Tony Frank delivers his final Fall Address By Matt Bailey @mattbailey760

After announcing he would step down as president of Colorado State University by July 2019, Tony Frank delivered his tenth and final Fall Address Wednesday, speaking about the ten years of his presidency and the future of the University.

In his address, Frank looked back on the successes CSU had in the past decade as well as issues that may have been overlooked during his presidency. “Ten short years — a decade that has passed far too quickly, a decade where it has been my privilege to be here and work with all of you,” Frank said. “And now after ten years, we’ve

earned the opportunity to look back. And it’s quite a view.” CSU Provost and Executive Vice President Rick Miranda explained the significance of the annual Fall Address as a University tradition. “It brings the University community together to hear from the president about the current state of the University

and the outlook for the coming academic year,” Miranda said. Frank said when he became president, the University stood at the edge of the Great Recession without knowing how big the economic abyss was. “I mention that because ten years later, we stand at a very different situation,” Frank said. “And it’s sometimes difficult to

think back and remember what those early days and years were like, and yet they forged this institution’s philosophy for the last decade.” Frank said since he became president, institutional financial aid investment has increased by 337 percent.

Cornell William Brooks speaks on community at Diversity Symposium By Audrey Weiss @Audkward

The Office for Diversity at Colorado State University carved out four days worth of events for this year’s Diversity Symposium, touching on everything from the equity gap to issues of race in Disney films. Cornell William Brooks joined these discussions on Wednesday as a keynote speaker. Brooks, an ordained minister, civil rights attorney, social justice activist, coalition builder and writer, gave three lessons for which he believed the CSU community could learn from: looking for role models, loving deeply and leading boldly. The Office for Diversity, in collaboration with Ram Events, hosted the event. Mary Ontiveros, the vice president for diversity introduced Brooks, commemorating him for his work as President and CEO of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People from 2014-2017, among other things. “I want to extend my appreciation to the Colorado State University family for this opportunity to come and share with you during this diversity week,” Brooks said, specifically thanking Ontiveros. Brooks called the current era’s goings-on a “peculiar moment in American history.” Specifically,

Brooks referenced misogyny, sexual assaults, gun violence and student activism. “In our nation’s history … all across our country, we see students taking up the most difficult public policy challenges of our time,” Brooks said. “This is a moment in which a generation of students has declared a Shakespearean season of justice seeking.” Brooks commemorated the work of youths in social justice movements. He said that now is a time for people in academic communities to look within and be mindful of the political climate in our nation. Brooks said his own role models were high school and college students — young people who demonstrated persistence and determination. Brooks stressed that these role models could be found nearby. “There’s role models all around you while being in a college and university setting,” Brooks said. “The students around you who are studying … challenges? Admire them.” Brooks’ second lesson, love deeply, aimed at controversial discussions. In order to have these conversations, people on both sides must be respectful and loving of one another, regardless of whether or not they like one another. Brooks said the conversations must happen through love and har-

mony to reflect your goal. “(Exercise) a degree of civility,” Brooks said. “If you want to talk about how brave you are as an activist… don’t tell me what you are willing to do unless you are willing to love.” Brooks’ third lesson was to lead boldly. He described this as leading with the mind and body. He said the world needs leaders who are willing to do their research and due diligence to be the most informed and the best prepared. Brooks suggested students confront others, but more importantly, confront themselves, and carry out “intellectual honesty.” He referenced President Donald Trump’s response to the Charlottesville Protest in which he blamed “both sides.” “That’s not the kind of leadership we need,” Brooks said. “We need leaders who are willing to call out wrong as wrong. That’s where we are as a country.” To close his speech, Brooks spoke the lyrics of a song and poem by James Weldon Johnson, stressing the last line, “Let us march on till victory is won.” When asked how a person might go about leading and helping those oppressed by hate speech that falls under protected speech, Brooks suggested speaking up for them to make sure no one feels iso-

lated. “When we hear people being marginalized… it has to be called out,” Brooks said. “Create a community of support.” Brooks also suggested that when a leader brings people together, the challenge becomes creating these communities of love and support. It is important to understand how to focus in on individual’s strengths to make tasks feel specific, rather than general, Brooks said. According to Brooks, acknowledging the past is important because, without an appreciation for what has already happened, there is no future. His suggestion

for leading through education is to encourage one another and create communities of both instruction and inspiration. “(Ask) people to be brave,” Brooks said. “We need to create spaces where we encourage people to be grown up intellectuals. What’re you afraid of?” For interested students, faculty and staff, the Diversity Symposium will have more events and discussions on Thursday from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Audrey Weiss can be reached at news@collegian.com .

