Non-tenure track faculty eligible for promotion can apply this year By Samantha Ye @samxye4
Earlier this year, they said that something had to give. Something did. All eligible non-tenure track faculty at Colorado State University can apply for a promotion starting this 2019-20 school year. This marks another significant step in changing the classi-
fications and prospects of NTTF appointments at the University. Over 285 NTTF are eligible to apply for promotions this fall, according to Vice Provost for Faculty Affairs Daniel Bush. CSU typically processes about 70 to 90 tenure track or tenure promotions per year, so if all NTTF take this opportunity to apply this year, the University will be tasked with processing
over four times as many applications as they are accustomed to by next spring. New University President Joyce McConnell noted in an email that this increase would put pressure on the chairs, colleges and the University. As such, CSU will convene a campus-wide committee to guide and assist the process. McConnell wrote that the
committee will create structures to support faculty, their department chairs and deans to understand the promotion process for NTTF and “operationalize it to be efficient and fair.” Members will be composed of representatives from the Provost’s Office, Faculty Council, department chairs,

On Friday night, fans from different sides of the Centennial State will make their way down to Denver for the final rendition of the Rocky Mountain Showdown at Mile High Stadium. The University of Colorado and Colorado State University football teams will both be aiming to start their 2019 campaigns on a winning note. A season ago, the Buffaloes dominated the Rams in a convincing 45-13 victory, but that game didn’t reflect the team’s season, as both teams sunk to under a .500 overall record. Now, with the final game in Denver set, can the Rams get revenge against their instate rival? More importantly, can the Rams snap a four-year losing streak against the black and gold? Here’s a deep dive into the pivotal matchups that will determine if the Rams can dethrone the Buffs.

President Joyce McConnell ‘proud to be the first woman to serve’ By Laura Studley @laurastudley_
Joyce McConnell is history in the making. As the first female president at Colorado State University, President McConnell has traded in West Virginia University’s blue and gold for CSU’s green and gold. “I am proud to be the first woman to serve as president of CSU,” wrote McConnell in a letter to The Collegian. “Why am I proud? Women are powerful, and women are smart, and they can lead extraordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things. As the president of CSU, I really get to demonstrate that — and I’m proud to do so.” Background McConnell grew up going to museums and historical sites, experiencing major events and protests from the 1960s and ‘70s, such as Watergate and Martin Luther King Jr.’s march on Washington. “My parents, both military veterans, encouraged us children to get out of the house, explore the world and learn everything we could,” McConnell wrote. “So from a really young age, I have thought of myself as an explorer and adventurer, whether in the pages of a book, in the museums in D.C., on a hiking trail or just in my imagination.”
She headed west to attend Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington — 2,800 miles away from her hometown in Maryland, located just outside of Washington, D.C. In 1979, she graduated with an undergraduate degree. In 1995, McConnell traveled from her hometown in Maryland to pursue a position as an assistant professor of law at WVU. In 2008, she was appointed dean of the law school, improving upon both the school and the building, according to SOURCE. In six years, she fundraised $38 million for the building’s renovation and expansion. After graduation, she pursued a career in law, finishing her degree from Antioch Law School in 1982 and also completing a Master of Laws from Georgetown University Law Center. From there, she began working at a private practice before being named a graduate teaching fellow at the same institution she acquired her ML. With both teaching and leading experience under her belt, she was asked to become provost of WVU. At first, she was less than enthusiastic. She wanted to remain the dean of the law school. It took much convincing, but she finally agreed to accept the position in 2014. She is now married with a daughter, Alexandra McCon-
nell-Trivelli. The CSU presidency Becoming the president of CSU is no small feat, but McConnell is up for the challenge. She places importance on diversity and inclusion, agriculture, athletics and fundraising. As a long-time LGBTQ+ advocate, McConnell provided a safe space for students at WVU. During her time as a law professor, LGBTQ+ students did not feel comfortable enough to gather together on campus, according to T. Anne Hawkins, clinical director of the WVU counseling center, so McConnell opened up her home for their meetings. Agriculture has been a large part of CSU since its establishment in 1870, as seen in the original name — Colorado Agricultural College. The land-grant mission is a foundational piece of the University because of the financial contribution in the founding of CSU. President McConnell says she will be combining the knowledge she received from working with the agricultural community as provost at WVU and her devotion to the land-grant mission to maintain the fundamental values for CSU. Coming from a Division I school, McConnell supports the role athletics have on a college campus. She wrote that she believes

