Tensions flare between students after Sanders rally By Haley Candelario @H_Canderlario98

Several students of color were told to “go back to Africa” following Sen. Bernie Sanders’ appearance at Colorado State University Wednesday evening. Over 1,800 people attended the “Get Out the Vote” rally in the Lory Student Center, which featured Sanders, Sen. Michael Bennett, Democratic nominee

for Colorado governor Jared Polis and Democratic nominee for 2nd Congressional District Joe Neguse as special guests. The political candidates encouraged the crowd – many of them college-aged – to vote in the midterm elections Nov. 6. “Our message to Trump is a very profound message,” Sanders said. “This is a great nation not because we have a $700 billion military budget. We are a great nation not because we

have more millionaires and billionaires than any other country. We are a great nation because we have led the world in the fight to understand that we are a common humanity.” Following the rally, a group of students approached undeclared freshman Alexandra Owen, who wore a “Make America Great Again” hat and shirt. “I thought it was very brave of her because if you were at a Trump rally wearing a Bernie

shirt or a Bernie hat, you would have been kicked out or escorted,” said Rodica Ninguin, a junior studying political science and ethnic studies. “And she came all the way here. No one did anything to her.” Ninguin and Diamond Nicholson, a sophomore human development and family studies major, said they went up to Owen with other students with the intention of having a non-confrontational discus-

sion about why she attended the rally wearing a shirt and hat in support of President Donald Trump. “We weren’t trying to riot, we weren’t trying to fight,” Nicholson said. “I honestly wanted to talk, like, what are you here for? In no disrespectful way, like, what are you here for?”

CITY

Petitioners aiming to get City Council full-time pay By Samantha Ye @samxye4

They may have clipboards and perkiness, but these political volunteers aren’t here to register you to vote. Making their way around campus in recent weeks are petitioners for a ballot initiative which would raise City Council salaries from roughly $10,000 a year to $57,000. Council members would have the option of receiving a salary more proportional to their workload, supporters say. This would make running for Council a viable option for a greater diversity of people. “Most people can’t work full-time without getting a full-time paycheck,” said Sarah Hafen, a petitioner who was gathering signatures on the Plaza. One of those people is Fred Kirsch, leader for the charter amendment initiative and director of the local sustainability advocate group Community for Sustainable Energy. Kirsch is running for the District 6 council seat next

April to replace the term-limited Mayor Pro Tem Gerry Horak. Kirsch said he wants to serve primarily to address pressing sustainability issues and problems such as U+2 more effectively. But, he cannot work the Council job full-time on the current salary. Right now, the City charter sets the monthly pay at $815 for council members and $1,224 for the mayor, adjusted each year for inflation. They are reimbursed for work-related expenses including business travel and individual phone data plans, according to the Council Resource Guide. The proposed initiative Kirsch and supporters are petitioning for would raise all members’ annual salary to match the area median income defined by the U.S. Census ($57,000 in 2017) plus benefits. The budget then is $330,000 a year, not including the cost of providing benefits. Members can decline the raise if they want. To be added to the April ballot, the initiative needs 6,058 valid signatures from people registered to vote in Fort Collins by Nov. 6, according to Rita

Knoll, chief deputy City clerk. Kirsch said they have been petitioning for nearly the last three months and are on track to reach the recommended 9,000 signature goal.

“We have a Council that’s skewed toward older retired folks, and this is something that could help make it more inclusive based on age and based on income.” FRED KIRSCH DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY FOR SUSTAINABLE ENERGY

The hope is a better pay will make a more representative Council. While Kirsch said his personal campaign is separate from the initiative (and he would serve on Council with a second job under current pay), he sees the pay as a barrier for others. City Council decides the City budget plan and sets

certain policy directions and project approvals. Current members estimate working on City business 25 to 40 hours a week by choice, over 30 hours on average. Most of that is reading policy reports, attending almost nightly meetings and events and interacting with constituents. Members agreed Council needs more diversity, be it age, income, gender or ethnicity. Right now, Martinez is the only person of color and Stephens is the only woman on Council. Stephens and member Ross Cunniff said the main plus for the measure is if it can break down a barrier for individuals of different backgrounds to run. “(Council) feels like a fulltime job but doesn’t pay like a full-time job (which) makes people feel like, ‘Gosh I have to have two jobs and how would I balance that?’” Stephens said. “So I think it appeals to people who are already retired or have an extremely flexible job or are independently wealthy and don’t need to have a job or whatever scenario that it’s hard for just regular people to know how to fit that in.”

Members can still hold outside jobs if they wish under the new initiative. The amendment language requires all members to publicly report their council-related activities, probably in the form of an online public calendar, Kirsch said. This is so voters can decide if they are satisfied with the amount of work their fully paid council member is putting in. Current members expressed uncertainty of how expectations for full-time work might change Council’s relation to staff. Unlike Denver’s full-time, Mayor-Council-led government, Fort Collins is one of many smaller cities where the bulk of day-to-day operations are done by staff and overseen by the City manager, council members said. That takes pressure off of Council, allowing members to hold more flexible community roles rather than administrative ones. “I think (the measure) will truly change the dynamics of Council, it will change who

Rally >> from page 1 Students said the conversation with Owen was civil in the beginning, until she allegedly told the students to “go back to Africa,” prompting a response from the students engaged in the conversation. “You can’t tell us you support us, and tell us to go back to Africa,” one student said.

Owen declined to comment on the incident in an email to The Collegian. “I’m not even mad, I’m hurt because this is 2018,” Nicholson said. “You have proof of enslavement, you have proof of genocide, you have proof of (the) Holocaust ... and yet still you want to sit here and vote

for a man like Trump. It doesn’t make sense to me at all. And it hurts because it’s like, what more do Black people have to do? What more do Black people have to take? You need to vote, period.” Ninguin and Nicholson said they felt Owen attended the rally wearing her Trump memorabilia because she wanted to get a response from people, but the students said they left the incident encouraged to make a change. “She may think she might have won something, or she accomplished something and she stood for something, but what she doesn’t know is that she woke up a hundred of us,” Nicholson said. “A hundred of us are even more mad than before. A hundred of us are even more eager to vote than we were before. A hundred of us are more aware of what this world — of what this campus — is really like, and so she may have (thought) that she won something, but really she (doesn’t) know that she just woke up a beast.” Ninguin said she did not expect the evening to end the way it did, but she and Nicholson echoed the same sentiments of the Sanders rally. “Go vote because your voice matters,” Ninguin said. “You may think it doesn’t, but it does.” Haley Candelario can be reached at editor@collegian. com.

ASCSU Senate approves aprons for Interfaith Thanksgiving By Stuart Smith @stuartsmithnews

From Thanksgiving aprons to educational beekeeping, the Associated Students of Colorado State University kept busy during their four-and-a-half hour session Wednesday night. Interfaith Thanksgiving requests funds to purchase aprons for event ASCSU Women’s Caucus Chair Merall Sherif introduced a bill to the Senate to allocate $306 to CSU’s Multi-Faith and Belief Council’s Interfaith Thanksgiving Planning Committee in order to purchase 24 aprons for the dinner. Interfaith Thanksgiving is an annual Thanksgiving dinner where people of CSU and Fort Collins can “celebrate the American tradition to come and bring together different faith groups,” Sherif said. Due to the timeliness of the event, which will be held Nov. 7, the Senate expedited the bill and then passed it, in a vote of 33-1-2.

