While Colorado State University has continued to increase the number of students admitted in recent years, student housing has struggled to keep up, and now some complexes face growing waitlists.

AGGIE VILLAGE ■ Max Occupancy

Just under 1000 beds

■ Waitlist

Hundreds of students after Feb. 1

After Aggie Village opened in 2016, CSU’s newest on-campus appartment complex, hundreds of students were unable to secure a space in Aggie Village if they applied after Feb. 1, according to Tonie Miyamoto, director of communications for Student Affairs.

Aggie Village was built by CSU in order to offer a off campus living option in a convenient location for students, according to the Housing and Dining Services website. Because of its popularity, the apartment complex denied housing to many students.

“I applied (to Aggie Village) in January and didn’t hear back for two months,” said Nathan

Renshaw, a sophomore studying English and philosophy. “Then, I was waitlisted, (but) I had found somewhere else to live before then.”

RAMS VILLAGE ■ Max Occupancy

975 beds ■ Waitlist 10 groupsof single, triple and quadruple room apartments

Those who were not able to secure a unit for the apartments were given a few options: remain on the Aggie waitlist in

case space opened up later, cancel their application and receive a full refund of their deposit, move their application to another semester or transfer their deposit to the residence halls where space was guaranteed.

“Students were notified of their apartment assignment on an ongoing basis, beginning in late March, once we knew how many of last year’s residents were planning to stay and how many were planning to move out,” wrote Christie Mathews, director of Apartment Life in a statement to the Collegian. “About half of last year’s residents chose to stay, so we had just over 500 spaces available for this summer and fall.”

Housing and Dining could not provide a specific number of those waitlisted for Aggie Village because applications come in year round, and assignments are made on a rolling basis.

STATE ON CAMPUS ■ Max Occupancy

665 beds ■ Waitlist No waitlist

Other complexes faced pressure of growing demand, but with less students. see HOUSING on page 3 >>

New endowed chair researches ducks, other waterfowl birds

By Julia Trowbridge @chapin_jules

Colorado State University will conduct premier research on ducks and other waterfowl birds.

The Fish, Wildlife and Conservation Biology Department at Colorado State University received a new position called the James C Kennedy Endowed Chair of Wetland and Waterfowl Conservation.

David Koons, who holds a doctorate in wildlife science, began the position in July. In this role, Koons will conduct wetland and waterfowl research in the Central Flyway area, a region of the Americas that contains bird migration paths. This is the first endowed chair for this purpose in this Central Flyway region.

James C. Kennedy established the chair with a $3.1 million donation. Kennedy is one of the 50 richest people in the world with strong ties to CSU; one of his sons graduated from the University.

Koons was hired to fill the chair position by a group of faculty members including Kenneth Wilson, professor and department head for the College of Natural Resources, who has high

Rams Village, located less than a mile west of CSU, also dealt with a waitlist, but not of the same caliber. The waitlist size for different bedroom units did not exceed the number of units available, and only around 10 groups did not get a unit. The apartment complex established a wait list in order to give its current residents time to renew their lease.

Nicole Mizer, the community manager of Rams Village Apartments, believes that with the housing projects and current housing opportunities in the Fort Collins area, there is not a shortage of housing available.

“Timing can be a key factor for students depending on the type of housing they are wanting to lease,” Mizer wrote in an email to the Collegian. “I do not think there is a shortage of apartments available to CSU Students, especially with all the new housing, both geared directly for students and traditional, that is in the works to come online in the next 12 months.”

Another apartment complex geared to CSU students, State on Campus Apartments, avoids the

hopes for what the chair will accomplish.

“Koons has done some outstanding research,” Wilson said.

“His name was recognized, and other people were saying good things. I’m excited to see the different things he’ll be doing throughout the year.”

Analyze long term data to examine population changes in multiple species of waterfowl animals.

■ Current Study Lesser saup, a species of duck in southwestern Montana ■ Proposed Study

Before coming to CSU, Koons was a population ecologist, studying the changes in the abundances of various animal populations and how environ-

issue of wait-listing by stopping the signing of leases once a type of unit filled up.

“This year there was not a wait list for the property,” wrote Aaron Worley, leasing director for State on Campus Apartments, in an email to the Collegian. “There were certain unit types that we ran out of early on in the season and there was an internal wait list for those, that if a desired unit type became available for a future resident that was not available when they signed, they could be transferred to that unit prior to move-in.”

Because of high demand, Aggie Village has started planning to build another apartment complex that is similar in its off-campus lifestyle.

“The popularity of Aggie Village will influence our next housing project, which is slated for the Aylesworth/Newsom site,” wrote Mari Strombom, interim executive director for Housing & Dining Services. “We will begin planning next month and no date is set yet for groundbreaking, but now that Aggie Village has been open for a full year and we know that demand is high, we will plan to continue to build and renovate housing that appeals to students in a similar way.”

mental factors affected them.

At CSU, he works with students to focus on specific species in danger of extinction, like the duck species Lesser scaup, as well as other large scale population changes in waterfowl species. He currently has one postdoctoral student, two doctoral students and one master’s student starting on these projects.

“I have really focused on developing my statistical background during my MS and PhD; therefore, I wanted to work with someone who was good at seeing the big picture in terms of behavioral ecology and life-history traits,” said Frances Buderman, Koons’ postdoctoral student.

“And, I think his ecological insights will help elevate the work that comes out of this project to another level.”

In addition to his research, Koons organizes outreach opportunities to educate the general public about wetland and waterfowl conservation, and he will be teaching a class on the topic in the future. Koons sees the importance in creating awareness of his research.

“Right now, given the large scale transformation of lands to feed the growing human society, (wetlands and waterfowl)

research is important,” Koons said. “The land is getting drier due to climate change, and that’s a strong constrictor on the waterfowl population. The study of waterfowl as a response to the change in environment is even more dire now.”

With the establishment of this chair, CSU has the only es-

tablished chair for researching this topic.

“The fact that this is the second endowed chair in the Fish, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology Department is impressive,” said Wilson.

UC sues Trump admininistration over DACA

By Teresa Watanabe Los Angeles Times

The University of California sued the Trump administration Friday for rescinding protections for immigrant students without legal status, saying it unconstitutionally violates their rights on “nothing more than unreasoned executive whim.”

The lawsuit filed in the northern district of California is the first legal effort by a university to block the Trump administration’s decision to end protection from deportation of nearly 800,000 young immigrants who were brought to the United States illegally before age 16, completed high school-level education and stayed out of trouble.

UC President Janet Napolitano, who was an architect of the program in 2012 as U.S. Homeland Security secretary, said the decision to sue the federal government was not taken lightly. The 10-campus system educates about 4,000 students -- with teachers, researchers and health care providers -- who

are in the country illegally.

“It is imperative, however, that we stand up for these vital members of the UC community,” Napolitano said in statement. “They represent the best of who we are _ hard working, resilient and motivated high achievers. To arbitrarily and capriciously end the DACA program, which benefits our country as a whole, is not only unlawful, it is contrary to our national values and bad policy.

“As a result of the defendants’ actions, the Dreamers face expulsion from the only country that they call home, based on nothing more than unreasoned executive whim,” the complaint reads.

“The University faces the loss of vital members of its community, students and employees. It is hard to imagine a decision less reasoned, more damaging, or undertaken with less care. ...

Defendants’ capricious rescission of the DACA program violates both the procedural and substantive requirements of the APA (Administrative Procedure Act), as well as the

Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment.”

