Eleven cases of hand, foot and mouth disease have been reported in the CSU student body since the start of the semester, wrote Anne Hudgens executive director of the CSU Health Network. The first case on campus was reported on Aug. 27, and the most recent was reported to the health network Sept. 18. The disease can be contracted through interaction
with any infected persons, according to the CSU Health Network. This includes close personal contact, coughing or sneezing, contact with feces, and contact with contaminated objects or surfaces. “The best protection is similar to the precautions you should take against the flu or other viruses,” Hudgens said. “Wash your hands often, don’t share toothbrushes, straws or other similar items with others, and clean up your space with a good disinfectant.”
The campus has taken steps to prevent the spread of the disease, including throughly cleaning “touch points,” such as door handles, Hudgens said. “Touch points” are any location encountered by potentially infected students. Additionally, Environmental Health Services were notified of the need for the residence halls to be cleaned extremely well, Hudgens said. The disease is known for causing painful sores on the hands, feet, mouth, face or other
areas of the body, according to the CSU Health Network. When the mouth is infected it can make it difficult to talk, eat or drink, and could result in dehydration. The sores on the hands and feet can make tasks such as writing, walking and typing painful for those infected. The University has worked with infected students and their professors to assure that they receive proper accommodations, such as not attending class, Hudgens said. If the disease worsens, there
could be neurological and heart problems, but these cases are extremely rare, according to the CSU Health Network. Early signs of the disease include fever, reduced appetite, sore throat and a feeling of being unwell, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. A few days after the fever, painful sores can develop in the mouth, most frequently in the back of the mouth as small red spots that blister. see INFECTED on page 4 >>

Republican presidential hopeful, Donald J. Trump will host a rally in Loveland, Colorado on Monday, Oct. 3 at 6 p.m. The rally is scheduled to occur at the Budweiser Event Center, 15 miles south of campus. Doors will open at 3 p.m. Tickets are on a first come first serve basis with registration on Donald Trump’s website. Only two tickets will be registered per mobile number. According to the latest election polls from the New York Times, Trump is polling lower than his opponent, Hillary Clinton. With six weeks until the general election, Clinton is polling three points higher than him, 45 percent to 42 percent. Colorado is a crucial swing state in the general election, and the purple state has tended to vote Democratic, but its nine electoral votes are up for grabs this November. Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, visited Fort Collins’ charter school Liberty Common last Thursday. Trump also hosted a fundraising event in Aspen, Colorado in late August. Hillary Clinton’s last visit to Colorado was in early August and no major players from her campaign have visited Colorado since, according to the Associated Press. To get to the rally, the Flex regional bus for northern Colorado runs from various Fort Collins locations including the CSU Transit Center and Downtown Transit Center to 8th Street in Loveland. The Flex is free for students with a valid student ID. Erin Krigger can be reached at news@collegian. com.

