Glad grad

The prize is given each year to a senior who “has given conspicuous evidence of unselfishness and who has made the greatest contribution to Barnard during the college years.” President Barack Obama also addressed the graduating class, urging graduates to fight for women’s rights and stressing the importance of female leaders in society.

Chained at home

Gede, 28, stands in his room inside his family's home where he has been chained for years, on May 5 in Buleleng, Bali, Indonesia. Gede is shackled by his own family in order to control him. He went to school for nine years and has been to the mental hospital twice but escaped in 2006. Currently, he is monitored by the Suryani Institute for Mental Health, a nonprofit that cares for the mentally ill. The institute works to get all of their patients released but in some cases that's not feasible. Many poor families don't have money to pay for hospitalization or go to doctors, and inside the spiritual Balinese society there is often a stigma and misinformation about mental illness.