SERVICES UC WILL PROVIDE ■ Providing in-state tuition ■ Maintaining the DREAM loan

program for financial aid

■ Free legal services ■ Campus-based student-service

centers

■ Directions given to campus

police not to contact, detain, question or arrest individuals based on their documentation status, or to enter agreements to undertake joint efforts to make arrests for federal immigration law violations.

The lawsuit was filed with the pro bono support of the law firm Covington & Burling LLP. Napolitano has said UC campuses will continue to provide services for its immigrant students without legal status, also known as “Dreamers.”

Female students complete Marine Officer Candidate School

By Austin Fleskes @Austinfleskes07

Roughly 75 females nationwide entered and completed the Marine Corps Officer Candidate School program this past summer, including two Colorado State University students.

According to Capt. Ryan Hart, the officer selection officer of the Marine Corps Officer Program, participants are placed through a rigorous training process.

“It is one of the most physically, mentally and morally challenging leadership schools in the world,” Hart wrote in an email to the Collegian.

Hart expressed his excitement and pride for the two participants that finished

OCS school. Hart emphasized its importance by adding that the last female to commission as a 2nd Lt. in the Marine Corps from CSU was in 2011.

The mission of OCS is “to educate and train officer candidates in Marine Corps knowledge and skills within a controlled and challenging environment in order to evaluate and screen individuals for the leadership, moral, mental and physical qualities required for commissioning as a Marine Corps officer,” according to the Marine Corps’ website.

Participants in OCS complete either a 10-week program over the course of one summer or two six-week programs over the course of two summers.

The school breaks down its evaluation of participants into three categories: leadership, academics and physical fitness. By the end of the course, participants are expected to “command presence, communication skills, decision making and leading subordinates,” understand and learn Marine Corps history, tactics, operations and more as well as complete a list of different physical tasks and courses, all of which is laid out in the OCS website’s general information page.

Senior Sydney Murkins did not grow up in a military family, but was drawn to the idea of joining the military when she was figuring out what she wanted to

do.

“I was always really drawn to heroes and I guess I just ended up with the military,” Murkins said, adding that after talking to an officer she realized that it was what she wanted to do.

Murkins contracted with OCS in September 2014, and did her first six-week program in summer 2016 and her second in summer 2017. “(The program is) challenging, but it’s the best and worst time of your life,” Murkins said.

After finishing her OCS training, Murkins also described her graduation as a very surreal event, adding that she cried during the ceremony.

“I didn’t know if I was ever going to be able to do it,” Murkins said. “I’m incredibly excited. I would literally give up everything for this. It’s what I’ve always wanted, and I hope I can make a difference.”

According to Murkins, while the program is difficult, it should not stop other women from pursuing it.

“I think it’s weird for females to go through this,” Murkins said. “(But) just because we’re females shouldn’t make a difference.”

Another one of the females that completed the program was recently graduated student Kaitlin Derrick.

Contrary to Murkins, Derrick grew up in a military family and from a young age was inspired by

having a military career.

“The military really seemed like a good option,” Derrick said.

“I think it is a really good career opportunity.”

After contracting into OCS in January of this year, Derrick entered the 10-week program and realized how difficult it was for her.

“It was really kind of difficult for me at first. It was completely different from anything I had ever known,” Derrick said, adding that at first she was not physically ready for the program and had to adjust to it.

Derrick finished the 10week program and described her graduation as a great sense of accomplishment and something that made her feel very strong and confident.

“It was amazing to graduate,” Derrick said. “The feeling of graduating was sort of surreal because at points I didn’t think I would make it.”

The third female student that entered the program was senior Sarah Accardi.

Accardi became interested in the military in her junior year after attending a Marine Corps event. After contracting in February, Accardi began her first six-week program during the summer.

“It’s a very interesting experience,” Accardi said.

“You’re pushed to your max every day constantly, and you were constantly on. The main mission

of OCS is not to make you a leader but to screen your potential for leadership.”

During her fourth week, Accardi was running a timed stamina course when she fell and broke her fibula in her left leg. She was unable to finish the program.

However, Accardi is still pursuing her program and will continue her training after she is cleared.

“I can’t wait to go back. I miss it there,” Accardi said. “While I was there, I was challenged a lot, but it was a great experience. I can’t wait to be back.”

Panel discusses intersectional feminism at Dialogues Around Differences

By Colin Raunig @colinraunig

The first Dialogues Around Difference panel was held on Monday Sept. 11 to discuss intersectional feminism.

The monthly series, hosted by the Diversity Committee within the School of Social Work, focuses of topics of social justice and inclusion and featured a four-person panel of staff members of Colorado State University who have experience with intersectional feminism.

Cori Wong, the director of the Women & Gender Collaborative and an assistant professor in the Center for Women’s Studies and Gender Research, helped to lead the four-person panel.

Wong pointed out the difference between feminism and intersectional feminism as

well as the difference between inclusivity and intersectionality.

Wong used the recent efforts to understand the culture and climate of women faculty on campus, which may leave out of the conversation target efforts for faculty who are women of color.

“Women, yes, have an experience,” Wong said. “But, women of color have a different kind of experience. So, when we say, ‘We want to support women faculty,’ inclusivity is going to be like, ‘who can come?’

Intersectionality is going to (say), ‘who are we paying attention to?’”

Wong further expanded on her example by saying that if attention is not paid to the differences of women of color, then there lies a risk of erasing or ignoring certain facets of a population by not being fully authentic in efforts

to serve everyone, and it is not intersectional. Wong said that it is much more likely for the problems of an entire group to be recognized if efforts begin with marginalized groups, such as women of color.

“You don’t have to do everything for everyone,” Wong said. “But, if you start with those who are on the margins of marginalized groups, you are far more likely to be working against those systems that are systems of oppression and exclusion.”

Wong went on to say that while she understands that some people feel overwhelmed at the notion of intersectionality, those who felt that way were missing the point.

“In order to be intersectional, it’s not ‘do everything for everyone’ and all those little nodes of uniqueness, but rather,

in your practice, are (you) paying attention to the most vulnerable people and providing services for them,” Wong said Another panel member, Charlotte Salinas, spoke of her experience facing cultural and familial norms as a Latina. Salinas works in the Office of Orientation and Transition programs. Salinas said she had very clear messages growing up that the expectations for her life were to get married at a young age, have children and serve her husband. Salinas said this was in contrast to the expectations of white women she grew up with. Salinas said challenging these expectations can be difficult.

“How do I have those conversations with my family and challenge that?” Salinas asked. “And, also how do I then challenge my community on that

and really make sure that young Latinas know there is more (to life) than just what we are being told?”

Also in attendance on the panel were Angelica Murray, the program coordinator for the Women and Gender Advocacy Center, and Jovan Rivera, a founder of the Student Feminist Fight Club.

The next Dialogues Around Differences event will be held Monday Oct. 2, in the Lory Student Center 312, to discuss support systems for immigrants and refugees in northern Colorado. The third and final event of the semester will be held Monday Nov. 11, in the Bohemian Auditorium, to discuss the ethics of the supply chain in the global economy.

Fort Collins’ homeless population suffers under city policies Spencer Reed @sbreed96

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.

Homelessness has become an ongoing problem in the City of Fort Collins. Policy makers have been addressing the issue poorly, therein leading to unfair penalties being given to disadvantaged vagrants by law enforcement.

