Intramural esports FIFA team accidentally bans female players By Delaney Allen @DelaneyAllen0

Several female students were reportedly barred from signing up for an esports FIFA tournament hosted by the Colorado State University Intramural Sports team last week.

Addy Morris, second-year marketing and management major, and Callie Marshall, second-year human development and family studies major, reportedly tried to sign up for a FIFA tournament, a popular soccer video game, hosted by CSU’s IM recreation team.

When they attempted to sign up, an error message appeared, reading “This League is restricted to a different gender, please change the league.” Morris reported she had to reach out by email and phone call, and even then, she didn’t hear an immediate response back.

“They called me back, but by then, there was only one spot left,” Morris said. “They tried to tell us only one of us could play, but I told them that wasn’t fair, because we would’ve had spots if we weren’t restricted by gender.”

Each year, the Alumni Association collects nominations from current students and alumni for who they believe was a teacher or professor that truly made an impact on their lives. This year, the winners of the Best Teacher Award come from everywhere, ranging from liberal arts to natural sciences. Mike Humphrey - College of Liberal Arts, Department of Journalism and Media Communication For Mike Humphrey, teaching provides the opportunity to never stop learning. Humphrey, who teaches online storytelling and digital engagement classes, draws off of his decades in the field to teach future journalists about the constantly-shifting industry of news writing. “I still think a lot about how I can help you learn what will get you ready for an ever-changing media landscape,” Humphrey said. “A lot of it is about tools, like learning how to write and doing video and audio, but I’ve realized that there’s something about the brain that has to happen too. That is the key tool when it comes to things that are constantly changing on you.” Humphrey’s colleague-to-colleague teaching style, which he developed from years of working in a community newsroom, helps him relate to, as well as learn from, his students.

CITY

Troxell wins third mayoral term, women win all open council seats By Ravyn Cullor & Samantha Ye @CSUCollegian

Unofficial results for the 2019 Fort Collins local election were released around 10:15 p.m. Tuesday night. Official results will be released April 12. Mayor Wade Troxell will be finishing out his final term as Fort Collins mayor. Voters overwhelmingly re-elected the incumbent by 96.6% of the vote, against competitor Michael Pruznick. Having served on City Council for 12 years, Troxell has worked on many of the changes the City had undergone and in his final years on Council, will be taking on several more. These include rolling out municipal broadband, adopting policies for affordable housing (such as right-sizing instead of U+2) and moving the City closer to its carbon neutral goals established in the Climate Action Plan. Neither Troxel nor Pruznick could not be reached for comment on election night. Ballot Issues The Keep Fort Collins Great Tax will be sticking around as voters said yes to renewing this 0.085% dedicated sales tax and making most of it permanent. It costs 85 cents for every $100 spent. The entire tax was previously set to expire in 2020, but now

only 0.025% of it will expire in 2030, unless voters renew it. The tax funds basic City services, mainly street repair and transportation, police and fire fighting services, and parks and recreation. It brought in over $31 million in 2018 and is expected to bring in $34 million in 2021.

BALLOT ISSUE RESULTS ■ Keep Fort Collins Great Tax

Passed by 61.3% (19823 Votes) ■ City Council Full Time Pay Rejected By 58.5% (18218 Votes) A portion of the renewed tax, as dictated by the ballot initiative, will go specifically toward the Poudre Fire Authority. Otherwise, it will not be much different from the KFCG tax of the last 10 years. City Council, too, will not be changing from a monetary standpoint. Voters declined the citizen initiative to make City Council a full-time paid position with benefits with 58.5% no vote. Councilmembers will continue to make $815 a month, adjusted for inflation, and the mayor will make $1,224 a month. Additional work costs are compensated, but current councilmembers have said they think of it more as a stipend. The initiative was an at-

