CSU sees 3rd-highest fundraising year on record By Piper Russell

@piperrussell10 Even with the challenges presented during the COVID-19 pandemic, Colorado State University has had its third-highest fundraising year ever. 28,078 donors, about 7,000 of which were first-time donors, gave over $178 million to CSU students, programs and faculty. “The act of giving is a choice to believe and invest in the potential of humankind,” said Matthew Helmer, assistant vice president and chief communications officer for University Advancement at CSU. “Doing so during a crisis such as a worldwide pandemic reflects a hopeful optimism that tomorrow will be better and that, through a community such as CSU, we all can be part of creating it.” According to SOURCE, throughout the fiscal year, 2,375 donors gave $271,595 to Rams Against Hunger, an organization that helps CSU community members experiencing food insecurity, including a meal-swipe program, a food pantry, pocket pantries and assistance with federal aid eligibility.

“The surge in giving we experienced to emergency and crisis funds on campus was truly inspirational, as it provided a safety net to sustain our community during an uncertain time, ensuring the learning and teaching at the heart of CSU’s mission could continue,” Helmer said.

“Philanthropy represents the difference between excellence and the status quo at CSU.” KIM TOBIN VICE PRESIDENT FOR UNIVERSITY ADVANCEMENT

377 donors gave $253,240 to Ram Aid. Ram Aid also received an anonymous donation of $1 million in spring of 2020. Ram Aid was founded in 1991

to help low-income students cover unexpected expenses related to their attendance at CSU that may otherwise cause a student to drop out. This program helps with emergency expenses that go beyond food. 294 donors gave $90,752 to CSU’s CARE Program, an aid program for CSU employees. The program provides employees with information on organizations in Northern Colorado that offer lowcost or no-cost services related to health care, food, clothing, housing, transportation and more. CSU also received a $2 million grant from The Anschutz Foundation, a donation to upgrade CSU’s Instrument Rehearsal Hall’s acoustics, $6 million to fund two new service chairs at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital and $1 million for the Center for HumanCarnivore Coexistence. Helmer said the mission of University Advancement is to “connect alumni and donors with their passions at CSU.” The University Advancement team partners with the eight colleges and administrativeunitsatCSU—including Student Affairs, Athletics, Research and the Division of Enrollment and Access

— to identify priorities that align with donors’ interests. “Donors choose what’s important to them and are able to direct their generosity to support this at CSU,” Helmer said. Helmer said this system of fundraising is why donations are reflected across CSU’s entire campus. “Philanthropy represents the difference between excellence and the status quo at CSU,” said Kim Tobin, vice president for University Advancement. “When donors choose

to give, they invest in a more hopeful future, whether that’s providing scholarships to help students achieve their academic dreams, supporting the members of our community facing food insecurity through Rams Against Hunger or boosting infectious disease research that combats worldwide pandemics. Every gift matters and every gift makes a difference in how CSU fulfills our land grant mission.” Piper Russell can be reached at news@collegian.com.

SCIENCE

CSU partners in research project about rural sustainability By Isabel Brown

@isabelbrown02 Colorado State University recently partnered with stakeholders and scientists from seven other schools in a $15 million research project. This project centers on bridging the gap between growing urban communities and the surrounding rural land. Ryan Morrison, assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering, described the project as understanding the impact on rural communities as growth happens. Morrison is one of four coprincipal investigators on this award and is leading CSU’s part in the project, which is called Transforming RuralUrban Systems: Trajectories for Sustainability in the Intermountain West Research Network. He stated that he, personally, focuses on the connection between human and river systems by managing those systems and understanding the impacts humans have on rivers. The University of New Mexico Resilience Institute website mentions this project will have over 50 partners, including tribal, government and non-government partners.

The Resilience Institute website also states they are focusing on ways to increase equity and justice. They will incorporate science as well as collective responses into systems both at the local and regional scales.

“Morrison said CSU has major involvement in this project with many faculty members who have varying expertise in the present themes.”

The project focuses on themes of headwater systems, agricultural systems and governance systems Morrison said. He described their goal as understanding how to increase the sustainability of the links between rural and urban communities through these themes.

“The main drivers are that everything is changing very quickly,” Morrison said. He explained that agriculture is a big part of the Front Range community, and that’s what makes it a valuable part of this project. This project is led by UNM, CSU and other universities in the Intermountain West. Morrison said CSU has major involvement in this project with many faculty members who have varying expertise in the present themes. He said CSU is working to develop web tools to help in research and data collection, and he highlighted the One Water Solutions Institute, which is helpful in developing tools for stakeholders as well as the public to interact with the project. As for what specific tasks this project will accomplish, Morrison said it’s “pretty nebulous at this point because it’s such a big project.” The researchers will first focus on understanding characteristics, attributes and dependencies on the core themes of this project, Morrison said. He said their longterm focus will be on developing a system dynamics model at multiple scales that looks at the feedback of all these themes.

Morrison said they’ll be looking at “how we should incorporate these connections into planning.” There will be some opportunities for student involvement, the majority of which will be carried out through graduate students and their research Morrison said. He added that this project will lead to the development of a curriculum

focused on helping students learn the importance of working with stakeholders in similar projects to this one. Morrison said that recognizing we aren’t on a sustainable track is important, and it’s the first step in making a change in the right direction. Isabel Brown can be reached at news@collegian.com.

On-campus dining options change due to staffing shortages By Natalie Weiland @natgweiland

Dining operations in Colorado State University’s Durrell Center have been restricted to Marketplace and Express services following a staffing shortage. According to an email sent to residence hall students on Sept. 2, Durrell Center’s “all-you-careto-eat” dining services stopped operations on Sept. 5. Both the Durrell Express and Durrell Marketplace options remain available, and the seating area is still open to accommodate students visiting the dining hall. This change in dining services is attributed to low staffing numbers, according to Senior Associate Director of Operations for Residential Dining Services Lucas Miller. “While we spent quite a bit of time and energy recruiting staff this summer, ... there was a notable lacking in application numbers that followed the national shortage trends, particularly in

the food service industry,” Miller wrote in an email to The Collegian. “As the semester kicked off, our incredibly hard-working dining team (comprised of full-time, hourly and student staff ) quickly began to feel these shortages.” Miller said Durrell’s “all-youcare-to-eat” dining option has the lowest student traffic when compared to the other dining centers on campus that offer similar services. Because of this, Housing & Dining Services staff felt it was best to move the Durrell staff to the more highlytrafficked Foundry at Corbett and Parmelee halls. Miller said Durrell continues to offer online ordering through Grubhub and in-person shopping at Marketplace. With the main dining center closed, these remaining options are able to be fully staffed and operational to serve students. This staffing shortage is not specific to CSU’s residential dining services. Many other businesses within the food service

