Text-based cannabis counseling study could help student addicts By Ceci Taylor @cecelia_twt
Since Colorado legalized the recreational use of cannabis in 2014, Colorado’s “stoner culture” has skyrocketed, leading to marijuana tourist guides, a 420 festival and more. However, some researchers have found marijuana to be addicting and detrimental
to health. To help college-aged students who might struggle with cannabis addiction, Colorado State University researcher Doug Coatsworth has partnered with the University of Tennessee Knoxville’s Michael Mason to develop a text-based counseling system. “The study is intended to reach out to college-aged people — they don’t have to be students
here — who are using marijuana at levels they’re not really comfortable with,” Coatsworth said. “They may want to change, they don’t really know exactly how to change and maybe they don’t really want to go to counseling.” Coatsworth said the study is only beginning, and CSU plans to do a preliminary study where it will recruit some students to simply give information on their
patterns of cannabis use, but the study will officially start in the spring. The students who are recruited into the official study will receive around four texts per day over the course of five weeks, Coatsworth said. These texts are intended to help individuals make changes in their lives around reducing cannabis use. see CANNABIS on page 4 >>

To call The Backstage Van a passion project would be an understatement. It’s the concept of freelance journalist, photographer and podcast host Johnny Leftwich, who combines multiple aspects of music media in a traveling van. The Backstage Van is part passion project and part livelihood of Leftwich. The project attempts to combine multiple aspects of music journalism into one efficient machine. “I got the van, I got the camera, I got the podcast equipment and I just started doing it,” Leftwich said. “Now I’m here.” The van itself is currently under construction by Leftwich and freelance designer Stephen Webb. Despite being unfinished, the project is still active. “I took on a lot,” Leftwich said. “I wouldn’t say I bit off more than I could chew because I’m definitely chewing it; I just have to figure out how to piece it together. But I didn’t want to lean on not finishing the van as an excuse not to start the project, so I started interviewing people.”

CITY
Council approves higher density zoning for Hughes By Samantha Ye @samxye4
In a rejection of the rejection, City Council voted 4-3 to rezone the Hughes Stadium property with a higher density portion as suggested by staff and previously voted against by the Planning and Zoning Board. The zoning splits the nearly 165 acres of land along the Overland Trail into roughly half Residential Foothills and half Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood. The north-south division places RF zoning, the less dense of the two, along the foothills. An RF zone allows for either single-family homes on minimum 2.29 acre lots or single-family home “clusters” with a density of one unit per acre. LMN zoning is still low density but allows for more housing types, including attached dwellings and townhomes. Councilmembers who voted for the split zoning focused on the potential to provide affordable or attainable housing options in the area or alleviating supply pressures throughout the City. Lennar, the developer contracted to buy the land from Colorado State University for $10 million, previously proposed to build 600-700 homes in the area. “Having the opportunity to get
affordable and attainable housing is important, and our community has been asking for it, and this is where we can make an impact,” Councilmember Emily Gorgol said. While City zoning itself does not consider or mandate affordable housing, City Comprehensive Planning Manager Cameron Gloss said a higher density zoning with more housing options like LMN could increase the chances that the housing will be priced attainably. After a zoning is approved and the development proposal itself is getting reviewed, staff and Council would have more ability to consider affordable housing. Gloss said if the developer comes with a “true certified affordable housing project,” then they could get an additional density bonus, allowing up to 12 housing units per acre in an LMN zone. Councilmember Julie Pignataro said there are many “coulds and cans” of what the developer can do for affordability and not many “woulds and shoulds” within the discussion. The “lack of ability with the tools in (the City’s) box right now” means they cannot guarantee there will be attainable housing through zoning. The fact that the future housing community will be desirable, given its proximity to desirable open space, probably means de-
mand will drive those home prices up regardless of density, Councilmember Ross Cunniff said. “Regardless of how we zone this, I believe that … factors outside our control dictate whether (the housing) is attainable or affordable,” Cunniff said.
“Having the opportunity to get affordable and attainable housing is important, and our community has been asking for it, and this is where we can make an impact.” EMILY GORGOL CITY COUNCILMEMBER
Mayor Wade Troxell pushed back against that idea. He said increasing the supply of housing, particularly those with density, will help with affordability. “Affordable” housing typically means rent costs less than 30% of the area median income. In Fort Collins, the growing economy and population have put pressure on housing costs. In a statement to Council, the CSU System wrote that their de-
sire in the redevelopment of the site includes using “a portion of the property to address attainable and potentially affordable housing for CSU employees.” Nationwide, the housing shortage has raised the pressure on those trying to find affordable housing, according to Marketplace. And while there are some mixed opinions on how and where new housing should be built to address the shortage, housing advocates say it is important to build new affordable housing. “I think you need to provide a variety of housing types and products,” Troxell said. “The discussion with LMN provides for that type of diversity.” RF would be far more exclusive to attainable housing due to the large lot size requirement and limitation to single-family homes. Additionally, the low-density zoning would not lend itself to developing public transportation westward, Gorgol said. “RF is very exclusive,” said Kristin Stephens, councilmember and mayor pro tem. “To me, it excludes a lot of people from buying a home, and that, to me, goes against the values of equity that we’re trying to embrace here.” A 100% RF zoning was recommended to Council by the P&Z Board over a month ago, after they rejected the same staff plan that
Council adopted at the Tuesday meeting. The Board had cited concerns about safety, traffic and density of the area. Nearly 40 residents spoke at Council, either recommending the adoption of the P&Z Board recommendation or recommending to take on a completely new plan like purchasing the land for greenspace, bringing up similar concerns of safety and wildlife. In particular, residents underscored the natural qualities of the area they felt would be lost in a higher density housing development. Councilmember Susan Gutowsky agreed, having just visited the area to see how it had changed after the stadium was torn down. She said the land is precious and could not support the motion. But, barring a miracle of CSU donating the land for greenspace, Stephens said her plea is for the University to really commit to affordable housing in the area. “CSU of all places knows, as a big employer, the challenges many middle-income and lower-income folks face in our community,” Stephens said. “And so I hope that they stick by their plans … to provide affordable and attainable housing in this space because our community really, really needs that.” Samantha Ye can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Cannabis >> from page 1 “Participants complete surveys at the beginning of their treatment, and this information is used to individually tailor the four-week intervention,” Mason wrote in an email to The Collegian. “Approximately eight personalized interactive texts are sent to participants every other day for a month, and participants also can access ‘booster’ messages any time.” Mason wrote that the study is important because of the addictive nature of cannabis. He said that while many people believe the drug is not addictive, it actually is.
“It’s like you have a good friend following you around who is reminding you about the things you want to change in your life.” DOUG COATSWORTH COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY RESEARCHER
“It has the ability to interfere with people’s lives,” Mason wrote. “But it’s a small percentage of people that try that are going to progress to that level. Approximately 9% of people who use marijuana will develop cannabis use disorder. Problems are starting to arise in their relationships, in their work, in their school.” Mason wrote that those who suddenly stop using marijuana can even experience withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, trouble sleeping and irritability. Nathan Riggs, a co-investigator with CSU, wrote that the study is also important because 6% of college students report using cannabis more than 20 times per month.
“More than 2,000 CSU students use cannabis daily, which is associated with lower academic achievement and a greater likelihood of dropping out and physical health problems,” Riggs wrote in an email to The Collegian. “Many of these students would like to either stop or reduce the amount of cannabis they are using. This intervention is designed to reduce heavy cannabis use and, in turn, increase the likelihood of student success and healthy development.” Coatsworth said the study had already been done in places such as Tennessee and Canada and showed working results, but Colorado is a bit different than these places. “The environment at Tennessee and the environment here in Colorado is different,” Coatsworth said. “It’s legalized here. We think that students probably have greater access to it, and we want to understand whether the program works similarly or differently in these two contexts.” Coatsworth said if the study at CSU is successful, it could become a permanent service to those who need it. “We have to run one or two more studies to make sure it’s working the way we want it to be working,” Coatsworth said. “Then we can integrate it more into the kinds of things that people can use, the kinds of things that can be used in the communities, the kinds of things that can be used in universities.” Coatsworth said that everyone is excited about this opportunity because it’s easy for anyone to use. He said the text-based service gives people more control — they see a text on their phone, and they can choose whether to act or not. “But it keeps reminding them about goals they set up for changing their use,” Coatsworth said. “It’s like you have a good friend following you around who is reminding you about the things you want to change in your life.” Ceci Taylor can be reached at news@collegian.com.

