Students, faculty and community gathered on a sunny winter afternoon to pay tribute to Hatoon Victoria Adkins. Adkins, a long time resident at the campus, was killed on Tuesday as she was crossing Franklin Boulevard on her bicycle. Most recently, Adkins, 67, had made her home on a bench just outside the University Bookstore, where she covered her things with a blue tarp. In the days since her demise, Adkins’ bench has evolved into a shrine with flowers, candles and tubes of lipstick, which she loved.