Throughout 2016, there were around 300 homeless people in Fort Collins. A concerning 12 percent of the population is under 18. 68 percent of the homeless persons in Fort Collins identified themselves as disabled.

These unsettling numbers are on the rise, and the city is currently

handling the issue with only a couple of programs. Such programs, like Safe Place to Rest, are not enough to contain the troubling issue.

Safe Place to Rest, a program adopted by Fort Collins, is shaped after a similar one based out of Nashville, Tennessee.

It includes sheltering sites grounded around the community that are completely volunteer based. In the first year of the program 126 guests were aided by 64 volunteers. The programs inaugural year was considered a success. However, I believe it still needs much improvement, because only a fraction of the total homeless population received help.

Homeward 2020 is another Foco-based program that promotes improving vagrancy around town. Their efforts go towards finding the means needed to create housing opportunities for those on the streets. The program does so through collecting data, being an advocate, bringing important

people together around the issue, as well as informing the community about the topic.

According to their website, “Homeward 2020 advocates for the creation of a transferable system that drives an efficient and effective process for the time between identifying people experiencing homelessness who want housing to a solution that meets their needs.”

The City of Fort Collins grants Homeward 2020 $25,000 per year. A generous act, but it is still not nearly enough to address the city’s homelessness problem considering the amount of transients turned down by the city’s most notable shelters.

In July there were nights where the Fort Collins Rescue Mission hit its capacity for male residents. The Catholic Charity Shelter experienced the same exact issue 21 nights of the month as well. When transients are turned away from shelters such as these, it puts them at risk to receive jail time for violating the city’s sit-lie law.

This is not the only unfair Fort Collins law that hinders the less fortunate. The non-smoking policies placed in and around Old Town are biased against the immobile homeless. Authorities who catch those smoking within the banned zones could be issued a fine up to $1,000 plus a mandatory court appearance.

Failure to appear in court after receiving a ticket may lead to arrest.

Not only is this process unjust for the homeless in Foco, but for the taxpayers as well. Between 2012 and 2016 just 10 transients shared almost 5,000 jailed days, which ended up costing around $500,000 in jail operations. The top 20 most arrested persons in Fort Collins have accounted for about 7,500 jailed days. That’s over 20 years of jail time alone, and most of these detainments have been the result of missed court dates following disorderly conduct tickets.

It seems that efforts made by the City of Fort Collins to control its current homeless issue have

ACCORDING TO THE SITLIE LAW, THOSE WHO: ■ Leave personal property unat-

tended on a public sidewalk or bench ■ Kneel or lay within 10 feet of a public restroom or transit facility ■ Lie on things not designated as sitting areas within 20 feet if a transit facility Run the risk of being placed in jail for six months as well as being fined up to $2,650. had no sustainable impact. It’s not the fact that the city isn’t addressing the issue, because they most definitely are. The problem is that they’re efforts have made no major impact, and transients as well as tax payers around Foco are paying an enormous price.

Pulling money for UN fund leaves women at risk

By Carolyn B. Maloney CQ-Roll Call

As the world faces multiple humanitarian crises around the world, few political actions have been as cruel and shortsighted as the Trump administration’s decision to cut off funding to the United Nations Population Fund.

This U.N. agency provides lifesaving maternal health care in regions of the world plagued by conflict, famine and disaster and has saved countless lives around the world. With millions of refugees forced from their homes during the reign of terror across the Middle East brought on by groups such as ISIS, cutting funding for one of the world’s foremost humanitarian medical organizations is reckless, immoral, and actually harmful to our national security.

During humanitarian crises, women and girls often have very limited for basic health services, such as contraception, while at the same time, they are at greater risk of sexual violence. This dangerous combination means more unplanned pregnancies, more birth complications and more mothers and children facing illness and death. In fact, more than 500 women die every day from complications of pregnancy and childbirth in countries affected by crisis.

In some of these crisis areas, UNFPA is the only health care

provider. This agency -- which most people in the U.S. have never heard of -- reaches the world’s most marginalized women, those most in need of care, providing lifesaving health care and helping women restore their dignity.

Despite the critical role that UNFPA plays around the world and the importance of providing basic health services in areas of the world that can degenerate into safe havens for terrorists who would threaten our national security, the Trump administration has proposed to cut off all U.S. funding for this international agency. This would be devastating for UNFPA. As the wealthiest country in the world, the U.S. is a much-needed donor to UNFPA’s humanitarian work. Last year alone, with muchneeded U.S. funding, UNFPA was able to deliver basic maternal health care to 9 million people in crisis situations.

Eliminating the United States’ contributions will have dire and deadly consequences.

After the devastating earthquake that hit Haiti in 2010, UNFPA opened a midwifery school and training program to rebuild the country’s contingent of skilled birth attendants. When disaster struck again in the form of Hurricane Matthew last year, a UNFPA-trained midwife risked her own life to deliver six babies in waist-deep water all by flashlight.

In Jordan, UNFPA supports the sole maternity ward for the

Zaatari refugee camp’s tens of thousands of residents, enabling pregnant Syrian refugees to have safe births and healthy babies. To date, UNFPA has helped deliver more than 7,500 babies at the camp without a single maternal death. In South Sudan and around the world, UNFPA is a key partner in a program offering free surgery to help women suffering from obstetric fistula, a devastating -and almost entirely preventable -- birth injury sustained in prolonged labor without a skilled attendant or timely medical intervention.

Americans are compassionate people. Contributing to UNFPA is one of the most effective ways for the U.S. to help some of the most vulnerable women and girls around the world.

No matter where you live, the status of women has a significant impact on the capacity of a nation or region to recover from a crisis and achieve future stability and prosperity. We must make a firm statement that the U.S. values the lives of women around the world and will continue to support the best health outcomes for mothers everywhere.

I call on my colleagues in Congress to fully restore funding for UNFPA’s lifesaving humanitarian work. Women and families around the world truly depend on our action.

Student featured on “ImShmacked” goes on power trip

NOPE DOPE Betsy DeVos Getting free food at work

Ethan Vassar @ethan_vassar

Editor’s note: This is a satire piece from the Collegian’s opinion section. Real names may be used in fictitious/semifictitious ways. Those who do not like reading editors notes are subject to being offended.

FORT COLLINS -- After recently being featured on the official ‘ImShmacked’ Instagram page, Colorado State University student Katelyn Smith adopted the, “jealousy is a disease, get well soon b*tch” attitude towards life.

Shortly after receiving the notification she had been featured, Smith quit her job as a barista at Dutch Bros.

Smith later visited a local Starbucks so she could take a picture of her drink for her Instagram story. She promptly went into hysterics when the barista asked her name, furious that they did not already know who she is.

Later in the day, she visited Chipotle to “snap a pic” of her food and caption it, “I literally live at Chipotle lol” on Snapchat. Angry that they would charge someone of her elite status extra for guacamole, Smith refused to pay and stormed out of the door, stopping to look at her reflection in the mirror.

Smith’s sorority sisters are reportedly concerned about

her recent behavioral change.

“She didn’t even comment on my new gluten cleanse,” one sister who wished to remain anonymous said.

Thankfully, sources say the power rush that’s gone to Smith’s head should disappear soon.

“I mean, she’s a total babe and I love her, but she has to chill,” close friend Laura Wats said. “Like, who hasn’t been featured on ImShmacked?”

Wats has not been featured on ImShmacked, but has appeared on FoCoSnaps.