“While we are still experiencing staffing shortages in the dining centers, even with the adjustment to Durrell, we anticipate that this change will provide more coverage and expanded services at all other locations and meet the needs of students.” LUCAS MILLER DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS FOR RESIDENTIAL DINING SERVICES

industry are feeling the effects of a nationwide labor shortage, with some restaurants offering financial incentives to even come in for an interview. According to a July 2021 report by the National Federation of Independent Business, 49% of business owners reported having job openings they were unable to fill, which is a 48-year high. Miller believes the labor shortages at Durrell Center can also be attributed to this trend. “We do believe this is an issue perpetuated by the pandemic,” Miller wrote. “When pandemicrelated restrictions were reduced, the food industry had more job openings than applicants.” For the time being, “all-youcare-to-eat” options are available at other campus dining centers, such as Braiden Dining Center, The Foundry and Ram’s Horn Dining Center. Grubhub pickup is available at both Ram’s Horn and Durrell Marketplaces, and the Durrell Dining Center remains open for seating for students who wish to enjoy their

Grubhub order in the dining hall. “While we are still experiencing staffing shortages in the dining centers, even with the adjustment to Durrell, we anticipate that this change will provide more coverage and expanded services at all other locations and meet the needs of students,” Miller said. In an email to The Collegian, Interim Director of Communications and Sustainability for HDS Marianne Wieghaus said there’s no “definitive timeline” for when students can expect to see regular staffing levels in on-campus dining centers. “Staff are working really hard and creatively every day to find solutions, both short- and longterm,” Wieghaus said. A summary of the current dining center hours around campus can be found on the Housing & Dining Services website. More information on student employment with HDS can be found on Handshake.

SCIENCE

The 2019 vaping debacle, 2 years later By Hayden Hawley @hateonhawley In late 2019, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention began tracking cases of a frightening new lung disease in the United States. The number of patients grew at an alarming rate, and the restrictions put in place to prevent further spread altered the lives of millions. I’m referring of course to EVALI — e-cigarette or vaping use-associated lung injury. 68 died and over 2,800 people were hospitalized by Feb. 18, 2020. Local, state and federal government acted swiftly to combat the new epidemic as cases peaked in mid-September 2019. Some states went so far as to outright ban e-cigarettes from the market for several weeks or months. Two years on, it’s important to remember what came shortly

after: The CDC quietly made a clarification that a strong majority of these cases were linked to bootleg THC vape cartridges, which had been cut with vitamin E acetate to produce a greater profit margin. “It peaked at about Sept. 15, 2019, and then as more public awareness resulted in people using less informal vaping electronic devices, the incidents went down,” said Dr. Russell Bowler, a pulmonologist at National Jewish Health. “I don’t even think it’s being followed by the CDC anymore.” What changed in the two-year interim? Colorado in particular quickly banned vitamin E acetate and other illness-linked contaminants from the market and severely ramped up its testing of products. “There actually are very few fails when you look at it across the board,” said Alena Rodriguez, managing director at Rm3 labs

and a member of the state’s marijuana Science & Policy Work Group. “For flower pesticides, in the first six months of 2020, 98.69% of the batches passed testing. Most of these numbers are 87% and above.”

“Testing is super, super, super important to make sure that what we’re putting on the shelves isn’t going to harm people.” ALENA RODRIGUEZ MANAGING DIRECTOR OF RM3 LABS

According to the experts, vaping THC at this point is a cause of little concern. “In terms of toxicants, I would say they’re similar between two types of vaping,” Bowler said. “In (2019) cases, (vaping) was more toxic than tobacco cigarettes, but I think in general, the answer is the opposite. … While I can’t say that vaping is safe, it’s probably safer than tobacco smoking.” As the cannabis market continues to grow into its new legitimate frame, Colorado officials are using hiccups like this to set an example for how cannabis should be handled at the federal level. “For me personally, that’s always what I’m looking at because that’s the next natural step in our progression of the industry,” Rodriguez said. “Public safety is super important, and even though testing is a financial burden to some companies … that testing is super, super, super important to make

sure that what we’re putting on the shelves isn’t going to harm people. It’s not just immunocompetent adults who are using cannabis, it’s also children, medical patients and grandparents who are using it for different ailments.” As EVALI fades into the background as a distant memory, we can all grab a pen guilt-free and take comfort in the fact that we’re all a little safer than we were a few years ago. “I think it’s super awesome how Colorado is one of the only states to my knowledge that has this stakeholder-focused forum and process for us to actually be involved in writing the rules that we follow,” Rodriguez said. “I’m very grateful to be part of the process and be able to help our industry be better, be more legitimate, be good ‘corporate citizens,’ as they say.” Hayden Hawley can be reached at cannabis@collegian.com.

CANNABIS TIPS

Best cannabis gadgets, accessories, necessities By Lindsay Barker

@lindsaybarkerj One of the best parts about consuming cannabis is the fun gadgets and accessories that go along with it. I have a collection of different tools I like to use to make smoking easier, healthier and more fun. The list below outlines a few of my favorites. Lighter Charms are great for conserving weed and a nice tool for indoor smokers.They are small silicone bands with magnetic borosilicate glass buttons that fit around almost any lighter. Lighter charms are used to snuff out a bowl when you’re smoking and don’t want to be wasteful. It prevents the weed from continuing to burn so you can get the most out of a bowl. It’s also an excellent tool for discretion — if you’re smoking indoors, you can use the lighter charm to snuff a bowl before exhaling the smoke into a Smokebuddy to get rid of the smoke entirely. Rob Healy, founder of Lighter Charms, comes from an advertising background and came up with the idea after his initial introduction to cannabis. After going through open-heart surgery and receiving a mechanical heart valve, Healy was told by his doctor he could no longer drink wine. Cannabis, however, was perfectly fine. “I went to light my bowl and I started to put it out, and I was like, ‘How am I supposed to do this?’”

Healy said. “I could use my hand, I could use the bottom of my lighter, but that’s gonna stink it up.” After researching the decorative lighter market, Healy eventually came up with the Lighter Charm as a functional solution to his problem. The charms come in a variety of designs and can also be customized with company logos. Lighter charms are also a great tool for selfexpression and can be interchanged and customized. For Healy, that’s his favorite part of the product. “I like collecting the charms and putting them in,” Healy said. “You know, it matches how you feel. I can identify my lighter now, and I hate wasting weed.” The Moose Labs MouthPeace is a silicone mouthpiece with a triplelayer carbon filter inside. This product will save your lungs and prevent the spread of germs. I discovered the MouthPeace through Instagram early this year, and now I refuse to smoke without it. You place it at the end of your smoking device and inhale through it, filtering out tar and contaminants in the process. The MouthPeace does all this without removing THC molecules, creating a less harsh and more flavorful bong rip. Along with the benefits to your lungs, this product promotes more sanitary smoking habits. If everyone smoking has their own MouthPeace, they are able to switch MouthPeace’s with each pass of the bong, eliminating the spread of germs.

The MouthPeace was created originally as a sanitary smoking device without an air filter, according to Moose Labs CEO and co-founder Jay Rush. It wasn’t until after Rush had a chance encounter with a mysterious seed grower at a Denver cannabis event that the filter came into play. “He said, ‘Man, the mouthpiece is cool, but you gotta add a filter,’” Rush recounted. He informed the man he and the other co-founders had already tried to add an air filter, but it didn’t work. “‘Man, try harder,’” the stranger replied, so they took the weed man’s advice.