PETA files cease and desist against CSU for deleting, hiding comments By Ceci Taylor @cecelia_twt
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals sent a cease and desist letter to Colorado State University asking the institution to stop deleting and hiding comments or posts that criticize its experiments on birds. PETA said the action of deleting comments from its official Facebook page is a vio-
lation of free speech under the First Amendment of the Constitution. According to a press release, CSU hid or deleted posts and comments made by PETA and its supporters in September and October. These posts were criticizing the CSU laboratory where crows, robins and sparrows, who were captured from their natural homes, were infected with West Nile virus and killed. “CSU knows that it can’t
possibly defend infecting birds with West Nile virus in these cruel experiments, so it has resorted to silencing critics,” PETA Senior Vice President Kathy Guillermo wrote in a press release. “PETA will consider legal action to restore the First Amendment right to speak out against these inhumane, pointless experiments.” During these experiments, birds infected with West Nile virus may develop a fever and anorexia and may have diffi-
culty controlling body movements; some species, including crows, may also experience infection, which is then followed by multiple organ failure and death, according to PETA. Colorado Parks and Wildlife responded to a PETA complaint and cited and fined experimenter Gregory Ebel. Ebel’s license was suspended after he trapped 37 American crows without a permit. This case is also similar to a lawsuit PETA filed in 2018
against Texas A&M University for its removal of posts critical of experiments on dogs from its Facebook page. PETA is an organization against speciesism, which is a human-supremacist worldview. The motto on its website reads “animals are not ours to experiment on.” For more information, visit PETA.org. Ceci Taylor can be reached at news@collegian.com.

FoCo Cafe celebrates 5 years of feeding the city By Laura Studley @laurastudley_
FoCo Cafe has been serving the community for almost five years. Starting from an idea, this restaurant has committed itself to providing fresh meals and other services to Fort Collins residents. On Thanksgiving Day in 2014, owners Jeff and Kathleen Baumgardner opened their new cafe with 18 cents in their bank account. “She worked at (Colorado State University) as a communications director for the College of Engineering,” said Mallory Garneau, FoCo Cafe executive director. “He was a doctor that delivered babies, so neither of them had any experience in nonprofits or restaurants. They decided, ‘This is our idea; let’s just go ahead and start running with it.’” FoCo Cafe’s full name, Feeding Our Community Ourselves, Inc., attests to just that — providing an opportunity for people to enjoy a meal regardless of their ability to pay. Customers who cannot afford to pay the minimum price of $4 are asked to volunteer their time. The $4 covers the cost of food on the plate. This price does not account for paying the chefs and other employees, utilities or rent — only the price of the food. Typically, a meal would cost $12. Rather than a traditional soup kitchen model, FoCo Cafe wants to ask what customers can provide
versus what the cafe can give, Garneau said. “When we ask, ‘What can you provide for us; what can you give us in exchange?’ they tend to realize that they do have more worth than they have given themselves,” Garneau said. “They start to regain a sense of self-autonomy, and that’s really where you see people move from homelessness to self-sufficiency.” Volunteer Cliff Adams chose FoCo Cafe for his community service hours but has chosen to stay after his hours were finished. He is now Saturday’s operating manager, coordinating the dining area and other volunteers. Because FoCo Cafe is a restaurant, they are faced with more financial barriers than other nonprofits. About 40% of the cafe’s overall income budget comes from meal donations. The other 60% is obtained through other sources. Whether it’s monthly donors, renting out their space, fundraisers, events or grants, the cafe finds a way to make ends meet. Each plate the cafe sells requires a sales tax, which adds up to $300-500 a month. The cafe also provides worker’s compensation and insurance for volunteers in the event of injury. “We depend on the community to show up and be able to support us, so it’s this give and take,” Garneau said. “We wouldn’t be here if we were just serving the people that needed it.” FoCo Cafe has a total of five em-
ployees — two dishwashers, a chef, the executive director and the manager. Everyone else volunteers their time. On Saturday, the cafe is 100% volunteer-run. Phil Skinner has been volunteering his time since June of 2018. His rehab program suggested he become involved with community service, and it just so happened that he had also been taking culinary classes. When he said he could work every Saturday, the cafe immediately put him to work. “I’ve really gotten into the culinary arts, taking classes and things like that, and this is a way to further my education in that while helping people who could use a hand,” Skinner said. “(Volunteering) certainly helped me.” Priding themselves on using only local, organic and sustainably grown ingredients, the cafe creates a menu based on what gets donated and what produce is seasonal. Every day there is something new. Using the on-property garden and donations, along with buying food from local farmers, the cafe works to increase the accessibility to healthy food while supporting the local economy, Garneau said. “We’ll come in the morning and there’s a bag of something that someone’s dropped off,” Garneau said. “We want to make sure (we are) reducing food waste, so we’re making sure that things aren’t going bad. If something shows up that wasn’t going to be on the menu, but it’s there and ready to go, we’re going to use it.”

Last year, the cafe launched “Save the FoCo Cafe” to keep its doors open. A year later, on Sept. 26, the cafe celebrated their 100,000th meal — a month earlier than expected. For their five year anniversary, they will have their annual Thanksgiving celebration. Since the cafe is one of the few businesses open on Thanksgiving Day, FoCo Cafe also began a Meals on Wheels program of sorts. Starting as an idea from an intern, volunteers will deliver meals to those that otherwise would not have access. The cafe partnered with Senior Helpers to get a list of people interested in receiving a Thanksgiving meal. “I think we served 30 households and had a fleet of about eight
volunteers that did delivery meals, which was a new edition last year (and) was really cool because it was a way for us to give back,” Garneau said. FoCo Cafe aims to feed the community through providing healthy meal options while also helping fight homelessness and food insecurity within the Fort Collins community. “Yes, it’s about the food, but it’s what happens when all these different people come together in this space and share a meal in a place that doesn’t have social barriers, where people can interact in a way where they don’t have that space elsewhere,” Garneau said.