tempt to raise the council wage to the area median income of roughly $60,000 a year. The intention was to make running for Council more feasible for those on low incomes, give councilmembers more time and proper compensation to do their City work, and require transparency of their activities. District Seats District 1: Susan Gutowsky Susan Gutowsky retained the District 1 seat after being appointed in January. Gutowsky took the seat of Bob Overbeck after he was elected to County Assessor in 2018. She also worked in Poudre School District for 28 years prior to her political work. She won with 46.95% of the vote for her district, followed by Glenn Haas with 31.30% and Joe Somodi with 21.75%, as of election night. Gutowsky couldn’t be reached for comment on election night. District 2: Julie Pignataro (as of Tuesday night) Rising from the most crowded and expensive race of the season is Julie Pignataro who will be representing District 2 for the next two years, as of the election results around 10:15 p.m. Tuesday night. Pignataro and Noah Hutchinson were only separated by 30 votes as of the release of results, and the winner may change when official results are released on April 12.

Pignataro and Hutchinson were caught in outsider spending sprees for their campaign which poured over $50,000 into the District 2 race, according to The Coloradoan. Pignataro’s platform was based on smart growth, which addresses the issues of the City and interconnected problems. She is for affordable housing and protecting the environment. Read more about her positions in The Collegian’s past coverage. Pignataro couldn’t be reached for comment on election night.

District 4: Kristin Stephens Kristin Stephens won her unopposed race in District 4. This will be her final term on City Council. Before the appointment of Susan Gutowsky, Stephens was the only woman on Council. She also works in the statistics department at Colorado State University. Stephens says she hopes to continue the work she has done for affordable housing and environmental issues in her final term.

CAMPUS

Students can take faculty out for a free meal every Wednesday By Laura Studley @laurastudley_

On Wednesdays, we wear pink — and take Colorado State University faculty out to lunch. The Complimentary Wednesday Lunch Program gives students the option to take a faculty member to the dining halls, excluding Ram’s Horn Express, Durrell Express or Braiden RamWich, for a free meal. This program does not take up students’ guest passes or weekly swipes. Housing and Dining Services was looking for new opportunities to connect students with faculty in a more relaxed setting, said Teresa Metzger, the creator of the program and assistant director for academic initiatives. “When a student goes into office hours, they have this concern, or it feels a certain way. And so I think that (this program) makes (meeting) a little more casual,” Metzger said. “We really want (students) to see (the dining centers) as a place to get things done, much like you do at the library or the LSC. We wanted to kind of keep that going by offering this service.” Beginning two years ago, the complimentary Wednesday lunch program has brought in

FIFA >> from page 1 At the time, Morris and Marshall reported they were the only females in the tournament. “I thought that it was kind of insane to be discriminated against because of gender in 2019, especially over a video game,” Morris said. “I think there should be equality, whatever sport or gender. I don’t think that should really be an issue.” Marshall said that she is interested in IM Sports as a way to meet new friends and compete with other video game players.

“I thought that it was kind of insane to be discriminated against because of gender in 2019, especially over a video game.” ADDY MORRIS SECOND-YEAR MARKETING AND MANAGEMENT MAJOR

“I thought it would be fun to do the tournament; I thought I could compete with that,” Marshall said. “When I saw the message, it was a little infuriating.” IM Leagues, the third-party

“Food generally is a natural connector with people, and in that relaxed setting, and really feeling like it’s their space and their time and to also have an extensive time with the students.” JESS DYRDAHL PREVIOUS LEADERSHIP COORDINATOR FOR THE PRESIDENT’S LEADERSHIP PROGRAM