“We spent 16 months developing it and doing (research and development) on it and came out with it, and now we have the MouthPeace and filters that you know today,” Rush said, adding that they never saw the mystical man again. Hemp wick is another tool that promotes healthier cannabis consumption. It’s a long string of hemp twine coated in beeswax and can be a safer alternative to traditional lighters. I like to wrap hemp wick around my lighters, and instead of lighting the bowl with the lighter, I light the hemp wick and use that to light the bowl. In doing so, you eliminate inhaling the harmful gasses

emitted from the lighter and also create a better-tasting hit. Along with the products mentioned above, I also like to make my own cannabis accessories. I make roach clips, pokers, dab tools and bong charms. I like to use thin metal wire and a variety of beads to make colorful and functional accessories. If you’re interested in adding some arts and crafts to your cannabis routine on a budget, you can buy supplies at most craft stores like Michaels or JOANN Fabric and Craft Stores.

Student art is back on campus — don’t miss out

Alumni of Colorado State University’s Lory Student Center Arts Program exhibit mixed media art at the Curfman Gallery in the exhibition titled ‘Some Time Later’ Sept. 12. PHOTO BY PRATYOOSH KASHYAP THE COLLEGIAN

By Dylan Tusinski @unwashedtiedye

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. In the Lory Student Center, there’s a sharp contrast between two sides of a small hallway. Just inside the south entrance, there’s the often-crowded Intermissions Cafe with a line that stretches down the hall. On the opposite side, there’s the Curfman Gallery, which holds Colorado State University students’ artwork and is usually devoid of people. This indistinct hallway shows a prevalent issue among the CSU community: No one seems to care about our on-campus art. One of the biggest reasons behind the apparent lack of care for CSU’s art may very well be how accessible art has become. Through the internet, social media and new digital mediums, art has become easier to access and create. No longer do artists have to physically put their art into a gallery to be viewed — they can

simply share it with thousands of eyes at the tap of a button. The digitization of art has also taken away some portion of art’s inherent emotional meaning. Whether you’re creating art or enjoying it, you’re indulging in one of the most essential human traditions we have: the process of exploring your emotions through the medium of art.

“Going and seeing the art on campus for any reason is a worthwhile endeavor because it allows you to open yourself up.”

Art is often inspired by and created with intangible emotions — there’s an element of art that you have to be present for to

understand. Seeing an image of Van Gogh’s “The Starry Night,” for example, pales in comparison to seeing the painting in person. That necessary physical element of engaging with art is part of why CSU puts in so much effort in the arts on campus. As a result, the LSC Arts Program has the express goal of “seeking to bring the visual arts to all students at CSU.” To the University’s credit, it has done a great job accomplishing its goal of making art accessible and present on campus. Colorado State’s department of art and art history curates several galleries across campus. Whether you’re visiting the full-scale Gregory Allicar Museum of Art, the Avenir Museum of Design and Merchandising, the pieces scattered around Morgan Library or the Curfman Gallery, the University and its departments and programs have fostered an incredibly art-friendly environment. Regardless of how accessible the galleries themselves are, the truth behind almost any art remains: It’s meant to be emotional. When you go to an art gallery, the art you’re seeing is meant to convey emotion and meaning. It’s

meant to be personal. Going and seeing the art on campus for any reason is a worthwhile endeavor because it allows you to open yourself up.

“Even though going and viewing the art is only a small action, having people in the galleries is one of the most important and visible ways to support artists, whether at CSU or not.”

The Curfman Gallery’s current exhibition in particular showcases art exploring concepts like mental health, race and love. The art in the gallery made me consider my deeper emotions, thoughts and experiences with each of those

subjects, and it was an experience that was definitely worth having. The art across campus could give you a similar experience. Outside of abstract emotional experiences and concepts, it’s worth going to any of the number of galleries across campus solely to support the broader CSU environment. One of the mantras that permeates the entire CSU community is “Rams take care of Rams,” and one of the best ways for us to take care of our art-inclined Rams is to support their art when it’s on display. Even though going and viewing the art is only a small action, having people in the galleries is one of the most important and visible ways to support artists, whether at CSU or not. CSU’s on-campus galleries have been mostly empty for the last year or so due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and only recently did they reopen their doors to students with new displays of art to enjoy, yet they still remain mostly empty. I’ll be in those galleries as often as I can for the rest of this semester. Will you? Dylan Tusinski can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

Climate change is hurting Colorado’s outdoor industry By JD Meltzner

@jd_meltzner 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. Between the rampant forest fires and record-breaking temperatures that have plagued Colorado for the past several years, it’s impossible to ignore the impact climate change has had on our state. The negative impacts of climate change are quickly bleeding into Colorado’s economy. Colorado historically has a culture of spending time in nature. When people visit Colorado, they come to partake in these activities and enjoy the unique experiences in nature that only this state can offer. Colorado’s ski resorts are a major example of this, but we also tout great fishing, hiking, boating and other activities as major reasons for visitors to travel here. Colorado’s outdoor industry is not only a huge part of the state’s culture but also a huge part of our economy. The outdoor industry has supported our economy quite well, but due to the recent effects of climate change, the industry is taking major hits. The rivers that used to be lined with fishermen are seeing restrictions due to low water levels and warm temperatures. Lakes that were filled with boats every weekend are now

silent because of the low water levels grounding boats in the marinas. Colorado retailers have even seen a decrease in insulated winter jacket sales due to winters getting shorter and warmer.

“The relationship between nature and the outdoor industry is a symbiotic one, both giving to each other, and right now the attack on one is bleeding into the other in a way we’ve never seen.”

According to the Colorado Wildlife Council, fishing alone contributes $2.45 billion a year to Colorado’s economy, which makes climate change a very serious economic issue. Beyond the negative impacts that climate change has unleashed on our environment, it is now threatening both our economy as well as our culture as a state. Both citizens and members of the outdoor industry must step up — and quickly.

Russ Schumacher is the Colorado state climatologist, director of the Colorado Climate Center and an associate professor of atmospheric science at Colorado State University. Schumacher said the biggest impact on Colorado, specifically, is droughts hurting the water supply. He acknowledged that droughts in this region are nothing new in the big picture, but climate change was “changing (from) moderate to extreme,” and the droughts are far more impactful now due to their severity. Discussing how these factors are also affecting the outdoor industry, Schumacher identified Colorado’s worsening air quality due to forest fires as something that could have a large impact. He said it’s possible the air quality could also be affecting how often people engage in outdoor activities because they are now more aware of it than ever, even “checking their phones to see the air quality index before they go out.” What can be done about this? Schumacher said that, in his opinion, renewable energy and the push to use eco-friendly power sources are some of the most important things companies can do in their business models to make a difference in the fight against climate change. Schumacher also discussed how Colorado’s outdoor industry could avoid a serious decline in the coming years and said adaptability to climate change was essential. Using the example of Colorado ski resorts combating

low snowpack, Schumacher explained how “resorts got ahead of climate change (by introducing) snowmaking.”

“Our state is not only economically dependent on the outdoors but also culturally dependent.”