they bring a sense of community and include people who wouldn’t normally gather to celebrate. Students, staff, faculty, parents and alumni are able to come together in support of their team and school. President McConnell has been a primary fundraiser in different campaigns at WVU, including raising money for the renovation and expansion of the building that housed the law school. One of her larger fundraising successes was helping raise $1.2 billion for WVU’s “State of Minds” campaign. To begin this new chapter, McConnell wants to embrace old philosophies she has stood by
throughout her life — believing in and respecting people and providing the resources for people to achieve their dreams and aspirations. “What makes me proud to be a CSU Ram is the people who make up this incredible learning community,” McConnell wrote. “We are committed to sustainability, to ensuring access to education and to figuring out how we can work together — in the classroom, in the lab, out in the field — to develop innovations and solutions to some of our world’s toughest challenges.” Laura Studley can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Faculty >> from page 1 Human Resources, Internal Communications and representatives for NTTF and TTF. Prior to the changes revealed this spring, many NTTF could not access any promotional pathways, typically because of degree requirements or college codes. That means there are NTTF members who worked at CSU for over a decade and were never promoted, said Jenny Morse, chair of the committee for NTTF. This was a problem for both career fulfillment and salary compensation (promotions come with a 10% raise). NTTF have been vocal about their insufficient wages, most recently with a petition and protest last semester. Around 2013, CSU created a
“senior teaching appointment” to recognize outstanding NTTF, but despite a rigorous review process, this was not a “true” promotion. It could come with a 5% raise, but few did, Bush said. The College of Liberal Arts used the STA type most frequently, but it was not used commonly by all colleges. New promotional paths and appointment types, fully written into department codes this spring, opened up promotional pathways for the nearly 300 NTTF who have been at CSU for at least five years. As this is a large number, there was talk of accepting promotion packages in phases (i.e. one group of NTTF can apply the first year, then another group the next, etc.). Morse said this was a serious problem for NTTF who did not want to see their opportunity continually delayed and were not sure of what criteria the Provost’s Office intended to use
to decide who could apply first. Ultimately, after close consultation with the academic leadership of CSU, President McConnell wrote that they determined it is in the University’s best interest to allow everyone who meets the five-year in-rank requirement to apply this year.
“To do this effectively and fairly, we must all agree to work together to be successful.” JOYCE MCCONNELL COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT
While there are downsides to taking in that many promotions, McConnell noted there is “clearly an upside to having all non-tenure-track faculty be
eligible simultaneously, as this contributes to (the) retention of our talented non-tenuretrack faculty, greater stability for the University and — most importantly — an improved learning experience for our students.” The promotion process will be parallel to what tenure track faculty go through for their promotions, meaning submission of promotion package material in fall and an extensive review and recommendation process. Certain details will still vary, as NTTF appointments focus on only teaching or research while TTF are expected to do both. NTTF promotions will come with 10% pay raises, just as TTF, and it will be based on the new salary floor, also unveiled this spring. The floor is $45,000 this fiscal year for NTTF with terminal degrees. STAs were automatically given the 10% raise August 2019 and moved into the new rank
of senior instructor. STAs who previously received a 5% raise received just a 5% raise to make it a net 10% increase. The STA position no longer exists, but CSU wants to honor its STA application process as comparable to an approved promotion, Bush said. The cost of promoting all eligible NTTF will be somewhere around $1.75 million, Bush said. The University, along with the new support committee for the promotions, will hold a series of Campus Conversations this fall about its decision. “This is an opportunity for us as a University to stack hands to commit to working together,” McConnell wrote. “We may make mistakes along the way, but they will be mistakes made with goodwill as we try to navigate a daunting but ultimately extremely rewarding challenge.” Samantha Ye can be reached at news@collegian.com.