The aprons would be reused year after year in the interest of sustainability, Sherif said. “This year we also started the conversation during their planning sessions of ‘how do we start to invest in this event for the future?’” Sherif said. “This event is growing. Every year we purchase supplies that are not sustainable, that are not friendly to the environment, and we’re creating a lot of waste during the event… this would be something we can use for the life of the event.” Apiculture Club requests funding for new educational beehive Associated Students of Colorado State University Director of Campus Engagement Sam Braun and CSU Apiculture Club President Freddie Haberecht introduced a bill to the Senate Wednesday night that would fund a new campus beehive for educational purposes. If passed, the bill would move $5,146.98 from the Senate discretionary fund to Facilities Management to build the hive. “This new location would

allow us to have a larger, more open, more conducive to learning space for our club members to learn about beekeeping,” Haberect said. The location for the beehive has already been chosen, as Facilities Management has already secured land with CSU’s horticulture department for $1,000 per month. The plot would be south of campus, near the intersection of West Prospect Road and Center Avenue. “This is a pretty big deal because it’s a research plot they’re letting us use because they believe that it is going to be a benefit for students,” Haberecht said. The eventual aim of the hive would be to fund future expenses of CSU’s Apiculture club by the sale of products from the hive like honey and wax. “We’ve been talking through different parties at CSU of people interested in honey,” Haberecht said. “Possibly dining centers purchasing honey, the Lory Student Center has talked about being interested in

using honey… and then also the Ramskeller, there is some context there of maybe selling honey to them to brew beer.” According to the bill, this is intended to ensure the longevity of the club and allow it to

become a permanent leaning fixture on campus. “Everybody’s buzzing about the Bee Bill,” said Blake Alfred, ASCSU director of marketing. Stuart Smith can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Conservative talk show host Dennis Prager to speak at CSU By Stuart Smith @stuartsmithnews

Nationally-syndicated conservative talk show host Dennis Prager will speak at Colorado State University Monday, Oct. 29 in the Lory Student Center Grand Ballroom. The event, titled “Dennis Prager: Why America Needs Traditional Values to Flourish,” was funded in part by the Board for Student Organization Funding of CSU’s student government, the Associated Students of CSU. BSOF funded $13,999 towards the event.

EVENT INFORMATION ■ When

7:30 p.m. – 10:30 p.m. October 29, 2018. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. ■ Where The Lory Student Center Grand Ballroom ■ No bags larger than a wristlet, signs or posters will be allowed inside the venue. ■ Tickets are available for free online at the “Dennis Prager at Colorado State University” Facebook page. The total cost to bring Prager to campus was $15,000, said Isabel Brown, president of CSU’s chapter of Turning Point USA. TPUSA is the student organization hosting the event. Several students spoke to the ASCSU Senate a month ago to voice their concerns about the use of student fees to bring Prager to campus, an action they considered to be dangerous to “queer, Muslim and female students” after Neo-Nazis visited campus during Charlie Kirk’s visit to CSU last February. The ASCSU Senate was not

consulted on these student fees being used, as the $13,999 TPUSA requested was one dollar below the $14,000 threshold needed for Senate approval. During the ASCSU session on Wednesday, Brown told the Senate that TPUSA wants those who don’t agree to speak at the event. “Per Turning Point USA policy, if you have a dissenting question or you disagree with the speaker, you can move to the front of the line for Q&A so

you’re guaranteed to ask him pretty much any question that you want,” Brown said. Brown encouraged students, whether they agree or not, to attend the event with Prager to attend the event. “Public discourse is the cornerstone of our nation, and exposure to different ideas is a vital aspect of a university setting,” Brown said.

Explosive devices sent to Obama, Clinton, CNN By Noah Bierman, Del Quentin Wilber & Richard Winton Los Angeles Times

Packages containing makeshift pipe bombs and addressed to high-profile political targets, including President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, set off a wave of panic Wednesday as the FBI and Secret Service intercepted the devices before they could be delivered. Similar packages were mailed to former CIA chief John Brennan, former Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. and Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif. On Monday, an explosive device was found at the suburban New York home of George Soros, the billionaire supporter of liberal causes. Soros’ home in Katonah, N.Y., is a short drive from the home that President Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton own in Chappaqua. Law enforcement officials said authorities suspect at least five of the devices – and possibly all of them – were made and sent by the same person or persons. The officials described an aggressive “full court press” to identify and capture whomever is responsible. “It appears that an individual or individuals sent out multiple similar packages,” said John Miller, the New York Police Department’s deputy commissioner of intelligence and counterterrorism. President Donald Trump pledged the “full weight” of the federal government to bring “those responsible for these despicable acts to justice.” During an East Room event about the opioid addiction crisis, Trump said, “We’re extremely angry, upset, unhappy about what we witnessed this morning, and we will get to the bottom of it.” Fearing additional packages were sent, authorities quickly stepped up screening of other potential targets across the country. The motive was not immediately clear. The list of targets suggested a political intent, but the sender may also be trying to create that impression or be motivated by a personal grudge or other unknown reasons. Obama, Clinton, Brennan, Holder and Waters have been the subject of frequent attacks by Trump and other conservatives. Trump has criticized Obama’s foreign policy and economic programs, and he has led “lock her up” chants at political rallies about Clinton, the former first lady and secretary of State whom Trump defeated in the 2016 presidential race. Trump revoked Brennan’s security clearance in August, in

what many considered an act of retaliation over Brennan’s frequent public criticisms of Trump. As Obama’s attorney general, Holder long aggravated conservatives and later was hired by the California state Legislature to represent its interests against the Trump administration. Trump has repeatedly derided Waters – who refused to attend his inauguration and quickly called for his impeachment – as “low IQ.”

“It is a troubling time, isn’t it? And it’s a time of deep divisions, and we have to do everything we can to bring our country together. We also have to elect candidates who will try to do the same.” HILARY CLINTON FORMER SECRETARY OF STATE

The package to Brennan was sent in care of CNN’s New York office. CNN anchors, speaking live from cellphones outside their bureau at the Time Warner Center, described the evacuation of the Midtown Manhattan landmark that disrupted traffic and drew the NYPD’s bomb squad. Brennan does not work for CNN; he is a contributor to NBC and MSNBC. The package to Holder ended up at the offices of Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Democrat. Law enforcement officials said at least five of the packages had Wasserman Schultz’s name – misspelled as “Shultz” – in the return address. When the package to Holder could not be delivered, it was sent to the congresswoman’s Florida office, a law enforcement official said. Most of the packages were mailed in manila envelopes with bubble wrap interiors. They were affixed with computer-printed address labels and six standard U.S. Postal Service “forever” stamps, officials said. The packages to Soros and the CNN office were not postmarked, suggesting they were hand-delivered. The FBI is trying to track down the courier firm CNN says delivered the Brennan package to the cable network’s offices. Meanwhile, members of a Joint Terrorism Task Force in New York are checking video from dozens of cameras located near where packages were delivered. One law enforcement official