Colorado amendment could triple state’s cigarette tax
By George Booth @gbooth63
This November, Colorado citizens will vote on the Colorado Tobacco Tax Increase, also known as Amendment 72, which has been designed to triple taxes on cigarette packets. The current tax rate on cigarettes is 84 cents per packet, but the amendment would increase the tax to $1.75 per pack of 20. The amendment, one of nine for the state of Colorado, would more than triple the state’s current tax on cigarettes and tobacco products. Percentages of the tax revenue generated will be allocated to the funding of medical research and prevention programs, to help better inform youth about the health implications associated with smoking. Tobacco-related diseases are the leading cause of preventable deaths in Colorado and in the nation, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Tobacco consumption is responsible for one of every five deaths in the U.S. each year, according to the CDC. This is more
than 480,000 deaths annually, including deaths from secondhand smoke. Amendment 72 proposes a significant increase in cigarette tax, which is expected to reduce tobacco usage. Economics professor David Mushinski said cigarette taxes, however much they may increase, do not have much of an impact on consumption for longterm smokers. Likewise, political science professor John Straayer said the tax increase will not have a “huge and immediate” effect on tobacco usage. Straayer said although the amendment may have a “marginal” effect in discouraging tobacco consumption, long-term active smokers will most likely be unaffected by the tax increase. “(The tax increase) is a contributing factor to a reduction of tobacco usage ... however, is that going to be huge or immediate? … I don’t think so,” he said. The tobacco tax increase is intended to target young people. Mushinski said the amendment will have its greatest impact on younger people, includ-
ing students, because they are typically new, less-experienced smokers. If smoking continues in the U.S. at its current rate, it is estimated about one in every 13 Americans aged 17 years and younger in the current population will die prematurely from a smoking-induced disease, according to the CDC. “If the purpose of the amendment is to reduce smoking, then it will have its greatest impact on young people, and so its impact will be more likely to be seen here on campus than in the general population,” Mushinski said. Smoking on and around campus continues to be a long-standing issue of concern for CSU. In January, the University expanded its smoke-free zones around campus in its push to promote CSU’s “green campus” image. Fort Collins has also implemented new smoking restriction laws. The laws were passed in February of last year and prohibit smoking in any Fort Collins restaurants or bars, as well as in Old Town Square.
The bans also restrict smoking within 20 feet of outdoor dining areas and public passages in the Fort Collins area. The University has tried to deter students from tobacco consumption through the use of educational campaigns and support resources to help students quit smoking. Students on campus displayed divided opinions about the proposed increase for tax prices on cigarettes. Non-smoking students said they would likely vote in favor of the tax increase on tobacco as they are the ones unaffected by the proposal. Those in favor of the amendment said there is potential to deter students from smoking due to the significant tax price increase. Veterinary medicine and biomedical sciences freshman Raven McGann said college students would be less inclined to pay the higher tax prices, particularly at prices almost three times more than the current tobacco tax rate in the state. Some students said that they support the amendment be-
cause of the effect of secondhand smoke. Health and exercise science freshman Mary Ellendorff said campus will be more environmentally friendly if students stopped smoking. “(Less students smoking) will decrease the amount of secondhand smoke so the overall health benefits of each and every student on campus will be a lot better,” she said. Other students said they are opposed to the methods used to reduce tobacco consumption. Rangeland ecology senior Sean Uhle said many students who are active smokers are “ignorant” of tobacco consumption, and increased taxation may not act as an effective deterrent to smoking. Uhle said there should be more educational programs available to help inform both students and other young people of the risks of tobacco usage. On the other hand, students who are active smokers said higher tax prices would necessarily not discourage them from smoking. Instead, smokers >> see CIGARETTE on page 4 >>

Concealed carry permits near 14,000 in Larimer county By Hailey Deaver @autumn_hail
Nearly 14,000 people are registered to have concealed carry weapons in Larimer County, and since the beginning of 2016, about 2,000 more permits have been issued, according to the Larimer County Sheriff ’s Office. “Of these totals, last year, we denied 19 applicants and suspended or revoked 22 current permit holders,” wrote Larimer County Sheriff Justin Smith on his public Facebook page. “In other words, less than two tenths of one percent of permit holders had their permit suspended or revoked during the year.” In 1999, there were 527 permit holders compared to the nearly 14,000 in 2016. However, the population has also increased since 1999. There were 246,884 living in Larimer County in 1999, compared to 315,988 in 2013, according to the United States Census Bureau. But, the percentage of concealed carry permit holders has increased since 1999. From 1999 to 2013, the percentage of people who had a concealed carry permit in the county increased from 0.2 percent to 3.2 percent. At CSU, concealed carry weapons are permitted on campus with a few exceptions. The weapon must be concealed, the person must have the permit on hand, and weapons are not allowed in dining halls, residence
halls or health network facilities. Michael Horanburg and Jerry Kraus from the National Rifle Association hosted a presentation at a College Republicans event on Tuesday. About 35 people were in attendance. Horanburg spoke about the purpose of the NRA and what their goals are with gun safety and control. They encouraged all the people in attendance to get involved with the NRA and help keep the Second Amendment in place. Some students said they feel safer knowing that other students have concealed carry weapons on campus. “(The idea that students have concealed carry permits on campus) makes me happy because it comforts me knowing that there (are) law abiding citizens that have guns to protect themselves and other people,” said Declan Watts, a freshman fermentation sciences major. However, other students do not support allowing guns on campus. Maegan Garcia, a freshman theatre major, said that having weapons on campus makes her uncomfortable. “There are so many things that a taser could take care of,” Garcia said. “I don’t really like the idea of some random guy having a gun in his pocket in my classes.” The CSUPD does not issue permits and they do not provide any weapons training.

that can legally own a gun, pass a background check and take a handgun training course. Permit holders and gun carriers are also expected to not be a hazard to themselves or other people. To obtain a permit, an application must be submitted to the Larimer County Sheriff ’s Department. There is a total processing fee of $152.50. Applicants must provide proof of residency, documentation of training with a handgun, a fingerprint card and a photograph.
Permits are valid statewide and do not need to be transferred between counties. However, a change of address must be reported within 30 days to the original issuing agency.