Address >> from page 1 “There is not a unit on this campus, from athletics to the performing arts, that is not in better shape than it was ten years ago,” Frank said. Frank also said the $300 million research expenditure barrier, the money spent on creative work and research undertaken by the University, was broken for the first time ten years ago, and has been broken every year since. “I do think it’s important to pause for a moment when we come together collectively and celebrate certain accomplishments because they are the results of all of your hard work,” Frank said. Frank said efforts to diversify the student population stagnated ten years ago. At that time, 13 percent of the student population was made up of diverse students, up from only 11 percent recorded the decade before. Now, diverse students represent more than 20 percent of the incoming class, Frank said. “As an international student, it means a lot to me to feel included and respected at CSU, and he always speaks about the value of diversity which makes me prouder to be here,” said Debora Nunes, a CSU economics Ph.D. student. For the first time, Frank also announced that the $1 billion goal of the State Your Purpose campaign has been reached oneand-a-half years ahead of schedule. The campaign was launched to increase the number of scholarships the University can give, invest in infrastructure and increase CSU’s endowment, according to the website. “We brought that campaign to a conclusion over budget ahead of time, and immediately set a new goal and started a new campaign, the State Your Purpose campaign, that had an audacious goal, some might even have said a ludicrous goal of raising one billion dollars,” Frank said. “That success is due to the hard work of a lot of people.” In the midst of these successes, Frank also talked about problems the University has faced that might have been overlooked during the past decade. “CSU is the sort of place that will look ahead, and when we do, we see serious, substantive and important work that needs our attention,” Frank said. “What’s of most interest to me are the things I might not see. What opportunities were missed. What priorities didn’t we advance by not pushing hard enough.” Frank said in his time, 6,400 people never graduated, 202 people are no longer alive and 55 people committed suicide.

“What dreams were lost?” Frank asked. “What potential went unfulfilled?” Courtney Carlisle, a senior business administration major, explained the impact Frank’s acknowledgment of these people had on her. “I’ve personally have had friends who have passed away at CSU, and so I think it was really great that he honored them in that way and acknowledged that that’s an issue on campus,” Carlisle said. Frank said these are serious issues that need to be addressed in the future. “Our time is not yet over,” Frank said. “We have breath in our lungs, let us use our voice. There is work left undone that need not be left undone and it is not the CSU way to turn away, because it’s the CSU way to lean in, to stride, to achieve, to excel.” In closing, Frank talked about the importance the student, faculty and administrative bodies of the University. Frank said the responsibility of these bodies is to give grace, support, patience as well as impatience to the next president. “The success of Colorado State University has less to do with who occupies the president’s chair than the people who teach our classes, run our research laboratories and who we admit and graduate from this University,” Frank said. This message was especially important to junior chemical and biological engineering major Kyra Jensen.

“It was really powerful that he mentioned that the person who sits in the president’s chair is not really the one who makes the University,” Jensen said. “I’m optimistic about the future and who will come later.” As Frank prepares to conclude his presidency and transition into his role as full-time chancellor, biochemistry sophomore Mia Salem reflected on the impact Frank has made on CSU. “What I took out is that we

still need to keep improving, so it’s our job as a student body to help improve our campus,” Salem said. “While it is sad that he’s leaving, I do believe that he will leave CSU in a very good place.” Frank concluded his address with a quote from President Abraham Lincoln, one he used in the very first email he released to the student and faculty bodies after taking on the role of CSU president 10 years ago: “I do the very best I can, the very

best I know how. And I mean to keep on doing so until the end.” “I start my last year as the president of Colorado State University with knowing that I have done my best and grateful for the immense honor and privilege it has been to do this work alongside all of you,” Frank said. “And I mean to keep on doing so until the end,” Matt Bailey can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Students question ASCSU about use of student fees to host Dennis Prager By Stuart Smith @stuartsmithnews