“We had 20 people who used it the first year,” Metzger said. “We bumped up to 50 the year after. We’ll probably get into the 50 range again this year.” Seeking to foster connection and genuine interaction between students and faculty, the Complimentary Wednesday Lunch Program encourages students with a meal plan to utilize the opportunity. Programs, like the Presidencompany that CSU uses to organize IM Sport registration, had apparently experienced a “technology glitch” that had prevented non-male students from signing up for the FIFA tournament via their Facebook page. “Any individual can play any event in intramural sports; wherever they feel most honored in their gender identity, they can play. That’s our policy as campus rec,” said Brit Heiring, marketing and communications manager for Intramural Sports at CSU. “From our end of things, this was truly an unfortunate technology glitch.” Heiring explained that, from the IM team’s side, the league was open to all genders — male, female and nonbinary alike. “We absolutely invite any student of any gender to sign up — not just men and women, but trans folk and nonbinary people as well,” said Heiring. Heiring reports that the CSU IM team is working diligently with IM Leagues to ensure that future glitches do not leave students feeling excluded. “Technology sometimes betrays us,” Heiring said. “We are trying to work really hard to make sure this doesn’t happen again. It’s awful to try to sign up for something, especially esports, that has been traditionally dominated by men, and be told you can’t.” Delaney Allen can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Students can also swipe in academic support coordinators, advisors and coordinators with learning communities. The program serves as a tool to help open lines of communication with students. Making them feel comfortable is a priority. It helps build rapport, said Rebecca Villalpando, director of outreach and support. “When we make our students comfortable, they are more likely to open up and really get to sharing their stories,” Villalpando said. “But also being more comfortable with identifying how we can assist them.” Laura Studley can be reached at news@collegian.com.

District 6: Emily Gorgol Emily Gorgol will be representing District 6 which encompasses Campus West and most neighborhoods north of Colorado State University. She won with 48.71% of the vote, which was nearly double what her opponents, Fred Kirsch and Lori Brunswig, received. Gorgol ran on a platform of bringing new perspectives to City Council. She hopes to push for more aggressive options for affordable housing and take a regional approach to the issue overall. Transportation and the environment will also be within her top priorities. She also hopes to incorporate a wide variety of resident voices and bring in more citizen perspectives to Council, something she believes the City could be doing more of. Gorgol could not be reached for comment on election night. Samantha Ye and Ravyn Cullor can be reached at news@ collegian.com.

New food delivery service to compete with Grubhub, drop prices By Corbin Reiter @CorbinReiter

Starting in April, a new food delivery service that offers items from local vendors will be available in the Fort Collins area. NoCo Nosh is a new service that hopes to compete with other for-profit models in the Fort Collins area, Jon Sewell, board chair of NoCo Nosh, wrote in an email to The Collegian. There are already several third-party delivery services in Fort Collins, including Grubhub and DoorDash. NoCo Nosh seeks to serve a different purpose.

RESTAURANTS AFFILIATED WITH NOCO NASH ■ Walrus Ice Cream ■ Spoons ■ Big Al’s Burgers and Dogs ■ Blue Agave Grill ■ And 32 others

Large national chains continue to raise prices and do not represent a sustainable business model for smaller businesses that cannot afford to expand on their own, Sewell wrote. “All of these models aim to charge about 30% for their services, offer substandard customer service and act as a third-party interface between restaurants and their customers,” Sewell wrote. Several restaurants are already involved in the establishment of NoCo Nosh, including Walrus Ice Cream, Spoons, Big Al’s Burgers and Dogs, and Blue Agave Grill. Thirty-two restaurants have affiliated with NoCo Nosh, but it is anticipated that more will join. “You can walk into any local business and see the owner working right alongside the employees, and it matters,” said Lisa Paugh, owner of Walrus Ice Cream. “Customer service matters and I don’t think GrubHub has good customer service and I think that their fees are outrageous. We need to stand together and make a difference in our community.” NoCo Nosh is attempting to change the previously established for-profit model of delivery services into a “public utility,” Sewell wrote. Local businesses will be able to offer delivery services without large commission prices from national chains, and customer service guidelines will be established and monitored by the individual restaurants. NoCo Nosh is not the first it-

eration of this plan, as a similar co-op format was implemented in Iowa City, Sewell wrote. There, it has been very successful in its goals with many restaurants being added to the service.