Smith recently broke up with her boyfriend following the post, and one reporter at the Collegian would love to talk to her should she need it.

This column was originally published on July 21, 2017, but is being published again with additional updates due to more actions by Betsy DeVos regarding the Title IX policy addressing sexual assault on campus.

Once again, Betsy DeVos is in the spotlight for her controversial stance on Title IX sexual assault policies on campus, where she framed those falsely accused of sex crimes as the real victims of campus policies addressing this epidemic of sexual violence.

In light of her decision to take Title IX funding from universities to combat sexual assault it’s clear why many people are up in arms.

that receive Title IX funding have partnered in an effort to combat sexual violence on campuses, which are often hotbeds of misconduct when it comes to assault and other sex crimes. So why did DeVos have a change of heart?

Well for one thing, advisers close to the education secretary have cited alarming numbers: claiming that the number of ambiguous ‘we were both drunk’ cases ruining young men’s lives are the vast majority of cases reported on campus. At least that’s what Candice E. Jackson, the top civil rights official at the Department of Education said in an interview on the new plans.

Yes, we are talking about young men’s lives, as those are the only victims it seems that DeVos and Jackson are eager to protect in her recent decision making.

Currently, at the college level, our nation is embroiled in many high-profile sexual assault cases, but to say that 90 percent of these cases are the result of two drunk students where nobody is the victim is just factually incorrect. While Jackson later apologized for her untrue remarks, the damage is already done if DeVos still does not see the shaky basis of her

thinking.

Taking away funding from universities to address the rising issues of sexual violence in an effort to placate outskirts groups of falsely accused men is like taking one step forward and three steps back.

In her most recent remarks, DeVos seems to minimize victims, with statements such as “But if everything is harassment, then nothing is,” and “There are men and women, boys and girls, who are survivors, and there are men and women, boys and girls who are wrongfully accused.”

In both of these examples, DeVos misses the mark by framing victims of sexual assault and victims of false accusation as on equal footing in terms of likelihood of being victimized by Title IX as a system to address sexual assault on campus.

Studies show that false accusations are quite rare, amounting to only between two to eight percent of cases.

At a time when actual victims are often mistreated and blamed, it is an outrage that this administration would give greater priority to these groups as victims.

According to the National Sexual Violence Resource Center, “Research shows

that rates of false reporting are frequently inflated, in part because of inconsistent definitions and protocols, or a weak understanding of sexual assault.”

Perhaps it’s the semantics here, however it seems the greatest culprit of this new thinking on policy from our administration absolutely stems from a weak understanding of sexual assault. You need only look towards the fountain of Trump supporters and surrogates who tried to change the definition of sexual assault after then presidential candidate Trump was implicated in this crime in the leaked Trump tape.

The problem with DeVos’ thinking here is her inability to see the forest for the trees.

Throughout her discussion on Title IX and the “Dear Colleague” letter, she has framed victims of sexual assault and victims of false accusation as if they are on an even playing field, when in reality the phenomenon of false accusations is rare.

Of course there are groups of people wrongfully accused of sexual assault. There are also people wrongfully accused of murder in the prison system.

That does not mean we should take away funding resources to

arrest those who are accused of murder. However, that’s exactly what the administration is doing to victims of sexual assault on campus, it is taking away their resources because of a statistically insignificant number of case mishandlings.

There are no perfect systems.

The problem with these recent actions by DeVos to address the issue of needing more due process in Title IX processing was completely mishandled when the administration decided to step away from this resource entirely. Effectively, recent policy is throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

If this administration truly cared about helping victims, as DeVos repeatedly asserted in her remarks, they would focus on reforming the system of Title IX, rather than abandoning it.

Instead, DeVos and the Trump administration are leaving victims of sex crimes without previous resources available to them to find help.

It’s the worst possible message we could be sending to victims of sexual violence—“We hear you, but you’re probably lying half the time anyway.”

FOOTBALL

Balancing tempo on offense key against No. 1 Alabama

By Colin Barnard @ColinBarnard_

After defeating Abilene Christian for its second win of the season, the Colorado State football team turns its attention to the most daunting task in college football: traveling to Tuscaloosa to square off against the No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide.

Year in and year out, the Tide consistently field one of the best teams in the nation, evidenced by winning four of the last eight national championships. What’s more, CSU head coach Mike Bobo believes that this year’s team could be even better.

“When you watch this team on tape, offensively, defensively and special teams, it’s probably the best-coached football team that I’ve seen in a long time,” Bobo said. “It’s going to be a big challenge for us, one that we’re excited about and looking forward to. We’ve got a lot of work to do, but it’s going to be a huge challenge.”

In addition to the Hall of Fame pedigree of head coach

Nick Saban, Alabama’s abundance of playmakers on both sides of the ball makes game planning that much more difficult. On defense, Bobo compared Alabama’s front four to that of an NFL team. He also called safety Mincah Fitzpatrick one of the best players he has seen on tape.

ALABAMA AT A GLANCE ■ SEC Champions: 2016, 2015, 2014,

2012 ■ National Champions: 2015, 2012, 2011, 2009 ■ 2017: W: Florida State (24-7), W: Fresno State (41-10)

To this point in the season, CSU has experienced some success running an up-tempo offense. When they have done so, the speed and athleticism from many skill players is used to hurt opposing defense.

However, running that style of offense against such a strong defense can be detrimental for the Rams if they are unable to convert. Giving the ball back to

an offense of Alabama’s caliber in such short time makes the conundrum even more pressing.

“You’ve got a chance when you go fast to get guys on their heels, where their cleats are not screwed into the grass and they’re not coming down hill against you,” Bobo said. “But on the flip side of that, if you’re going so fast and things aren’t going well, you’re giving the ball back to their offense in a hurry.

If you go really fast and don’t get first downs and don’t convert, you’re putting the defense in a bad situation.”

While the Rams may like to play up-tempo at times, lack of depth may hinder their ability to do so. Already battered on the offensive line, the Rams may be without right tackle Ben Knox and guard Colby Meeks against Alabama. Wide receiver Trey Smith is also expected to miss multiple weeks. Finding a way to play fast while balancing the depth will be another key for Bobo come Saturday evening.

“We’ve gone fast at times, but we’re not very deep at receiver,” Bobo said. “We haven’t

been able to sustain that tempo…and (have) had to slow it down at times. It’s a long season and there are times in the game where I have to slow down offensively just to take care of our skill guys where we’re a little bit thin. When we slow down sometimes, it gets us out of our rhythm. We’re better when we go fast, but at the same time we don’t have a lot of depth so it’s

kind of a catch-22 for us.”

Bobo will return to his Southeastern Conference roots for the first time since coming to CSU in 2015, as the Rams face the Crimson Tide on Saturday, Sept. 16 at 5 p.m. MT. The game will be televised on ESPN 2 and is streamable through the WatchESPN app.

Rams climb rankings in weekly AVCA coaches poll

By Austin White @ajwrules44

The Colorado State volleyball team has moved up to No. 22 in the latest AVCA coaches poll released Monday. The Rams finished last weekend with a perfect 3-0 record, including a sweep of then-No. 16

Michigan Wolverines on Friday night.

CSU started the week Friday afternoon with a 3-1 victory over the Ball State Cardinals in which redshirt sophomore Breana Runnels had a career high 19 kills. Senior Sanja Cizmic added in 12 kills against Ball State as her tournament MVP

weekend performance was just getting started.