ASCSU discusses new bills, votes on new committee chair By Charlotte Lang @chartrickwrites
The Associated Students of Colorado State University discussed two new bills and voted on a new chair for the External Affairs Committee. Bill 4913: Funding for oSTEM National Conference Bill 4913, authored by Internal Affairs Vice Chair Marlis Hazleton, aims to fund $1,000 to Out in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics for an upcoming conference in Detroit, Michigan. OSTEM focuses on the LGBTQ+ community within STEM programs. Hazleton said the bill is necessary because someone in ASCSU made a mistake. “Some of our executive branch has chosen to take an easier route, and that’s why we’re here today,” Hazleton said. The funding is necessary because oSTEM was not made aware of a deadline for a travel grant application by ASCSU and were unable to submit their application on time, Hazleton said. OSTEM initially reached out to the Board of Student Organization Funding on Sept. 16, Hazleton said. In the emailed reply to oSTEM, there was no mention of a deadline. In response to the mistake, Hazleton said a committee member of BSOF said this isn’t the first time they’ve made a mistake, but, due to bylaws, their hands are tied. “We talk about our constitu-
ents, but do you know all of your constituents or their struggles?” Hazleton asked the senate. “I’m here to represent my constituents and to represent a minority because we already failed them once.” Senator Josh Johnson suggested for the senate to either amend this bill or write a new one that would take the funds from BSOF. Hazleton and others said this would be a possibility to look into. The bill was moved to both the Internal and University Affairs committees. Bill 4914: Providing additional support for the graduate student travel award Matthew Saxton, director of graduate affairs and co-president of Graduate Student Council, presented a bill asking for ASCSU’s help in funding the graduate student’s travel award.
“I’m here to represent my constituents and to represent a minority because we already failed them once.” MARLIS HAZLETON INTERNAL AFFAIRS VICE CHAIR
“I wrote this bill to meet the demand that we have seen for our travel award,” Saxton said. “It’s important to understand that graduate students are a cornerstone for this university.” Graduate students pay a large
part of the University’s operating budget, Saxton said. “Graduate students support this university in a lot of ways, and they TA your classes,” Saxton said. “They deserve the support of the University and us as students.” Saxton’s bill would help fund grants that would allow graduate students to travel to and present at conferences. Saxton said these are invaluable experiences because they allow students the chance to interact with experts and leaders in their fields. Chair Alejandro Benitez said this is a bill that essentially pays for itself. “It brings value to our degree to have graduate students representing our school,” Benitez said. “It brings value to us at CSU.” The bill was sent to the University Issues Committee. Election for new External Affairs Committee chair Former External Affairs Committee Chair Lauren Flores stepped down from her position, saying that, in light of recent campus events, the senate body has failed. “Combing through bylaw after bylaw of our documents looking for semantical reasons to remove legislation from the floor just because someone finds it disagreeing of the social or political status quo is disingenuous of an ethical practice,” Flores said. Flores said ensuring that ASCSU becomes a place where people can have productive dialogue with-

out silencing the voices of others is essential to integrity and credibility. She said that noise cannot be confused with truth simply because it can shout louder than truth. Flores also asked for senators to be unafraid to speak against what is false. “Remember who you serve and, most importantly, that you are servants,” Flores said. Following Flores’ stepping down, the Senate held an election for the position. Senators Savannah Overturf, Connor Cheadle and Kyle Hill ran for the position. Overturf won with a 17-13-1 vote. “I want to take my leadership
knowledge and ability to help push the External Affairs Board into new heights,” Overturf said. Overturf said the senate is lacking the knowledge that they have neighbors in the form of other student governments that she would like to connect with. The connection to other communities is something some senators appreciated about Overturf’s ambitions. “What I really liked about Overturf is that she even extends (her relationships) to other communities around us as well, not just Fort Collins,” Associate Senator Daizha Brown said.

CAMPUS
Spending campus dollars is now more efficient than ever By Noah Pasley & Corbin Reiter @CSUCollegian
On-campus students may be surprised to find out they no longer need to swipe into dining halls at Colorado State University. This is thanks to upgraded payment systems. Housing and Dining Services, including the Lory Student Center’s Dining Services, recently added new payment systems to assist with line length and improve efficiency regarding payment, staff labor, system maintenance and card security. “The Housing and Dining Services implementation team generated a large list of requirements to meet the needs of campus,” wrote Royce Lahman, the meal access coordinator for Housing and Dining Services, in an email to The Collegian. “The requirements were based on current operational needs, market trends, campus stakeholder requirements and future expansion
opportunities.” Lahman wrote that the change was needed because the legacy system previously in effect did not have enough opportunity for growth. The previous system used by Lory Dining Services no longer met the needs of the businesses that used it. So, the decision was made to find a new point-of-sale system, said Geoffrey Valdez, assistant director of retail operations for Lory Dining Services. Some of the new system’s features include offline capability and near-field communication reading, which allows students to tap their RamCard to the scanner instead of swiping it. It also includes mobile point-of-sale devices to speed up the entrance into the dining facilities. The system has been installed at all of the on-campus dining centers, including The Foundry and Ram’s Horn in Academic Village. On-campus coffee and bagel shops, as well as convenience stores, all use the same system, and each
establishment has different needs for the system, Valdez said. “We have about 20 different registers and about 12 different revenue centers in Lory Dining Services,” Valdez said. “Eight of those 12 are in the LSC, and the other four are in buildings across campus.” The first establishment to use the new system was Fifty30 Elevated Eats, and it was implemented about a year ago, with other businesses piloting and establishing the payment system later, Valdez said. The adoption was staggered among other businesses in order to test the system and find bugs. Housing and Dining Services transitioned to a new point-of-sale system May 18, which includes integrated credit card transactions as well as a new RamCash function that was added June 1. Lory Dining Services, the RamCard Office and Housing and Dining Services made changes independently, and now all of those systems need to be able to work together, Val-
dez said. “It is very difficult to find a point-of-sale system where one glove fits all when you have very different businesses,” Valdez said. This growth includes new facilities, future renovations and collaboration opportunities, and these changes pave the way for new entrance technologies such as biometrics, Lahman wrote. Many other stakeholders were integrated into the decision for change for Lory Dining Services, including the accounting department and information technology, to find out what could be done to make the change work, Valdez said. “We wanted to pilot it and learn how to train on it and test some of the functionality before we went live with it,” Valdez said. The system was tested at several different establishments to minimize the potential challenges of using a new system, Valdez said. Lory Dining Services does not have the resources to address all
of those challenges on a large scale, so testing throughout the semester was essential. “We had a slow integration process with it all spring semester of 2019, which concluded in June with our convenience stores,” Valdez said. The new system is faster, and the cashiers appear to like it more for its intuitive nature due to its app-based functionality, Valdez said. The next steps for payment include a higher level of integration with new technologies. “Apple Pay has kind of exploded, and we were not able to use that on our old system,” Valdez said. “A portion of our customers don’t even bring a wallet to campus. So, if they are going to buy anything, it has to be through the phone.” This point-of-sale system does not encompass lease partners in the Lory Student Center, including Subway and Panda Express, Valdez said.