Several current and former Colorado State University students went to the floor of the student government’s senate Wednesday night to express their displeasure at the use of student fees to bring Dennis Prager to campus Oct. 29. The Board for Student Organization Funding approved Turning Point USA’s request to fund Prager’s visit several weeks ago, allocating $13,999 to CSU’s chapter of TPUSA. The Senate did not need to be consulted on the funding, as Senate approval for BSOF proposals is only needed for amounts of $14,000 or more. TPUSA requested a dollar under the threshold. Luce Stone, a junior anthropology major and employee at the Women and Gender Advocacy Center, was the first to speak about Prager’s upcoming visit. Stone, concerned with various views of Prager on the LGBTQ community, Islam and women’s issues, questioned whether bringing someone who has those views should be brought to campus. “Free speech and debate are key parts of college campuses, but do we want to host a speaker that actively wishes harm towards people of marginalized identities?” Stone asked. “Is engaging in debate worth risking the safety and well-being of our queer, Muslim and female students, especially with the events of the Charlie Kirk event last spring, which brought Neo-Nazis to campus?” Alex Scott, junior natural resources management, also spoke about his disappointment in bringing Prager to campus “Having ASCSU splash their logo across Dennis Prager’s advertisements for his speech and his advertisements for his ideas is beyond the pale,” Scott said. “To ask these women who have survived sexual assault,

who now have this trauma as part of this lived experience, to walk to class knowing that their money is being spent (to) bring a man who believes that women in marriages should never deny their husbands sex, that we should ignore sexual assault victims, that we should ban homosexuality because it makes culture great, is beyond the pale. This has been a systemic and moral failing by this body that allows this man to come to speak at our campus.” Later in the night, Sen. Tamera Breidenbach expressed concern about the event to ASCSU President Tristan Syron. Breidenbach referenced an incident at the final Senate session of the 2017-2018 academic year in which a member of student group Students Against White Supremacy alleged that a member of ASCSU had doxxed her online after TPUSA’s Communications Director Candace Owens visited campus. Doxxing is posting one’s personal information online. “Do you want to talk about the elephant in the room right now?” Breidenbach asked. “Because those students coming before us was very disturbing, and last year there was already a student on our campus who was focused on and attacked by a member of Turning Point.” Syron responded there are certain things he considered unacceptable and that in the time leading up to the event, he would “try to set the tone that there are certain things (that are) unacceptable and take as much responsibility as (he) possibly can.” TPUSA at CSU was not available for comment by time of print, but they did tweet out during the meeting that “( just) like any other RSO (registered student organization) at @coloradostateu, we followed the process to put on educational and thought provoking student programming—yet the crusade against conservative ideas continues.” Stuart Smith can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Heather Daniels chosen as new director of admissions By Samantha Ye @samxye4

Heather Daniels is living the dream — or working it, to be more precise. This school year, Daniels was officially named the director of admissions for Colorado State University. “For me, becoming the director of admissions was always this career goal ... and I don’t know what there is beyond that,” Daniels said. “I feel really lucky that I’m at that point now in my career that I’ve gotten to a position that I am most excited about and at a place that I love, which is CSU.” The director role is mainly a leadership role to coordinate the many components of CSU admissions, Daniels said. The admissions office is composed of over 50 employees in four units: processing, recruitment and outreach, marketing and communications, and system operations, Daniels said. All four units work in conjunction to deliver consistent messaging to students — ranging from middle schoolers to graduate students — and help them get through application processes smoothly. “It’s a big team that does a lot of work and I think that my primary focus and responsibility is to provide leadership to this great team, to continue doing the work we have successfully been doing for the last years,” Daniels said. Danielle Keller, assistant director of campus-based counseling, wrote in an email to The Collegian that having Daniels in the director role feels like a continuation of former director Melissa Trifiletti’s vision. Trifiletti was able to mentor Daniels before passing away from cancer in August 2017. Daniels was chosen as co-interim director along with Christine Campbell in May 2017, after Trifiletti was promoted to vice president of enrollment and access. It was supposed to be a short-term role, just over the summer, but it lasted over a year. The 2017-2018 search for a new director yielded no results. Daniels worked as co-interim director from 2017 through the following school year, ushering in this year’s freshman class of 5,432, the largest freshman class CSU has admitted. “When it was time for the search to open back up again, I had to apply,” Daniels said. Daniels has worked in college admissions for 16 years and at CSU Admissions since 2013. While her previous experience had mainly been working with