Explosives >> from page 7 bombs made of lightweight material. They were sent for analysis at the FBI laboratory in Quantico, Va. NYPD Commissioner James O’Neill said that the Brennan package sent to the CNN mailroom “appeared to be a live explosive device” and that an unknown white substance was also found. CNN tweeted a picture of the package, showing Wasserman Schultz’s name on the return address and Brennan as the addressee. Both of their names, as well as the word “Florida,” were misspelled. Wasserman Schultz was chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee until she was forced to resign in 2016 over complaints that she was favoring Hillary Clinton over her Democratic primary rival, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont. On Wednesday, Clinton spoke about the packages during a campaign appearance in Florida, expressing her gratitude to the Secret Service for intercepting the device and her fear about a difficult and dangerous moment for the country. “It is a troubling time, isn’t it?” she said. “And it’s a time of deep divisions, and we have to do everything we can to bring our country together. We also have to elect candidates who will try to do the same.” New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, speaking at a news conference with law enforcement officials and New York Mayor Bill de Blasio, initially said his office had also received a suspicious package. But that turned out to be a false alarm, as did reports of a package sent to a San Diego building. The New York officials said law enforcement planned to increase its visibility at other potential targets, including media offices, but said they had no more specific, credible threats in New York. “This is a political year. It’s a political season. We are weeks from an election, and that’s obviously in the air and that’s an obvious factor,” Cuomo said. “What we saw here today was an effort to terrorize,” de Blasio said. Republican Sen. Charles E. Grassley, R-Iowa, also condemned the attack. “Political violence is never acceptable especially in a free & democratic country,” he tweeted. “I hope this terrorist is caught & punished to full extent of the law.” While Trump called for unity and bipartisanship, critics said he bore responsibility for creating a climate of violence against political opponents and members of the media, noting that only last week at a rally Trump praised a Republican

lawmaker for body-slamming a reporter. “Trump has stoked a cold civil war in this country,” Steve Schmidt, a former Republican political consultant who has become a leading voice among conservative critics of the president, wrote on Twitter. “His rallies brim with menace and he has labeled journalists as enemies of the people. That someone would seek to kill their political enemies is not aberrational but rather the inevitable consequence of Trump’s incitement.” Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., called on Trump to soften his rhetoric. “If he would take a more civil tone, it would help,” Flake told CNN. The Secret Service said the packages addressed to Obama in Washington and Clinton in Westchester County, N.Y., were identified late Tuesday and early Wednesday, respectively, by Secret Service personnel “during routine mail screening procedures.” “Both packages were intercepted prior to being delivered to their intended location,” according to the statement from Mason Brayman, assistant special agent in charge with the United States Secret Service. “The protectees did not receive the packages nor were they at risk of receiving them.” On Capitol Hill, officials warned lawmakers’ offices against accepting packages or any mail that is not processed through official sorting facilities, and to be careful about personal mail sent to their homes. After the discovery of the Waters package, a congressional sorting facility was temporarily evacuated. Content pulled from Tribune News Service.

Friday’s parking regulations put football before academics Katie Lindberg @quantumCatnip

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. Parking woes are as familiar to Colorado State University as green and gold. The CSU community struggles more every semester to find parking as new buildings replace lots left and right. Game day regulations make things even worse, and this Friday’s restrictions represent a new level of disregard for student learning. Like many at CSU, senior chemistry student Dakota Lorenz lives far enough off campus that driving is his most viable mode of transportation. On Friday, his studies will be interrupted by the University putting ease of access to football, an event with mostly entertainment-based value, above access to academic and parking facilities. “My plan for Friday is to

use my lunch break to re-park my car in some nearby neighborhood, even though a lot of nearby neighborhoods have their own parking restrictions now,” Lorenz said. While it’s worse for commuters, no one on campus is immune to game day hassles. A few lots are reserved for campus residents, but they still have to move their cars. Everyone else must remove their vehicles from campus parking well before games begin, even if they paid for an expensive permit. According to official University Guiding Principles, “CSU is a community dedicated to higher learning in which all members share in pursuit of knowledge, development of students, and protection of essential conditions conducive for learning.” CSU is failing to adhere to their own principles. These disruptions are a clear prioritization of football over conditions essential to learning. “The most obnoxious part about not being able to park on campus this Friday is the University’s complete disre-

gard for informing students,” Lorenz said. “Luckily, my supervisor was informed by CSU, but not every student knows. I’d guess that most students do not know.”

“It is very disappointing that football has a higher priority than my math class, and this is coming from a football fan. The university seems to value the football team much more than my education” DAKOTA LORENZO SENIOR CHEMISTRY STUDENT

Specific information about parking this Friday is scarcer than it should be. There’s general information about game day parking on CSU’s Parking & Transportation Services website, but several links offering more information lead to 404 error pages. Finding the game day parking SOURCE article posted two weeks ago was a challenge,

SERIOUSLY

Tony Frank on Border War, “Very fine people on both sides.” By Rory Plunkett @jericho.wav

Editor’s note: This is a satire piece from The Collegian’s opinion section. Real names may be used in fictitious/semi-fictitious ways. Those who do not read editor’s notes are subject to being offended. In a recent interview about the upcoming Border War game for Colorado State University’s football team, current President Tony Frank said there were, “Very fine people on both sides.” CSU will play against Wyoming on Oct. 26 at 8 p.m. for the first Border War football game on CSU’s campus in 50 years. Since this will be CSU’s President, Tony Frank’s last Border War football game he shared his thoughts about it for the CSU community. One of the first things Tony Frank had said is that he had thought there was already a wall in between Colorado and Wyoming. “I’ve never known why the Border War is so important, there are already huge walls at every border of every state, that’s what those lines on the map mean. That’s why I fly everywhere. So, what’s the big

fuss?” Frank said. Comments like these have sparked some response from prideful CSU students who don’t want the rivalry to be dumbed down. One undeclared freshman, CSU student Jim Finch, said, “Our President needs to understand the history of CSU’s rivalry against Wyoming. I don’t think he should be sympathizing with the enemies!” Some students called out for the President to expel students who are native to the state of Wyoming. The rationale for this supposedly being that since these students are not from Colorado, then they should not have access to Colorado’s higher education. Sophomore philosophy major, Aaron Race said, “It’s not fair for these Wyoming-ers to come over to our land and take advantage of our university.” Tony Frank wanted to assure his students that he is all for good team spirit, but he does not necessarily advocate for any violence over this rivalry. “CSU students should set the precedent for what good sportsmanship means. Humility is a very

good trait to have. Look at me as an example, I think I am actually humble. I think I’m much more humble than you would understand.” Frank said. He went on to speak more about the history of the CSU and Wyoming rivalry. “The history of CSU and Wyoming has always been very clear to me. I would of course say that CSU has gotten the better of Wyoming. I think the only difference between us and the other team is that we’re more honest and our cheerleaders are more beautiful!” Frank said. The anticipated turn out for the upcoming Border War game has risen by the thousands since Tony Frank’s statements. It appears the President’s statements incited the rivalry even more than it already was. As usual Fort Collins Police is calling in the riot squad to help maintain the anticipated acts of violence at the tailgate of the game. Tony Frank will be in attendance and live tweeting from his phone at: @CSUTonyFrank. Rory Plunkett can be reached letters@collegian.com.