CSU Health Center offers medical, counseling services on campus By Delaney Allen @DelaneyAllen0
Students can find many of their medical, mental health and sexual health needs met on the southeast corner of campus. The Hartshorn building, north of Braiden Hall and east of the Colorado State University Recreation Center, used to conduct on-campus medical services. Now, the health hub is the CSU Health Center, located at 151 W. Lake St. Kate Hagdorn, the associate director of communications for the CSU Health Network, said in a 2018 Collegian article that the purpose of the CSU Health Network is to support student success through the different resources available. The CSU Health Center website, as well as the CSU website and other portals like RamWeb, are a way for students to connect to useful resources on campus. “I think that it’s important for students to remember that there are resources across campus, not just within the CSU Health Network, that can support their well-being,” Hagdorn said. “Student well-being is a University priority. It doesn’t just live at the Health Center.” Counseling Counseling services are available upon request at the CSU Health Center. Students seeking support must visit Counseling Services on the third floor of the Health Center, where they will meet with an on-call therapist who will connect them to the support services that are best for them. Student fees provide access to a wide array of mental health
support services at no extra cost to students. These services include individual and couples sessions, online services, groups, workshops and crisis support. Medical appointments can be scheduled through health.colostate.edu. Relaxation pods After a renovation in the summer of 2017, the Health Center now offers amenities such as a “relaxation pod” and a reflection room. The relaxation pods and reflection room are intended to help students reduce stress during the school year, said Viviane Ephraimson-Abt, manager of resiliency and well-being initiatives for the CSU Health Network, in a 2017 Collegian article. The in-pod sessions are limited to 20 minutes at a time. Ephraimson-Abt also recommends calling ahead at 970495-5246 to reserve a pod. Workshops The Health Center offers a wide range of workshops, such as therapy groups, stress-management workshops and skill-building workshops. Students can check the Health Center website throughout the semester to see workshop dates and more information. Sexual health The Health Center runs a program for discounted testing for chlamydia and gonorrhea during the Get Yourself Tested campaign, which will be announced at a later date. The CSU Health Network educates students on consent, STIs, contraceptive methods and campus resources. Free condoms are always available throughout the Sexual Health Initiative, according to a

2019 Collegian article. The Health Center offers gender-specialized care, including women’s, men’s and transgender care. Vaccinations The CSU Health Center recommends that students receive their flu shot every year during flu season, especially during fall and winter months, and they provide immunization services for all students, according to
their website. Current immunization records are required for admission. Students who file an exemption from vaccinations for personal, medical or religious reasons may be subject to quarantine or exclusion from campus in the case of an outbreak. Immunizations are given to students on both an appointment and walk-in basis. More information about
vaccinations and exemptions can be found in a Health Alert published on the Health Center’s website. Correction: This article has been updated to reflect current Health Center policies and services. Delaney Allen can be reached at news@collegian.com.

ALVS helps non-traditional students navigate college By Ravyn Cullor @RCullor99
While many students starting this fall are transitioning from high school to college, many others have followed a different path to higher education. These students are known as non-traditional students. Lisa Chandler, assistant director of the Adult Learner and Veteran Services office, says non-traditional students can include students over 23, student-parents and any other student who feels they do not fit with the traditional-age student population. “We are extremely excited to get another fall semester underway,” ALVS Director Marc Barker wrote in an email to The Collegian. “Our goal is that adult learners will find a community in ALVS that is designed to specifically meet their needs.” Chandler said many of the students they serve don’t necessarily need a different set of resources than traditional-age students, but often just don’t know how to access and use what is available.
“It’s important (nontraditional students) know that there’s a lot of students out there that fit in this population and that there’s a lot of support.” LISA CHANDLER ASSISTANT DIRECTOR, ALVS
“A lot of our (non-traditional) students might not know the system of college; they’re often first-generation students,” Chandler said. “A lot of students talk themselves out of things before even finding out if there’s a way they could be tailor-made for them.” The main resource non-traditional students need help accessing is financial assistance, Chandler said. For students coming from non-traditional paths, access to FAFSA and scholarships can be hindered by misunderstandings and misconceptions, she said. On top of these challenges, many non-traditional students have families or jobs and often lose access to other resources because they aren’t built for their schedules. “Our students are trying to be the most effective and efficient with the time they have on campus,” Chandler said.
Students study in the Adult Learner and Veteran Services center on May 3. Assistant Director Lisa Chandler said that ALVS serves a population of about 7,000 undergraduate and graduate students. PHOTO BY RYAN SCHMIDT COLLEGIAN
“Sometimes opportunities and activities are not quite as conducive to non-traditional students.” The ALVS is designed not to provide resources, Chandler said, but to help non-traditional students navigate the existing resources and build a community of students with similar experiences. The office does provide a number of resources tailored for non-traditional students’ needs, including a short-term childcare center in the Morgan Library called Ram Kidz and a tutoring program that fits better with their schedules. The ALVS also brings in a caseworker from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs once a week to help student-veterans access VA resources. A peer adviser program through the office also helps connect non-traditional students with students who have “walked-the-walk.” Chandler said while the administration of the office can offer advice to students, the specific insights on student life provided by a peer who has been down the same path has a lot of value. Chandler said the most important things the ALVS does for non-traditional students are encouraging them to engage

on campus and building a community to help them surmount “roadblocks the students might have put up thinking that a service isn’t for them.” “A lot of our non-tradition-
al students might think that they are the only one because they’re in a class and they don’t see a lot of other students like them,” Chandler said. “It’s important they know that there’s
a lot of students out there that fit in this population and that there’s a lot of support.” Ravyn Cullor can be reached at news@collegian.com.