prospective students, Daniels said she started with overseeing application processing when she first came to CSU. This shift allowed her to gain insight into the operational workings of the admissions process. Daniels said a major department reorganization kickstarted her opportunity to move beyond the processing division, as she quickly accumulated more and more responsibilities. Daniels’ has traveled and managed her own recruitment territory within Colorado, overseen admissions decisions, and after a couple of years, was promoted to senior associate director. Although she had the necessary experience to apply during the first director search, Daniels said it was only after serving as co-interim director that she gained the necessary confidence in both herself and the skill set to know she was ready for the job. Keller described Daniels as the “most genuine ‘boss’” she has ever had. “It takes about (five) minutes of spending time with Heather to see her passion for admissions, for students and for her team,” Keller wrote. “She has an uncanny ability to make you feel like you are the only person she is concerned about, even when you know she has about a million other things on her plate.” Ruben Nuñez, assistant di-

rector of visitor services and supervisor of the Admissions Ambassador program, echoed those thoughts in an email to The Collegian. “She is always wanting to make the decision that will have the best impact (on) students,” Nuñez wrote. “To be honest, I feel that is her greatest strength, students’ success is and always will be her main priority in whatever role she holds.”

“I want to make sure that we stay true to our mission as a land-grant institution in providing access to higher education, especially for our Coloradoans.” HEATHER DANIELS DIRECTOR OF ADMISSIONS

Nuñez wrote that, in the past year, the admissions office has dealt with some serious incidents such as the campus tour incident in which the police were called on two Native American men touring CSU. Throughout this whole time, Daniels remained not just supportive, but empathetic and aware of how this was impacting Nunez outside his role. “Moving forward, I do see

her giving some more insight into the offerings through Visitor Services, and I can already see her increase of engagement for wanting to connect with my students,” Nuñez wrote. CSU has increased the freshman class size every year for the last five years, with an annual goal of a 1-2 percent increase. Daniels said admissions works closely with higher administration goals in setting freshman class projections to meet long-term goals of increasing enrollment. “It feels great to have met and exceeded our goals,” Daniels wrote in an email to The Collegian. “However, we realize the stress that enrolling so many freshman students has on the campus.” Larger class sizes put around 100 students into overflow housing earlier this semester. Admissions coordinates with other departments and services on campus to ensure the growth of CSU is well-handled, Daniels said. As previously reported in The Collegian, one such plan to address the growth of CSU’s admitted population is by constructing a 1,400-bed residence hall named Meridian Village, scheduled to open in 2021. It’s not just about continuing the momentum. Although she has only been director for about a month, Daniels said she

is looking forward as far as 2025. Statistical forecasting from outside sources such as the Hechinger Report and CSU analysts has predicted a significant drop in college student enrollment starting in 2025, aligning with the drop in birth rate caused by the financial crisis 18 years prior. Admissions is preparing for this dip to ensure CSU gets their “fair slice of the pie” when the prospective student population drops, Daniels said. Daniels said it is also important to her to grow the native Coloradoan population at CSU because, while 63 percent of students are currently from the Centennial State, colleges are seeing a significant number going out of state. “I want to make sure that we stay true to our mission as a land-grant institution in providing access to higher education, especially for our Coloradoans,” Daniels said. Most of all, Daniels said she is thrilled and ready to devote her abilities to the place she considers home. “I’m honored to be chosen for this position,” Daniels said. “I want to continue doing great work that we’ve done but also see what else there can be done and work with this team to do those things.” Samantha Ye can be reached at news@collegian.com.