We should have death row inmates fight like gladiators for freedom Micah Maffeo @micahmaffeo
You might be surprised to know that, in the United States, it costs tens of millions of dollars to house convicted felons in prison—and, on top of that, it costs tens of millions more to house prisoners on death row. As reported by Forbes, the state of California alone spent more than $1 billion between 1978 and 2011 on the incarceration of death penalty prisoners. Lifetime incarceration of such people costs California alone $11.5 million per person. According to Forbes, “State spending on corrections, including prisons, has nearly quadrupled over the past two decades; it is now the fastest-growing budget item after Medicaid.” Think of other
worthwhile things this fortune in taxpayer money could fund: education, roads, mental health services, public safety programs, etcetera. I have a solution. I wish I could claim originality for it, but many others have thought of it first. In fact, a good number of science-fiction and alternate-realty books and movies have put it forward, such as The Condemned, Running Man, Gamer, Tenth Victim, and Death Race. Even Suicide Squad counts, flirting with the idea of using the talents of criminals for another purpose. And, of course, we can also look at history for the grandest, real-life example on a very large scale: gladiator combat in the ancient Roman arenas. What am I talking about? Fighting to the death between condemned prisoners— for the entertainment of the public. Think about it. The largest building in the ancient world (next to the Egyptian pyramids)
was the Colosseum, which opened in Rome in A.D. 80 and was in operation until around A.D. 520. There were many arenas in the Empire, but this was the largest; it could seat at least 50,000 people, and had events on many days throughout the year. Tickets to the Colosseum were free to Roman citizens, though you had to sit in the sections marked for your class. In the mornings they had animal fights, and at noon they had public executions, generally throwing the prisoners to wild beasts. But, in the afternoons, they had the ever-popular gladiator fights. Life in Rome could be cruel, certainly. In general, life in the ancient world was very hard. Malnutrition, wild animals, war, crime and disease were everywhere. As Keith Hopkins wrote in his book “Death and Renewal: Sociological Studies in Roman History,” “the popularity of gladiatorial shows were part of this
culture of war, discipline, and death. Rome was a militaristic society. For centuries it had been devoted to war and mass participation of citizens in battle... public executions were a gruesome reminder to non-combatants, fellow citizens, or subjects, that vengeance would be exacted if they betrayed their country, rebelled, or were convicted of serious crimes.” According to Encyclopedia Romana, the public execution of those who committed various transgressions, including being convicted of heinous crimes, vividly demonstrated the consequences of those actions. Per the encyclopedia, “In a society that was deeply stratified, the usurpation of ‘undeserved rights’ could be rectified only by public degradation and death.” Having rejected civilized society, the criminal no longer could claim his or her protection. “In publicly witnessing such punishment, citizens were reassured
that the proper social order had been restored.” The gladiatorial games in the arena reaffirmed and reestablished the moral and political order of things: that civilization triumphed over the barbarian, over the enemy, and over the outlaw. Today, the blood lust of the Roman spectators, the brutality of the combat, and the callous deaths of men and animals disturb our sensibilities. Or do they? Some people have referred to the United States as “the New Rome,” for a number of reasons. One of those reasons might be that, in modern times, our society seems to like violence just fine. Witness the popularity of stadium or televised events such as boxing (for many years, my great-grandfather would never miss watching “Friday Night at the Fights” on black-and-white TV), roller-derby, ice hockey (you know, fighting where a see INMATES on page 6 >>