¿Cómo lidia CSU con profesores racistas? By Dorina Vida @simply_she_
Traducción: Fernando Montelongo Desde el comienzo del cuatrimestre de otoño, 2019, la Universidad Estatal de Colorado (CSU por sus siglas en inglés) ha estado lidiando con acusaciones e incidentes racistas, incluyendo el incidente de la fotografía de “blackface” (pintarse de negro para imitar a personas afroamericanas) (documento en inglés), la esvástica dibujada (documento en inglés) que fue encontrada en Aggie Village y el insulto racial con la “N” (documento en inglés) escrito en los baños de los campos de deportes intramuros. Entonces, ¿cómo es que la Universidad se ocupa de este tipo de acusaciones e incidentes, especialmente cuando se topan con miembros del profesorado y del personal que discriminan racialmente a los estudiantes?
“CSU hizo un buen trabajo al poner caras diversas en sus folletos de reclutamiento, pero fue impactante al llegar aquí. Mi experiencia aquí ha consistido en tratar de encontrar un lugar en el cual me sienta lo suficientemente segurx para poder ser yo mismx”. RACHEL JACKSON VICEPRESIDENTX DE LA SECCIÓN DE MINORÍAS EN AGRICULTURA, RECURSOS NATURALES Y CIENCIAS RELACIONADAS.
“Esperamos que, si algo así sucede, las personas dentro de los salones de clase alcen su voz, vallan a la jefatura del departamento o al decanato y reporten tales acciones para que la universidad reaccione de manera apropiada”, dijo Dan Bush, Vicerrector de Asuntos del Profesorado en CSU. Cuando la Universidad se encuentra con situaciones como esta, el primer paso es investigar, dijo Bush. Si encuentra una situación donde está involucrado un miembro del profesorado, la Universidad se moviliza para tener una conversación con el individuo en cuestión, hablar acerca de lo que pasó y determinar si es que algo similar volverá a ocurrir o no.
La Oficina de Igualdad de Oportunidades dentro del edificio de Servicios Estudiantiles es uno de los recursos donde lxs estudiantes pueden reportar acciones racistas en el Campus. Los estudiantes también pueden llamar a la línea telefónica Tell Someone o reportar el incidente a través del Centro de Resolución Estudiantil. ILUSTRACIÓN FOTOGRÁFICA DE AMY NOBLE Y MATT TACKETT THE COLLEGIAN
“Podemos animarlos o requerirles que vayan a algún tipo de asistencia psicológica o asesoramiento, y que sean monitoreados de manera atenta en el futuro para asegurarnos de que este tipo de comportamiento no se repita”, dijo Bush. Bush dijo que unx supervisorx hablará con el miembro del profesorado o del personal si éste repite una acción similar en un plazo de seis meses. A esta persona se le explicará que hay comprobantes documentales de sus acciones y se le dará una advertencia, así como la oportunidad de corregir su comportamiento. Si algún miembro del profesorado o del personal persiste en sus acciones en vez de tomar ventaja de las oportunidades presentadas, este miembro será despedido. “Al estudiante le hablaremos con simpatía y respeto, dejándole saber que la situación será investigada y se tomarán las medidas apropiadas”, dijo Bush. Oscar Felix, Asistente Especial en la oficina de El Centro,
dijo que los centros culturales como El Centro proveen lugares seguros a los estudiantes: un lugar donde los estudiantes pueden expresarse y discutir lo que han sufrido y un lugar donde los estudiantes saben que tienen a alguien de confianza y que los va a escuchar.
“Podemos proveer la atención, el cuidado y nuestra presencia, lo cual es muy importante. Pero, ¿cuál es el siguiente paso? Eso sólo hace frente a los síntomas y no a las causas”. OSCAR FELIX ASISTENTE ESPECIAL, EL CENTRO
“Podemos proveer la atención, el cuidado y nuestra presencia, lo cual es muy importante”, dijo Felix. “Pero,
¿cuál es el siguiente paso? Eso sólo hace frente a los síntomas y no a las causas”. La manera en la que el profesorado enseña tiene un gran impacto en lxs estudiantes a tal grado que los estudiantes pueden sentirse aislados como resultado de lo que les ha dicho alguien en una posición de sabiduría y confianza, comentó Felix. “No se trata necesariamente de nuestra libertad de expresión o algo similar”, dijo Felix. “Si la manera en la que estoy enseñando es ofensiva, me gustaría saberlo para poder ser un mejor instructor, un mejor profesor”. Felix dijo que El Centro es un lugar para que los estudiantes acudan cuando se encuentren perdidos, necesiten expresar su dolor y dirigir sus necesidades a los mejores recursos disponibles para su situación. El Centro ayuda a los estudiantes a navegar el sistema para que puedan presentar una queja formal. “Hay dos maneras de hacerlo: una es esa vía formal y la otra
es permitir que los estudiantes expresen sus frustraciones e indignaciones que siguen existiendo”, dijo Felix. “Nosotros proveemos una manera sana en la que los estudiantes pueden expresar sus frustraciones sobre algo que debió desaparecer hace muchos años”. Hay muchas maneras en las que CSU manifiesta discriminación racial, no sólo en la forma de “blackface” e insultos raciales, dijo Rachel Jackson, Vicepresidentx de la Sección de Minorías en Agricultura, Recursos Naturales y Ciencias Relacionadas. “Tengo un sentimiento constante que me dice que el Campus no es mi sitio, ni el estado de Colorado”, dijo Jackson. “CSU hizo un buen trabajo al poner caras diversas en sus folletos de reclutamiento, pero fue impactante al llegar aquí. Mi experiencia aquí ha consistido en tratar de encontrar un lugar en el cual me sienta lo suficientemente segurx para poder ser yo mismx”. Puede contactar con Dorina Vida en news@collegian.com.

Opinion | Thursday, November 7, 2019
COLLEGIAN COLUMNIST
You have no business protesting outside Planned Parenthood Katrina Leibee @KatrinaLeibee
Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. If you have ever walked around Shields and Elizabeth, you may have noticed the Planned Parenthood building. It’s easily recognizable because of the protesters that are often outside. You may also scroll through Facebook or Twitter and notice that people are advertising Mass outside of Planned Parenthood. It’s common for religious organizations or conservative groups to target Planned Parenthood for their anti-abortion demonstrations. Everyone is entitled to their opinion on abortion, but under no circumstances should anyone protest, hold Mass or conduct religious services outside of Planned Parenthood buildings. Far too often, people feel the need to do this, disrupting and discouraging women from going to get their basic healthcare. For context, Planned Parenthood provides STD testing, abortions, birth control, overall reproductive wellness, relationship help, breast exams and cancer screenings. They are a big part of affordable healthcare for women that are in need of it. The establish-
ment right across from campus is one of the few remaining Planned Parenthood buildings in Northern Colorado. Outside of the building is not the place to be protesting against abortion or holding Mass in an attempt to make those using their services feel guilty. The reality is that abortions are only a small percentage of Planned Parenthood’s services. We do not know the background, experiences or stories of those walking into Planned Parenthood, and to make them feel shame or guilt for getting the healthcare they are entitled to is counterproductive and ineffective. Many people that have to go into Planned Parenthood are victims of sexual assault and are trying to get tested for STDs. The last thing they need is to feel guilty or shamed by protesters or religious services outside. The outside of a healthcare establishment is also not the place to hold Mass. We would not do STD testing and breast exams outside the doors of a church because that would be extremely inappropriate. The same goes for holding Mass outside of a healthcare clinic — it’s simply not the place. Planned Parenthood even issued a statement saying they do not encourage demonstrating in support of the business outside of their healthcare centers. Even those outside showing support for the establishment and condemning anti-abortion protesters are still
disrupting the people just trying to access healthcare. There are plenty of other options to go about protesting and demonstrating for your beliefs that don’t disrupt the daily lives of others. Planned Parenthood accepts volunteers to act as greeters for patients coming into the buildings but does not support counter-protesters. Planned Parenthood has said that their ultimate goal is to make patients comfortable, just like any other healthcare establishment or business. Even counter-protesters can be intimidating and overwhelming. Again, the people going into Planned Parenthood are coming from all different walks of life, and they deserve to get their healthcare in peace. There are still ways to promote your religious views and pro-life beliefs, such as through your college’s organizations and churches, but directly disturbing someone that may just be trying to get a breast exam is the worst way to go about it. There are also ways to promote your pro-choice beliefs, such as volunteering for the organization or demonstrating elsewhere. This will always be a difficult subject and one on which people will likely never agree. However, there is a way to go about sharing your viewpoint that does not directly impact and disrupt innocent people. Katrina Leibee can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