as it failed to appear in a search for “parking” on their website or “CSU game day parking” on Google. The CSU Rams official site links to a helpful re-park map for students, but it’s near the bottom of a page otherwise loaded with more prominent information aimed at fans planning to attend the game. As a professional researcher, I had to dig to get this information, and it’s definitely not visible enough for the general community. “I park my car around 9 a.m. every Friday, and I do not get back to my car until after 4 p.m. so I would have violated the parking policy.” Lorenz said. “A student attending class should not have to worry about being ticketed or towed when they park in a lot that they paid to park in.” Even if information had been disseminated flawlessly, students should not have to worry about parking on a Friday when they rightfully ought to be focusing on their studies. Saturday games have been frustrating enough, bringing rec center closures and cancellations of on-campus

extracurricular activities. “It is very disappointing that football has a higher priority than my math class, and this is coming from a football fan. The University seems to value the football team more than my education,” Lorenz said. Because his supervisor also has to be off campus early, his Friday afternoon research meeting was cancelled, too. Football itself is not a bad thing, and there’s nothing wrong with being a proud Ram. Sporting events are great opportunities for community and camaraderie. Likewise, the loss of a parking lot for a new building isn’t automatically a negative thing. At times, our fast-growing community must endure growing pains for the sake of future students. Disruptions to classes and other academic pursuits, however, are not pains that reasonably ought to be endured. CSU has a responsibility to adhere to their own principles and re-evaluate their approach to game day parking, this time remembering why students are here: to learn.

Keep the Proud Boys out of CSU Kenia Ortiz @Kenia_Ortiz_

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. The Proud Boys are a violence driven, privileged and hate driven group of men who visited Colorado State University in order to protest Bernie Sanders speaking at CSU. According to New York Public Radio, Proud Boys have a history of charging and physically assaulting protesters. They are also known for appearing alongside hate groups at the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, according to Southern Poverty Law Center. There is no place for hateful, racist and misogynistic groups at CSU. Jason Kessler, who is a former Proud Boys member, organized the Charlottesville event which brought Klansmen, Southern racists and anti-semites together. This rally led to two state troopers’ deaths and a man drove his car through a crowd of protesters, killing one person and injuring 19 others. CSU students will not stand for hatred, racism, sexism, homophobia and anti-Muslim views. CSU will not stand for

nooses being hung to target a black resident assistant. CSU will no longer stand for anti-Jewish messages around campus. CSU is not a place of hate. President Tony Frank has sent out multiple emails stating that the CSU community will not accept these acts of hate any longer. As a woman of color, I should not be afraid to make a five minute walk from the Lory Student Center to my dormitory because a group of hateful white supremacists are on campus. No one can tell me that I have no right to be afraid of a group of men who hate and stand against everything I am. There is true fear as a woman and a person of color knowing that there are individuals who not only hate me, but will also act on their hate. I should not have to text my friends and call them telling them to text me when they get home. There is no need that I should be sending a group message to my residents letting them know that a white supremacist group is on campus. They should not have to worry about their safety. It is a nightmare worrying about the well-being of my friends and loved ones, knowing they will be targeted due to the color of their skin, their gender and their religion. It is infuriating knowing that the majority of the CSU com-

munity does not and will never understand this fear since we are a predominately white campus and many hold privileged identities. Many students and staff can empathize by feeling angry, but fear and anger are not the same. It is one thing to empathize and be a support for targeted communities, but the experience of a marginalized individual can never be reached with empathy. CSU already has to deal with having Dennis Prager visiting our campus Oct. 29, who endorses Donald Trump. Prager has shared his views on how people of color use the “race card,” in specific the “Black card,” and use it for personal gain, completely dismissing the oppression against people of color. Prager also holds homophobic views that same-sex marriage leads to polygamy and incest. I am disappointed and angry in knowing that these individuals were on our campus and am even more infuriated that there are people at CSU who share their views. Do not dare dismiss my fear and anger or label it as dramatic because you do not understand it. It is a fear that is going to follow me and other marginalized identities for the rest of our lives. If you cannot say the same then don’t say anything at all. Kenia Ortiz can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

VOLLEYBALL

Rams’ volleyball set to re-establish dominance very soon Mack Beaulieu @Mack_Covers

The Colorado State volleyball team has faced an unusual amount of adversity this season, not yet out of danger, the coming week will give the Rams a huge chance to re-establish themselves as the class of the Mountain West. Having matched their loss total from last season by the 12th match of this season, along with losing two of their first four conference matches, the Rams’ season has come with a little more intrigue than most in their recent history of dominance. In the next week, the Rams will face the two conference foes that have beat them so far this season, in a sort of round-robin slate for the Mountain West lead.

“Really, it’s everything. (Fresno State and Wyoming) are the two teams that we’re kind of clumped with at the top of the Mountain West. Whoever comes out of this little cluster with two wins is going to be in the driver’s seat.” While the match-up against Fresno State is clearly very important in the standings, the next match will be a little more personal and could very well shake out to be another firstplace battle in a high stakes Border War showdown. “We definitely didn’t like that feeling (of the losses) at all,” junior middle blocker Kirstie Hillyer said. “We’ve been working a lot on how to avoid those losses, but I think it’s given us a lot more determination to come back and fight for what we want and that’s the conference championship.” The Rams have reeled off five-straight wins since losing to the University of Wyoming in their first meeting of the season in Laramie after they fell to Fresno State University the game before. This weekend, the Rams will take on the firstplace Bulldogs and then host the third-place Cowgirls in this year’s edition of the Border War. The Rams’ winning streak has come along with two Player of the Week awards as the Rams are making use of their talented middle blockers on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball.

“(Fresno State and Wyoming) both beat us by serving us tough and being able to defend, in particular, our middle attacks,” Coach Tom Hilbert said, “We were much more dimensional because we weren’t handling the ball… In neither one of those matches did we really disrupt the other team very much and we’re getting a little bit better at that; we’re blocking it better, serving a little bit better too.” If they are able to get a win against SDSU, who’s .500 in the Mountain West but 7-16 overall, the Rams will play in a matchup

with the Bulldogs for first place in the conference. Really, it’s everything. (Fresno State and Wyoming) are the two teams that we’re kind of clumped with at the top of the Mountain West. Whoever comes out of this little cluster with two wins is going to be in the driver’s seat. Whether it will be an outright lead will also depend on the Bulldogs’ outcome with the Cowgirls on Thursday; which kicks off a week-long stretch that will feature all three of the Mountain West’s top teams playing each other. It represents

a chance for the Rams to avenge their only losses of the conference season. After rising out of the last few downtrodden seasons, the Bulldogs have been a force over the first half of Mountain West play; challenging the Rams as the conference’s top dog. “We’re just looking to excel in every part of the game,” junior Breanna Runnels said. “ Especially against Fresno State because they’re playing really well and have obviously had control over the season so we kind of want to take that control away from them.”