“You can walk into any local business and see the owner working right alongside the employees and it matters. Customer service matters and I don’t think GrubHub has good customer service and I think that their fees are outrageous and we need to stand together and make a difference in our community.” LISA PAUGH OWNER OF WALRUS ICE CREAM

“We came to Fort Collins

because some restaurant owners heard of our experience in Iowa and asked us if we could help them set up a co-op model of delivery in the northern Colorado region,” Sewell wrote. The market in Fort Collins lends itself well to the addition of a lower cost delivery service due to the diversity of the present restaurants and the large college population. Colorado State University students are largely impacted by the decision to create this new service, as they make up a large portion of the consumer base. “I would use a delivery service more often if the delivery charges were lower,” said Lauren Thomas, a sophomore biology student. Paugh said NoCo Nosh’s coop model is something a local business like her could get behind. “Their fees are too high and they are literally driving (up) our cost,” Paugh said. “So we decided we need to do something about it.” Corbin Reiter can be reached at news@collegian.com.

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Why we haven’t reported on student discrimination posts yet Haley Candelario @H_Candelario98

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. Haley Candelario is the Editor-in-Chief of The Collegian. Dear readers, As some of you may have seen while scrolling through your Facebook feed, two students at Colorado State University posted about their experiences with discrimination on campus within the last week. Jessica Balasuriya, a senior animal sciences major, posted about her experience with discrimination as a Ram Handler on her Facebook page. Anarely Marquez-Carranco, a senior ethnic studies major, wrote about her experience with discrimination as an employee with CSU’s Office of Admissions. Like many of you, I saw

these posts while scrolling through my Facebook feed. I heard students in my classes and around campus ask each other if they saw Balasuriya and Marquez-Carranco’s posts. Students who work in The Collegian newsroom discussed the posts too. We want to let our readers know that we are looking into both stories. We have not reported or shared either story because we don’t want to rush our reporting. If we rush our process, we wouldn’t publish a well-written story, and we could face larger consequences if our reporting is wrong. We care about sharing the experiences of both students and about telling a complete, accurate story. Balasuriya and Marquez-Carranco bravely shared their experiences as employees of two major organizations on campus: the CSU Ram Handling Team and the Office of Admissions. We admire that these students had the courage to speak out about discrimination claims at the University, and we look forward to reporting on their experiences in the

NOPE

coming weeks. As journalists, we must take the proper time to verify the statements made by Balasuriya and Marquez-Carranco, and we must ask the Ram Handling Team and the Office of Admissions to comment on their statements. We could face legal consequences for any inaccuracy we publish that could result in severe harm to the Ram Handling Team or the Office of Admissions.

“We care about sharing the experiences of both students and about telling a complete, accurate story.” While our personal feelings at The Collegian and your feelings toward both organizations may have changed after reading Balasuriya and Marquez-Carranco’s posts, we as a publication cannot ignore that the Ram Handling Team and the Office of Admissions need a chance to respond to the ac-

cusations made by Balasuriya and Marquez-Carranco. I’ve received emails and messages from many people inside and outside the campus community, urging that we publish Balasuriya and Marquez-Carranco’s posts in full. As journalists, we cannot do that. It would not tell the full story, and we could face legal consequences for defamation or libel. Libel, in the state of Colorado, is defined as a written statement that is false and causes harm to someone or has the potential to cause harm to someone. If The Collegian were to publish Balasuriya and Marquez-Carranco’s posts in full, we could be sued for libel by the Ram Handling Team and the Office of Admissions for neglecting to get a statement from them about Balasuriya and Marquez-Carranco’s experiences. Failing to make an effort to get in contact with the Ram Handling Team and the Office of Admissions not only sets The Collegian up for serious repercussions, but it also falls below journalistic expecta-

tions for the content we want to provide to our readers. The Collegian exists to serve as an educational opportunity for all students who come to work for us, so it is our duty to teach everyone who walks into our office how to properly report on issues that concern our campus community. If we fail to teach students how to report — and report fairly and accurately — we fail you, as readers, and we fail journalism. We hope you understand that we are actively working in our offices to report on Balasuriya and Marquez-Carranco’s experiences, and we hope you understand our hesitation with running the posts without giving the Ram Handling Team and the Office of Admissions a chance to respond. If you have further concerns, I am happy to discuss further with you.