Coloradoans should vote yes on Amendment 72 Laurel Thompson @laurelanne1996
At this point in election season, it can be extremely tempting to give up and check out of the political scene. More and more people are getting fed up with the current state of the presidential race, whether out of fear, anger, or embarrassment—especially when it comes to the two major candidates representing our country. Yet given the inescapable nature of political propaganda in the media and on campus, I think redirecting our focus to issues on the Colorado state ballot is a better option than distancing ourselves from politics altogether. There are many pivotal amendment propositions on this year’s ballot, including proposals to increase the state’s minimum wage, establish a statewide health care system,
>> INMATES from page 5 game occasionally breaks out), rugby, mixed-martial arts, World Wrestling Federation events and, of course, football. American football. “Stuff the quarterback” football. So, back to my solution. Let’s have convicted prisoners on death row fight each other, publicly, to the death. Heck, in the spirit of capitalism and liberty, let’s have brave members of the public compete if they think they could make a career out of it. This would serve many good purposes: it would give well-deserved justice to evildoers, it would eliminate such criminals from incarceration, saving millions of dollars, and it would provide huge entertainment to the masses. It might also generate revenue with ticket sales. After all, why shouldn’t we be more
provide access to the Aid-In-Dying drug, and raise state taxes on tobacco products. While each of these propositions are extremely important and deserve to be addressed, I am choosing to advocate for Amendment 72 in this column.
To me, a non-smoker who has seen the health effects of nicotine dependency on others, this proposal seems like a no-brainer—especially in Colorado. According to the 2016 State Ballot Information Booklet, if passed this November, Amendment 72 would “increase the state tax on a pack of cigarettes from $0.84 to $2.59, increase the state tax on other tobacco
products from 40 percent to 62 percent of the price, and distribute the new tax money for medical research, tobacco-use prevention, doctors and clinics in rural or low-income areas, veterans’ services, and other health-related programs.” To me, a non-smoker who has seen the health effects of nicotine dependency on others, this proposal seems like a no-brainer—especially in Colorado. Last year, the United Health Foundation named Colorado the eighth healthiest state in the nation, as well as the least obese. Our state also ranks first in terms of physical activity and has the second-lowest number of residents with diabetes. In the past, the state has established policies that ban smoking in public areas and restrict cigarette advertising in an effort to promote public health, and I think increasing the cigarette tax should be the next step. Since the majority of Coloradans already lead healthy lifestyles that do not involve smoking, I think passing Amendment 72 would further
promote the ideal of healthy living and give those in the minority all the more reason to follow suit. Medical institutions like the Children’s Hospital of Colorado have recently voiced their support for Amendment 72, claiming that “every year, more than 5,000 Coloradans—most of whom started smoking as teenagers—die from tobacco-related illnesses. Increasing the tobacco tax is a proven way to fight this deadly problem and stop kids from starting to smoke in the first place.” And it makes sense; most smokers begin as young, rebellious adolescents who likely do not have adequate jobs to support a smoking habit—especially if it means spending upwards of ten dollars several times per week on cigarettes. When coupled with the task of persuading someone of age to purchase cigarettes for them, the increase in state tax on tobacco products makes smoking a difficult habit for teenagers to maintain. The Children’s Hospital of Colorado
also predicts that if it is passed, Amendment 72 will result in a 19.6 percent decrease in underage smoking and roughly 35,000 adolescents will be kept from smoking in adulthood. In terms of the tax revenue being reallocated to fund medical research and local health centers in low-income areas, Amendment 72 seems to propose one of the most pragmatic and straightforward solutions for minimizing cigarette use in Colorado. Not only will the extra $1.75 per pack deter non-smokers from picking up the habit and lead others to quit, but it will also directly benefit long-time smokers with serious health conditions by revamping their medical centers. In other words, Amendment 72 has the potential to positively impact nearly every demographic in Colorado with regard to preventing tobacco use—and to that, we should all vote yes.

advanced than the Romans and not give such entertainment away for free? All prisoners would have to be volunteers, of course, if we wish to be more civilized than the Romans and honor the 8th Amendment, which protects against cruel and unusual punishment. The motivation to sign up would be earning amenities and privileges for fighting well, with the exception of their freedom. Think of it. What if we could match up Charles Manson and Son-of-Sam? Jeffrey Dahmer and John Gacy? The arenas would be full. The television audience would be enormous. The Pay-Per-View revenue would be staggering. What are we waiting for?