The match against Ball State was a warm up for Michigan, who came into the game forcing their opponents to hit under a .200 clip. CSU would flip the script on the Wolverines and dominate offensively all game, as seen by their .396 hit percentage for the match.

Cizmic imposed her will with 13 kills and a .550 hit percentage as she led the team in both of those categories.

Defense struggled a bit as the Rams had only four blocks, but what they lacked at the net was made up from the arms of their outside hitters in the Rams second sweep over a top 25 team this season.

Those numbers would carry over into Sunday when the Rams matched up with the Idaho State Bengals to try and complete the weekend sweep.

Cizmic once again was not only picking up kills left and right, but was also efficient with a .421 hit percentage for the match to go with 10 kills.

CSU also had a big blocking performance, highlighted by

Runnels and sophomore Paulina Hougaard-Jensen. They each had seven blocks with Runnels picking up one solo block and Hougaard-Jensen having four blocks in the third and final frame.

The Bengals had no real answer for the four headed attacking barrage of CSU that also saw 10 kills from senior Jasmine Hanna, 13 from Runnels and nine from Hougaard-Jensen.

CSU went on to sweep the Bengals, their fifth sweep victory of the season.

The weekend show put on by Cizmic earned her the tournament MVP award to help lead the Rams to the title.

Runnels and sophomore Katie Oleksak were also named to the all-tournament team with Oleksak picking up 137 assists in three matches.

The scariest part for the rest of country is that the Rams have reached number 22 without having a single fully healthy lineup. Senior Alexandra Poletto had sat out every game this season until she finally saw action against Michigan. The middle blocker was able to contrib-

ute five kills on eight attacking attempts.

Sophomore Kirstie Hillyer was named Mountain West Defensive Player of the Week last week, but had to be out all weekend due to a knee injury suffered against Florida State.

Senior McKenna Thronlow was also down all weekend with a concussion.

The Rams will hope to have all three players back next weekend as they complete the non-conference portion of their schedule with another home tournament. CSU will put their eight-game win streak on the line when they welcome Albany University, Xaiver University and Colorado University to Fort Collins.

The first match for the Rams will begin on Friday against Albany at 7 p.m. and it will be followed by two matches on Saturday. Xaiver will be up first at 1 p.m. and the night cap will be against rival CU and it will be the team’s annual “Green Out” game. That match is set to begin at 7 p.m. on Saturday.

Alonzo Tyson sidelined for 2017-2018 season

By Eddie Herz @Eddie_Herz

The Colorado State men’s basketball team took another shot for the 2017-18 season.

After announcing that guard Devocio Butler would not be returning to CSU less than two weeks ago, it has been announced that the Rams will be without 6-foot-9 forward Alonzo “Zo” Tyson next season.

The Rams signed Tyson last April with two years of eligibility remaining. The Fayettville, N.C.

native originally committed to High Point University upon graduation from Trinity Christian High School in 2015.

However, Tyson never suited up for the Panthers and decided to play for Cape Fear Community College instead.

The forward started 25 of 32 games as a freshman on Cape Fear during the 2015-16 season.

Tyson averaged 12.9 points and 7.6 rebounds per game to go along with 1.2 blocks for each contest.

Tyson was a weapon from the floor, shooting 62 percent overall

that season. He also collected a career-high 20 rebounds against Denmark Technical College on Feb. 13, 2016.

Tyson’s second and final season in junior college was even more effective than his first. The forward improved his scoring, rebounding and blocking numbers in his sophomore season. Tyson averaged 14 points, 8.4 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game last season while shooting 65.2 percent from the floor. Tyson scored a career-high 27 points towards the end of last season as

VOLLEYBALL

well.

Tyson spent his first two high school years at Goldsboro high school in North Carolina before transferring to Trinity Christian as an upperclassman.

The forward’s talent became very noticeable when he was a sophomore at Goldsboro. Tyson scored 9.4 points and grabbed an average of 8.4 rebounds per game that season.

As a junior at Trinity Christian, Tyson’s 9.7 points and 5.9 rebounds per game helped lead his team to the 2013-14 North

Carolina state championship.

Individually, Tyson’s final high school season was the most dominant. Though he didn’t win it, Tyson was one of only nine players in North Carolina to be nominated for the McDonald’s All-American Award.

With Tyson out of the picture until the 2018-19 season, the Rams have only three eligible forwards on their roster next season in Nico Carvacho, Che Bobo and Kimani Jackson.

Rams sweep weekly conference Men’s golf finishes second honors after dominant weekend

By Evan Grant @EvanNGrant

By Luke Zahlmann @lukezahlmann

After sweeping both Michigan and Idaho State over the weekend, the Colorado State women’s volleyball team continued the trend Monday and swept both of the conference awards for the week. Sanja Cizmic and Paulina Hougaard-Jensen were each honored by the Mountain West, respectively being named offensive and defensive player of the week.

Cizmic, a senior from Split, Croatia, played a pivotal role in the sweep of No. 16 Michigan, as she hit .550 and tallied a team-leading 13 kills. In total, Cizmic hit .415 and tallied 35 kills for the week. Despite miss-

ing portions of their matches to begin the season, Cizmic has battled through injuries and turned in multiple persevering performances. The veteran has shown senior leadership on an otherwise young Rams team.

On the other side of the spectrum, Hougaard-Jensen took home DPOY honors after filling in yet again for a beat-up Rams squad, and performing above and beyond what other starters in the Mountain West did. Hougaard-Jensen recorded 16 blocks over three matches this weekend, while also hitting at a .500 clip with 30 kills. Hougaard-Jensen now leads the team with 43 total blocks this season.

The Rams led a dominant weekend on both sides of the ball

in their tournament, pushing their season hitting percentage to .315 while allowing opponents to hit a mere .174. Along with the individual honors from the conference, the Rams also climbed to No. 22 in the weekly AVCA coaches poll.

Colorado State has now garnered three player of the week awards as a team and compiled an 8-1 record. The Rams will next takes the court this weekend with their second split-tournament of the season. CSU will host Albany on Friday, Sept. 15, before squaring off with both Xavier and in-state rival Colorado on Sept. 16.

Colorado State men’s golf finished off the weekend with a second-place finish in the 2017 Gene Miranda Falcon Invitational on Sept. 8-10. The event was hosted by the Air Force Academy and was played at the par 72 Eisenhower Blue Course at USAFA, Colo.

CSU finished the tournament with a 24-under 840, second only behind the University of Wyoming who finished with a 29-under 835.

The Rams finished ahead of in-state rival CU and defeated last year’s Mountain West Champion UNLV. Senior Max Oelfke was the highest placing Ram in the tournament shooting a 3under 69 in the last round to finish as the runner-up behind John Murdock from Wyoming.

Oelfke was 1-over at the turn but birdied the first four holes of the back nine to shoot a 4-under 32 for the side and post his third under-par round of the tournament.

“Max was great this weekend,” head coach Christian Newton said in a statement.

“I’m pleased to see him continue his great play from the summer. His four birdies in a row came at a great time on the back nine.”

Colton Yates, the next Ram in the rankings, tied for seventh place with a 6-under 210. The senior recorded an even-par 72 in the final round to secure one of his career finishes.

Other Rams that performed well over the weekend were sophomore AJ Ott and junior Jake Staiano. Ott finished the weekend with his first collegiate top 10 finish, tying for tenth place with a 5-under 211. Staiano finished 17th at 3under 213.