Schumacher explained how, even with all of these climate change factors impacting our state, “We

are not resigned to the worst-case scenario.” Instead, it depends on us to make changes and strive to leave a smaller footprint. Our state is not only economically dependent on the outdoors but also culturally dependent, and if years of climate change and reports detailing its effects have not made enough of an impression to spur change, I hope this does. The relationship between nature and the outdoor industry is a symbiotic one, both giving to each other, and right now the attack on one is bleeding into the other in a way we’ve never seen. So please recognize this and make a change — before it’s too late. JD Meltzner can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

SERIOUSLY

The microchip in my vaccine is malfunctioning By Bella Eckburg @yaycolor

Editor’s Note: This is a satire piece from The Collegian’s opinion section. Real names and the events surrounding them may be used in fictitious/semi-fictitious ways. Those who do not read the editor’s notes are subject to being offended. Early last week, I finally reached full immunity against the original COVID-19 strain, and you can’t even imagine how excited I was. I have been researching everything there is to know about this virus on 4chan, and the knowledge that I can now fight it inside my body is game-changing.

“If you know how to code, please email me ASAP because my microchip is certainly malfunctioning and, ironically, has a virus.” I know a lot of people are worried about the effects of the vaccine, specifically being magnetized. I’ve

thumped a spoon on my forehead six times now, and nothing’s happened yet. Granted, my spine is mostly titanium, so I probably already adjusted to being constantly magnetic, but I was excited to experience this nonetheless. If I’m being honest, the Reddit thread about this magnetization is pretty hard to follow, so I’m starting to think it’s one of those late-onset symptoms that will show up eventually. I’ve only been fully immune for a week and a half, so God only knows what’s in store for me. I’m beginning to think my microchip has a manufacturing error. When I scrolled through my Facebook feed, I saw that the microchip in the vaccine would allow the government to track me and directly send me important messages. A lot of people are worried about this, but I was pretty excited. I’d never have to worry about going missing because the government would be keeping tabs on me, and I’d be the first to know about important information before it’s released to the general public. Anyway, mine is broken. Instead of receiving the nuclear launch codes and scandalous information I was promised, I’ve just received repeated messages from hot singles in my area begging to meet up with me. If we’re getting personal, I’ve struggled a lot in relationships. I have tried countless times to communicate with these hot

singles, but it seems like the microchip does not come with any ability to respond. It’s extremely frustrating that I’m not receiving every single document ever filed or faxed to Area 51 because I was promised pertinent information, and it’s dually upsetting when I think about all the lovely, lonely singles who will never know that I’ve heard their call.

“President Joe Biden won’t answer my phone calls — granted, I am yelling at him every time I call — and the United States Secret Service sent me a cease and desist letter in the mail.” Additionally, my brain is constantly buzzing with penis enlargement pill ads, and I don’t have a penis — this is definitely an algorithm error the government needs to address ASAP. As much as I love all of the attention from these singles who want to meet me, I can’t figure out how to turn down the volume of these messages, and they keep me

up late into the night. Congress passed the Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation Act in 2012, so why are these ads so loud that there is literal blood seeping out of my ears onto my pillow at night? Maybe this is just a form of advertising peer pressure, and if I buy the product, the messages will stop. That didn’t work on Instagram though, so I doubt it’ll work in this case. I don’t want to be a complainer like those liberals on Twitter, but I’m feeling fed up with the government’s lack of customer service. President Joe Biden won’t answer my phone calls — granted, I am yelling at him every time I call — and the United States Secret Service sent me a cease and desist letter in the mail. Like, now they can track me and get my address, but they can’t get

me in contact with a specialist in microtechnology? It’s ridiculous. The worst part of this situation has to be the fact that most of the hot singles in my area aren’t willing to meet up at all! The microchip was supposed to allow me to bypass fake news, but it doesn’t even screen for catfishing? This is bull. So I’m reaching out to all of you college-aged nerds to let me know how to hack into my microchip and adjust the settings. Biden refuses to help me, a true patriotic American citizen, and I’m concerned that my microchip is getting too crowded by spam. If you know how to code, please email me ASAP because my microchip is certainly malfunctioning and, ironically, has a virus. Bella Eckburg can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

EDITORIAL

With pride, The Collegian stands with students

Leibee is the editor in chief at The Rocky Mountain Collegian, Bettis the content managing editor and Cornelius the digital and design managing editor. PHOTO BY CAT BLOUCH THE COLLEGIAN

By Katrina Leibee, Serena Bettis and Devin Cornelius @csucollegian Editor’s Note: This is an editorial. Editorials do not reflect the view of all employees of The Collegian but instead represent a stance taken by The Collegian’s editorial board, which consists of the editor in chief, the content managing editor and the digital and design managing editor. To the Colorado State University community: The editorial board of The Rocky Mountain Collegian stands with you. Last week, only one month into being fully back on campus, our community saw what we could, at the time, only describe as a ruckus; some type of major commotion that we have not seen since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Of course, like many other CSU students, we were inclined to roll our eyes and go along with our days after seeing social media posts about people gathered around preachers on The Plaza. It’s nothing new to see students and preachers shouting at each other in small circles while heading to class. Yet what happened last week felt entirely different. Although hearing biblical speak about the so-called immorality of identifying and living as LGBTQ+ is nothing unique, what we later learned last Wednesday afternoon was it was much more vindictive and hateful than that. But the truly novel thing about it was that students stopped arguing. They stopped trying to prove a point that would never register, and they stopped attacking one another.

CSU students united against hate last week, and we at The Collegian think that is a beautiful thing. Newer students may not understand how rare this feels, but for those of you who have been around to see the shouting matches between political groups or the intense debates between the Associated Students of CSU and students demanding change, you can speak to the divisions in the CSU student body. Being on The Plaza last week was not one of those times.

“The sight of students with so many different Pride flags made my heart weep; the sheer number of people who stood out in the heat to tell someone spouting hate to just leave gave me a greater feeling of acceptance than any generic statement from the University ever could.” Our coverage was indicative of the teamwork The Collegian thrives on. After coming out of classes and seeing the commotion, we had multiple photographers and reporters

immediately take action and begin investigating what was going on. Katrina Leibee, our editor in chief, completed interviews on the spot between phone calls to plan how we would approach the topic. Once Serena Bettis, our content managing editor, sat down to write the story, we quickly realized this story needed to be on the cover of our print paper the next day. Within just a few hours, our photographer, Tri Duong, had his photos edited; our print editor, Falyn Sebastian, created a new cover; and our copy editors were checking the story. The point is, CSU students, you rallied around your peers, and you inspired us to rally, too. As a queer journalist, last week stood out to me, Serena, significantly. The sight of students with so many different Pride flags made my heart weep; the sheer number of people who stood out in the heat to tell someone spouting hate to just leave gave me a greater feeling of acceptance than any generic statement from the University ever could. Despite that, I was anxious about the story the entire night before we went to print. Even days later, I had nightmares about losing my journalistic credibility because I did not remove myself from this story when it so closely impacted me personally. There’s this old trend in journalism about how in order to do the job properly, you have to completely separate yourself from your work. Don’t register for a political party lest someone accuse you of bias; don’t speak out on the atrocities in the world because that could sway your reporting; don’t cover something that