Student loans hinder the pursuit of the American dream Madison Thompson @heyymadison
Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. As I sit here writing this article, the student debt crisis has reached about $1.6 trillion. For some perspective, the U.S. military budget is about $686 billion. Economists project student loan debt will reach the $2 trillion mark by 2021. Many students at Colorado State University know this struggle far too well, but this is not our burden to bear. We were lured in under the pretenses that going to college would make our labor more valuable, and it has, which is why our country has never been wealthier. Billionaires and corporations have the money to make this go away, and it’s our turn to be bailed out. Getting student loans is almost too easy — after you sub-
mit your Free Application for Federal Student Aid and your awards are posted, all you have to do is click a button to accept or deny them. I’m no stranger to FAFSA and the student loan system. When I was 17 years old, I was asked to consent to a payment plan that would last well into my 30s, maybe even longer. What 17-year-old do you know that has enough foresight to make a decision that monumental? The argument could be made that it is the parents’ responsibility to ensure a bright future for their child, even if that means derailing college plans in return for financial stability. That sounds ideal in theory, but it’s just not the reality for most. Personally, my brother never went to college, so the last time my parents had to deal with higher education was in the ‘70s. So much has changed since then, so it’s foolish and irresponsible to expect that from them. I can’t help but feel like my government took advantage of me under the guise of the American dream. Nobody wants to talk about
student loan debt because, quite frankly, it’s embarrassing. My debt will not die with me, so any child I bring into this world is going to have to pick up where I left off. Part of me is ashamed knowing that I signed on to such an egregious plan that can impact my family for generations. I certainly would have decided differently if I’d fully understood the repercussions of my actions, but as we all know, most 17-year-olds aren’t that insightful.
“I can’t help but feel like my government took advantage of me under the guise of the American dream.” Student loan debt is also inherently sexist. Women hold over two-thirds of student loan debt, further shackling us from becoming financially independent and professionally successful. The cost of school is only getting more expensive, too. It’s
no secret that funding for public education has been dwindling. Between 2008 and 2018, state funding and subsidies were cut by more than $7 billion. The rising salaries of university presidents and sports coaches also increase the cost of attendance. These are almost double and triple what staff and faculty are being paid. Why should Mike Bobo get $1.8 million a year for a measly 4-5 record? That money would be better spent going back into student services because we deserve better. Many were hoping for the sweet relief of Public Service Loan Forgiveness, which launched in 2007. It was supposed to forgive the remaining balance of your student loans after 120 payments, roughly 10 years, under a qualifying payment plan for those working in the public sector. Since its inception, over 100,000 applications have been rejected. Only 1,216 people have reaped the benefits of this program. It’s important to note that many who applied were rejected for not making qualifying payments or for filling out the forms
incorrectly. Sure, there are several types of repayment plans — Income-Based, Income-Contingent, Pay As You Earn, Revised Pay As You Earn — but young professionals have enough to worry about. Loans are a burden to our professional and economic development. There is also a significant mental health burden associated with student loan debt. A 2013 study from Social Science and Medicine found that higher levels of relative debt to household assets caused subjects to report higher levels of stress, depression and poorer self-reported general health. Feelings of significant indebtedness also raised diastolic blood pressure, which can increase the risk of hypertension and stroke. High school counselors should be urging students to pursue other means of education in any way, shape or form. The only solution to student loan debt is to cancel it. Forgive everyone’s debt, and make public school free. Madison Thompson can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

What’s your fetish: Types of sexual power dynamics Shay Rego @shay_rego
Editor’s Note: The views expressed in the following column are those of the writer only and do not necessarily represent the views of The Collegian or its editorial board. Fetishes may seem like a taboo subject, but they’re much more common than we may think. Fetishism is defined as a form of sexual behavior in which gratification is linked to an abnormal object, activity, part of the body, etc. College students’ curiosity and sexual exploration can increase curiosity in fetishism.
From a sample of college students in a study conducted by Harvard, 22% said they were interested in fetishes, and 43% said they have or believe they have a fetish. There are many different categories that span the fetishism criteria, and each category has multiple subcategories within it. Many fetishes can overlap with other fetishes. For now, I will discuss the fetish of power dynamics and its various subcategories, from the familiar to the rare. Using power dynamics in the bedroom means allowing one partner to have more control over the situation than the other partner. Even the most vanilla of relationships show some type of power play. Being the one in control can feel empowering and can lead to even more of a turn on. Being the one out of control can also be a huge turn on, as this allows someone to not have to worry or think about what to do next — they can simply enjoy. BDSM BDSM is the umbrella term used to describe relationships that use any single type of bondage, dominant, submissive, sa-
dist or masochist scenario. These categories will be explored below. Generally, BDSM can be anything from something as harmless as blindfolding your partner to having a full-blown sex chamber similar to Christian Grey’s in “Fifty Shades of Grey.” Partaking in BDSM doesn’t mean you and your partner have to specifically comply with one or more of the subcategories, but certain activities may lean more toward one. Dominant and submissive This is one of the most entry-level forms of BDSM. Basically, it’s an agreement between both partners where one pledges to be in charge of how everything in the bedroom is going to be, known as the dominant, and the other pledges to do everything that is asked of them by the dominant, known as the submissive. Being submissive to the dominant can take place erotically in the bedroom, but it can also be carried into everyday lifestyles. Bondage and discipline Bondage is a subculture of BDSM. Bondage includes the practice of consensually restraining your partner for erotic purposes. Common restraint
practices include handcuffing, gagging, blinding or shibari. Shibari is a style of bondage developed by the Japanese and typically involves rope tying. This rope tying is also a form of art and, for some, a form of therapy or meditation. Discipline falls directly in line with the dominant and submissive roles. If the submissive disobeys the rules or refuses to listen to the dominant, then the submissive is subjected to discipline. Punishments can include flogging, nipple clips, slapping and more. Punishments can carry on outside the bedroom as well. Sadist and masochist Sadism and masochism are on the more extreme end of the BDSM subcategories. A sadist is someone who directly derives sexual pleasure from inflicting pain onto their partner. A masochist is someone who receives sexual gratification from the pain inflicted on them from their partner. So naturally, sadists and masochists go hand-in-hand. The idea is that the sadist, usually the dominant, enjoys carrying out punishment for something their partner may
have done that was naughty. It’s not necessarily that the sadist enjoys inflicting long-term and significantly painful damage onto their partner. The masochists, usually the submissive, tend to feel like they deserve punishment for their naughty act and may feel better receiving their punishment. Rape play Rape fantasies are normal, despite how others might grimace in disgust and misunderstanding. It’s another form of a power dynamic. Usually, this type of power dynamic is done with a trusted individual or an already dominant/submissive relationship. This could be seen as an extremist form of sadism and masochism, but keep in mind that this fantasy is still consensual for both parties. The infliction of pain, feeling under ownership and loss of self for the “victim” incites sexual pleasure, whereas the simulation of violence can serve to show ownership or attachment to the “victim.” This is one article in many of a series dedicated to fetishisms.