CSUPD focuses on enforcement, education By Blake O’Brien @BTweetsOB

It may come as a surprise to some students, but the Colorado State University Police Department is much more than bike cops and traffic stops. CSUPD performs a variety of valuable functions across campus. CSUPD released 2018’s Annual Fire and Safety report Sept. 28, detailing the department’s policies and responsibilities related to drug policy, crime prevention, emergency response and interpersonal violence, among many other topics. While these matters are some of the most noteworthy, CSUPD Chief Scott Harris wrote in an email to The Collegian that all safety issues on campus are treated as equally important. “We make every call from the community a priority in terms of a response,” Harris wrote. “And (we) conduct follow up by officers or through the Investigation Unit, if necessary.” The report’s first section — and one of its largest — covers alcohol, drug and marijuana policy at CSU. It goes through requirements for students and employees, policies on campus and educational/treatment programs available to members of the campus community. Harris wrote substance abuse violations don’t stem from a specific location, instead they occur in many places in and around

campus: the dorms, campus streets and adjoining neighborhoods. Most of the incidents do, however, have one thing in common: alcohol. “Alcohol continues to be the leading issue in regard to substance abuse violations,” Harris wrote. In many cases involving substance abuse violations, CSUPD will make a report to the Student Resolution Center if the behavior does not adhere to the University’s Student Code of Conduct. Harris wrote that, despite this, the role of officers goes beyond enforcement alone. CSUPD, in conjunction with other departments on campus, offers educational and treatment programs that are available to members of the campus community — and they’re not just about substance abuse. In 2017, CSUPD delivered 255 programs or presentations to 25,269 people, including students, parents, faculty and staff, according to the 2018 Annual Fire and Safety report. These programs cover a variety of topics including fire safety, interpersonal violence prevention, alcohol and drug awareness and computer crimes. Chief Harris wrote that these programs are critical to campus safety. “They provide us with an avenue to personally reach and engage campus community mem-

bers and have conversations with them about safety and specific issues that are of concern,” he wrote. Crime prevention is a major part of what the department does, but when a crime or emergency does happen, officers must respond. “CSU is a small city within a city,” Harris wrote. “Each day, there are more than 30,000 people within the square mile of main campus, and thousands more on our south campus and Foothills campus.” For students who may be concerned by the presence of emergency vehicles on campus, Harris wrote it is not uncommon for police officers, ambulances or fire trucks to respond to daily medical calls. Sometimes this is required several times per day. “While these are ‘routine,’ meaning there aren’t injuries caused by a crime such as an assault, these are not routine to the person who is needing care,” Harris wrote. “It’s an emergency to that person; we respond to each of these calls with urgency and thoroughness.” Harris wrote that campus is a very safe place overall and that most crimes that occur at CSU are classified as “crimes of opportunity.” This includes offenses such as theft of personal property. Harris encourages students to take steps to secure their belongings, such as not leaving

items unattended to and buying a U-lock for their bike. Students are also responsible for following traffic laws while on their bike, he said. According to CSU’s Safe Cycling Rules and Regulations, this includes using hand signals, stopping at stop signs, not riding in dismount zones and using at least one hand on the handlebars while cycling. Failure to comply with these rules results in a fine. Some students on campus feel that rules such as fining in dismount zones are too strict, but Harris wrote that not enforcing the rules and their consequent

penalties would compromise bike safety across campus. “The fact that someone is riding a bike and not driving a car does not make safety concerns less important,” he wrote. “Implying that fines or enforcement should be different for bike regulations implies that safety isn’t as much of a concern on a bike vs when driving a car.” Chief Harris and the rest of CSUPD’s job is to keep campus safe – the people on bikes, the people in cars, the people in classrooms, all of them.

There’s no excuse to ignore safe cycling laws on campus Katie Lindberg @quantumCatnip

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. Fort Collins is widely known as one of the best and safest places in the nation for cyclists. The organization, People for Bikes , ranks the city number one in safety on their list of bike-friendly cities. The League of American Bicyclists, has awarded both Fort Collins and Colorado State University platinum-level rankings on their lists of Bicycle Friendly Communities and Bicycle Friendly Universities. Yet many at CSU take for granted the monumental effort behind this bike-friendly environment. Members of the community ignore the responsibility they have in keeping it that way on a regular basis. Every day there are cyclists, boarders and skaters on campus

who weave through pedestrian-packed dismount zones. They ignore stop signs at congested intersections and redefine sidewalks as bike lanes for their convenience. These actions can lead to serious injuries for pedestrians and cyclists alike. Everyone using our award-winning bicycle network must recognize their integral contribution to safety if they want to continue to enjoy its benefits. Cyclists, boarders and skaters have a responsibility to educate themselves on campus laws, abide by those laws and bear the consequences of neglecting them. Campus transportation regulations like dismount zones and traffic signs may seem excessive or inconvenient, especially when it’s not uncommon to see others break those rules. But every rule about cycling, boarding and skating on campus is designed with safety in mind. Law enforcement personnel are far from the only ones concerned with safety on campus. Crime analyst Josh McClure with the CSU Police Department reported that students, faculty and staff regularly request more en-

forcement of dismount zones and other cycling regulations. In 2017, six of CSU PD’s 24 bike officers were in training, reducing their active patrol by 25 percent. McClure said that during that year, requests from the community for more enforcement skyrocketed.