is close to your identity — even if there is not an ethical conflict of interest — because you can’t be impartial. Does the fact that I identify as queer make me biased in my reporting on the story? Because I support these students, as a queer student myself, is it possible I’ve been unfair to the preachers who came to campus? I don’t think so. Even as a queer journalist, I recognize and respect the right to free speech these preachers have on our campus. After all, without that freedom, our protections as a news organization would be in danger. In law, government land is seen as a public forum — a physical, government-subsidized space for expression — thus, because CSU is a government-funded public institution, the entirety of our campus — especially outside and especially on The Plaza — functions as a public forum in some capacity. What this means is that CSU and the CSU Police Department are not allowed to remove someone just for the words they say, hateful as they may be. The University would need specific, thorough reasons to do so, and in a court of law those restrictions will only be upheld if they have to do with the time, place and manner of the speech. Viewpoint-based restrictions on speech are rarely accepted. Additionally, multiple United States Supreme Court cases have set precedents for situations similar to ours. In the 1945-46 case of Marsh v. Alabama and the 1968 case of Amalgamated Food Employees Union Local 590 v. Logan Valley Plaza, Inc., the Supreme Court ruled that speech could not be restricted, even on private property, because the companies had

no prior history of regulating speech on their property. Moreover, the law has found it extremely difficult to define hate speech and take action when hate speech has been identified. For that to happen, a clear criminal act has to occur alongside the speech. Unless the University creates community requirements for speech on campus and actively enforces those regulations, they have no legal power in these situations. So yes, those preachers have a right to be here as much as you, the community, has a right to protest them. That being said, the University needs to do more for its students, and we stand with you on that. An email that vaguely explains the First Amendment — an email that no one at our institution could even personally sign — coupled with a link to student support services is not supporting the students. Hateful speech does more than hurt; it kills. CSU community members, we are with you. We see you, we hear you and we stand with you because we are you. Our mission is to diligently report on the issues that matter most to you and keep you informed on the actions this University takes. So please, keep coming together as a community. Keep standing together, and we will be right there alongside you. With pride, The Collegian Editorial Board Katrina Leibee, editor in chief Serena Bettis, content managing editor Devin Cornelius, digital and design managing editor The Collegian Editorial Board can be reached at editor@collegian.com.

Vanderbilt upsets Colorado State in week 2 orange out

A guide to caring for and maintaining houseplants By Anna Jelden Plants can be a great way to decorate your home, apartment, or give life and vibrance to a dull space. Being a plant parent may seem intimidating if you don’t know where to start. However, there are many houseplants that require little maintenance and can thrive in a variety of conditions.

By Karsyn Lane @karsynlane1 Changes have been made well before kickoff for Colorado State to return from its season-opening setback with the excitement found at Canvas Stadium on Sept. 11, as the Rams took on the Vanderbilt University Commodores in a sea of orange to celebrate Ag Day. Starting off strong, the Rams did not hesitate to take the lead against the Commodores. In the first two minutes, senior quarterback Todd Centeio passed to the right for three yards to senior running back David Bailey, who advanced to the first touchdown of the night.

“I was hoping that wouldn’t come back to haunt us. I felt like it should have been 28-0 at the half, and we didn’t do it.” STEVE ADDAZIO HEAD COACH

The Rams didn’t stop there, as the team pushed their way down the field for several completions, finishing off the first quarter in the lead. With no hesitation and only a minute into the second quarter, Bailey rushed the middle for his second touchdown of the night followed by junior kicker Cayden Camper’s field goal, which set the

Rams at a 14-0 lead fresh into the second quarter. With energy levels at an all-time high, the Rams came out ready to play. At only a minute left in the second quarter, Vanderbilt senior Chris Pierce Jr. completed the Commodores’ first touchdown followed by senior kicker Joseph Bulovas’ field goal, putting the score at 14-7. “I was hoping that wouldn’t come back to haunt us,” head coach Steve Addazio said at halftime. “I felt like it should have been 28-0 at the half, and we didn’t do it.” As the third quarter rolled out, Vanderbilt didn’t hesitate to challenge our Rams. In the ninth minute, senior Cam Johnson rushed nine yards to complete the Commodores’ second touchdown followed by Bulovas’ second field goal, tying the Rams 14-14. While the Rams’ defense dwindled, the Commodores pushed through as sophomore quarterback Ken Seals rushed the third touchdown, yet again completed by Bulovas’ field goal, leaving the third quarter at Vanderbilt leading 21-14. With the fourth quarter wrapping up, the Rams were fighting to keep the Commodores from closing the game. With only three minutes left, the Rams made their way to the end zone as Trey McBride scored followed by Camper’s field goal, tying 21-21. With seconds left, Vanderbilt’s kicker, Bulovas, ended the game, taking the lead 24-21. As the Rams take this defeat head-on, they prepare for what the upcoming weeks have away from Canvas Stadium. Next Saturday, Colorado State University takes on the University of Toledo in Toledo, Ohio, at Glass Bowl Stadium. Karsyn Lane can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

Plant Bio Also known as the “Swiss Cheese plant” because of its distinctive fenestrations, the monstera deliciosa makes a great houseplant for beginners. The monstera is native to tropical forests in Mexico and Panama and is a vining plant. A mature monstera may need a stake or moss pole to climb on. For an extra boost of humidity, they can be misted once a week. A monstera’s leaves can easily collect dust/dirt and should be wiped with a damp cloth to keep them clean and healthy. A well-draining potting mix with perlite and coco coir is best for this plant. Because this plant is toxic if ingested, it should be kept away from pets and children.

Can tolerate low light but prefers bright, indirect sunlight Water every 1-2 weeks, when the top half of soil is dry Avoid cold drafts and places directly near heaters and air conditioners

Did You Know? Plants need sunscreen too! Just like us, plants can get sunburned if they spend too much time in the sun. While you aren’t able to layer SPF on your plant’s leaves, you can prevent plant sunburn by paying attention to how much light your plant needs and what type of light it should be (i.e. bright, indirect, low ,etc.). If sunburned, a plant’s leaves may change color to brown, white, or yellow.

ouch!

SOCCER

Colorado State soccer defeats Idaho State in Ag Week finale By Bailey Shepherd @b_sheps

It was a bountiful end to Ag Week for the Colorado State University women’s soccer team as they cruised past the visiting Idaho State University in a 6-0 game Sept. 12.

“It’s the first win of the season, so we’re all super pumped. It was definitely a team effort today. We’re all really proud of ourselves.” LIV LAYTON JUNIOR MIDFIELDER

The win is the first of the campaign for the Rams as well as the first win for new head coach Keeley Hagen. CSU improved their record to 1-2-2 through the first five games of the regular season, and it couldn’t have come at a better time. It’s been a frustrating opening stretch for Colorado State, but it seems they’ve finally found their finishing touch.