VOLLEYBALL
CSU volleyball heads to California for a 2-game road trip By Ryan Loberger @LobergerRyan
It’s business as usual for the Colorado State volleyball team this weekend, as the Rams (22-1) are in Fresno, California, for a matchup with the Bulldogs tonight at 7 p.m. MST. CSU is riding a 21-game win streak and looking to stay perfect on the road, currently 7-0, while the Bulldogs are trying for their first win in nearly two weeks. The Rams, on the other hand, just keep on climbing in the national rankings. They moved to No. 13 in the coaches’ poll, and they sit at No. 18 in the RPI rankings. If CSU can find their way into the top 16 for the RPI rankings, then the Rams will host the first and second round of the 2019 NCAA Tournament. If the Rams win for the rest of their schedule, hosting the first two single-elimination rounds is a legitimate possibility. Alexa Roumeliotis was named the Mountain West Defensive Player of the Week for her performance from Oct. 29-Nov. 3. The junior libero averaged 5.14 digs per set over the week, as CSU topped Wyoming 3-1 and swept Air Force. This marked the second time this season that Roumeliotis has earned the award, the first being on Sept. 9. This also marked the sixth time a CSU volleyball player has been awarded a weekly conference honor this season. Speaking of good defense, the Rams will look to shut down the Bulldogs’ outside hitters and keep Fresno’s hitting percentage low. Fresno hitter Desiree Sukhov missed time this season with an injury but leads the conference in points per set with 4.63 and is fifth in total points with 328.5. The Rams are currently ranked second in the nation in opponent hitting percentage, keeping their competition to .103% while hitting .285%, good enough for eighth best in the country. Both teams rank in the top 20 in the nation in aces per set, with CSU at 1.73 and Fresno at 1.72. The Rams handed the Bulldogs a 3-0 sweep in their last meeting on Oct. 10 during CSU’s Pink Out game. Fresno will have a promotion night of their own for this game tonight, as the Save Mart Center will be celebrating Staff and Faculty Appreciation Night. The Rams lead the all-time series 16-10 and have won the last two matchups, both in Fort Collins, but the Bulldogs took the victory in their home game last season by a score of 3-1. After Fresno, the Rams will also face off against the University of San Diego on Saturday at 3 p.m. MST. The Aztecs are 5-7 in conference, 12-11 overall and are 43-16 alltime against the Rams, but they have lost the last 10 matchups with CSU. Ryan Lobeger can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

Men’s golf victorious at St. Mary’s Invitational tournament
CSU takes on the nation’s elite in Duke matchup
By Matt Davis @MattDavis27
At one of the United States’ premier golf courses, Colorado State University’s mens golf program looked stronger than ever in three days of play, earning their first win at the Saint Mary’s Invitational tournament Wednesday evening. The Rams held off a stacked tournament field on an extremely difficult course to earn another victory. The team did their dirty work early on Monday, finishing the day -17 thanks to strong performances from sophomores Oscar Teiffel and Davis Bryant. Despite a solid outing from Brigham Young University and the University of Arizona on Tuesday and Wednesday, the Rams pushed back against the eventual second and third place finishers by adding a few strokes to their lead each day. Junior Parathakorn Suyasri led the team on Tuesday, shooting -8 and joining Bryant at the top of the player rankings. The Rams scored in a balanced attack, with four golfers shooting at par or lower on the challenging course. Hosted at Poppy Hills Golf Course, this was the team’s third appearance on the notoriously long course. Known for its former spot in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am rotation, the course boasts four holes of 500 yards or more. The Rams had no issue with the distance-heavy holes, scoring -20 on par-5 holes and a top score of +4 on par-4 holes. The Rams briefly fell behind Golfstat’s No. 4 ranked Brigham Young team on Wednesday, but junior Jack Ainscough almost single-handedly held them off by shooting -5 on the back end to offset a +4 score on the front nine. Colorado State finished with a team score of -25, five strokes less than the Cougars. This was the team’s third event win of the season. BYU wasn’t the only strong program joining the No. 18 ranked Rams in Pebble Beach. The No. 10 ranked Oregon State Beavers fin-

ished in fifth, the No. 11 ranked Arizona Wildcats finished in third and the No. 37 ranked San Diego State Aztecs finished in seventh. Akedanai Ponghathaikul, a sophomore on the team, played as an individual and shot +4 through the tournament, good for a fifthplace finish in the individual field. In last year’s tournament, the Rams finished fifth with all four teams ahead qualifying for postseason play. Following this tournament win, the Rams will move up significantly from their fourthplace spot in the Mountain West
standings. They will also look to jump in the national rankings as they enter their winter break. The Rams are not scheduled to play again until the Wyoming Desert Intercollegiate in February. The annual tournament is hosted by the University of Wyoming at the Classic Club in Palm Desert, California. Colorado State finished fifth in the tournament last year and will look to capture its first victory of 2020 as they enter the final stretch to the Mountain West championship.

The Colorado State men’s basketball team will face their toughest task in years. This Friday, the Rams are in Durham, North Carolina, to face the Duke University Blue Devils. Duke has always been, and continues to be, one of college basketball’s most prestigious programs. Duke is ranked as the fourth-best team in the entire nation right now, and that ranking is sure to rise soon. They are coming off a thriller against Kansas that saw the Blue Devils win 68-66. Kansas was ranked higher than Duke as the third-best team in the nation before the matchup. CSU is coming off an impressive win themselves. In their home opener against the University of Denver, the Rams comfortably won 74-63. CSU looked solid all across the board. Nico Carvacho looked like his typical self, hauling in 11 rebounds to go along with his 10 points on efficient shooting. Kris Martin also showed out with 18 points of his own. CSU has nine new players on the team this season. The significant roster turnover will give the team a new look but will also require some time to develop and gel. Newcomers Isaiah Stevens, David Roddy, Dischon Thomas and John Tonje all saw action in the first game. For CSU to succeed this season, those players must all play significant roles. Duke lost stars Zion Williamson, Cam Reddish and RJ Barrett to the NBA draft, but roster turnover has never been a problem for a program that consistently produces professional-level talent and is always a threat to win the national title. Coached by legend Mike Krzyzewski, Duke always brings in talent through transfers and recruits and always improves their returning players’ talent. Tre Jones is this year’s returning stud for Duke. Jones has NBA bloodlines and is a legitimate prospect for
next year’s draft. The point guard is one of the best playmakers and assist maestros in all of college hoops. CSU may not be able to stop him, but containing him and forcing him into uncomfortable spots will be key for the Rams. Jones played nearly the entire matchup against Kansas, and if he has a weak spot, it would be his 3-point shooting. If the Rams can force Jones into tough outside shots, Duke’s scoring total may go down, especially because this strategy limits Jones’ playmaking opportunities. Blue Devil freshmen Wendell Moore Jr., Matthew Hurt and Vernon Carey Jr. were all top 25 recruits in the nation and all shined at times in the opener. Duke, however, didn’t play a flawless game against Kansas. They only won by two points in a game that saw their opponent struggle with 28 turnovers. The Blue Devils struggled shooting from the free throw line, and costly mistakes like this can turn a game around. Even so, this is going to be a tough one for CSU. They are strong underdogs and must keep their heads up no matter what happens. A win is highly unlikely for CSU, but the experience they gain from facing a team like Duke will be huge for their future.
WHERE TO FIND THE GAME ■ Broadcasted on ACC Network,
available on Dish and DirecTV. ■ Fans can also listen to the game through RamVision or on tunein.com. ■ Game may also be televised at local bars and restaurants. ■ Online streaming service Hulu, Sling and YouTube.tv also provide the ACC Network as well as free trial periods for their service.