Colorado State cross country looks to bounce back at Washington Invitational By Eddie Herz @Eddie_Herz
The Colorado State men’s and women’s cross country teams will have a change in scenery for their second meet of the 2016 season. Instead of going to Notre Dame for their second meet, like the Rams have in prior seasons, they will travel to Seattle to compete in the Washington Invitational on Oct. 1. In contrast to the Rams opening meet of the season, the number of teams competing in Seattle will be much more con-
densed. Head coach Art Siemers believes this will benefit his experienced group of athletes. “It will be nice because we are going to be able to have space to get into the race and establish our own game plan,” Siemers said. “It will be easier than Griak where there were hundreds and hundreds of athletes surrounding you at the very beginning.” Despite the number of teams competing not being large, the amount of talent is. Saturday’s meet will feature some elite programs: Oregon, Washington, Washington State and Harvard on the women’s side. Oregon is
nationally ranked in the top four in both men’s and women’s cross country this season. Washington has also seen a lot of recent success and has frequently competed in the NCAA national championships. “These teams are big time, but this will gave us a lot of confidence,” Siemers said. “Racing some of the best schools in the country in a smaller format will help us.” Another difference between the two meets that should benefit the Rams is the speed of the course. While the Rams opened see CROSS COUNTRY on page 14 >>
CSU soccer names goalkeeper one week into conference play By Colton Strickler @coltonstrickler
One week into Mountain West play, the Rams have found their goalkeeper. After getting the start in the Rams’ last three games, head coach Bill Hempen declared junior Paige Brandt the starting goalkeeper moving forward. “I don’t want the goalkeepers, because they’ve made mistakes and we’ve switched them out to think, ‘Oh my gosh every time I make a mistake I’m coming off,’” Hempen said. “So, we’ve decided that we’re going to go with Paige and if it becomes unbearable then we’ll change.” Moving forward might be tough for Colorado State (2-7-1, 0-2-0 MW), who have seen two one-goal leads vanish right before their eyes in the last three games. The Rams first weekend in conference play was not so kind, dropping a 3-1 contest to Utah State in a cold and rainy Logan, Utah and falling 2-1 at the hands of Boise State in overtime after leading the Broncos for 83 minutes. After a tough weekend, Hempen says his team is not feeling the effects of the gutting loss. “You just have to move on,” Hempen said. “There is nothing you can do about it now.” The Rams will have the chance to get back on track this weekend when they take on Nevada (4-5-0, 1-1-0 MW) and UNLV (8-3-0, 1-1-0 MW) at The
Lagoon. Despite dropping their first match in conference play on Friday, the Rebels of UNLV head into the weekend with the best overall record in the Mountain West. The Rams had five games decided by one point so far in 2016, meaning that they hung around nearly every team they’ve played. Closing games has been an issue for the Rams, and that is something that Hempen knows they have to work on. “The gamesmanship part of the game I think we can be better at,” Hempen said. “Just managing the situation and understanding that the other team wants to win too.” Both Nevada and UNLV will come into Fort Collins having split their first two Mountain West matches, and it is about time someone travels to play the Rams for a change. The Rams’ schedule has been a grinder up to this point
in the season. Having played six of their first nine games on the road, Hempen and his team are looking forward to the Rams’ two-week home stand. “That doesn’t happen too often in the conference, it’s usually home one weekend, away the next weekend,” Hempen said. “To have two in a row, there probably isn’t a program more in need of home games at this point than ours. We’re glad to be back at The Lagoon.” The Rams’ last win in the conference came over a year ago. Having reached the midpoint of their season, CSU will look to right the ship with nine games left to play. Colorado State’s first shot at doing so will be on Friday at 4 p.m. at The Lagoon against Nevada, only the second home game the Rams will have played in the month of September.

Beach volleyball helps CSU players hone skills for season By Michael Roley @michael_roley
Over the course of the past several Olympics, Kerri Walsh Jennings and Misty May-Treanor have caught the attention of the nation and helped introduce America to the wonders of beach volleyball. The duo combined to win three gold medals together in the 2004, 2008 and 2012 Olympics and are considered by some to be the greatest beach volleyball team of all time. Those two icons have undoubtedly become the faces of beach volleyball in North America, maybe the world, but it is not just exclusive to those two. Several Colorado State volleyball players have dabbled in the sand game, most notably all-conference middle blocker Alexandra Poletto. The Toronto native took home a gold medal with her partner at the 2012 Ontario Summer Games and competed at the U19 World Championships in 2014. The plan for her is to play in several beach tournaments this summer in various places in North and Central America while possibly trekking over to Europe to play there. Former two-time All-American Adrianna Culbert, who graduated from CSU last year after an illustrious career as a Ram, is currently attending grad school and began playing on the beach volleyball team at South Carolina. Both players find themselves in a little different spots in their beach careers. Poletto gained a vast amount of experience playing in Toronto, which contrary to popular American stereotypes, has a large beach front with a big community that gathers to play. For Poletto, her beach time during the summer is not a conflict of interest but rather an opportunity to better her game for the collegiate season, which has
always been the goal. But, somewhere down the road, she hopes to take the professional route in beach volleyball and make a run at the sport’s biggest stage for her home country. “Right now, it’s just to improve mainly,” Poletto said. “My focus is here playing for CSU and getting to the (NCAA) tournament and doing well in the tournament. After CSU, I’m hoping to go professional for Canada. The main goal would be the 2020 Olympics but who knows what’ll happen by then. It depends on how much experience I can get these next few summers. If it ends up happening, that would be great, but we’ll see.” And then Culbert, who was the MW player of the year last season and recorded eight career triple doubles in her time at CSU, including an ultra-rare quadruple-double last season against San Jose State, has had some exposure to playing doubles, but this is a fairly new undertaking. “I think it’ll be a totally different experience,” Culbert said. “Instead of trying to have communication with six other people, you just have to know your partner and their tendencies and how to work with them since they’ll be the only other person on the court.” “It’s a much more focused sport than indoor,” she added. “You can be playing with five other people on the court, and some of those people don’t touch the ball. In beach, you’re in every single play whether you want to be or not.” In indoor volleyball, everyone has an assigned position with specific duties that come with that position. But, to be successful on the beach, you have to be able to do it all. “You have to play all positions of the game,” Poletto said. “It’s not just ‘You’re a middle blocker.’ You have to block, pass, set and be able to hit. And, your hit is not just hitting the ball as hard as you can. You have to try

