryland. “We don’t even have statistics about how many students are legitimately homeless... we all have a friend who is living on a friend’s couch that becomes a week, a month, a year. That person is homeless.”

Former United States Sen. Roland Burris, class of 1959, was also present at the reunion. He said he created the Roland Burris Endowment Fund for black students in need from Centralia or Chicago, but is open to more students if none apply.

“There are students living in poverty conditions and we are trying to uplift our whole race of people,” Burris said. “Those of us that have been fortunate enough to get a college education to compete in society in spite of racism, we have to make sure that our pipe line is still there.”

Albert Reed, coordinator for the Black Affairs Council, said the fund was necessary and amazing. He said he looked over the fund before the announcement and gave input to the alumni before it was finalized. He said the original version of the fund with stricter criteria only accepted applicants who are in good standing with the university and have at least a 2.5 GPA, but his input allowed it to be lowered to a 2.0.

“It’s a step to let it be known that there is help available regardless of your situation,” said Reed, a junior from Chicago studying radio and television. “That’s very, very important, especially among African American students.”

President Randy Dunn said he was excited to see alumni group create the fund.

“It’s desperately needed by so many students and this kind of last dollar support has been something we have been challenged to provide across the university for all types of students,” Dunn said. “The fact the [Black Alumni Group] has stepped up to address that on their own accord is very gratifying to see.”

Black alumni announce new fund amidst reunion The Black Alumni Group announced a new fund for black students in need Saturday, and was met with cheers from more than 1,000 students.

Tim Tyler, president of the group, announced the BAG Student Emergency Fund before a step show, or a dance competition involving the use of one’s body as a percussive instrument, amid the group’s biennial reunion held this weekend.

The reunion involved many events including a gala, a step show, a meeting with President Randy Dunn and his administration, a scholarship award ceremony and a school supply drop off for the Eurma C. Hayes Center, the Women’s Center and Hopewell Baptist Church.

Tyler, of Chicago, said the fund is available for students in need in good academic standing with a 2.0 GPA. “If you have a death in the family and can’t get home, we can get you a train ticket,” he said. “If your lights are off, if you have an emergency, we are helping you.”

Kevin Winstead, one of the vice presidents

J ordan d uncan | @jordanduncanDE Former Sen. Roland Burris, right, class of 1959, sifts through his book, “The Man Who Stood Up to Be Seated” with President Randy Dunn. Burris said he experienced racism when he attended SIU and wants the university to help protect students. “Black students couldn’t eat in restaurants downtown,” Burris said. “Had to sit in the balcony when they went to the movie. They couldn’t sit in a bar and drink a beer. They couldn’t sit in a bar and relax. There were four places where blacks could eat in those days.” Dunn attended a forum with the Black Alumni Group. “We want to make sure that everybody is representing the face of the university,” Dunn said Sunday. “Whether it’s an individual such as myself, the president and active chancellor, whether it’s our academic advisors, whether it’s our police, whether it’s our people on the front lines.”

“We don’t have enough conversations about the most atrisk students. We don’t even have statistics about how many students are legitimately homeless...”

Dylann Roof charged with hate crime in Charleston church shooting TimoThy PhelPs | Tribune Washington Bureau The U.S. government announced Wednesday the indictment of 21-year-old Dylann Roof on federal hate crime charges, adding a civil rights dimension to the state murder charges already filed by South Carolina authorities in the June 17 killing of nine African-American worshippers in Charleston.

A federal grand jury in Charleston indicted Roof on suspicion of using a weapon in a racially motivated hate crime and committing murder in an attempt to obstruct victims’ free exercise of their religious beliefs. The second charge carries the possibility of a federal death sentence, though it has been rarely invoked.

Attorney General Loretta Lynch said at a news conference that no decision had been made on whether to seek the death penalty for Roof. But the new charges increase the likelihood that Roof might be prosecuted in federal, rather than state, court.

Roof was previously charged with nine counts of murder in Charleston state court, where he also faces the death penalty.

“To carry out [his] twin goals of fanning racial flames and exacting revenge, Roof ... decided to seek out and murder African-Americans because of their race,” Lynch said. “An essential element of his plan, however, was to find his victims inside of a church, specifically an African-American church, to ensure the greatest

notoriety and attention to his actions.”

Authorities say Roof shot to death nine people during a Bible study class at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston.