There are a lot of ifs in the week-long scenario that is about to play out in the Mountain West, but what is almost certain is that it will play a huge role in determining the Mountain West’s champion this season. “Really, it’s everything,” Hilbert said. “(Fresno State and Wyoming) are the two teams that we’re kind of clumped with at the top of the Mountain West. Whoever comes out of this little cluster with two wins is going to be in the driver’s seat.” Mack Beaulieu can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

Bobo starting Hill indicates more than an attempt to ‘spark’ CSU Eddie Herz @Eddie_Herz

Colorado State Coach Mike Bobo justified his decision to start redshirt sophomore quarterback Collin Hill for the Border War on Friday with the claim that his team needs a “spark”. Bobo’s choice in doing so surfaces an underlying objective. Although the coach would be wise to not make this rationale public. I can see that the fourthyear head coach has confidence in his quarterback. Its not as if I think Bobo is trying to deter the focus of fans off of his true motivation. However, even though he will not admit it, there is a significant chance that part of the reason Bobo has decided to go with Hill is to begin preparation for the future. The hope is to brighten the Rams’ 2019 outlook in the midst of a seemingly lost season. Sure, Hill went out and looked fantastic in the fourth quarter against Boise State University. The South Carolina native went 12-14 through the air for 135 yards and a touchdown. On paper, the performance was nearly flawless. However, Hill’s outing needs to be taken with a grain of salt. Beating the Broncos was completely out of the picture, and had been for arguably more than a full quarter when Hill came in for graduate transfer K.J. Carta-Samuels. BSU had a number of backups on the field when Hill entered the game. Hill’s effort was encouraging. But, when one incorporates the specific circumstance into the equation, the performance should appropriately be discredited to an extent. A valid counterargument to this claim would appear if Hill exhibited he was capable of playing efficiently when an outcome was not already decided. Hill has struggled this season within his small sample of playing in meaningful circumstances. The only instance of the redshirt sophomore playing a decent amount of snaps in a crucial situation was when CSU faced Illinois State University at home Sept. 22. Hill subbed in for Carta-Samuels with the Rams trailing the Redbirds 7-6 in the second quarter. The quarterback went 0-3 through the air before getting taken out

again. Hill came into the game again in the fourth quarter, at which point CSU was trailing 21-13 and attempting to avoid an upset. With Hill facing real pressure, he was unable to manufacture more than one first down for his team on a pivotal fourth-quarter drive. The Rams punted the ball away as Hill completed 9-17 passes in the game and also threw an interception. Bobo wants to beat the University of Wyoming. The head coach has a poor reputation in rivalry games, but winning on Friday will not alter Bobo’s rivalry status substantially. The Cowboys are 2-6 and are undeniably the worst Cowboys squad Bobo has ever faced, making the game less impactful than past matchups. Bowl chances are bleak as well, even with a win. There is a level of motivation for next season here. Hill is Bobo’s quarterback of the future and the head coach would love for Hill to be confident when the 2019 season arrives.

But, if Bobo is going to begin developing his 2019 team, he might as well go all in and completely shift his focus to the future. As much as Bobo wants Hill to provide a ‘spark’, starting the quarterback also likely indicates the head coach’s motives of constructing his team for the next season”. The important thing to realize is if Bobo decides to take that route, which he should, his team will still be able to compete close to the level they are right now. The situation creates a win-win. Bobo will not have to take heat for giving up on the season because his team will essentially still have the same chance at winning its final four games as it currently does. Bobo choosing to do this, for example, would include giving sophomore running back Marcus McElroy more reps. The sophomore has made the most of his limited reps, exemplifying that he will be an asset moving forward. The running back is av-

eraging 4.4 yards per carry, equal to senior running back Izzy Matthews. Yet, Matthews has touched the ball 534 times while McElroy has earned only 214 carries.

“As much as Bobo wants Hill to provide a ‘spark’, starting the quarterback also likely indicates the head coach’s motives of constructing his team for the next season.” Senior wide receiver Olabisi Johnson has been great this season and will deservingly be remembered as one of the best, most reliable receivers in program history. Adjusting play-calling towards sophomores Warren Jackson and Cameron Butler would also make sense. Bobo has said himself that Jackson has the “chance to be one of the all-time best receiv-

ers ever to play here”. If the head coach believes that, it only seems right to fully incorporate him before he even needs to be the best receiver on the team. Yes, CSU possesses a tremendously talented receiving core. Still, it just does not make sense that Jackson has 23 receptions compared to 99 combined between Johnson and redshirt junior Preston Williams. When the sophomore has played this season, he has averaged 3.8 receptions per game. Johnson has averaged a full reception more per game, and Williams has averaged 7.6 grabs per game. As much as Bobo wants Hill to provide a “spark”, starting the quarterback also likely indicates the head coach’s motives of constructing his team for next season. If that truly is the case, he might as well begin to do so in every manner possible. Eddie Herz can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

Nuggets stay undefeated as LeBron James, Lakers await By Mike Singer The Denver Post

The Sacramento Kings could’ve been a pitfall, an easy team to overlook with the confidence of Sunday’s win over Golden State still lingering. They also could’ve been a hazard considering the bright lights of Los Angeles that await the Denver Nuggets on Thursday evening. But the Nuggets didn’t fall victim to any trap game on Tuesday night. They steamrolled the Kings, 126-112, as their offense came alive, shooting 51 percent as eight guys finished in double-figures. At 4-0, it’s the Nuggets’ best start since the 2009-10 season. Until Tuesday, their offense had largely remained out of sync. Paul Millsap and Jamal Murray had struggled, and Will Barton’s injury and subsequent absence didn’t help the starters gel. That changed against the Kings. Millsap got going (15 points) as did

Murray (19), who had been battling nagging ankle injuries as well as a leg contusion suffered against the Warriors on Sunday night. He was spry and aggressive in the second half following a first-half marred by foul trouble. Gary Harris, now averaging 21 per game, is playing with supreme confidence and showing off crossover pivots that have left numerous defenders helpless. Take Our Poll “We put the ball in his hands a lot and he’s worked a lot on his handle, to play pick and roll, to play dribble hand off, and to be able to break his man down one on one,” Nuggets coach Mike Malone said. “Gary’s a true pro, works his butt off and he comes back a better player every year.” While Western Conference player of the week Nikola Jokic is typically the Nuggets player who gets most overlooked on a national scale, Harris may have a case to make.

“Maybe, I mean we always think he is (underrated),” Malone said. “ I think he has the respect of his peers in the NBA. They know what Gary is all about, and when they have to compete against him, they know what they’re in for that night. We’re gonna get the respect only when we win and win at a high level, and that’s the way it works. You have to earn it. We’re looking forward to doing that.”