Respectfully, Haley Candelario Haley Candelario can be reached at editor@collegian.com.

COLLEGIAN COLUMNIST

It’s sad, but we need Sexual Assault Awareness Month Shay Rego @shay_rego

Editor’s Note: The views expressed in the following column are those of the writer only and do not necessarily represent the views of The Collegian or its editorial board. Trigger warning: This column contains graphic content pertaining to rape and sexual assault. Please read at your own discretion. Disbelief. Fear. Pain. That’s the world I lived in for years after my rape. I now live with post-traumatic stress disorder as nightmarish memories replay themselves as I walk about my daily routine. Sleep is no reprieve from these thoughts either. I harbor feelings of weakness and questioned what I did to deserve this. I tried to run from it, ignoring that this was now a part of me. It

only made things worse. Until the day I die, this pain will always haunt me. My rapist selfishly took my life from me. He didn’t care about me, he cared about using me. I now know I am not a victim, but a survivor. April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. While society claims it does its best to bring awareness to and end sexual assault, it’s not enough. While this topic should be covered daily, for April, 50 Shades of Shay is delving into the reality of sexual assault, from personal experiences to the taboo and shrouded sub-topics. Most sexual assaults occur during our time in college, predominantly in younger age groups. It’s important to become educated on topics relating to sexual assault, such as rape culture, triggers, consent and ways we can prevent rape. First, it’s important to have a basic understanding of sexual assault and some statistics relating to it. According to the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network, there are about 321,500 victims of rape and sexual assault every year in the United States. Every two minutes, someone becomes a victim of sexual assault. Younger people, ages 18-34, are at higher

risk of becoming victims of sexual assault. One out of six women and one out of 10 men have been victim to attempted or completed sexual assault. Men in college are five times more at risk to be victims of sexual assault than men not in college. Most rapes are not even done by strangers; it is usually someone already known.

“To talk to a support specialist, call CSU’s Victim Assistance Team Hotline (970) 4924242.” Although the particulars vary from state to state, rape and sexual assault are no longer divided terms under Colorado law. Colorado law defines sexual assault as “knowingly sexually penetrating or sexually intruding upon a victim.” There are varying degrees by which this can be done, all of which are detailed under Colorado Revised Statutes Sections 183-402: Sexual Assault. Under Colorado law, the minimum penalty for catching a sexual assault charge is a class one misdemeanor charge with

jail time ranging from six months to two years and a fine of $500 to $5,000. The maximum is a class four felony charge with four to 12 years in prison along with a $2,000 to $500,000 fine and three years mandatory parole. Every outcome depends on varying factors directly correlated to the conditions on how the sexual assault occurred. Colorado State University’s 2017 crime report showed a reported 14 rapes on campus property, 13 rapes in the residence dorms and one rape on non-campus property. However, this is an inaccurate representation of how many students are truly affected by sexual assault. Rapes are largely underreported. As of 2018, there are 33,413 total undergraduate students on campus. It’s estimated that three out of four rapes never get reported. To believe the report that there were only 14 rapes on-campus out of 33,413 existing students is entirely unrealistic. Sexual assault goes deeper than just some statistics from a website. It comes down to truly understanding the longterm mental effects some of us suffer through after a rape. Victims of sexual assault usually experience long-term effects following the event such as higher

risks of anxiety, depression and PTSD, as surveys done by RAINN suggest. Ninety-four percent of people that are raped experience PTSD immediately following the event and 30% continue to have PTSD months later. Thirty-three percent of people raped commit suicide and 13% attempt suicide. The psychological processing that sequences a rape is incomprehensible and unexplainable. Some people don’t seem to understand that, some people can’t seem to express empathy without understanding. Here’s a tip: stop trying to understand it. All anyone ever asks for is support. Society tries to hide the reality of rape because it’s a taboo that paints people as vile beings. We survivors shall be silenced no more. Our truth deserves to be heard so that all may realize this reality. Colorado State University’s Women and Gender Advocacy Center is a great resource on-campus if you or a loved one needs help. To talk to a support specialist, call their Victim Assistance Team Hotline (970) 4924242 to have an anonymous and confidential one-on-one conversation.