Roof walked into the church carrying a Glock .45-caliber pistol with eight magazines loaded with hollow-point bullets, which are designed to do maximum damage.

Because South Carolina has no hate crime law, victims’ families and fellow congregants at Emanuel AME had called for Roof’s purported racial motivation to be formally addressed by bringing federal charges against him.

Lynch said it had not been decided who would prosecute Roof first. For now both cases will

proceed simultaneously, and the final decision will take into consideration the desire “to reduce any unnecessary burden on the families,” she said.

In high-profile cases, it is not uncommon for federal prosecutors to bring their own charges.

“The point of this is simply to be there as a backup in case something goes wrong with the state prosecution, but it is also a statement of our national extreme concern over the horrors of the crime,” said William Yeomans, an American University law professor and a former top civil rights official at the Justice Department. “It’s a strong statement that racially motivated violence will be dealt with harshly, not only by the state, but by the federal government.”

P rovided B y C hiCago T riBune Amy Blagojevich, left, reacts as her mother Patti Blagojevich speaks during a news conference on Tuesday, July 21, 2015, following the announcement of a federal appeals court in Chicago throwing out five of 18 counts against former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, vacating his 14-year sentence and ordering him retried on the five counts. Attorney Sheldon Sorosky is at right.

Some Rod Blagojevich convictions tossed Jason Meisner and BoB seCTer Chicago Tribune More than three years ago, Rod Blagojevich stood with his family on the steps of his Chicago bungalow and vowed to dozens of supporters to fight to overturn his conviction on corruption charges and his 14-year prison sentence.

On Tuesday, 1,224 days after the disgraced former governor checked in to a federal prison in Colorado, his lawyers staged a news conference at the same spot on the Northwest Side.

This time, however, there were no cheering crowds or autographs to be signed. The pained look on the faces of Blagojevich’s wife, Patti, and 18-yearold daughter, Amy, spoke volumes.

In a long-awaited ruling just hours earlier, a federal appeals court in Chicago threw out five of the 18 counts against Blagojevich and ordered

his sentence vacated. The threejudge panel tempered the small legal victory by calling the evidence against Blagojevich “overwhelming” and making it clear he will likely remain locked up for years to come.

The same judge who imposed the original sentence – a frequent target of the defense for his alleged unfairness – will still decide his punishment.

Calling her husband an eternal optimist, a somber Patti Blagojevich said she broke news of the ruling to the former governor, who is more than three years into his sentence.

“This has been a long road for our family. We’ve waited a long time for this decision. We are very disappointed,” Patti told reporters. “There’s been so much in the last 3 1/2; years that Rod’s missed – high school graduations, proms, birthdays – and so if there’s any silver lining for us it’s that possibly this

is a step in the right direction to getting him home with us and with his girls where he belongs.”

As she listened, Amy began to cry, resting her head on her mom’s shoulder.

Blagojevich’s lawyers blasted the ruling as legally unsound and said they’d consider asking the full 7th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals to rehear the case or possibly filing an appeal before the U.S. Supreme Court – both considered long shots at best.

The ruling came 19 months after oral argument, and at 23 pages, it was surprisingly concise. Its author, Judge Frank Easterbrook, said the court could have produced “a booklength opinion” because of the complexities of Blagojevich’s two trials but chose to stick to “the most important facts” and the “principal arguments” of the lawyers.

‘Trainwreck’ makes Schumer new face of comedy Jacob Wiegand | @JacobWiegand_DE

Time and time again we have seen the typical, formulaic romantic comedy, but Amy Schumer brings us a new, gutbusting look at the “rom-com.”

“Trainwreck” (Rated R; 125 min) directed by Judd Apatow, brings together a stellar cast, hilarious dialogue and solid direction to culminate as one of the best comedies in recent memory.

Growing up with a “monogamy isn’t realistic” preaching father, Amy Townsend, played

by Schumer, finds herself moving through meaningless relationships, never having the desire to really settle down.

However, when avid sportshating Amy is assigned a magazine profile on sports doctor Aaron Conners, played by Bill Hader, she finds a new set of feelings she did not expect. She begins to see Aaron like she has never seen a partner before and this newfound experience causes Amy to question the entirety of her situation.

Amy is not afraid to let the

audience know who she is or what she thinks. Descriptions of sexual encounters come with vivid frankness. If Amy dislikes something, even something as conventional as sports or sleeping with someone after sex, she lets the audience take full note. Many of these situations lead to some of the funniest dialogue in the film.