SOCCER
Rams’ conference tournament, historic season ends in PKs By Bailey Shepherd @B_Sheps
The Colorado State women’s soccer team’s record-breaking season has come to an end. The Rams’ first-ever conference tournament appearance ended in a 0-0 draw, followed by a 3-1 loss in a penalty shootout against Fresno State on Tuesday, Nov. 5. The defense was the story early on in Boise, Idaho. CSU forward Gracie Armstrong forced a save from Valentina Vivas in the first 30 seconds of play. Both teams dug deep to prevent each other from creating scoring chances; the Rams only hit the net one more time in the first half, while the Bulldogs only managed one shot on goal. Chances were more fruitful in the second half. The Rams managed to create nine shots, finding the target four times, while the Bulldogs forced Gabi McDonald into two saves from seven shots. But again, neither defense allowed the opposition to put the ball in the net. The Rams came closest to scoring in the 73rd minute of play when senior midfielder Caeley Lordemann rifled a shot goalward but was denied by the crossbar. In a fashion typical of this Rams team this season, they upped the pressure in the last moments of the game, forcing Fresno goalkeeper Milena Zink
to make three important saves in the last 15 minutes of play to send the game to overtime. The Rams didn’t create a chance for themselves in the first period of overtime, but sophomore goalkeeper McDonald made a crucial save in the last three seconds of play to deny Lorena Montanes and keep CSU’s season alive. The story didn’t change in the second period of overtime, and the game went to a penalty shootout. Senior Fresno forward Kasidee Wiley shot first, beating McDonald to give the Bulldogs a 1-0 shootout advantage. The Rams missed their first two attempts in the shootout and were only able to stop Audrey Reyna from scoring. The Bulldogs prevailed in the shootout, winning 3-1 to send the Rams home. “When you go to PKs, it is anyone’s game,” CSU Head Coach Bill Hempen said. “We showed our inexperience in a situation like that. You can practice that all you want, but it’s not until you have to do it with the season on the line that it turns into a whole different animal.” “There were a lot of positives to build on not only in this game, but throughout the season to carry over into next season,” Hempen said in regards to what the future has in store for Rams soccer. Bailey Shepherd can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

Proposition DD: What to know about sports betting in Colorado By Jack Taylor @j_taylr
The Colorado election night on Tuesday, Nov. 5, ended with Proposition DD narrowly passing with a margin of 50.73%. Proposition DD authorizes sports betting within Colorado for adults over 21. A vote was required to pass this proposition under the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights since this bill proposed a new Colorado tax. This passed proposition is set to become law in the coming 2020 fiscal year (May 2020). This new sports betting tax will take 10% of the revenue from all legal sports betting. Proposition DD enables the state to collect up to $29 million per year and will distribute the revenue into three different
categories. Proposition DD allows Colorado’s 33 casinos to apply for licensing. If accepted, casinos will now be able to take wagers on professional, collegiate, motor and Olympic sports. $130,000 will be attributed to gambling addiction services, $960,000 will be given to the Hold Harmless Fund. The fund is a grant that takes applications from entities that receive tax revenue from traditional gambling and horse racing, such as casino cities and counties, as well as community colleges. To access the fund, these entities must prove that they have a decrease in profit from regular gambling. The remaining $14.9 million will be used to complete statewide water projects. The Colorado Division of
Gaming and the Colorado Limited Gaming Control Commission, the current governing bodies that oversees and regulate the state’s casinos, will be given responsibility for regulating sports betting allowed by Proposition DD. This passed proposition calls for celebration since it was a bipartisan-backed effort, with both Democrats and Republicans in the Colorado State Senate excited about the tax revenue that Proposition DD brings to Colorado’s ongoing water projects. Colorado has become the 19th state to legalize sports betting, continuing the states’ progressive legislative process. Jack Taylor can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

Backstage >> from page 1 As of now, The Backstage Van has done two interviews with two local Fort Collins bands. The eventual goal of the project is to visit different cities around America and explore their music scene. “I don’t have any specific plans besides going from city to city and talking to bands,” Leftwich said. “I want to hit as many cities as I can and get as dug into them as I can and just talk to anyone that’s doing anything that I like.” Although Leftwich has the disposition, drive and attention to detail, which makes him a natural fit for this vocation, his journey to get to this position was unusual. Before establishing The Backstage Van, Leftwich primarily focused on creating a career of special effects and makeup for movies. Work in his field became harder to find as CGI became more prevalent, so Leftwich adapted and changed.
“I (like) to think I have decent music taste. I know what it’s like to struggle as an artist. If I can help out artists I think are good, maybe make a few bucks along the way, then I’m doing exactly what I want.” JOHNNY LEFTWICH CREATOR OF THE BACKSTAGE VAN
“I wanted to reposition myself into the situation I wanted to be in (in) the first place,” Leftwich said. “I need to be an innovator. I need somebody who is going to be sought after. I need to be someone who is doing something original and unique and interesting.” Uniqueness is the main thing that radiates throughout The Backstage Van project. The idea of one person doing multiple aspects of music media alone is intriguing, and the added possibilities of basing it out of a wholly customized van open up an entirely new dimension to what the project can do. “This is a learning experience for me,” Webb said. “I’ve done cabinetry, carpentry, a few custom projects, but nothing like this. Everything in the van is custom and all serves (Leftwich’s) goal.” The van itself serves not only as a place to live on the road, but also as a space to interview artists. “I (like) to think I have decent music taste,” Leftwich

said. “I know what it’s like to struggle as an artist. If I can help out artists I think are good, maybe make a few bucks along the way, then I’m doing exactly what I want.” Bands in DIY scenes, especially ones in smaller cities, lack many opportunities for publicity and marketing. The mobility of the van and the personal nature it offers is the perfect backdrop for the touring or local band. “We’ve all had the experience of finding a smaller band that only has one album, and you want to learn more about them,” said Raymund Suny, the founder of Heck House. “But (Leftwich) combining these different elements, like photography, interviews or podcasts, gives a better understanding of these bands.” Even though the van is not fully complete, the project is bursting with potential. The passion that Leftwich has for both art and artist is immense and is the foundation of The Backstage Van. This passion, in combination with the uniqueness and originality of the idea, opens up an impressive realm of possibilities for Leftwich and The Backstage Van. Joel Thompson can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

Those people have never been to a Warren Miller film premier. “Timeless” stopped in Fort Collins last week in the midst of its national premier tour. The film features footage from Austria and Switzerland, as well as some beautiful scenes from the Miller crew’s seemingly annual trip to Mike Wiegele’s Heli-Skiing Resort in British Columbia. The film showcased different types of riders from all over the world, with focuses on aptitude at all skill levels and stepping out of your comfort zone.
“That sense of the unknown is what draws Mielzynski and so many others to winter sports.” The real draw of the film for most locals, though, was the extensive footage from Colorado’s own Eldora Mountain Resort. As soon as a drone shot of the resort found its way on screen, the crowd erupted with cheers. This sequence, the film’s longest, followed Cooper Branham, a University of Colorado Boulder student who is just as concerned with his studies as he is getting in his daily laps at Eldora. Similarly to Boulder residents, many Colorado State University students and Fort Collins residents call Eldora their “home mountain.” Located just under 50 miles from Fort Collins, Eldora is the closest comprehensive hill to Colorado State. An equally beautiful segment was filmed at Silverton Mountain, a budding ski hill in the southern Colorado San
Juans. As the film showcased two Alaskan snowboarders ripping massive powder lines along the Matterhorn, the crowd gasped in awe at the sheer size of the mountain faces. The film focused on the ability for riders to always improve. Professionals Caite Zeliff, Connery Lundin, Austin Ross, Olympic mogul skier Jaelin Kauf, Baker Boyd and Erin Mielzynski were all featured in settings that they weren’t familiar with. The most intriguing aspect of the film was the choice to place Olympian slalom skier Mielzynski on the steep terrain of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc in France. “I’d never clipped into a pin binding, so far out of my element, and the people around me have really taken me under their wing,” Mielzynski said. “They pushed me when I had to be pushed. I think a lot of people were a bit afraid of what would happen with me being here.” That sense of the unknown is what draws Mielzynski and so many others to winter sports. The exceptional riding, powder blasting shots and extraordinary scenery can be expected from all of Miller’s films, but it’s the connections to the athletes that draws the crowds every year. It’s what has kept the Miller brand strong for 70 years. Miller passed in early 2018 after not directing a film since 2004, but his production company vowed to keep his legend alive by continuing to release annual films. Since Miller put out his first feature length film in 1950, the movies have served as an unofficial start to the ski season for powder heads across the country.
MORE INFORMATION The film is currently in the middle of an extensive premier tour, playing at over 100 venues across 33 states and nine countries. ■ For details about more Colorado showings, visit warrenmiller.com/events/co. ■