Before Sunday’s rout, the Rams fell short in their opening regular-season games while struggling on the defensive side of things by conceding nine goals, including two 4-0 blowout losses to Texas Tech University and Kansas State University. Those offensive and defensive woes were nowhere to be found Sunday, however, as this team was playing to its full potential in every aspect of play. The Rams showed no mercy on offense in the early stages by peppering Idaho State’s goal with 15 shots in the first half, forcing Bengals goalkeeper McKayla Wetsel to make five saves in the first 20 minutes of the game alone. Wetsel was putting her team on her back in the first half-hour of the game as Idaho State struggled to get out of their own half of the field. She could only do so much on her own, however, as the first breakthrough for the Rams came after winger Liv Layton set up Kaitlyn Abrams to make it 1-0 after 27 minutes. “It’s the first win of the season, so we’re all super pumped,” Layton said. “It was definitely a team effort today. We’re all really proud of ourselves.” Four minutes later, Layton went from servicing her teammate to scoring herself off a Gracie Armstrong assist to give Colorado State a 2-0 lead.

Layton and Armstrong linked up once again for CSU’s third goal, with Layton providing a pass to the technically gifted Armstrong, who put the shot away to make it 3-0 two minutes before halftime. The Bengals only managed one shot in the entire first half, which failed to trouble Rams keeper Amanda Green as it was off-target. It was more of the same for Colorado State in the second half. Senior forward Kristen Noonan led from the front as she got in on the act by finding the back of the net eight minutes into the second half off Caroline Lucas’ first career assist to make the Rams’ fourth goal. It took another 20 minutes for the Rams to score again, and it was Noonan, this time being serviced by freshman Ali Yoshida, to make it a 5-0 game. Armstrong put the nail in the coffin with her second goal of the game in the 85th minute, while Green made two saves in the final minutes of the game to protect the clean sheet and give the Rams their 6-0 victory. This is the win the Rams needed as they begin their conference-only portion of their schedule next week when they take on the 2019 Mountain West Conference runner-up San Diego State University Sept. 24 and the University of New Mexico Sept. 26 in Fort Collins.

VOLLEYBALL

Colorado State Rams volleyball dominates double header By Tyler Meguire @tmeguire

As Colorado State University hosted a four-team tournament, the Rams took care of business in their two Friday games. The Rams started the day against the Southern Illinois University Edwardsville Cougars at noon and then took on the Oregon State University Beavers later that evening. CSU got some rest before their match against OSU at 7:30 p.m. The Rams dominated the Cougars from start to finish as they played just three sets to secure the win with scores of 25-12, 25-13 and 25-8. For such a short match, the Rams stuffed the stat sheet with four different leaders in five categories.

Kills: Karina Leber (11), Kennedy Stanford (8), Jacqi Van Liefde (6).

Aces: Alexa Roumeliotis (4), Stanford (3), Alyssa Bert (2).

Blocks: Naeemah Weathers (4), Leber (3), Ciera Pritchard (2). Assists: Pritchard (29), Roumeliotis (8), Barrett Power (1).

Digs: Roumeliotis (12), Pritchard (4), Stanford (4).

The Rams did better than SIUE in every category. CSU at least doubled SIUE in aces (12-3), blocks (8-4), assists (3819) and digs (28-11). The only category the Rams did not double the Cougars was kills. However, CSU had 18 more kills than the Cougars put up (39-21). “You can’t improve upon what we did today very much,” coach

Tom Hilbert said. “What we did today was play very cleanly. We missed very few serves; we didn’t hit unforced hitting errors. ... We forced this team to have to work to score. When you do that, everyone’s momentum goes up, their comfort goes up. Every kid we brought off the bench hit well too. It was really a good match for us.” It was onto the next one for the Rams with a Pacific-12 Conference opponent coming into Moby Arena. Normally full of green and gold, Moby was flowing in a sea of orange for an orange out to finish the day. Along with the orange out, it was a special night for Hilbert and the team. Hilbert won his 600th CSU match on Sept. 4 against North Carolina State University. For the 600th win, Hilbert was honored

at the beginning of Friday’s game with fans all around the arena holding up signs to celebrate. But the ceremony had to end, and it was time for the Rams to try to do something special for the hometown crowd. CSU and OSU went back and forth for five sets. The Beavers jumped up on top, taking the first set 25-21. Then the Rams tied the match up and took control in the following two sets (25-21 and 25-16) to take a match lead. OSU did not come to Colorado to drop three sets in a row and tied the match up in a close fourth set, 25-23. The Rams then closed it out 15-13 in the final set, however, and sent the Beavers packing. The leaders for the Rams were familiar, but some dabbled in different categories.

Kills: Van Liefde (16), Leber (13), Annie Sullivan (10).

Aces: Pritchard (4), Brooke Hudson (2), Bert (2).

Blocks: Weathers (4), Pritchard (3), Leber (3). Assists: Pritchard (44), Sasha Colombo (1), Roumeliotis (1). Digs: Roumeliotis (29), Pritchard (11), Hudson (8).

The Rams only led the Beavers in aces (10-7), assists (46-45) and digs (63-60). The Beavers had more kills (56-52) and blocks (15-9). The Rams entered Saturday with a 3-3 record, winning their last three games. Tyler Meguire can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

COVER STORY

‘Designers for Glaser’ honors artist’s life and impact By Kota Babcock @kotababcock Colorado State University’s Clara Hatton Gallery presents “Designers for Glaser,” a homage to the designer responsible for some of the more prevalent images in pop culture. Milton Glaser died in 2020 at the age of 91 and spent his lifetime creating posters and other designs. He was most well known for the “I Love New York” graphic as well as a Bob Dylan poster. “Artists and graphic designers came together to create graphic posters in homage to Milton Glaser’s life and his work,” said Silvia Minguzzi, director of the Hatton Gallery & Digital Performing Space. “We have a collection of 86 posters coming from all over the world. ... It’s a real international effort.” Glaser founded Push Pin Studios in the mid-1950s with Seymour Chwast and Edward Sorel. This studio came to be one of the most influential design organizations in U.S. art history, pushing through memorable works to public audiences. “(Glaser and Push Pin Studios) had a different approach about graphic design and illustration, which was very multiculturally influenced,” said John Gravdahl, a graphic design professor at CSU. Jason Frazier, an assistant professor of graphic design at CSU, said this exhibit shows exactly how influential and big an artist or designer’s life can be. Some of those working on the exhibit hope that after seeing the show, visitors can consider the immense impact Glaser had on not just the U.S. but also the world. Because graphic design was a relatively new means of art and visual communication, Push Pin Studios artists and other designers of the time were limitless in how they created posters, shirts and other designs. Graphic design offered a new means of speech and communication as a whole. “It’s all about the idea,” Gravdahl said. “In design, it’s the idea first, and if it doesn’t have a (good) idea behind it, it’s just a patterned wallpaper. If there (are) no communications behind it, it doesn’t matter (regardless of ) what media it is.” In Glaser’s life, he did not stick to a single medium or design type. He went from posters to advertisements to magazine covers and more. Frazier said this really shows people the way in which design impacts our lives. Frazier said that from the exhibit, audiences will get “to see that design can be a lot bigger than one thing and, additionally, that it can be a lot of fun — that you can use humor and silliness as a perfect part to (express) an important message.”