“Gary’s a true pro, works his butt off and he comes back a better player every year.” MIKE MALONE NUGGETS COACH

LeBron awaits. The Nuggets will take their undefeated record on the road and face LeBron James and the Lakers Thursday for the

third time in four weeks, counting two preseason wins. “I was looking for places in LA we’ve been there so much,” Harris joked. “We’re worrying about ourselves, each and every game. We don’t care who we’re playing. If we go out there, we do the things we’re supposed to do, I like our chances.” The Lakers, who have yet to win a game, are in Phoenix Wednesday night. When they meet the Nuggets on Thursday, they’ll be without Brandon Ingram and Rajon Rondo, both suspended for their roles in Saturday’s fight against Houston. “Everybody likes the bright lights, so we’re looking forward to it,” backup forward Mason Plumlee said. “Kind of crazy that the preseason was on national TV, so I guess that prepared us.” Murray’s GOAT? Consider Murray one Nugget who’s extremely excited to face James. “I love going up against LeBron,” he said. “I wish I could go up against him more often. He’s just

smart, he’s a team player. He’s the greatest player in this time right now. ... MJ’s my pick for greatest ever. He’s a superhero. But no, LeBron is close. Depends on who you like, him or Kobe (Bryant).” “For me, it goes MJ, Kobe, LeBron. For me. Kobe’s basically Mike. Same kinda thing, same kinda mentality. LeBron’s a separate, like his own player. In terms of his physique, his uniqueness of what he brings to the table.” Despite Murray’s appreciation for James, the Nuggets, who may well compete with the Lakers for a postseason spot, aren’t conceding anything. “We always like to go out there and make a statement, and we don’t want to lose our first game,” Murray said. “We don’t want to lose. We’re undefeated right now, it’s a good feeling. We know they’re going to be aggressive, probably most likely, especially with me.” Content pulled from Tribune News Service.

SPORTS FOR DUMMIES

What’s the deal with statistics in sports? Ashley Potts @ashleypotts09

We all know sports fans can be a little crazy, but the craziest thing about them is how much they like math. I know what you’re thinking, I might not like sports, but I definitely don’t like math. So what’s the deal? I can’t claim to know all that much about statistics, I don’t fully understand RBI’s, FF’s, GDP’s or many of the other alphabet soup acronyms that sports people throw around. In fact I had to ask our sports editor to tell me that some of those things even existed. I do vaguely understand a few statistics, like shots on goal and save percentages. But the thing I do know is that stats can make boring things seem more interesting. I know, math and interesting seem contradictory, but trust me.

“Statistics can reveal the talent of athletes on a level you can’t always see.” Statistics can reveal the talent of athletes on a level you can’t always see. You can see that a baseball player throws a fast pitch or that a hockey player has a hard slap shot. But when you know that those things are moving at 95 miles per hour, suddenly you understand just how strong that player is. You can see a goalie make good saves, but when you get the count of how many shots were flying towards

them through the course of a game, you can start to understand how hard that player is working. Numbers are also a big thing in races. Sometimes it’s impossible to tell which runner or swimmer is in the lead, but the clock will always tell you, and sometimes they are seconds apart. There are so many things that teams keep track of during any given game. Every move a player makes is recorded. Every shot they take, every pass, every time they score and all the little moments in between. Players train hard all year to improve their performances in these areas and make themselves desirable on an individual level. Reading through pages and pages of game notes and trying to sift through numbers can seem really boring, but the bits of information can be very interesting. It gives a kind of factual baseline to things. Maybe you like math, but aren’t sure about sports: stats could be your entry point. Or maybe you don’t understand why someone likes one athlete more than another, but their stats show they are clearly superior. A lot of sports can be emotional. You root for the team you grew up with, you get caught up in the intensity of a close game, etc. But some people just genuinely don’t connect with sports on that peak. So maybe stats can your interest, or strengthen your reasoning to love an unpopular player. Regardless of how you connect with stats, don’t let the math part of it scare you away.

Nikola Jokic on Nuggets’ NBA-best defense: ‘Look at us now’ By Mike Singer The Denver Post

As usual, Nikola Jokic saw what others couldn’t see just yet. It was Jokic who said recently that the Denver Nuggets could have the best defense in the NBA. It was easy to be skeptical following a season where the Nuggets had the 23rd ranked defensive rating in the league. “You all laugh, but look at us now,” Jokic said ahead of Tuesday’s game against Sacramento. The Nuggets (3-0) have

found a different formula to win early this season. Rather than raining 3-pointers and burning the nets dry on offense, they’ve actually made good on Jokic’s proclamation. Entering Tuesday night’s play, the Nuggets’ defensive rating (92.9 points allowed per 100 possessions) was the best in the league and was significantly better than Boston’s (97.3), and that includes Sunday’s thrilling win over Golden State. Conversely, they’re averaging fewer 3-pointers made than any team in the league. “We won the games by defense, it’s kind of different,” Jo-

kic said. It’s different, and it’s also early. Juan Hernangomez’s game-saving block ensured the Nuggets wouldn’t go into overtime against the Warriors, and exceptional defensive efforts held Phoenix at bay from the 3-point line (11 of 39) and kept the Los Angeles Clippers under 40 percent from the field in the season opener. “It’s a little different, but you know, defense is definitely something that’s been lacking for us (in the past), so that’s good,” Gary Harris said. “We’re not really worried about our of-

fense right now, we know that’s going to come around.” Harris said that there’s been a total buy-in from the team and that there’s a selfless component to defending. “We’re trusting each other 1 through 17, not necessarily worrying about our man but just worrying about our team concept,” he said. Torrey Craig, who filled in seamlessly for injured starting small forward Will Barton, knows that his defensive presence is the key to getting more minutes. “Just trying to provide a spark in a different way,” Craig

said. “More like energy, trying to get the guys going, trying to get the crowd into it, just doing effort plays and defending. And just trying to slow down the other team’s best player.” Barton had successful surgery Tuesday morning to repair hip and core muscle injuries suffered in Saturday’s win over Phoenix, and he’ll be re-evaluated in six weeks. In the meantime, the Nuggets can continue working to build their newfound identity. Content pulled from Tribune News Service.

VOLLEYBALL

Volleyball sets their sights on extending their season-high win streak By Luke Zahlmann @lukezahlmann

A pair of matchups on the weekend awaits Colorado State volleyball, a duo that will play a role in their postseason fate. Going into the final month of the season, the Rams sit at 16-6, with an 8-2 mark in the Mountain West placing them second in the standings. Fresno State University sits atop the board, with an identical mark overall, but an 8-1 mark in conference, separating the two by half a game. A five-match win streak is at stake for the Rams. This streak began at the offset of their first multiple-game losing streak in conference play in over a decade. The Rams will face off San Diego State University Thursday, with the aforementioned FSU making their way to Moby Arena Oct. 27. The latter will serve as a Breast Cancer Awareness game, with the Rams adorned in pink.

“We have been focusing a lot on blocking this season, and the work is finally starting to pay off.” PAULINA HOUGAARD-JENSEN JUNIOR STUDENT