to get different shots in and see the court more and adapt to different situations.” With that being said, in an indoor setting there’s a squad of six players out on the floor. An errant pass can be saved by another teammate and there are less situations where a solo block is required. But, on the beach, it’s just two players needing to be proficient in all aspect of the game. This leaves them a little vulnerable at times, but that might be a good thing. “They’re exposed as competitors,” head coach Tom Hilbert said. “They have to do every part of the game, and if they don’t, they’re going to lose. And, that’s the best part of it to me.” For a lot of Americans who have viewed beach volleyball in the Olympics over the last few years, an image of Walsh Jennings and May-Treanor duking it out with an opponent, just the two of them on the court, is likely
prevalent in many minds. This may give off the impression that a doubles pair in beach is entirely on their own without any team backing, which is simply not the case at the NCAA level. On the team at South Carolina, Culbert is still very much a member of a team, which practices and travels together like CSU. The only difference is that the matches operate as an individual and team competition with the pairs competing to win for themselves with points being added to the overall team score. With this ringing true, there might not be a group celebration at the net after a point in indoor, but the desired team atmosphere is very much alive in NCAA beach volleyball too. “One of the best parts about indoor is getting to celebrate with five other people and just having that moment with so many other closely connected
girls,” Culbert said. “With beach, you do only have one partner, but there are so many girls on a team where you still get that team dynamic.” Playing volleyball in the sand versus indoors has its differences and is somewhat similar to playing basketball outdoors in the park compared to regular basketball. There is typically less structure in terms of running a system and executing set plays. The weather can get wacky. Poletto said she has practically played in snow before. But, it’s still volleyball, and the same fundamentals of the game still remain the same even if strategy differs. “The same things win,” Hilbert said. “That is the important part that players can learn if they play a lot of doubles. They’re done sometimes in a different way, but the same things win the game.” Michael Roley can be reached at sports@collegian.com.
CSU’s Cannon named Mountain West Golfer of the Month By Austin White @ajwrules44
Senior Blake Cannon has been named the Mountain West Golfer of the Month by the league after his sensational start to the season. September has easily been the best month of Cannon’s career after it started with a tie for 10th at the Gene Miranda Falcon Invitational on Sept. 11. It was just his third top-10 finish of his college career when he finished 2-over 218. He was also second
on the CSU team and helped them finish in fourth for the tournament. Cannon truly busted out of the gates last week, when he took home his first two collegiate victories in a span of six days. It started with Cannon being the low man at the Ram Masters Invitational, hosted by CSU at the Fort Collins Country Club. The tournament was held on Sept. 19-20, and in the final round, Cannon shot a personal best 6-under 64 and finished 7-under 203 for the tournament.
His 203 set the record for the lowest 54-hole score in the tournament’s history. Cannon would not stop there however, as the team traveled down to New Mexico to play in the prestigious William H. Tucker Intercollegiate. The course is one of the six sites for the 2016 NCAA Regionals and the tournament has a long list of famous winners that include Tiger Woods and Hall of Famer Johnny Miller. The magnitude of the tournament did not get to Cannon,
as he shot under par in all three rounds to finish at a 6-under 210, highlighted by a second round 3-under 69. Cannon would seal the victory with a 2-under 70 to win the title by two strokes and become just the second Rams’ golfer to ever win the event. His play also helped the Rams finish in second overall at a 9-over 873. Cannon joins a list of only nine other players in CSU history with multiple career wins and is the seventh CSU golfer to win two in one year. His 70.11 stroke
average is also the best on the team so far this season. “To win on such a tough golf course made it even better,” Cannon said in a statement after winning the Tucker. “I am also really proud of how well the team played. It has been a great start to the year.” Cannon looks to continue his success in a couple weeks when the team heads to Parker, Colorado, for the Paintbrush Intercollegiate on Oct. 10-11.