ASCSU. Within these roles, I’ve assisted Syron Sullivan’s U+2 initiative, updated the website and helped new student organizations receive funding through ASCSU. The primary issue my campaign seeks to resolve is increasing ASCSU’s marketing. Not just marketing what ASCSU is doing, but what ASCSU can do for you. Whether you are a student org hosting an event or a single student with an idea, ASCSU can do something for you. For example, our current president Tristan Syron told me that his inspiration behind writing the bill that installed more water bottle refilling stations

came from a random student in class mentioning the need. Syron heard this, realized that it was possible, and it happened. Right now, most students don’t hear about bills until they are already voted on. I hold a similar mentality when it comes to student fees. It is time for the average student to get their share. Did you know that it is possible for your student organization to receive up to $15,000 for your event? Did you know you can write a bill and pass a law and it is probably easier than you think? Also, I will make it easy for students to locate upcoming legislation and provide their

Baseball stays hot against Colorado School of Mines By Tyler Meguire @TMeguire

Colorado State baseball knocked Colorado School of Mines ot of the park in a seven-inning game on Tuesday, winning 7-3. This matchup was a makeup game from the series March 10 which was cancelled due to weather. CSU won the two games they were able to play in March and were hungry to sweep Mines in the three-game series. Starting pitcher Blake Buhrer was hopeful to have a good outing to make up for some shaky performances. “I felt great [before the game],” Buhrer said. “The last starts were a little shaky but tonight I had my stuff.” Buhrer started the game off strong with two quick strikeouts on a total of eight pitches giving him confidence for the rest of the game. “I knew I could locate my fastball tonight,” Buhrer said. “I utilized all my pitches well tonight.” The Ram’s offense started the ball game slowly, scoring their first run of the game in

the bottom of the third inning. Brandon DeLay scored Jared Van Vark with a ground ball hit to short stop. Buhrer let in a run in the top of the fourth and two in the top of the fifth. CSU responded with a one-out, three RBI triple by DeLay. “I just wanted to hit the ball hard,” DeLay said. “There were less than two outs, so I wanted to put something in the air and deep. It was pretty sweet [to hit the triple]. It was a pretty crucial time in the game to get a big hit and get those runs.” Mines was quick to make a pitching change after the triple. That did not help them as DeLay scored on a wild pitch. Buhrer finished the game after six innings. He had seven strikeouts, gave up three walks and allowed one run on five hits. DeLay finished the game going 1-4 with one hit and three RBIs. “I’m feeling a lot more confident at the plate than I was over spring break in Arizona,” DeLay said. “The good pitching down there kind of put me in my place. I came back here seeing the pitches with confidence and hitting the ball well. I feel

good up there.” Coach Troy Tolar was very happy to get another impressive win — now the Rams’ fifthstraight victory. “It is what we expect and what we have to do,” Tolar said. “We talked about it before the game, sometimes it’s hard when you know you have already beat a team twice ... to not get complacent with it. We still have to show up and be the hardest working team every day.” The Rams’ team chemistry has improved since the start of the season and it shows on the field. “We always see [the team chemistry get better] when we go to that Arizona trip,” Tolar said. “It is really a time for the team to grow together. This team has done a good job of having good chemistry and coming together.” CSU will not return to City Park Field for a couple of weeks. The Rams take on Colorado Mesa in Grand Junction April 6 and April 7. Then they battle the rival University of Colorado in Boulder on April 13 and April 14.