“AJ had a great event and has grown a lot in a year and this was a career best for him,” Newton said.

The Rams’ next tournament is the annual Ram Masters Invitational on MondayTuesday Sept. 18-19 at the Fort Collins Country Club. CSU enters the tournament as threetime defending champions after winning last year’s team title by seven shots.

Zwei Brewery offers a relaxed atmosphere

By Mack Beaulieu @mack_enzie_james

Zwei Brewery’s name is not as noticeable as New Belgium or Odell’s, but it could be earning a place at the top of beer enthusiasts’ lists.

Specializing in German beers, the brewery has a welcoming atmosphere and a diverse age range. It is easy to see why Zwei has built a healthy following in the Fort Collins brew scene.

The beer definitely stands out at Zwei, particularly, the light German beers. Jason Joseph has been a regular since around the time Zwei opened three years ago.

“I appreciate good German beers, and it’s very tough to get them in most breweries in Colorado,” Joseph said. “They tend to serve ales.” Joseph quickly pointed out that his favorite beers are the Pils, the Helles and the Dunkel.

The Helles was mentioned as a favorite by multiple patrons, as well as beer-tender Brandon Kolinek. It is a Golden Lager with a flavorful, citrusy bite. It

is well-balanced between malt and hoppiness and would pair well with the wood-fired pizza or German-style sausages that are often available on the outside patio or parking lot.

ZWEI BREWERY ■ Location: 4612 S Mason St. #120 ■ Hours of operation: Sunday, 11

a.m.- 7 p.m, Monday-Saturday, 11 a.m.- 10 p.m.

While the light German beers seem to be the most popular here, the menu also features six beers that have over seven percent alcohol and four IPAs. The Willy Nelson IPA was mentioned as a favorite as well as The Beer Named “Sioux.” The beer list is diverse and welcoming, much like the atmosphere.

“In Fort Collins, breweries are so common that the beer has to be good,” Kolinek said. “When people come for the beer they get to experience the atmosphere. ...

We kind of keep the small town feeling of Fort Collins alive.”

While the beer is fantastic and good enough to be featured

in multiple bars around town, the atmosphere is not a far second in reasons to come to Zwei Brewery. The atmosphere is light and relaxed with some German decor, but it is probably one of the more modern feeling German bars you will find.

The whole bar is very open with garage-style doors that will let in a breeze from the patio. The patio features a regulation-size pingpong table as well as giant Jenga and plenty of shade. Dogs are allowed as well, so you are sure to see a few pettable pups.

As fun as the set-up is at Zwei, it has a mature atmosphere and caters to mostly experienced drinkers.

“I kind of appreciate not having a lot of new coming drinkers on the scene because that can be kind of intense,” said Teresa Olsen, a senior veterinary student at CSU. This is another highlight of Zwei. The atmosphere should not be classified as conservative or old, but it definitely provides for people who want to get tipsy and have conversations rather than getting super trashed. It is

a great option for the junior or senior student who’ is sick of intense, sweaty rooms.

On top of the great beer and atmosphere, Zwei is easily accessible with the Harmony Max station just a short walk away. It is also very affordable at $5 for

‘Ingrid Goes West’ ‘ReDress: Upcycled Style’ exhibit inspires conversation criticizes modern social about environmental activism media dependence

By Maddie Wright @maddierwright

The conversation surrounding clothes and environmentalism is one the Fort Collins Museum of Art is trying to have.

“ReDress: Upcycled Style” is the latest exhibit at the Fort Collins Museum of Art. This exhibit showcases works by artist Nancy Judd who has created dresses, shoes and purses entirely out of recycled materials.

The museum’s brochure about the exhibit describes it as “glamorous, shimmering evening gowns, appearing as fine couture and refined garments.”

“She posts how many hours it takes her to work on them, 200 to 600, (which is) kind of underscoring how long it takes to make something that is so beautiful and handmade and different from how clothing is created in our culture today,” said Lisa Hatchadoorian, the executive director for the Fort Collins Museum of Art. Despite crafting many dresses for this traveling exhibit, Judd does not consider herself a clothing designer; she is an artist and an environmental advocate.

One of the main purposes of this exhibit is to educate and demonstrate the amount of waste produced. According to Judd, the clothing industry is the second biggest polluting industry in the world.

Growing up in Portland,

Oregon, Judd has been connected to the environment since childhood.

“In nature there’s no such thing as trash; there’s no garbage,” Judd said. “When a leaf falls to the ground it becomes a feed source.”

Judd also grew up around art.

Her mother, who passed away earlier this year, was an artist who later became the president of an art school. With this influence, Judd had an artistic streak as a young girl.

“My first recycled fashion, though, I created for my little teddy bear,” Judd said. “I used to make it little dresses and outfits from scraps of material.”

In a speech given by Judd on Sept. 8, she discussed how the fashion industry’s relationship with the environment is not its only issue. Judd spoke about how clothing is manufactured internationally in many places that are not treated humanely and how that is a social justice issue that should not be overlooked.

“Other human beings are paying for our cheap fashion,” Judd said.

Being such a sustainability focused area, this type of exhibit is perfect for a Fort Collins audience.

“Fort Collins prides itself on being sustainably oriented city, so this is looking at it from an artistic viewpoint,” Hatchadoorian said.

While some of the U.S is battling wildfires and other parts are struggling with flooding, the environment is not something

we can ignore. This exhibit uses an unusual method of showing this message of environmental activism.

“People don’t necessarily always think of art as a medium for messages like this,” Hatchadoorian said. “It’s beautiful and not a bad place to start.”

“REDRESS: UPCYCLED STYLE” ■ Will be up through Oct. 22.

In her speech, Judd talked about the ways to combat the wastefulness of the clothing industry, encouraging people to not buy from chain stores, support local store, buy organic and durable clothing, and to never, ever throw away clothing.

“I want to encourage everyone to reclaim fashion as a form of personal creativity and resistance to consumerism,” Judd said. “Be a real rebel and wear practical clothes that last a long time and are comfortable.”

This exhibit is not to necessarily show how much waste is produced but to reframe the way we think of what waste is.

According to the museum’s brochure, “she encourages people to look differently at trash, to see garbage not as waste but as wasted resources.”

Ingrid Thorburn discovers that a so-called friend has failed to invite her to her wedding. How does Ingrid react? Does she talk it out with Charlotte? Does she shrug it off?

Nope. Instead, Ingrid crashes the party and sprays Charlotte with mace.

With the words hashtag and emoji repeated throughout the movie, “Ingrid Goes West” is a powerful indictment of social media and the way it has shaped our interactions as human beings. And the movie makes a good case.

Ingrid Thorburn, played

by Aubrey Plaza, is an avid Instagram user. She also has deep-rooted mental problems, partly stemming from her mother’s death.

Forced into a mental institution, upon her release Ingrid hears one of Charlotte’s friends talking in a grocery store. It is revealed that Charlotte simply commented on one of Ingrid’s Instagram posts, and does not consider herself a friend. This speaks volumes about Ingrid’s character, and highlights the depth of her troubled soul.

While reading a magazine, Ingrid comes across an article about a prominent socialite, Taylor Sloane, played by Elizabeth Olsen, in L.A. One particular sentence stands out: “I love making friends all over the world.” And Ingrid is a woman without friends. Ingrid wants to be accepted, to belong and to be recognized. This line is a clarion call to Ingrid, a call to flee to Los Angeles.