Deadline approaching for Alternative Spring Break, 16 destinations to be offered this year By Nicole Towne @nicole_towne21
While spring break may seem distant, the Student Leadership, Involvement and Community Engagement office in the Lory Student Center has been planning for spring break 2017 since this past April. The Alternative Spring break program offered through the SLiCE office is entering into its 17th year of trips. The program began by offering one trip in its first year, but is now giving students the opportunity to participate in one of 16 programs offered during the week-long break, as well as one trip offered over winter break. The spring break trips will take place in 15 cities across the U.S., as well as one trip to Achiote, Panama. Applications for the trip are due Oct. 25 at 5 p.m. “Our mantra is ‘see the world serve the world,’” said Kelsey Baun, the program coordinator for the SLiCE Office at CSU.
The trips allow students to visit places they have never been before and experience them through the lens of specific issues. Each trip has a topic of focus and partners with organizations in the city that students are visiting and volunteering in. Each trip is led by two student leaders and a faculty or community member. “Making the decision to apply my first year and go on an alt break my first year was single handedly the best decision I made in my CSU career,” said Sandy Broscheit, Alternative Spring Break student coordinator. “I think I just know a lot more about the world and my place in it because of alt break.” This year, Borscheit is a student leader for the Charleston, South Carolina trip. The trip focuses on abuse and neglect from an educational standpoint. “In Charleston, we’re hoping to look out how race, education and poverty intersect with these kids who may be experiencing abuse and neglect,” Bro-
scheit said. As part of the trip, students will be working with various organizations like Windwood Farms, which offers education, counseling services and programs for neglected and abused boys. “I think there is a good mix of hands-on active service where you are doing a lot of manual labor, which is true on a lot of the trips, (and it is) very well balanced with education on what these organizations do and why they’re important and what impact they make on the community,” Broscheit said. For many students, going on the trip is a life-changing experience. “It was really empowering and really eye opening,” said Carina Orozco, a student leader for the Panama trip, in regards to her first Alternative Spring Break trip, which was to New York City. The New York City trip is being offered again this year, and focuses on HIV and AIDS
and works with the Gay Men’s Health Crisis Center. “Even though we are doing service when we go there, I feel that participants get much more out of it than the people we are working with get from our service,” Orozco said. “I say that because, for me personally, it completely turned my life around. It not only changed the way I saw that issue but the way I see myself and just the way I
experience the world. It made me more of a critical thinker.” All students are eligible to apply for a grant up to $500 to put towards a trip. There will be two information sessions held on October 18 and 19 at 6 p.m. about how to apply. For more information about the trips, visit lsc.colostate.edu. Nicole Towne can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com

Bawarchi Byrani Point provides pricey, but tasty, Indian food By Megan Hanner @meganhanner48
Bawarchi Byrani Point is one of the newest places in town to get authentic northern and southern Indian cuisine. Located at 1611 S. College Ave., Bawarchi Byrani Point is a small and humble place to try new and tasty Indian food. This Indian and Indo-Chinese food chain is one of the largest in the country with locations in 13 states, according to their website. The first thing that is noticeable about Bawarchi Byrani Point is the décor. Simple decorations such as elephants, modern lighting and statues adorn the restaurant. Indian art and pastel colors decorate the walls, creating a relaxing environment to have dinner in. Televisions playing Indian music videos and shows add some entertainment and a little cultural education. When it is time to eat, visitors have their options. There is a small outdoor patio in front of the restaurant, a bar on the inside, booths and beautiful wooden tables. The number of choices on the
menu is a bit surprising and could even be a little overwhelming for someone not knowledgeable about Indian cuisine. The menu us divided into vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals, and diners have the option of a chicken, seafood or goat entrée. The menu even includes Tandoori, a style in which bread and barbeque dishes are cooked in a clay oven. Though the menu includes small descriptions of each dish, newcomers to Indian cuisine might struggle to pick something they would like. If a newcomer to Indian food has any questions on the menu, the staff at Bawarchi seemed very knowledgeable and provided great customer service. Chef specialties are also options on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays for those that might need a little direction. I ordered the Chicken Vindaloo. It is a fantastic dish, especially for those that like their food to be a little more on the hot side. Those that get spicy foods are asked by the server how spicy they would like the dish, which can range from mild to hot. This spicy and savory dish is made with chicken, gravy, potatoes and
coriander. For the 21 and over crowd, this meal goes very well with The Taj Mahal imported lager which is brewed in India. The Chicken Vindaloo is served with a side of rice, which helps to soak up some of the spice. Getting an order of plain Naan bread is also never a bad idea to cancel out the spicy flavor or to have something to dip in the dish. One dinner entrée is big enough to leave someone with a full stomach, and you might even
have enough for leftovers the next day. One thing to keep in mind is that the entrée prices are not very cheap. Entrées coast around 14 dollars apiece, so plan on spending a pretty penny to enjoy this dinner experience. Vegetarian entrees cost a little less than non-vegetarian options. With its extensive menu, approachable staff, relaxing environment and a location close to campus, Bawarchi
Byrani Point is a great starting point for anyone that is curious or new to Indian food. “The food you love. The tradition we follow” seems like an appropriate motto for this chain of authentic Indian restaurants. Bawarchi Byrani Point is also available for delivery through Order Up.