The pedestrian, a 19-yearold Colorado State University freshman, hit in a vehicle-pedestrian crash Monday is currently on life support and awaiting possible donation of his organs, according to statements made by the University and his family. The student, Anthony “TJ” Avery, was transported to the UCHealth Medical Center of the Rockies with serious injuries Monday night. On Wednesday evening, UCHealth released the following statement from Avery’s family: “Thank you to the CSU and Northern Colorado community for your support during this very difficult time. We are working closely with Donor Alliance in the hopes that our son can become an organ donor to help other patients in need. We recognize there is a lot of interest at this time, but we respectfully
request privacy for our family.” The investigation into the crash is ongoing. Resources are available to students who need support through difficult events like this.

Overflow housing is going to be used for only a short time this fall. In 2018, 100 students were assigned to overflow housing due to the 2022 class being the largest Colorado State University had ever seen. This year, 6,400 students moved into the residence halls during move-in, said Tonie Miyamoto, director of communications and sustainability. Only seven students were assigned to overflow housing. “As we process last-minute cancellations and no-shows, we anticipate that these students will be assigned permanent spaces very soon,” Miyamoto said. CSU is working on a new housing project that will stand in place of Aylesworth. This new development, Meridian Village, is still early in the planning process. “The Board of Governors

approved the [Meridian Village] program plan on August 9,” Miyamoto said. “We still don’t have details like number of beds, construction schedule, costs, etc. as the program plan is
still in development, and it will go back to BOG in October for financing approval.” Laura Studley can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Rocky Mountain Showdown ‘offensive’ title to be renamed By Ethan Vassar @ethan_vassar
Editor’s Note: This is a satire piece from The Collegian’s opinion section. Real names may be used in fictitious/semi-fictitious ways. Those who do not read the editor’s notes are subject to being offended. FORT COLLINS — This may be the last year that the gridiron battle between the two most popular colleges for kids from California — Colorado State University and the University of Colorado Boulder — goes by the Rocky Mountain Showdown. A proposal to rename the football game is currently under review by Colorado’s board of NCAA directors. If approved, the rivalry between Colorado’s two biggest schools could be known by a much different name as early as next year. The idea to rename the rivalry game was proposed by CSU liberal arts professor Patricia Connors. The idea of a name change came to Connors after being bombarded with emails and social media posts from CSU fans about this being the last year they will get their ass
handed to them by CU’s football team. With the game moving to new turf, Connors believed it’s the perfect time to change the name of the match up to something less, as she believes, offensive. “All three words — trigger warning for saying each — rocky, mountain and showdown, are offensive or impudent in some way,” Connors explained. Connors finds it unacceptable that such a big event, especially one involving a liberal minded institution like CSU, could continue to go by such an insulting name. For those who don’t see it her way, Connors offered explanations as to why each word is as offensive as it is. “‘Rocky’ can be an offensive term when describing mountains. You wouldn’t call a person who is weightily challenged fat, so why would you call a mountain rocky?” After demanding an answer to what seemed like a rhetorical question, Connors moved on to explaining the issues with mountain and showdown. “The word ‘mountain’ could be offensive to those who have went through, know someone or have
been in the same room as someone who has experienced a mountain climbing accident,” Connors said. “And ‘showdown’ is just too violent of a word to use in today’s society.” Connors followed up this statement with another question that seemed rhetorical, yet she demanded an answer to it. “What kind of world are we teaching our children to grow up in if we are referring to sports with such vicious and brutal words such as ‘showdown?’” she asked. Connors has not offered any new names for the football game if her proposal is approved by Colorado’s governing board of NCAA directors. She believes it may be impossible to find any words that aren’t offensive to any group or object that also could accurately describe the game. If that is the case, CSU may never play CU in a football game ever again. The Collegian implores you, the reader, to send suggestions to rename the Rocky Mountain Showdown.

