"That's why I'm here, to get off the res," he said. "There's a tribal college at home, but I am not too excited about going to school back home. It's more studious here."
Collins said his sister had

"I'm one step closer to my goals," he said.
Browning will graduate in May and work in Lawrence this summer on the Off-Campus Resource Center. In August, he wants to find a job in political organizing or political advocacy.
He said that he will continue his work from his time as student body vice president on class diversity and
recycling and environmental issues.
Mills and Browning were both hesitant to define the legacy they will leave.
"As a historian, I know you can't really define the situation when you're still in the moment," Mills said. "I'll leave it to the students and institutional memory to decide our legacy."

10 years after riots trust in LA police low
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — A decade after the city's worst riots, half of its residents say race relations have gotten better, but trust in the police is still shaky in minority communities, according to a Los Angeles Times poll released yesterday.
A survey of 1,288 adults, 262 of them black, showed that 50 percent overall found race relations better, with higher marks in the white and Hispanic communities. Just 36 percent of blacks, however, found race relations better.
The rioting began April 29, 1992, after four white police officers were acquitted of the videotaped beating of black motorist Rodney King. Fires and looting lasted four days and left 55 dead and more than 2,000 injured. The
mayhem caused $1 billion in property damage.
Although a majority of those surveyed said the Los Angeles Police Department was doing an impressive job holding down crime, 66 percent of Hispanics and 65 percent of blacks believe that police brutality is common. Only 28 percent of whites thought so.
Another 65 percent of blacks said racist feelings were common among LAPD officers, while 68 percent of Hispanics agreed. Forty-eight percent of whites believed such feelings were common among police.
The Times poll also found that 71 percent of whites said the fires and looting were rightfully called riots, while only 35 percent of blacks and 38 percent of Hispanics thought so.
