A crowd gathers as the Chris Canas Band begins playing Thursday, July 2, 2015 at Turley Park for the 37th annual Sunset Concert series organized by the Student Programming Council. Tim Porter, 30, attended the concert and said the series is important to Carbondale. It’s more than just the music that’s coming out being able to socialize with people that are there, he said. The music is almost secondary for what’s going on. Porter said he was born and raised in Carbondale, and is a longtime attendee of the annual concert series. The amount of people that changes from year to year when you come out is just amazing to me, he said.

Asia Lee, a masters student in business administration from Chicago, speaks to Lamont Blackman, a senior from Chicago studying aviation, while students gather on the steps of Shryock Auditorium on Wednesday, Nov. 9, 2016, before a group reflection with Rev. Joseph Brown in response to Donald Trumps presidency. The reflection began with a performance of Amazing Grace and ended with speeches from Brown and Lee. Are we not feeling today like weve been thrown back in the bottom of a ship on our way to somewhere dangerous and death-inducing? said Brown, a professor of Africana Studies. So somebody suggested, even in the darkest hour, lets get together with just a little bit of light and find a way to tell each other you may have been blind, but oh, now you see.