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual authors only and does not represent a stance taken by the Collegian or its editorial board. It’s hard to avoid the fact that a big election is looming on the horizon — there will be lots of choices to be made. Many students will be bombarded by people on campus telling them which issues they should care about and vote for. Student debt, gun control and healthcare are only a few of the problems that affect students. While all of these issues are big concerns and definitely things to be thinking about, the literal world is dying, and every vote should be focused on that. Don’t get it twisted — over the next 20 years, our society is going to deal with all those other issues, and many more, in order to help our country grow. But, if we don’t do something, like right now, about halting our national carbon footprint and immense
waste output, then all those other things won’t really matter in 50 years when the effects of climate change push all into early graves. The end may be near, but there is still much that can be done to extend our time on this blue marble. The vast majority of it needs to be done in Washington, D.C. As individuals, we can all do our part to help the planet, but the vast majority of carbon output and pollution comes from large scale corporate actions. It’s those actions that need to be reigned in by regulations in order for meaningful change to occur. The only place those types of big regulations are going to begin are with a Democrat. President Trump is likely the red choice for the 2020 election, and, not to add to his impressively long list of cons, he stands solidly against Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s “Green New Deal,” calling it a “roadmap to destroy the American Economy.” Not every Democrat is as passionate about this issue, and not every Democrat sees this as one of their biggest priorities — stay informed on all the candidates and their policies and don’t vote for those Democrats. If you care about stopping cli-

mate change, vote. For example, gun control on a national level doesn’t happen for several reasons. The clearest reason is because people who like guns vote consistently. Gallup says that 61% of U.S. citizens want stricter gun laws and only 8% want less strict. Then how do they keep winning that fight? They vote for it, and they vote for it every time. If you care about saving the planet, you must vote for it every election and encourage others to as well. In this next election and the following elections until our future is secured against natural disaster, people need to vote based on this issue and this issue alone. It’s time to rally together as one and show our government that we aren’t willing to watch the Earth die as corporations kill it. To be a little dramatic, our current quality of life on Earth might be starting to decline. If that’s not something to throw all of your voting weight behind, then I don’t know what is. This next year, get out and vote for the Earth. I don’t want to imagine the cost if you don’t. Fynn Bailey can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

Showdown >> from page 1 surrounding starting quarterback Collin Hill. Hill, who is only starting in his eighth game, experienced his first full offseason since his freshmen season. For the first time in his entire collegiate career, Hill will get to line up under center as the leader of the program. CSU’s fans will finally get to see if the hype surrounding the 6-foot-5inch quarterback is real. This season, CU lacks experience in the secondary, and it could be an area of weakness for Hill to try and exploit throughout the game. If Hill is able to find success with his receiving corps early and often, CSU’s offense can put a lot of points on the board. Look for CSU to try and get a lot of action going through the air in this one. CSU O-line vs. CU D-line Much like CU’s secondary, CSU’s biggest concern is on the offensive line. Going into his second season as the offensive line coach, Dave Johnson’s group has had some shuffling around. The only true freshmen in the entire Rams starting lineup is on the offensive line, as Nouredin Nouili received the nod at left guard. The Rams offensive line will be tasked with controlling CU defensive end Mustafa Johnson. Johnson earned preseason first-team all-conference recognition after his eight sacks and 17.5 tackles for a loss last year. Outside of Johnson, the
Buffs have no projected returning starters on the defensive line. With both teams having question marks on each front, whichever group manages to outshine the other can have a huge impact on the outcome of the game. Ajayi vs. Shenault The most talented player on the field come Friday night will be wearing No. 2 and will have a Buffs helmet on. Laviska Shenault is a name that many college football fans will get to know if they don’t already. NFL Draft Analyst Matt Miller ranked the wide receiver as the sixth-best prospect in the 2020 draft, and he received AP All-American second-team honors this preseason. Rams defensive back Rashad Ajayi will have the task of stopping one of the best players in college football. Last season, Shenault totaled 11 catches, 211 yards and one touchdown against CSU’s defense, which included Ajayi. The leader of the Rams’ secondary faces his toughest task of the season yet again in week one. Ajayi can make a name for himself and help the Rams walk out victorious if he limits Shenault. Bobo vs. Tucker Both men calling the game on opposite sides of the field are coaching for something more than a win on Friday night. CSU Head Coach Mike Bobo is looking for his first victory against CU. CU’s Mel Tucker is coaching for his first win as a head coach. A win for Bobo in one of the biggest games of the season will be a step in the right direction

for not only the team, but also his job. If Bobo gets heavily outcoached by first-year Tucker, then his coaching seat will get a bit warmer. As much as the players are responsible for the

outcome on the field, the coaches ultimately are in charge of preparation and making sure the team is ready to play. Bobo has five years of experience as a head coach, and that should give him a slight edge in this one.
Win or lose, Bobo needs to make certain Tucker’s team doesn’t turn this into another Rocky Mountain blowout. Sergio Santistevan can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