In their opening contest, the Rams will once again face the Aztecs, this time at home. In their first matchup of the year, the Rams won in four sets, led by 17 kills from redshirt sophomore Breana Runnels. The underclassmen-laden Aztecs have struggled this year, stumbling to a 7-16 record overall. Despite their struggles, bright spots have emerged. Led by a trio of hitters over 200 kills, the attack of the Aztecs is one of distribution. Leading the facilitating of the unit in the two teams’ first matchup was sophomore Gabi Peoples who was taking over for junior Taylor Delaney in the game. Though still second on the team in assists, Peoples has once again begun to take over for the setting position of the Aztecs. A pivotal point in the Rams’ season comes in the form of the Bulldogs two days later. Both jockeying for the lead in the MW, the two teams’ upcoming matchup has large playoff implications. The team is not letting them overshadow their other opponents though. “(The) Fresno game will have an added importance because they are first in the Mountain West,” Katie Oleksak

said. “But the other games this week are equally as important to our success.” In the last matchup between the two in which the Rams lost, the visitors struggled mightily with service errors, piling up 11 in the match. Serve receive was also a large issue for the Rams. “We missed a lot of serves and we got better at that during the course of the match,” Coach Tom Hilbert said after the match. “We never serve-receive(d) very well. We became very predictable.” In the last iteration of their match, the Rams will bring an

improved blocking force to the floor. Just last week, redshirt junior Kirstie Hillyer won MW Defensive Player of the Year as the Rams held their two opponents both under a .160 percentage at the net. Alongside Hillyer is junior Paulina Hougaard-Jensen. Both middle blockers sit atop the team in total blocks, with Hillyer at 90, Hougaard-Jensen at a team-leading 95. “I feel like I have more control over my blocking this year,” Hougaard-Jensen said. “If the coaches tell me to correct something I’m able to fix it and

show almost immediate changes. We have been focusing a lot on blocking this season, and the work is finally starting to pay off.” During their five-game winning streak, the Rams have dropped a single set, sweeping four of their five opponents. The team also got back their libero in junior Amanda Young who was out for most of the opening portion of the schedule due to illness and a shoulder injury. Her return gives the Rams another defensive piece alongside fill-in libero, junior Olivia

Nicholson. The lineup will continue to flux, with Nicholson seeing time at libero, despite the return of their starter at the year’s onset. “Amanda is a crucial part of our defense and serve-receive, so having her back, even if she is in a different role, (she) has been a key to our success,” Oleksak said. The Rams will begin their weekend homestand Thursday at 7 p.m. in Moby. Luke Zahlmann can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

MOVIES

‘The Hate U Give’ brings insight to police brutality of youth of color By Isabelle Rayburn @IsabelleRayburn

Police brutality is something that affects people of color on a daily basis, especially black youth. The movie “The Hate U Give” brought light to this situation by focusing on a young woman of color who experiences this brutality first hand. Angie Thomas wrote “The Hate U Give” in 2017. The novel won several awards including the Coretta Scott King book award as well as the Goodreads Choice Awards for Best Young Adult Fiction in 2017 after spending almost a year on the New York Times Bestseller list. “The Hate U Give” comes from the meaning of “Thug Life,” a phrase made popular by ‘90s rapper Tupac. The late rapper made this saying to show how the system is against people of color. Thomas, who was inspired after watching a Youtube video of Tupac discussing what ‘Thug Life’ actually meant, decided that her book was meant to reflect the way in which unarmed black men and women are treated. Police brutality has been an issue for a while in America, and this movie was a voice for Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Tamir Rice and all the other many people of color that have been killed

by police while being unarmed just because they are seen as a threat. The main character is Starr, played by Amandla Stenberg. She grew up with her dad who taught her how to deal with the police when being black, such as keeping your hands on the dashboard at all times and not making any sudden movements. When Starr grew up, her parents put her in a predominately white high school so she could have a better chance of getting into college. This leads to her constantly fighting with her identity around the students because she doesn’t want anyone to see her as ‘ghetto.’

NOW PLAYING ■ ‘The Hate U Give’ is now

playing at Fort Collins Cinemark theaters.

Starr ‘code switches’ from school and home just so the students at her school cannot call her a ghetto black girl. Code-switching is when someone alternates between languages or in more basic terms between colloquialisms. This allows Starr to connect with both sides of her life. When Starr witnesses her friend get killed by a police officer after a hairbrush was mistook for a weapon, her whole life changed. The police officer wasn’t arrested, and was only sent away on a paid leave and then went free with no consequences. This incident brought out Starr’s activism and the passion she had to fight for her commu-

nity. She was taught her whole life to stand up for what she believed in and never hold back. Starr starts by challenging racism at her school. She realizes the way that the other students talk around her and treat her is because she is black. Throughout the movie, Starr speaks to the media about race. These scenes showed how the media can portray a victim as a bad person in order to justify their death and ask questions that incriminate the victim even after death. If incidents like this happened to people that were not people of color, then the outcome of the media might be different. This movie is all too similar to what people of color go through on a daily basis. As a person of color myself, I have experienced a large amount of the incidents that have happened in this movie. I have seen people die and I have witnessed my friends get treated differently because they are people of color. People don’t realize what really happens in African American communities because they only see what they want to see or what the media allows them to see. Young people living in these communities continue to try and fight and get pushed down every time because of injustice. No matter how much we protest or how loud we speak, there is still no progress with police brutality in the black community. Something needs to change and the impact of this movie is the start.

Holocaust survivor keeps story of historical tragedy alive By Elena Waldman @waldmanelena

Social concepts can often mimic cancer. When cancer first affects the body, it is often inconspicuous — it may come in the form of a subtle mark or nonthreatening blemish. Irving Roth, one of the last remaining Holocaust survivors from Czechoslovakia, describes the horrific events occurring from 1933 to 1945 as cancerous. Roth came to Colorado State University Oct. 11 on behalf of his Holocaust awareness organization Adopt a Survivor to share his story with students as part of his mission to keep the memory of the 6 million Jews who died during the Holocaust alive.

“I feel in my soul and heart, since America is a country of immigrants, in a sense we have a responsibility to take people like the Statue of Liberty says: Give me your hungry, Your poor, Your wretched masses.” IRVING ROTH HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR

“[I’m here] as an eyewitness to the most horrific part of human history,” Roth said. “It is painful, but it’s important to remember the story. It’s one thing to understand history, but if you understand what happens to an individual, that’s another piece of understanding.” His organization, Adopt a Survivor, works to connect students across the country with the last living generation of Holocaust victims so the next generation can carry on their narratives. Roth created the organization 20 years ago to ensure his message would spread and an atrocity of this caliber

would never happen again. “As Elie Wiesel said, ‘When you speak to a survivor, you become a witness’” Roth said. “In order to keep the events that led to the Holocaust and the Holocaust itself understood, my feeling was that somehow I needed to be able to speak with a person and they need to speak with me and absorb not just the words, but me.” According to Roth’s wife, Myrna Kushman, each student who participates in the Adopt a Survivor foundation must sign a contract representing their dedication to Holocaust awareness. In the program, students are each assigned a survivor who they can meet and ask questions. 2045 will be the 100-year anniversary of the end of the Holocaust, and each student involved must retell the story of their survivor. Irving Roth was 10 years old when Nazi Germany invaded Czechoslovakia in the spring of 1939. Within the next couple of years, he would experience virulent prosecution that led up to the commencement of millions of Jews being arrested and sent to concentration camps. Roth said, as a child, he knew little of what was going on besides being isolated from the community he grew up in. “I was 10 years old. Did I understand the geopolitics of the world? No. But I knew what was happening to me,” Roth said. “I had a friend, she was a pretty girl. I had been friends with her for many years. I would carry her books you know, the usual stuff. Along comes 1939 and 1940, and one day she says she will not speak with me anymore because I am evil. Because I am a Jew.” Along with being demonized by people who he had once considered friends, Roth had his rights stripped from him. As Nazi Germany exerted more global control, everything he once knew had changed. He was not able to go to the park or public school. He could not wear a sheepskin jacket be-

cause Jews were not allowed to have luxuries. He had to adorn all of his clothing with a Jewish star to indicate his difference from others. When the Jewish people were liberated from the death camps, Roth returned to what had once been his home with both of his parents. Roth said that out of the nearly 2,000 Jewish people that once lived in his hometown, only about 100 returned. Still, him and his family faced discrimination and harassment. “When we came back from the various methods of survival, camps and hiding and all that... There was no welcome wagon or red carpet,” Roth said. “We weren’t welcome. In my town, almost a third of the city was Jewish. The only Jews there today are in the cemetery.” Because there was no safe place for Jewish people in Europe, Roth and his family moved to the United States in 1947. Roth said at the time, anti-semitism in America was slowly declining because many Jewish people in America had fought alongside non-Jewish people in the war. Roth and his family settled in New York, where he was able to find a substantial Jewish community which gave him a sense of belonging and pride, something he had been stripped of for so many years.