Roberto Muntoreanu, assistant professor of graphic design, said the participants in this exhibition are from all over the world. It includes artists from Russia and Bolivia. “We have some designers that did a deep exploration,” Muntoreanu said. “I think looking at the posters, we can see that it’s very broad, the inspiration of Glaser.” Muntoreanu added that some of the designers featured even knew Glaser personally, while others only knew him through his work. “Designers for Glaser”is presented this fall thanks to a collaboration between the Colorado International Invitational Poster Exhibition and Bienal del Cartel Bolivia along with a few other partners. After BICeBé struggled to promote their exhibition during the pandemic, they reached out to CIIPE and CSU’s department of art and art history. After being offered an exhibition on the University’s campus, the collaboration began. Thanks to strong relationships between BICeBé and CIIPE, especially between Gravdahl and BICeBé director Susana Machicao, the exhibition survived the challenge of COVID-19 closures. In addition to these leaders, the Golden Bee, the National Design Biennial UBA — Argentina and the International Poster Festival of the University of Buenos Aires worked alongside Diseñadores Gráficos Bolivia and the Aurea Foundation for the Visual Arts and Design to produce this curation of designs. “This exhibit (is happening) in Bolivia because this is a partnership with BICeBé,” Muntoreanu said. “We also are going to have the same exhibit in Buenos Aires and Argentina.” “Designers for Glaser” opens Sept. 16, in the Hatton Gallery inside of the Visual Arts Building on CSU’s main campus, located at 551 W. Pitkin St. in Fort Collins. Viewers can celebrate the opening alongside gallery staff and experts on Glaser from 4:30-7 p.m. in the gallery. The exhibition continues until Oct. 15 and is free and open to the community. The Hatton Gallery is open from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and closes for University holidays, breaks and football games. The Hatton Gallery is wheelchair-accessible and a space to check coats and bags will be provided. It is asked that guests do not bring food and drinks into the gallery in an effort to preserve the exhibition works. For those who are unable to see the exhibition in person, an online catalog is available on the exhibit’s website. Kota Babcock can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

MUSIC

Wes Kenney carries symphony to live performance By Kota Babcock @kotababcock

As musicians around the country faced the devastating loss of live performance, conductor Wes Kenney offered innovative solutions for his symphony. Now, he moves into a new season with “Reflections: The Emotions of Music,” which is expected to be completely in-person with streaming options. As COVID-19 closed down recital halls, Kenney worked his hardest to get musicians working and found ways to pay them when work wasn’t an option. Kenney works as a professor at Colorado State University in addition to conducting with the Fort Collins Symphony, and he’s a well-known member of the Fort Collins community. “Wes is a part of the community, and that really helped (during COVID-19),” said Ethan Hecht, the principal violist and orchestra librarian for the symphony. “He knows the venues, he knows the people involved. ... Wes was really ambitious and really thoughtful about making sure we could get the musicians back to work as much as possible and as soon as possible.”

Kenney and his orchestra longed to return to the stage, but much was dependent on local health restrictions and how safe audiences would feel. Alongside his staff, Kenney prepared a season that would allow for inperson and digital viewing. “It’s been almost 20 months since we had regular concerts with a full orchestra,” Kenney said. “All indications are that people are really excited to be able to hear live music again.” Kenney’s work inspires and expresses his view of the world. This season, Kenney expresses the variety of emotions he felt with his community and with his symphony through song. As they return, the symphony features songs with emotions ranging from connection to longing to rage. With composers who made their arrangements in the classical period to those writing in the middle of contemporary civil unrest and anti-racist action, the symphony works to connect its audience to the present while still enjoying lessons of the past. While the classics aren’t forgotten in the symphony’s new season, new and forgotten arrangements and compositions are highlighted as a part of these emotional shows.

“So much of my performing career, which is over 20 years now, it’s the same music over and over again,” Hecht said. “Of course, I love that music. It’s really neat to see orchestras now going back and realizing how much music there is out there that hasn’t been programmed or has been forgotten.” Among the featured compositions is a piece by Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson, a Black composer of the 20th century who wrote the arrangement based on a poem describing war, change and death. Additionally, Jessie Montgomery’s “Banner” is played in place of the national anthem and as a look into the future of what the national anthem can mean for all Americans. “I hope that (the community) will follow Wes,” Hecht said. “I hope they’ll follow his introduction (to new music and conductors).” “Reflections” celebrates the human capacity for feeling in four signature concerts. The shows are named after their most highlighted emotions with “Fury, Contemplation & Hope;” “Energized, Unsure & Triumphant;” “Solemn, Joyful & Ecstatic;” and “Anxious, Tender & Jaunty.” The shows feature a mix of famous and lesser-known compositions, showing Kenney and the orchestra’s

dedication to bringing something new to this season. “You don’t always just hear it as an aural experience,” Kenney said. “It is also a felt experience because the vibrations of a concert hall become so important on that overall impact on somebody who’s actually sitting there listening.” With “Reflections,” the symphony aims to celebrate the new and lasting connections it has with audience members while also exploring how the past year has changed the world. Kenney believes that orchestras have a unique role to play in helping us understand emotion. “What symphony orchestras play explores every facet of the human experience,” Kenney said. “Reflections: The Emotions of Music” kicks off its season with its first signature concert of the year in The Lincoln Center, located at 417 W. Magnolia St. in Fort Collins, at 7:30 p.m. on Oct. 2. Guest violinist Linda Wang will join the symphony on stage to perform Leonard Bernstein’s “Serenade after Plato’s Symposium,” and other shows will feature guest musicians to celebrate the opportunity for live performance. Kota Babcock can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

ENTERTAINMENT

‘Only Murders in the Building’ delivers true crime By Kadyn Thorpe

@thorpekadyn Steve Martin, Selena Gomez and Martin Short star in Hulu’s new whodunnit series, “Only Murders in the Building,” which follows three true-crime-obsessed neighbors on their own murder investigation. No matter what streaming site you use, you will see new shows, documentaries and movies — fiction and nonfiction — that center around true crime. Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building’’ has an interesting take on the original understanding of what makes a true crime drama. “Only Murders in the Building” follows Mabel Mora, played by Gomez; Charles-Haden Savage, played by Martin; and Oliver Putnam, played by Short, on their journey to make a true-crime podcast based on a murder in their building. These three strangers live as neighbors in an Upper West Side New York City apartment building and share an obsession with truecrime podcasts, specifically one voiced by the great Tina Fey, called “All’s Not OK in Oklahoma.” While individually listening to

the podcast, the fire alarm goes off, which forces Mabel, Charles and Oliver out of their apartments to a restaurant across the street. This is where they realize they are all obsessed with the same podcast. Tim Kono, another resident of the apartment, was found dead during the fire. All three characters sneak into the building to see the crime scene and realize they had seen Tim just hours before his death. They become obsessed with learning who Tim was, why he died and who killed him. Oliver, a washed-up Broadway producer, is desperate for his next big hit. He decides to produce a true-crime podcast with Charles and Mabel called “Only Murders in the Building,” just like the ones they are obsessed with. At the beginning, this show seems to be just a normal whodunnit investigation drama, but the more you watch, you realize — just like in another hit Gomez show — everything is not what it seems. As you learn about the character’s pasts, the show leads to the question: Do they know more than what they are letting on? “Only Murders in the Building” ties in both mystery and comedy,