Grit, resilience: The ballad of Cody Bass By Ryan Loberger @LobergerRyan
To make a living as a hockey player you have to be tough. Ice hockey isn’t a sport for the faint of heart or those that can’t overcome the pain that goes into playing such a chaotic, beautiful game. Colorado Eagles forward Cody Bass has built a career off grit and toughness. The Owen Sound, Ontario, native fits the description of what they call a tough customer. However, the scars that have accumulated over the years have taken a toll on the 32-yearold centerman. Bass has concluded that he’s laced up his skates as a professional hockey player for the last time. “Over my career I’ve had a ton of injuries, and my body just doesn’t feel the same way anymore,” Bass said. “I think going into the summer and trying to look for an opportunity to play again, but nothing really (happened). It was one of those things that was a mutual decision. For me, I was done with the game, my body was telling me ‘no more,’ but my heart was telling me to play, [and] the game was almost telling me that ‘it’s my time.’” Retirement from the sport you love is difficult for any athlete: a hard reality to face. As Bass makes his transition, it’s clear he wants to stay involved with the sport, but he is optimistic about opportunities in other fields of work. “I’m working on my real estate license,” Bass said. “I’m hoping that will provide something for me in the future. ... I’m really trying to look for an opportunity to stay in the game. I have a dream and a passion to work players and possibly being a coach of some sort in the future. That’s something I’m trying to pursue right now.” During his 13 year career, Bass was an intimidating presence. The veteran, lacking a few front teeth, wasn’t somebody you’d want to cross paths with walking down a dark alley. But for those that know Bass, like his teammates, the intimidation is more of an on-ice persona. Bass is beloved by the fans and the guys in the locker room, and for the younger players on the roster, he’s shown them what it means to be a true professional. “He’s very intelligent in all aspects,” forward Logan O’Connor said. “He knows his way around everything, honestly, business-wise, hockey-wise, lifestyle-wise. He’s done a great job helping young guys. He’s been a constant resource [for

us] to go to and a good guy to bounce ideas off of, lifestyle or personal, whatever it may be.” Bass’ struggles with injuries can be attributed to his physical, tough-as-nails style of play, but the previous season was a real test to his psyche. Nevertheless, the forward has found a way to make an impact with the club while being limited in his role on the ice. “(Last year) was a frustrating year for me, personally,” Bass said. “It’s my 12th year. I’ve been injury bit(ten) throughout my career, but it gave me time to work with some young guys that are here. ... Injuries are injuries; there’s not much I can do.” After taking a shot to his face and losing teeth earlier this season, Bass had several ailments that have kept him out of the lineup. At one point this season, Bass had broken a bone in his face, which required him to wear a face shield. Bass fought twice during three days in February while wearing the face shield; he removed his helmet before each fight. “He’s a leader on our team,” said forward Shane Bowers. “He leads by example on and off the ice, night-in and night-out.

Cody >> from page 14 know what we’re gonna get. He’s one of our hardest workers and really (made) a difference for us.” Mentoring the younger guys is something Bass took pride in this past season, with the average age on the team listed at 21 years old. The end goal for every hockey player is to play in the NHL, but Bass kept the young guys grounded and reminded them it’s a long road making a career in pro hockey, and patience is a virtue you need to have. “The biggest thing is being patient,” Bass said. “When guys come over from junior or over from Europe, they have to be patient within their game and with their development. Things aren’t (going to) happen for them overnight. The biggest thing I tried to teach is patience and routine. Playing at this level and the (NHL) is about finding a routine, figuring out your body and what works for you, and every day trying to maximize (your) potential and better yourself.” While he was only in the NHL for a short stint, Bass knows the rigors that come with making the NHL and sticking in the league. And if you ever get
your shot to play at the top level, you need to be ready for the opportunity. “I didn’t make my first NHL team out of camp until I was 28,” Bass said. “I made Nashville one year, then I got sent down on Christmas. Nothing happens right away for some of the young guys, and I think some will get more opportunities than others, and that’s just the reality of the game we play. The mental side of the game for the young guys and how strong or weak you are, and your attitude, is (going to) determine what their career holds for them.” Heading into the offseason, Bass had done his share of reflecting and planning on the next chapter of his life. The veteran will get a chance to practice some of the wisdom he’s been preaching to his younger teammates: patience and passion are synonymous with success. “I don’t think you can rush into anything,” Bass said. “I think I have to be patient with reality, (be) patient with finding what I’m good at, what are my passions. Life’s all about opportunity, and I just have to find an opportunity that fits here, and whether it’s real estate, hockey or coaching, whatever that may be, I just need to stay patient and try to chase after something I’m really passionate about.” Ryan Loberger can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