“I was very fortunate,” Roth said. “By 1947, the approach to Jews in America was different– it was changing. There was an opening, a breaking down of barriers, slowly. The most carefree time in my life was going to high school in the United States. I started high school at age 18 and was able to integrate

88-year-old Holocaust survivor Irving Roth poses for a portrait. “I hope that people understand that ordinary people become murderers by the demonization of others,” Roth said. “It happened once and unfortunately it can happen again. We need to watch for the sign posts along the road to Auschwitz. Compare what is happening today at any given time. If there are any similar behaviors at any given time stop them. Stop it early and quickly.” PHOTO BY SARA GRAYDON COLLEGIAN

into American society, mostly Jewish American society.” Roth said that aside from global anti-semitism that still exists, neo-nazi sentiments are very much present in America. With the current administration’s immigration policies and the formation of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement being compared to certain policies that created Nazi Germany, Roth said it is a particularly scary time for many marginalized people. “The basis of the [neo nazi] ideology is that people are not equal, and therefore those who are not as equal as we are, we can persecute them,” Roth said. “I feel in my soul and heart, since America is a country of immigrants, in a sense we have

a responsibility to take people like the Statue of Liberty says: Give me your hungry, your poor, your wretched masses.” Roth said being active and speaking up about intolerance is vital, because if it is to enter the mainstream, it will lead to much darker futures that reflect his own past. “I compare it to cancer,” Roth said. “When you see a pimple, you go to the doctor, he looks at it, he takes a biopsy and [gets rid] of it. You’ll be fine. If you don’t pay attention and let it grow, it takes over the whole body and you’re dead.” Elena Waldman can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

NATIONAL

‘Silencio’ speaks loudest with family elements By Rick Bentley Tribune News Service

Writer/director Lorena Villarreal’s (“Las lloronas”) lasted film, “Silencio,” is a story built around the Zone of Silence in Mexico, a place where reportedly strange things happen constantly. A team of scientists investigating a missile crash discover an unusual stone that gives the holder the power to travel through time to save a life. It is a power so great that a mother (Melina Matthews) and her small son are put in danger by those who want the stone. The film, slated to open in select theaters Oct. 26, has all the trappings of a sci-fi tale: unusual activity; time travel; good and bad scientists; and the power over life and death. Looking at the movie in that context lessens the entertainment value. The best way to approach “Silencio” is as a family drama. It starts with John Noble who plays James, the scientist/ grandfather who uses the stone to save his granddaughter. He’s

also the first to discover that the universe has a way of staying in balance and for every life that’s saved using the stone, another is lost. It’s at that point, he hides the stone in a place where even he can’t find it. This doesn’t stop James from being threatened by someone who wants the stone. The stakes get higher when a family member is kidnapped. Noble continues to show the ability to ground even the most outlandish plot ideas as he did so well in the television series “Fringe.” He’s not the kind of actor who feels compelled to give the audience a wink and a nod to show he doesn’t believe the fantasy elements he’s playing, but instead gives the production a gravitas it needs. He’s playing the truth of what it means to be a caring grandfather and the rest is just set dressings. The biggest complaint with Noble’s work is a mistake made by Villarreal. Besides a change in his hair color, there is a large time element in this story that never feels right because No-

ble’s character looks to be the same age despite passing decades. It would have been a smarter move to have a younger actor play James at the start of the film.

‘SILENCIO’ ■ 2 stars ■ Cast

John Noble, Melina Matthews, Rupert Graves ■ Director Lorena Villarreal ■ Rated R, contains some violence ■ Running Time 98 minutes Melina Matthews (“Fugitiva”) handles the role of mother and granddaughter with equal ease. She’s strong when needed, yet shows great vulnerability with just as much skill. Again, the problem with her performance doesn’t come from her acting but the script by Vil-

larreal. It is not easy to take a normal person and turn them into a violent vigilante without losing grasp of the reality of the character. The grasp never fails but becomes dangerously slippery. Distracting them from their work is the pesky sci-fi element that keeps popping up in the movie. The filmmakers present the movie as having more depth because it is inspired by true events, but opting for seeing it on a pure fictional level is a far better choice. Films that are based on true events get judged differently than those that are pure fiction. “Dunkirk” got high marks for production values but lost points because of how much of the history had to be manipulated for dramatic affect. Along comes “Silencio,” a film that states at the beginning it is based on a true story. The only problem is the film can’t be weighed the same way because there is no historical basis. Legend has it that the Zone of Silence is a place of strange happenings but there’s no real

proof to support the claims. It’s a mythology given life as a way to lure more tourist traffic. The only thing that is historically correct is that an American test rocket did go off course and crash in the Zone of Silence. After that, the fictional elements kick in for good. It’s best to focus on the relationships between the characters played by Noble, Matthews and Rupert Graves. They might be wading through a fake mythology and pure elements of science fiction but they treat the story with a reverence that makes the human elements work. “Silencio” comes up short when measured as a whole. Particularly because of the attempt to build the film on some type of reality base. And, Villarreal makes some novice mistakes from casting to writing. But, there are enough individual strong family elements, particularly the work of Noble and Matthews, to make “Silencio” entertaining. Content pulled from Tribune News Service.

Homemade cheesy fries for tot lovers By Audrey Weiss @audkward

I’m a huge fan of potatoes, so much so that I’m going as a sack of them for Halloween. I special ordered some burlap sacks off Amazon and everything! If none of that is proof enough that I take my tots seriously, this recipe should do the trick. What’s for dinner: homemade cheesy fries.

frying them twice. But my potatoes aren’t fried to the point of a heart attack waiting to happen. To get a similar effect, start by bringing three quarts of salted water to a boil. 2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. 3. Slice your potatoes into fry-sized strips. When the water is boiling, drop in the potatoes. Cook for 10 minutes, and then scoop them onto a paper towel to dry. 4. Drizzle some oil directly onto a sheet pan. Throw the potato slices on top, and add salt, pepper and cajun seasoning of your choice (Slap Ya Mama or Tony Cachere’s are both good choices). 5. Toss the potatoes slices in the spice and oil mixture until all pieces are evenly coated. Place in the oven for 30 minutes, or until the fries are tender when punctured by a fork. 6. If the fries aren’t quite as brown and beautiful as you’d like, turn on the broiler for 3-5 minutes until they reach the desired color and consistency. 7. Throw your cheese right on top of the pan, or put your fries in a bowl and cover with cheese. The cheese pulls will be divine. Enjoy! Audrey Weiss can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.