In her quest to befriend Taylor, Ingrid goes to the most absurd lengths. She kidnaps Taylor’s dog Rothko in a desperate effort to be a hero. She spins a persona to stay in Taylor’s graces. She even wrecks her landlord’s truck on a trip to Joshua Tree with Taylor. Yet, the movie still manages to humanize an unstable and truly flawed character, keeping us emotionally invested.

Social media is key to the movie’s action, and Instagram posts and texts are a ubiquitous leitmotif. Taylor alone posts on Instagram ad nauseam. Only Taylor’s artist husband, Ezra, played

by Wyatt Russell, seems to be resistant to social media and

deception. He serves as the voice of reason, a rebel against an electronic cause. At one point, he mockingly refers to his wife’s Instagram followers as Instafans.

“I just prefer to keep certain parts of my life private,” he says firmly, revealing one of social media’s worst consequences in the movie. It forces our characters, especially Ingrid and Taylor to take on new personas, to seduce, to lie and to manipulate.

‘INGRID GOES WEST’ ■ Genre:

Comedy-drama

■ Director:

Matt Spicer ■ Release date: Aug. 11 ■ Starring: Aubrey Plaza, Elizabeth Olsen.

Billy Magnussen, Wyatt Russell, Pom Klementieff, O’Shea Jackson Jr. ■ Running time: 97 minutes ■ Playing at: Cinemark Fort Collins 16 ■ Fun fact: O’Shea Jackson’s second movie.

His first was “Straight Outta Compton” in which he played his father, renowned rapper/actor Ice Cube.

Also worth mentioning is O’Shea Jackson Jr.’s role as Ingrid’s love interest and landlord Dan Pinto. A Batman-obsessed, aspiring screenwriter, he is a source of comic relief and a fascinating character overall. I almost wish he had more time on the screen, especially given his commonalities with Ingrid.

Like Ingrid, who relies on Instagram as a mask, Dan relies on Batman as a source of comfort. Both lost their parents. That would have been worth fleshing out further.

But, that said, this is still a powerful, compelling film.

Should you see this movie? Yes. Take friends.

And put the cell phones away before the emojis and the hashtags hypnotize you.

COLLEGE

Eight best ways to procrastinate on school work

By Mir-Yashar Seredbagheri @dudesosad

Procrastination. It is an art form. We might not admit it, but it takes a particular finesse. Procrastination is underappreciated.

There are hundreds of ways to procrastinate like a pro. Here are a few of the better ones.

1. Netflix There is no finer method of procrastinating. You might be working on a paper, but keep shifting back and forth from that god awful English essay to episodes of “Family Guy.” That is all right. It is multitasking.

That is what you are going to be doing anyway, out in the real world. Right? Besides, maybe you can make that paper about “Family Guy.” 2. Food Who does not need to leave the library for the food court?

After all, how long can it take to grab a taco or a burger? It is not like you are going to linger, refilling that 30-ounce Coke

half a dozen times. Although, you could use the caffeine. Just one more refill. And hey, it is not your fault if you run into a friend there, is it?

3. Email It might be important. Your mother told you to check your email, after all. It would be wrong to miss a message. Even if it is not your sweet mother, it might be a friend. Or, crisisinducing advertisements.

What if you missed some sale, or a promo for some movie?

Plus, it is just fun to open and re-open the inbox waiting for the magic number one to pop up. That is a true art form.

4. Texting You have friends.

Communication is important.

Even if it is a seductive electronic screen, replete with goofy symbols like emojis.

Smiley emojis. Turd emojis that look disturbingly like icecream. But, that is beside the point. Text them about the most important things. The vital things, things upon which

your lives hinge. Describe the bathroom graffiti, or the fact that you simultaneously broke wind and belched in the library. That trumps studying about great philosophers and chemistry.

5. Exercise Legitimate physical excuse. Hit the treadmill. Go for a bike ride. Take a walk.

Half an hour. Just half an hour. Maybe an hour? Or, an hour and a half tops. If you do not exercise, you become a washed-up guy named Bubba with a sour attitude toward life and a liver that looks like the Russian Revolution. If you are late, plenty of excuses for that.

Your bike got a flat. You rode too far. Procrastination is an exercise, grasshopper.

6. Errands You are down to a few beers. You really need to hit the liquor store. Beer is your diet. Or, you need new clothes.

Or, furniture. Aesthetic beauty in your home is a must. No shortage of needs.

7. Doing literally nothing at all Lie on your bed. Think about the scene in “Office Space” when Ron Livingston’s character sleeps all day.

Fantasize. Imagine things.

Einstein said something about imagination being better than reality. Bring that in as an excuse for your professor.

TILT ACADEMIC SUCCESS WORKSHOPS ■ Teaches students skills relevant

to their academic, personal and professional lives ■ Times: Tuesdays at 4p.m., Wednesdays at 5p.m. and Thursdays at 6p.m.

8. And, of course, reading this listicle There is no better way to procrastinate than to read about all the best ways in the world to procrastinate.

Procrastinators learn from the masters. It is passed

down. It is a Jedi thing. All I can say is enjoy reading this listicle. No pressure. Keep on reading. Never mind that test tomorrow. After all, grades are pointless. They represent the man, trying to make you miserable.

Not to digress, but why do failing students not get F-pluses? Look that up too. That will help you procrastinate just a little longer.

‘IT’ remake is the face of horror for a new generation

By Ryan Greene

@Ryangre75057034

“The clowns are pissed at me,” tweeted Stephen King.

The legendary horror writer made news when Pam Moody, president of the World Clown Association, recently condemned one of his most infamous characters, Pennywise. According to USA Today, the WCA proclaimed that “people dressed as horror clowns are not ‘real clowns.’

They are taking something innocent and wholesome and perverting it to create fear in their audience.”

With this statement, clowns all over the globe would join the rest of us in bracing for 2017’s “IT.” As this bloody reimagining quickly displays, there is plenty to fear.

“IT’s” introductory minutes depict Pennywise’s face splitting open like the mouth of Jaws, as he bites the arm off six-year-old Georgie (Jackson Robert Scott).

A gloved hand stretches across the street, catching the fleeing boy and dragging him, still kicking, into a sewer drain.

While certainly a shocking way to acquaint audiences with this new, R-rated Pennywise (Bill Skarsgård), a nagging

question crops up: is this film truly scary, or merely a string of shocking moments amplified by “Oldboy” director of photography Chung-hoon Chung’s gorgeously gory visual style?

‘IT’ REMAKE ■ Rating:

R (for violence/horror, bloody images and language) ■ Genre: Drama, Horror, Mystery & Suspense ■ Directed By: Ande Muschietti ■ Written By: Chase Palmer, Cary Joji Fukunaga, Gary Dauberman ■ In Theaters: Sept. 8 ■ Studio: Warner Bros. Pictures In favor of the shock and spectacle without real horror argument, it must be acknowledged that Pennywise’s attack scenes display a predictable pattern. He isolates each of the six Loser’s Club members, barraging them

with their repressed fears. The intrigue in seeing exactly what keeps Bill, Ritchie, Beverly, Mike, Eddie and Stanley awake at night drives the plot but simultaneously loosens the film’s grip on quality suspense.

Instead of allowing us time to stew and feverishly anticipate the next attack, Muschietti’s storytelling proffers a nearconstant barrage of fluteplaying dibbuks, lepers whose eyes run down their faces like raw eggs, bleeding bathroom sinks and groping hands covered in third-degree burns.