FACILITIES
Plans to build women’s sports complex are underway By Tyler Meguire @TMeguire
If you build it, they will come. Instead of building a baseball field in the middle of a cornfield, Colorado State will build a women’s athletic complex where the current soccer field is — south of the Moby Arena parking lot. This project will cost $6.3-$6.5 million and will allow the softball and soccer teams to have a proper practice and playing facility. CSU has allocated a $300,000 budget to pursue design possibilities and program plans for the project. The $300,000 will be funded through an extension of a student fee of $5.07 per semester. The Student Fee Review Board approved the measure the past calendar year. The initial $300,000 will put the University in a position where they can confirm the costs of the project and develop a program plan for the site. University leadership will then request final approval and put the project out for bid. University leadership has requested specific needs for the facility. These needs include a gateway to the complex and an area for concessions and restrooms, team meeting space for both programs, lighting for the fields and permanent fan seating.
“You try to cross priorities off the list, and we’re finally at the point and time where we’re able to focus a lot of resources and planning in place to make sure these two sports get what I would deem bestof-class facilities.” JOE PARKER CSU ATHLETIC DIRECTOR
“I’m kinda like pinching myself right now,” softball Coach Jen Fisher said. “To be a part of this is really exciting. It’s something that speaks a lot toward our leadership at Colorado State, and the student support, that was just incredible. You want to have a great game-day experience as well, and they’re supporting the women’s programs as well. For me to have a little bit of a voice while I’m a coach here is exciting.” Why this is important CSU women’s soccer has played at three different sites on campus since the program’s first year in 2013. The softball facility has remained nearly untouched for 25 years. The project will help with recruitment for both programs as well. Moby Arena training room, the Anderson Academic Center,

the Anderson Weight Room and the Indoor Practice Facility have all helped programs with recruiting new athletes. A stadium feel is important to the two programs. In 2018, the CSU softball team staged a sit-in at a Rams football spring practice to protest inequality in the practice facilities between teams at the University. Bad weather did not allow the softball team to play, and they had nowhere to practice. For reference, Canvas Stadium cost the campus $220 million dollars in 2017. A Title IX report, released in 2017, said that as of 2015, universities nationwide spent about twice as much on men’s athletics than they did women’s. Now, the facility is a stepping stone for women’s sports equality and something that both programs well deserve. Rams softball in their 2019 campaign went 39-12 and made it to the second round of the Regional NCAA tournament. Soccer is coming off their best season in seven years as a program with a 6-9-4 record. “We’ve talked a lot about what we want it to be,” said Joe Parker, CSU athletic director. “One thing I want to see us do is build something that feels uniquely Colorado State that feels like it’s a unified complex. I think we’ll be able to achieve that, and we’ll be able to create the best fan experience possible for both programs.” Tyler Meguire can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