Lyric Movie Review: ‘Hell or High Water’ is one of this year’s best films By Alaysha Powell @alaysha_powell
With relatable themes centering around family bonds and life struggles, the recently released film “Hell or High Water” is captivating. The movie is about two brothers named Tanner (Ben Foster) and Toby (Chris Pine) and their struggle in providing for their loved ones. The brothers learn that their family land is at risk of being foreclosed on by the banks. Tired and beaten down by the hardships that life has thrown at them, the brothers come up with a plan to take back what is theirs. However, Marcus (Jeff Bridges), a Texas ranger, and his loyal partner Alberto (Gil Birmingham) keep the brothers on their toes, waiting for the second they make one small
mistake. While “Hell or High Water” takes place during recent times, there were similarities shared with old westerns. The actors wore blue jeans and cowboy hats, and they all spoke with a thick Texas twang. The production of “Hell or High Water” is absolutely stunning. There is a common stereotype that the South is flat, plain and boring, but the camera work used in the film puts these thoughts to rest. While the scenery is not something as grand as what you would find on the cover of “National Geographic,” it absolutely captures the beauty of the unique Texas terrain. The small town where the story takes place is also quite captivating. While some might think that there is not much to small see MOVIE on page 14 >>

>> CROSS COUNTRY from page 7 the season running on a tough, hilly course, Seattle will be on the opposite end of the spectrum. “It’s like a track on grass,” Jefferson Abbey said. “It’s extremely flat which results in some fast times. On the fast courses you need to be ready to grind at a fast pace. There are no excuses on courses like that.” Though CSU turned in some stellar individual performances at the Roy Griak invitational last week, injuries depleted their overall performance. On the men’s side, All-American senior Jefferson Abbey as well redshirt sophomore Cole Rockhold had to grind through minor injuries. Darby Gilfillan was also battling an illness on the women’s side. Now at full strength, All-American Jefferson Abbey has a clear picture of what his team needs to do to succeed in Seattle.
“What I have to do individually is exactly what we need to do as a team,” Abbey said. “We need to shake off any lack of confidence or timidity that we have. It doesn’t matter how good those guys are, we are a damn good team.” Current Mountain West men’s cross country athlete of the week Jerrell Mock was also far from pleased with how his team performed last week. After taking home the gold in the men’s 8k, he is confident his team can rise to the occasion this weekend. “I think we definitely have to learn a lot from the last meet because it definitely didn’t go as well as we were hoping,” Mock said. “Hopefully we can get it together and put on a better showing. And, we are definitely capable of doing that.” Coach Siemers knows that when his team is performing to

their maximum potential, they have the ability to perform extremely well. He also believes that when two of his top runners, Abbey and Mock, are at their best it motivates the entirety of the team. This could be crucial to the Rams success on Saturday. “When were at full strength and Jarred and Jeff are going back and forth towards the front it gives the guys a lot of confidence,” Siemers said. “I think it motivates them to run faster as well.” The Rams are eager to make a statement to top-tier competition this Saturday in Washington. “Our men fell in the rankings and we want to prove that we are better than we were at Griak, and the women want to prove that they belong in the rankings,” Siemers said.

>> MOVIE from page 13 country towns, this film makes you want to take a few days off and visit one. There is also something very appealing about how the characters are portrayed. The actors fit into their roles perfectly. Everything about the actors’ portrayals of the characters are done so well that I am still having a hard time believing that they do not exist. The problems that they face in the film are relatable to most people. The brothers are trying to figure out a way to protect themselves and their family from being casted off of their land, and desperate times can call for desperate measures. Most people would do whatever they could to protect their loved ones, and that is exactly what these brothers are doing in the film. The struggle and desperation felt almost crushing but in a good way. It was refreshing to see a movie capture that feeling. The plot was not forced at all. While it took a little bit longer for the audience to discover the full story, the details were revealed in a way that felt natural. I loved how the characters were given so much depth. They had both good
strong qualities that helped you empathize with them, but they also have several flaws. “Hell or High Water” got very dark at certain points. Some of the characters had severe anger issues, so if you are a person who gets uncomfortable with things like violence or unsettling outbursts, then maybe you should avoid seeing this film. But, while the film was rated R for strong violence, the film is not as graphic as other recent action movies. Final Score: 10/10 It is rare to give a movie a perfect score, and I am not a huge fan of western movies, but I loved this film. It just seemed to hit so close to home with experiences I have had and the experiences I have watched others have. It seemed so much more personal, especially since a lot of original films are not being released at the moment. If it does not seem like something you would necessarily be interested in, I would still strongly encourage you to give this film a chance. “Hell or High Water” will be screening at the Lyric Cinema Cafe through Oct. 6 Alaysha Powell can be reached at entertainment@ collegian.com