Directed by renowned comedy filmmaker Apatow, “Trainwreck” does not merely aim for being ordinary, but strives to be a step above. And thankfully, the film does not disappoint. In addition to the witty and often explicit script written by the film’s leading-lady, “Trainwreck” is not afraid to take on an emotional theme or serious situation.

Amy and her sister Kim, played by Brie Larson, have a complicated relationship with their father, played by Colin Quinn. When Amy and Kim have to move their father, who suffers from multiple sclerosis, to an assisted living center, we find that Kim does not share many of the same sentimental feelings toward her father that her sister exhibits.

While neither sister believes her father to be saintly, Amy holds a

much fonder connection.

This theme of the unflattering father versus caring daughter and resentful daughter relationship sets the film apart from most comedies. Amy and Kim’s differing views of their father is, in many ways, the primary source of conflict in the film and the its key driver of emotion.

Despite the film’s many strong points, it has a rather typical ending for a romantic comedy. I will refrain from saying more for the sake of spoilers. While the ending is not necessarily bad, it does not do anything surprising and, in comparison to the rest of the film, falls short.

Schumer has been creating a lot of buzz in the entertainment world lately with her Comedy Central series “Inside Amy Schumer,” which wrapped up its third season earlier this month.

The show has often been praised for its hilarious skits which often tackle themes dealing with the role of women in media.

Whether or not you are familiar with Schumer, as I was not until recently, “Trainwreck” is a film sure to solidify her presence in the world of comedy for years to come.

‘Shenmue III’ breaks records and females get their due granT Meyer | @GrantMeyerDe It was a relatively slow week for news in the gaming industry. But, there was more on the Kojima versus Konami controversy and a win for female representation in sports and games.

Kojima shows signs he knew of his departure in his previous game “Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain” is the anticipated sequel to the high quality stealthaction series set to release on Sept. 1.

This is creator and gaming icon Hideo Kojima’s final Metal Gear game. He is set to depart Konami, the game’s publisher, upon the game’s release because of controversy between himself and the company.

While the public does not know what has transpired between Kojima and Konami, it is clear there was some drama or disagreement going on between the two.

Before anyone knew there was contention between the two parties, Kojima might’ve given a

hint of his departure in his most recently released game, “Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes.”

This was spotted by Gamesradar. com on July 20, during a mission in the game. In this mission, the player is tasked with running around a base erasing logos found in the environment of all Metal Gear games directed under Kojima.

Upon removing them all, a message plays saying, “You might be able to erase the markings but the memories will never disappear.”

A second message from Kojima himself is given to the player thanking them for all their support.

There’s no way to know for sure if this was Kojima foreshadowing the dramatic events around Metal Gear these past few months, but it certainly seems to imply the issues have been going on for a long while.

‘The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt” patch 1.07 released CD Projekt RED, the creators of the Witcher series, have been known for supporting their games

long after launch.

Since releasing the masterpiece quality game, “The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt,” they have released one or two pieces of free downloadable content for the game every week.

They also plan to have two expansion packs for the game later in the year, which combined will add up to the length of the previous game in the series, “The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings.”

The trend continued this past week in a big way. On July 19, patch 1.07 was introduced to the game with a myriad of tweaks and gameplay improvements.

The standout improvements are a much more manageable inventory system, a more reactive and responsive movement system for controlling the avatar and a place for the players to store valuable items.

‘Shenmue III’ kickstarter breaks records The Shenmue games are a cult classic series. The last game in the series was “Shenmue II” in 2001.

The game left us on a cliff hanger and fans have been wanting a sequel for 14 years.

Most people assumed the franchise was over with, but at Sony’s press conference, at the Electronic Entertainment Expo, they surprised fans by announcing a kickstarter for “Shenmue III.” Kickstarer.com is a website where creators can put up their ideas and promote it, allowing anyone to help fund their projects.

As of July 17, “Shenmue III” broke the record for most funded video game in kickstarter history.

The exact number at the kickstarter’s completion was $6,333,295, beating out the previous record of $5,545,991, held by “Bloodstained.”

This is surprising given the franchise never sold very well.

This project’s existence at all is also surprising, but situations like this are exactly what kickstarter is for.

Clearly there is enough interest for this game to fund it and break a few records along the way.

The game’s kickstarter fund also reached $1 million faster than any other video game fund.