RECREATION
A guide to Fort Collins gyms By Ty Davis @ TyDavisACW
Maybe after a long day, students want to blow off some steam, so they decide to head to the Colorado State University Recreation Center to get a workout in, but it’s packed. The gym rats are just talking around the bench you’re waiting on, the wanna-be Instagram model is on their 15th set in the squat rack and the guy on the machine you need is just watching TV. Luckily, there are other options for people who need to get a workout in. Here is a list of the local gyms that offer an environment that appeals to a variety of activities and a general sense of health, wellness and fitness. Alive by Raintree Alive by Raintree is good if you’re looking for a gym that will suffice in a variety of ways. The facility offers weighted sleds, battle ropes, Olympic lifting platforms, squat racks, press benches, a TRX anchoring area, battle ropes and a variety of other free weights, weight machines and standard cardio equipment. The most prominent features the gym offers are the two studios with large screens that allow users to display the classes they are interested in, from yoga and flexibility to HIIT workouts. The gym offers many amenities; however, it doesn’t offer expertise on any of them. Monthly Rates: $35/month Student Discount: None Trial: 3 consecutive days Elevate Barbell Elevate is a weights-focused gym, focusing on all styles, including powerlifting, bodybuilding, Olympic lifting and even strongman to an extent. The gym provides much of the lifting equipment one would expect, with a machine focus on plate machines and the occasional bodyweight training apparatus, such as gymnast rings. Non-membership visits are by appointment only, and some parts of the building are still
under construction. Monthly Rates: $79/month Student discount: $59/ month Trial: None Foothills Activity Center The Foothills Activity Center does not have a lot in general, but it works for what it is. The gym area itself is fairly small and only has the standard equipment like treadmills, ellipticals, bikes, a multi-capable machine, a few weight machines and free weight areas. In addition, there is some wellness equipment, like Swiss balls, Bosus, resistance bands and balance boards. The center also has a full basketball court area and fitness studio. It doesn’t have much specialty equipment, but it will give you the basics. The FAC is operated by the City of Fort Collins. Monthly Rates: $34/month Student discount: None Trial: None Kerley’s Fitness Kerley’s is hyper-focused on athleticism and functional fitness. There are free weights and machines, but the main focus is clearly on the various equipment like sleds, carries, plyometric boxes, clubs, maces and Olympic platforms that all focus on functional movement. So, if you’re looking for a gym that offers a diverse, full-body workout, Kerley’s may be a good option. Monthly Rates: $65/month Student Discount: None Trial: 10 day free trial for group classes Northside Aztlan Community Center Similar to the Foothills Activity Center, the Northside Aztlan Community Center is your standard all-around gym, except this one focuses on free weights rather than machines. There’s also a gymnasium and a general focus on health and wellness apart from heavy lifting. The Northside Aztlan Community Center is operated by the City of Fort Collins. Monthly Rates: $34/month Student Discount: None Trial: None
Old Town Athletic Club Old Town Athletic Club embodies the idea of the “neighborhood gym.” It features your run of the mill free weights, cable machines and a wellness and health area. What makes Old Town Athletic Club different is that it features a CrossFit gym next door, as well as a daycare center where parents can leave their child while they work out. There’s nothing especially exceptional about Old Town Athletic Club, but at the end of the day, it gets the job done. Monthly Rates: $45/month Student Discount: None Trial: 1 week Prodigy Prodigy is a classic bodybuilding gym. The gym is packed with various weighted machines. The dumbbells can go to obscene amounts. I compared it to a strength dungeon. You won’t get much variety in activities, but if you’re looking for a classic-style gym for lifting a Herculean amount of weights, there’s little better than Prodigy. Monthly Rates: $35.99/ month Student discount: $29.99/ month Trial: 3 consecutive days Raintree Raintree is a gym with a lot of variety. In addition to weights and cardio, Raintree also has a spinning rock climbing wheel, a track around the gym, a laned pool, a cycling studio, dance studio, pilates studio, basketball court and more. Raintree is a good place to go for people with a steady routine who also enjoy trying new things or changing it up every once and while. What makes Raintree different is that it doesn’t have too much variety and instead focuses on providing high-quality equipment and amenities. Monthly Rates: $67/month Student Discount: $47/ month Trial: 1-day trial Ty Davis can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

CULTURE & COMMUNITY
UK singer Dodie to empower Gothic Theatre By Matt Campbell @mcampnh
For the better part of this year, the cryptic sound of English singer-songwriter Dodie Clark has made its way across the world with a presence that is hard to ignore. With two sold-out shows at the Gothic Theatre on Sept. 27 and 28, Dodie will bring her endearing quirk, as well as a lyrical celebration of queerness and feminism, to the stage. Like many young artists today, Dodie’s music career stems from her Youtube channel, where she uploaded videos of covers and original songs. Now, several years later, the artist is coming off of the release of her critically acclaimed EP “Human,” which dropped January 2019. Dodie spent most of this year on the “Human” tour across the United States and Europe. The U.S. leg will take up all of September and most of October 2019. It is difficult to pigeonhole the sound of Dodie’s third EP “Human.” The songs on the album are as quirky as they are personable, a quality that primary songwriter and instrumentalist Dodie implements in both her music and her online presence. Over the course of her career, Dodie has amassed
over 1.8 million YouTube subscribers and has rocketed as high as number five on Billboard magazine’s U.K. charts. What makes Dodie’s music important, however, is its sound. On top of reverb-soaked acoustic guitars and determined electro-pop beats, Dodie crafts soft and careful words. On her EP “Human,” she speaks of love and specifically the uncertainty of her own emotions. “Monster” is a track that feels like wandering the winding halls and creaky floors of an old house, a metaphor that is not unfamiliar to many singer-songwriters who remark on the skeletal state of a love that once was. On “Monster,” Dodie comes face to face with the death of self in a relationship that makes monsters out of lovers and self-consciously admits to being a malformed version of her former self. It is a track that invokes as much reflection as it does fear. In past performances, Dodie has brought intimacy and vulnerability to her audiences. While it’s difficult to say exactly what to expect from this leg of the “Human” tour, it is safe to say that her prior performances promise a night of warmth and entertainment.