If there is genuine horror to be found here, it is contained in the young actors’ faces.

There is good reason for their truly evocative performances.

According to his interview with “The Verge,” Muschietti refused to let his other actors see Skarsgård in full clown garb, as he didn’t want the cast to grow accustomed to the sight.

The first time the children saw the 7-foot clown in person, it was chasing them through moldering, dimly lit houses and screaming maniacally. The tactic evidently worked, and the on-screen fear is palpable.

The director told “IGN” that each of the children burst into tears after filming that first

scene, prompting a guilt-ridden Skarsgård to apologize to them profusely.

Scarsgård’s performance is another point in favor of seeing “IT” as horror and not just shock. Fans of the 1990 made-for-TV “IT” initially voiced disappointment when Tim Curry could not reprise his role as the razor-toothed clown.

However, Curry’s successor ably rebirths Pennywise into something new. Scarsgård’s odd, natural ability to move his eyes in opposite directions yields deeply unsettling facial expressions without the need for much CGI alteration. His jerky, unnatural movements and the sadistic delight that streaks across his face when he torments the Losers Club also go a long way in making the viewer forget his more than passing resemblance to the pale-faced, large-foreheaded Red Queen of 2010’s “Alice in Wonderland.” If you can get past that unflattering visual similarity, Pennywise starts to look like a creepy clown nearly on par with Heath Ledger’s Joker.

In King’s mythology, the creature called IT awakens every 27 years to wreak havoc and feast, a concept New Line

Cinemas capitalized on in their promotional material. “IT”’s release marks 27 years since the TV movie. Even Scarsgård’s 27th birthday passed during shooting. Fortunately, fans will not have to wait until 2044 to see the sequel. Grown-up versions of the Loser’s Club kids are set to return soon, as production on part II begins next year.

Should you see it? Yes. Although the scares inhabit a space between true horror and mere shock, the film’s greatest strength is its characterization.

It manages to weave a grounded, coming-of-age story together with expressionistic sets and visual dynamism. Despite the disjointed, dream-like narrative, the viewer is always anchored in the kids’ friendship, their humor and their deeply personal sadness.

In an interview with “ScreenSlam,” King said of novel writing, “To me, it’s all about character. If you like the characters, you don’t want them to be spam in a cabin, you don’t want them to be wiped out, you want them to live.” If this is the gauge for a good story, then “IT” certainly is worth watching in spite of its flaws.

Death from Above 1979 plays it safe with ‘Outrage! Is Now’

By Alec Erickson @CTV_Ace

Outrage is a bit of an overstatement.

Legal disputes and name changes can weigh a lot on anyone, let alone for a band that is putting out their third studio album. Death from Above 1979 has been an interesting punk duo to watch in the last few decades and has always been outspoken about the things they believe in.

That is why “Outrage! Is Now” is interesting; it tries to be thought provoking but ends up pretty shallow.

DEATH FROM ABOVE 1979 ■ Genre: Punk rock ■ Album: “Outrage! Is Now” ■ Length: 37 minutes

Death from Above 1979 consists of Jesse Keeler and Sebastian Grainger. When this Canadian duo first burst on the scene it was under the name Death from Above. In 2004, the band had to change their name following a legal dispute and has always been forward with how they felt about the situation. They released their debut album, “You’re a Woman, I’m a Machine,” under this name

to some moderate success. It was their sophomore record that put the band on the mainstream with “The Physical World.” The music matched the personality and embodied everything punk rock should be. Death from Above had a cause to make some music. “Outrage! Is Now” on the outside seems to follow that formula, but the execution is where it becomes confusing.

“Outrage! Is Now” is a 10-track record that clocks in at around 37 minutes in length.

When it first opens, you are treated with a slower paced track that doesn’t feel like Death from Above. The record really picks up around the middle when guitar riffs start and we lose some of the synthesizers. This is all before it flares out around the end, leaving you a bit confused to what you really listened to.

Musically, “Outrage! Is Now” has everything that makes a Death from Above record a Death from Above record. It just plays things a bit too safe even for them. Tracks like “Statues” and “Never Swim Alone” are just filled with mindless melodies and not a lot of progression. On the other hand, “Moonlight” and “All I C Is U & Me” are energetic and full of life with

fast riffs. There is just an overall confusing tone when it comes to this record. Every track seems to have another one be a perfect juxtaposition in style and structure, and you can hear this a lot with “NVR 4EVR” and “Caught Up.” Overall, there are a lot of mixed elements in the music, and the lyrics are not much better.

Lyrically, “Outrage! Is Now” may seem like it is taking a stance on, but when you really begin to listen to it, there is not a lot of substance to the lyrics.

While Grainger’s vocals are just the same and shaky as they have been, it’s the songwriting that holds this record back. Everything is shallow and a bit obvious in hindsight. The title track “Outrage! Is Now” is the only one that really tries to break the mold.

Should you listen to it? No. “Outrage! Is Now” is an ambitious record, but it is a safe record, too. There are a handful of songs to pick out and really enjoy on their own, but when everything comes together, it begins to lack a sense of purpose. I wouldn’t say that outrage is now.

Maybe, more like angst is now.

‘American Horror Story: Cult’ uses presidential election as fear tactic

By Ashley Potts @11smashley

Clowns, fear and election night anxiety permeated the debut of the latest “American Horror Story” installment, “Cult.”

The show is usually full of ghosts and dead people stuck in limbo, but this season has taken a turn into reality. Many fans made the joke on election night that this past election was a true American horror story, and show creator Ryan Murphy capitalized on that. This is the first season lacking a supernatural element.

While promotions for the show ahead of the premiere were confusing, the premiere cleared the air. The subject of this season is fear itself.

The part that’s confusing now is having political satire mixed in with a weekly dose of fear. This is a show that normally has fans significantly freaked out, but now there’s laughing.

“American Horror Story”

alum Sarah Paulson plays a “liberal snowflake,” Ally Mayfair-Richards. Fellow “American Horror Story” favorite, Evan Peters is the internet-trolling Trump supporter, Kai Anderson, who thrives off other people’s fear. Show newcomer, Billie Lourd, plays Peters’ sister, Winter Anderson, and at one point says there should have been a “trigger warning” ahead of the election results. It all seems a bit much and doesn’t accurately represent even the most devout liberal or conservative followers in real life.

Politics aside, “Cult” delivered the macabre scariness fans keep coming back for. There are clowns in plastic masks chasing Ally with a knife, having sex in the middle of the grocery store and waiting in the dark back seat of her car. Twisty the Clown makes an appearance, if only in comic book form. Fans are left to question whether the clowns are actually there or not, though, as Ally’s character suffers from

coulrophobia (fear of clowns).

Thus far, she and her son, Ozzy, are the only characters to confirm seeing clowns. Are they real or has Oz picked up on this irrational fear?

Ally also has trypophobia (fear of holes). Specifically, she has a fear of clustered holes, like holes in some plants, bread, crepes or honeycombs. It’s a safe bet Ally will handle that about as well as she’s been handling the clowns.

The actual cult part of things has only been hinted at. Hopefully, next week’s episode will provide some answers.

Should you watch it?: Yes! (Unless you have coulrophobia or trypophobia) There are still plenty of questions to be raised, likely before any get answered. And, if the shows history tells us anything, it’s that there are many twists and turns.