Gamers to rise and grind for ACM Extra Life fundraiser By Elena Waldman @WaldmanElena
Rise and grind, gamers — there’s a new challenge in town, and video game fanatics and fundraising fiends alike are all welcome to participate. The Association for Computing Machinery at Colorado State University is once again throwing its annual fundraiser this weekend from Nov. 8-9 in the Nancy Richardson Design Center. The catch? It’s a 24-hour-long marathon. From 8 p.m. to 8 p.m., participants are encouraged to energize themselves with enough espresso, Red Bull or another choice of caffeine and help fundraise for Extra Life, an organization that raises money for children’s hospitals through gaming marathons.
MORE INFORMATION ■ Fundraising for the Extra Life
charity can be found on their website.
The fundraising goal for this year is $1000, and participants can register on the Extra Life fundraising page and join the Colorado State Game Day Team, as well as encourage friends and family to spare a donation as well. So far, just over half of the original fundraising goal has been met. For those who do not wish to participate in the gaming but do want to donate to the cause, you

Attendees can also make their own fundraising teams with friends or organizations, encouraging competition between who can raise the most money. Abigail Rictor, the coordinator of events at ACM, said this is the
first year this event will be thrown at CSU. “For the last couple of years, I’ve been running game nights through ACM, and they got really popular and they were our most popular meetings,” Rictor said. “A couple of our advisers approached me about this organization, ... and they asked if I would be interested in working on (organizing the event).” Whether you’re a gamer or just a gamer ally, you don’t need to meet a certain skill level to participate; all are welcome to join in on the fun. “Pretty much any community member (is invited),” Rictor said.

MUSIC
Turnover shows a clear concern for aesthetic on ‘Altogether’ By Matt Campbell @mcampnh
For the last 10 years, the Virginia-born band Turnover has dominated the world of pop-punk with their diverse catalogue. On “Altogether,” Turnover continues to experiment with dream-pop and shoegaze, delivering a record that’s perfect for listening to while getting high or doing something else. Since 2013, Turnover has remained a constant in the Boston record label Run For Cover Records’ lineup. Their debut full-length record, “Magnolia,” seemed to fit in with the heavy and abrasive sound coming from label-mates Citizen and Basement that helped create a new wave of emo and poppunk. Turnover’s decided shift in tone, however, was reflected on their 2015 record, “Peripheral Vision.” Like Title Fight’s “Hyperview” and Ceremony’s “The L-Shaped Man,” Turnover demonstrated a departure from fast, angry and to-thepoint pop-punk to a dreamy haze of twinkly guitars and atmospheric sonic textures. The impact of “Peripheral Vision” was one of unexpected magnitude and importance. It helped Turnover establish themselves as a diverse band whose music could be enjoyed by both fans of hardcore and pop-punk, as well as fans who preferred the softer indie rock. In the time since “Peripheral Vision,” the band comfortably experimented with different sub-genres of dream pop, incorporating elements of jazz and bossa nova into their sound. 2017’s “Good Nature” was a bright and happy record that seemed like an ode to the sunshine and the summer, as opposed to “Peripheral Vision,” which plays like a concept album of someone coming to terms with a long-gone relationship. “Altogether,” the band’s
fourth release with Run For Cover Records, is an album that feels more in line with contemporary dream pop and bedroom pop musicians like Rex Orange County and Boy Pablo, sounding somewhere between where they have been and where they want to be. The opener to “Altogether,” “Still In Motion,” incorporates saxophone and washed-out vocals to create what can only be described as a “new jazz” aesthetic before barreling into a steady and hazy groove that seems fitting for much of Turnover’s recent material. “Much After Feeling,” one of two initial singles to be released for the album earlier this year, seems to borrow from the VHS aesthetic: a lo-fi sound similar to vaporwave, a genre popularized by underground artists such as Macintosh Plus. The song rides out in a wash of reverb and synthesizers before transitioning into “Parties.”
“If ‘Altogether’ should be pigeon-holed into any genre, it should be muzak, a form of music meant to be neutral and played in the background of elevators, shopping malls and retail stores.” “Number On The Gate” is a song that, for better or for worse, sounds exactly like Mac DeMarco’s chorus and plinky guitar-driven sound all over his tracks “2” and “Salad Days.” It is accompanied by “Sending Me Right Back,” which starts with a catchy bongo beat and adds to the “muzak” nature of the record. At the middle of the album sits the shortest song, “Ceramic Sky,” which incorporates heavy saxophone and more washed-out vocals. The song is short, sweet and unmistakably vaporwave. Perhaps the most interesting song on the record is “Plant Sugar,” a two-minute tune that rides on driving bass and steady drums, accented by a new wave-inflected and oddly catchy guitar melody. The album ends on “Temporary Love,” a jazzy ballad that fades off into nothing, ending the re-
cord on a similar note to where it started: steady and uninteresting. One constant that has remained in Turnover’s extreme transition from pop-punk to dream pop is lead singer Austin Getz’s sultry vocal delivery. His performance is controlled and fluid, contrary to the band’s earlier works in which he demonstrated a talent for higher-pitched and raspy poppunk vocals. This complements the new material well and allows Getz’s jazz and pop influences to be displayed in full. If “Altogether” should be pigeon-holed into any genre, it should be muzak, a form of music meant to be neutral and played in the background of elevators, shopping malls and retail stores. Each song doesn’t bring much to the table and seems to borrow from many of the more interesting acts that Turnover has been bringing on tour. It appears as though Turnover continues to stray from what has made their earlier works so important in poppunk and, later, shoegaze. “Altogether” demonstrates a point in Turnover’s career that’s full of experimentation and brilliant ideas that never really develop much past what sounds like GarageBand loops. Still, “Altogether” has its moments. The clear influences of jazz make this record different than much of what Turnover’s contemporaries have released in many of the past several years. It is apparent that Turnover is progressing as a band and is taking their music into sonic territory that remains relatively unexplored by poppunk bands who grew up in the scene. Regardless, “Altogether” is an album that seems more focused on its aesthetic than on delivering the deep, introspective and personal music that the band has been known for. Turnover will return to The Gothic Theater on Dec. 4 in support of “Altogether” with Men I Trust and Renata Zeiguer.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) How strange is it that your patience is wearing so thin? It’s because you’re holding it all inside. Not everything should be so red.

Imagine the impact your kind words could have if your negative words have this much. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You want desperately to get away from everything. If you can, go to the lake in the mountains. It doesn’t matter that it’s cold. The water is calling you. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) It’s get-
ting to be time to mourn the loss of your old self. Don’t let it consume you. But it would be even worse to push the sadness down. Everyday is a new day to re-evaluate. Today is that day. Write down what