Teachers >> from page 1 “I don’t think I know much more than students,” Humphrey said. “A normal classroom is 36 people, and the average age is 20. That’s 720 years of lived experience in the room. If we add that all up together, that’s a lot of wisdom in the room, so why wouldn’t we open that up?” Whether it is teaching in the classroom, advising the Rocky Mountain Student Media Corporation or writing for Forbes Magazine, Humphrey is always seeking new ways to empathize with the world around him and the people in it. “I think about who the audience is, who are you when you’re the audience and what you want,” he said. “Once you think about those things, like how do we tell facts that matter, but do it in ways that connect people together and make them feel like they are a part of the community that we are creating around our content.” Jon Firooz - College of Business, Department of Marketing For Jon Firooz, a professor in the College of Business, the fact that he was even in the position to get the Best Teacher Award was a surprise. “I never had an intention of becoming a teacher of any kind,” Firooz said. “When (a teaching opportunity) came my way, I had spent many years working in the industry, and I saw it as an opportunity to

share some of the experiences that I had learned with future business leaders. That gives me the motivation I need to do the best possible job that I can.” Firooz’s experience is spread across many years in all fields of business imaginable. He started his career as an engineer at Hewlett-Packard before moving into engineering management, business development, acquisitions, marketing and research and development. During this time, he decided to take a position in a smaller Fort Collins company. “I grew up in this area, and it was nice to get back home,” Firooz said. An old manager from Hewlett-Packard, who was a professor at Colorado State University, contacted him about teaching a course that would cover “a little bit of everything you need to know about business,” and Firooz’s history put him in a perfect position. “He said, ‘The problem we’re running into is we’ve got a bunch of great research professors that are experts in their area, but they don’t know anything outside of their area,’” Firooz said. “I said, ‘Alright;’ it was only one class. I could probably kinda work it in, but then a month before the semester started, I got a call from the head of the marketing department.” Another course was without a teacher three weeks before the semester started, and Firooz was offered that position as well. “That’s when I said, ‘I guess

this is going to be more of a thing,’” he said. “It isn’t all that different from management, they’re just younger and there are more of them. I gave it a shot, and I loved it.” Dawn Mallette - College of Health and Human Sciences, School of Education Dawn Mallette, an assistant professor in the School of Education and coordinator of the Family and Consumer Sciences program at CSU, describes her role as being a “teacher educator.” “I feel like my role is as a mentor/teacher who helps (students) achieve their goals and dreams,” Mallette said. “Making connections for them, making sure that they’re staying on track, providing them with knowledge and skills to be in their future careers successfully and things to that effect.” Mallette was nominated by alumni from an FCS class. To her, the award is just a sign that she’s making a difference. “The Best Teacher Award shows that I’ve had an impact on (students’) lives and their careers, that I am someone that is significant in their professional development and someone who is there as a continued mentor, resource and friend as they move into their careers,” Mallette said. “I was honored; I was humbled. My purpose for what I do is that I want to make an impact, and I guess it reinforced that maybe I am.” Matthew Rhodes - College of Natural Sciences, Department of Psychology Matthew Rhodes, a pro-

fessor of psychology, believes that he was nominated for the Best Teacher Award because he’s spent a lot of time thinking about the best learning strategies. He’s a cognitive psychologist, meaning that he studies how we interpret the mind: decision-making, perception and memory, to name a few aspects. “Cognitive psychologists do a lot of thinking about learning and memory,” Rhodes said. “My goal in the class is I want the class to be engaging. When I was an undergrad, I knew that (teaching) is what I wanted to do, so I was taking mental notes on what I liked in class and what I didn’t. One of my general policies is that I never do anything in class that I wouldn’t have enjoyed as a student.” Rhodes takes issue with the way that college courses teach their students and strives to change that in his own courses and promote that for other educators. “A lot of courses, we go at a breakneck pace, try to cram as much as we can in — that’s not good for learning,” Rhodes said. “Learning is better when information is given to us in short bursts over time. You talk about one topic in class, and then we never hit on that topic again.” Getting the award was an honor for Rhodes. “I actually find it very humbling, because the campus is littered with great instructors, and I think I just happened to have one or two students say a couple of nice things about me,” Rhodes said. “I’m in the company of a number of fantastic people.”