Yu Suzuki, the creator of the series, had this to say to all those

who helped fund for the project, “You and I have had a shared dream for the past 14 years. Now it is time to make our dream of Shenmue III a reality.”

‘Fifa 16’ to include female players on cover “Fifa 16” is the next entry in the popular soccer simulator from EA Sports.

This entry in the series stands out because for the first time it will feature playable female athletes.

While this is a big deal in and of itself, EA Sports is taking it to the next level and will now feature female players on the cover of the game alongside soccer superstar Lionel Messi of Futbol Club Barcelona and the Argentina national football team.

Recent women’s World Cup champion Alex Morgan will appear on the cover in the United States. Christine Sinclair will appear on the cover in Canada.

In Australia, a poll was taken and Steph Catley won.

This is great news for both women and gaming as the industry becomes more inclusive to all people.

ALUMNI CONTINUED FROM

Dunn said the aid the fund provides is the most difficult type to make available, but without that support, an emergency such as loss of a job or car may cause students to leave school.

“The whole goal is to look for a means to keep students in school when these emergency types of things crop up,” Dunn said Sunday at the reunion’s closing breakfast.

Dunn and his administration held a meeting with group where the alumni could voice concerns for black students at the university.

Multiple alumni commended Dunn’s honesty.

“His candor was magnificent and the dialogue was productive,” Tyler said. “We had some great takeaways from it. That’s what our alumni come here for.“ Tyler said, among other topics, the group discussed safety, representation and how black males are perceived on and off campus.

The Rev. Joseph Brown, a professor at SIU for 18 years, said he attended the meeting, but was disappointed some critical issues were not addressed, including retention and graduation rates.

“You can interpret any statistic any way you want to, but I don’t see anything to be proud of with a 30 percent graduation rate in black students after six years,” Brown said.

He said in five years, the university has not increased the number of trained and culturally competent advisor staff, an issue which he said Dunn mentioned.

“I’m not saying black even though that is a crisis,” Brown said. “I’m saying culturally competent. Because we are not doing any cultural competency training.”

Dunn said though the percentage of employees of color have remained stable, raw numbers have dwindled and acknowledged the university has an unsatisfactory representation for people of color in decision making positions at the university.

“That’s where we’ve got to work in some more aggressive ways,” Dunn said. “To have better representation of minority groups in those decision making roles.”

Dunn said improving the cultural competency of university staff is not a simple fix but is a continuing process for any large organization.

He said hiring people of color in upper-level positions will help students of color come to and stay at SIU as they will be properly represented.

In addition, two scholarships of $2,500 each were awarded to Shatoyria Jangjirawat, a senior from Cairo studying accounting, and Xzavier Lee, a junior from Memphis, Tenn. studying computer science. Twenty other students received $500 book scholarships as well.

The alumni group also brought school supplies to the Eurma C. Hayes Center and the Women’s Center Friday for children who may not be able to get them as easily.

Corene McDaniel, a former city council member and director of the center, said she was excited when she first received contact from the group.

“I got the call months and months ago asking if we would be the recipients of that and I almost fell out of my chair,” McDaniel said. ”It was absolutely wonderful. It’s quite an honor to be singled out to be one of their recipients this year.”

Tyler said the group wanted to help underserved children in Carbondale.

“It’ll help students out, it’ll help the center out,” Tyler said. “It’ll help the teachers because they’ll know the students have supplies so they can focus on the teaching instead of making sure students have supplies.”

The center will also hold a day where children who will attend school soon may receive teeth cleanings, haircuts and the school supplies at 1 p.m. on Aug. 1 at the center.

“The community supports the black alumni reunion,” Tyler said. “So this is the way of showing Carbondale that even though we are going other places we still like to maintain our relationship with the community.”

The women of Delta Sigma Theta sorority, who placed second among women, perform in the step show Saturday. Their performance featured a retrospective featuring music fr Former Sen. Roland Burris shows his book to Kia Smith, right, a junior from Chicago studying journalism, and Rashionda Carlisle, a senior from Belleville studying social work. Burris said the reason he has passion for SIU is it gave him the tools he needed for his career, but he wants to ensure black students after him have similar opportunities. “There is racism in our society,” Burris said. “There are students living in poverty conditions and we are trying to uplift our whole race of people. Those of us that have been fortunate enough to get a college education to compete in society in spite of racism, we have to make sure that our pipe line is still there.”