which is something that not a lot of other true crime shows do. They factor in the differences between the younger and older generations: Charles and Oliver have a hard time figuring out how to get in contact with Mabel — whether they should call or text, etc. They also include theatrical scenes where they are “auditioning” the murder suspects, which seems like it was imagined by Oliver. The show provides people with just the right amount of dry comedy, drama and suspense, along with some confusion that makes you want to watch more. For example, Charles seems to be haunted by life-sized Looney Tunes characters. When you first see them, you must ask what is happening, but slowly they start to unveil the story of why these characters are following him around through the episode. There are little things that happen in all the episodes that make you wonder why they included that. Although subtle, they are noticeable enough for you to wonder about it. You are given small amounts of information that create the perfect level of suspense to keep you on the edge of your seat, wanting more. Co-creator John Hoffman is an actor, producer and screenwriter,

best known for writing and acting in the Disney Channel original movie “Northern Lights.” Hoffman urged viewers to pay attention to the opening credits. “An Easter egg is dropped, basically,” Hoffman said in one interview with E! Online. “A slight thing to pick up and find in each episode’s opening credits that points to a little mystery within that episode or within the mystery at large.” While the clues aren’t entirely noticeable if you go in without

trying to see them, they make for an engaging experience with the story. The show isn’t only a whodunnit that you can watch but one you can investigate without the characters. Putting clues in the opening credits gives the show just the right push to make it more interesting. As of right now, there are only six episodes on Hulu, but have no fear: New episodes release every Tuesday to make a 10-episode series. Once you start, it is hard to turn off.

CULTURE AND COMMUNITY

Observing Jewish holidays locally By Hailee Stegall @haileenstegall

Rosh Hashanah (Sept. 6-8)

The Jewish High Holiday period spans some of the month of September and is considered the holiest time in the Jewish calendar. Fort Collins has two local synagogues with less strict religious observance: Congregation Har Shalom, which is nondenominational, and Temple Or Hadash, which follows Reform Jewish liturgy. Additionally, there’s Chabad of Northern Colorado, which is considered a more Orthodox-leaning synagogue and separates seating by gender. Despite these technicalities, all synagogues are typically open to Jewish people of any observance level, along with those wanting to learn about the religion or culture. Colorado State University also has a Hillel Center, which is student-run and offers a space to meet other Jewish students. Chabad is located at 1121 W. Prospect Road Suite 140, just at the intersection of Prospect Road and Shields Street. Both liberal-leaning synagogues moved services online this holiday season, but Hillel offers in-person events at 720 W. Laurel St., across the street from Parmelee and Corbett halls. Since the Jewish calendar is lunisolar, days start at sunset rather than sunrise. For example, Rosh Hashanah officially began on the evening of Sept. 6, despite the holiday itself occurring on Sept. 7 and 8. CSU also has a Jewish sorority, Sigma Alpha Epsilon Pi, and a Jewish fraternity, Alpha Epsilon Pi.

Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year, commemorating the day God created man. It calls for one to two days off work, depending on tradition. It starts off the Ten Days of Repentance, during which those who practice prepare for Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. During the Ten Days of Repentance, people of the Jewish faith turn over a new leaf by apologizing to those they’ve wronged, healing relationships with others, praying and donating to charity. Eating apples and honey is a tradition during the holiday, symbolizing bringing in a sweet new year. During Rosh Hashanah, CSU Housing & Dining Services offers sliced apples and honey in every dining hall to accommodate this tradition.

Yom Kippur (Sept. 15-16)

Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, is the holiest day of the year in the Jewish faith. It’s a solemn holiday, so refrain from wishing someone a “happy” one. It’s spent repenting for one’s sins, fasting and refraining from daily activities such as bathing, using electricity, having sex or working or doing schoolwork for roughly 25 hours. At the culmination of Yom Kippur, it is believed that God seals each individual’s fate for the rest of the year ahead. CSU Hillel’s Yom Kippur services begin on Wednesday, Sept. 15 at 7 p.m. for Kol Nidre, and on Thursday, Sept. 16 at 9 a.m., the center offers in-person viewing of streamed holiday services.

Chabad offers services the night Yom Kippur begins, starting at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday. They also offer a variety of services the day of Yom Kippur, beginning at 9:30 a.m. and continuing until the sundown meal, when Jewish people can break the fast.

Sukkot (Sept. 20-27)

Although not a High Holiday, Sukkot commemorates the yearly fall harvest as well as the story of the Jewish people’s escape from slavery in Egypt. The word sukkot means booths or huts in Hebrew and refers to the huts that are built during this holiday in remembrance of the 40-year wandering period in the desert. The first day is taken off of school and work. Chabad of Northern Colorado typically offers celebration opportunities in The Plaza for Sukkot along with services, which they post about on Instagram. Additionally, Hillel posts their plans as the holiday comes closer on their Facebook and Instagram pages. Due to COVID-19 concerns, Hillel International, the parent organization of CSU Hillel, offers online celebrations for these holidays on YouTube. Plenty of in-person celebrations are being offered through CSU Hillel, and while some of the events are still being planned, you can find more information and dates on CSU Hillel’s Facebook page. Chabad of Northern Colorado also offers events, and information can be found on their Instagram page. Hailee Stegall can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

VIRGO (AUG. 23 - SEP. 22) Cherish yourself this week, Virgo. Generosity is a good thing, but remember to take care of yourself in the process of taking care of others so you’re not burning yourself out. LIBRA (SEP. 23 - OCT. 22) Libra, you’re feeling clearminded this week. Use this newfound motivation to get your to-do list knocked out so you can take it easy when you need to.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22 - DEC. 21) Sagittarius, find it in yourself to let the world work around you instead of the other way around. Having a hand in everything will only stress you out, so just go with the flow. CAPRICORN (DEC. 22 - JAN. 19) This week, don’t try to control what doesn’t affect you, Capricorn. Focus on the opportunities in life that directly feed into your success and block everything else out.

PISCES (FEB. 19 - MAR. 20) Don’t let the haters get you down this week, Pisces. You’re feeling better than ever and living your best life, so pay the naysayers no mind.

Remember to give those you love a call in times of need because they just want to help you out. TAURUS (APR. 20 - MAY 20) This week might be rocky, Taurus. When you find yourself struggling to keep a grip on your surroundings, let yourself take a break and ground yourself before pressing on. GEMINI (MAY 21 - JUNE 20) Gemini, agree to disagree this week. Not everyone is going to see things from your point of view, and that’s okay — don’t burn your bridges over something that can be compromised. CANCER (JUNE 21 - JULY 22) You’re in your element this week, Cancer. Move through your daily activities with poise and composure, knowing your worth and using your thoughtfulness to your advantage. LEO (JULY 23 - AUG. 22) Leo, don’t force yourself to be a people person this week. Take some time for yourself to let your heart rest and potentially recover; no one’s going to fault you for it.