Christopher Snow - Walter Scott, Jr. College of Engineering, Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering Christopher Snow, who primarily teaches sophomores and juniors in the department of chemical and biological engineering, has a unique approach to teaching traditionally difficult subjects like chemical engineering and physical chemistry. “There’s a lot of material out there, and it affects so many things from laser pointers to computer discs,” Snow said. “There’s no shortage of real-world examples that we get to talk about. I think it’s fortunate that, with these subjects, when you look around you every day, there are things which relate back to the subject matter.” By pointing out how scientific concepts relate back to everyday experiences, Snow hopes to connect the subjects to the real world. Snow gives credit for his teaching style to a professor he had back in his undergraduate years. “I had an organic chemistry teacher who took what could otherwise be a pretty rough subject and made that a real pleasure,” Snow said. “I’d like to think I’ve absorbed some lessons from that teacher.” Allison White - College of Liberal Arts, Department of Political Science Allison White could not be reached for comment.

COLLEGIAN REVIEWS

Hinge is Tinder with a cuter layout

Imperial 9.49

By Miranda Moses @mirandasrad

12pk cans Aggie Discount Liquor 429 Canyon Ave. 482-1968

The popular dating app Tinder, has aged like boxed wine left in the car overnight after themed frat party — grosser over time, but many of us are still drinking it. With a notorious reputation for hookups rather than producing healthy, long-lasting relationships, a slew of apps have been curated to combat the modern-day absence of romance. Recently, there has been a newly popular app thrown into the mix called Hinge, and Colorado State University students are now joining other Northern Colorado singles in scrolling through vapid profiles to procrastinate on things they should actually be doing. Hinge, in its composition and anti-swipe dictations, is an app that existed since 2013 but has been relaunched to promote conversation in a unique and charming way. Users are asked to provide six photos for their profile and answer three random questions of their choosing. These questions range anywhere from “Where would you want to go on a first date?” to “If I still had an AIM, my away message would be...” Information such as location, education, political affiliation, frequency of drug use and whether or not you want to have kids can also be displayed on your profile. Potential soulmates scroll through an old-school interface, and instead of swiping right, they can “like” certain aspects of your profile or

leave a comment. All likes and comments show up on your profile, and choosing to reply to these flirtatious comments is how you match. While the dynamic of this app certainly promotes creative conversation, it’s clouded by the fact that many people in the CSU area who are using the app are the same people who are on Tinder. Their profiles may not suck as much as Tinder users, who often put “Add me on snap” as their sole description, but their intentions of hooking up with you in the middle of the Rec Room dance floor are still present. This also means that the men we have all affectionately nominated as “Fish Dudes” do in fact transcend to all dating apps, and we did not leave them on Tinder to show off their successful and confusing catches to whatever audience they think this appeals to. All in all, we are all shifting to the next best thing. You will match with the girl who ghosted you on Tinder and she will continue to not reply.

To differentiate themselves from their biggest competitor, Tinder, Hinge removed swiping, timers on matches and some other features as well. If you are looking to download this app despite the risk of matching with your ex for the fifth time, I would suggest you go into the venture with humility. Don’t be afraid to embrace the ridiculousness and try to provide as much authenticity on your profile as possible. Your unique answers to profile questions are the catalyst for unique conversations to match. For inspiration, I would like to leave you with some of my favorite profile answers that lead me to conversations that didn’t make me cringe. “I recently discovered that... White Claws are also known as ‘bad boy La Croix.’” “I want someone who...Is the yee to my haw.” “The highlight of my day is usually...logging into Club Penguin.” Miranda Moses can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com