“Cyclists, boarders and skaters have a responsibility to educate themselves on campus laws, abide by those laws and bear the consequences of neglecting them.” The CSU Police Department has a huge responsibility in keeping up CSU’s level of bicycle safety, considering the campus sees an average of 15,000 cyclists per day. Without their enforcement of the rules and regulations designed to keep cyclists and pedestrians safe, those rules would serve no purpose. The Bicycle Education and

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Democracy is not individualized By Guest Author @CSUCollegian

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. Letters to the Editor reflect the view of a member of the campus community and are submitted to the publication for approval. Dear editor, This is a response to Ethan Vassar’s opinion piece, “Why it’s not essential to vote” published Oct. 2. I really appreciate Vassar giving a voice to what is probably a segment of the population that is not often taken seriously. It seems like everywhere on a college campus, students abound ready to extol the virtues of voting, and enabling the conditions that allow for an engaged populous. But Vassar’s perspective seems to take a form of political engagement separate from directly engaging with the electorate, which I find a fascinating argument. At the same time, I find some inconsistency in Vassar’s approach to legitimizing a categorical imperative not to engage politically through the

observation that his views are “immensely over-represented”. While I agree that the voices that are heard more often circumstantially arise from the throats of other, as Vassar identifies himself, “straight, White, middle-class male(s),” let it not be forgotten that race, class, gender and sexuality do not dictate what your political views are. This is a common misconception that I see prevailing most often in the voices of those who, like both you and myself, have the historic comfort of our rights remaining “pretty much the same.”

“But that’s the thing Vassar doesn’t realize: Representative democracy wasn’t created just for him.” Political engagement is not something that should be manipulated in such a way to give disproportionate advantages to any segment of a population based off of arbitrary distinctions (or perceived distinctions) in one’s geneotype, sexuality and etc. One of the facts of life, as

you have mentioned, is the fact that because policies have been instituted and represented in the fashion that they have historically been, people like you and I benefit from political engagement in a way that is “entirely separate from many of the issues marginalized populations would like to see the government address and ultimately find solutions to.” What frustrates me most about Vassar’s stance on the efficacy of voting is that he recognizes that political engagement in the past has done things to objectively usher in a better world, like the abolition of slavery. He closes his article by saying that “there are no rights that the government needs to do a better job of enforcing for me, and no rights that others have which I don’t.” But that’s the thing Vassar doesn’t realize: Representative democracy wasn’t created just for him.

Enforcement Program (BEEP), part of the CSU PD, spearheads the effort to maintain a safe network of transportation on campus. While enforcement is one of their key roles, BEEP is about much more than writing tickets. “Our agency is heavy on education over punishment, especially when it comes to bike safety,” McClure said. BEEP works closely with other bike programs on campus to offer education opportunities and increase visibility. One example is the Spoke, CSU’s student-run center for cycling education and maintenance located in Laurel Village. The Spoke stocks maintenance and safety supplies for bikes and boards. Their technicians offer free interactive guidance on do-it-yourself maintenance, including how to use their on-site tools. This week the Spoke had students posted at stations around campus offering free bike maintenance and information to passing cyclists. While ignorance of the law is no excuse, especially with such available education, BEEP is fully aware that not everyone on cam-

pus is familiar with local cycling laws. Fines for campus violations were set with this in mind, and BEEP offers a bicycle safety seminar for offenders to get their firsttime safety violation fine of $35 cut in half. “The CSU BEEP program allows for a cheaper alternative where we can both enforce and educate the community on best cycling practices without involving them in the court system,” McClure said. In contrast, he said that similar violations in the city of Fort Collins would cost $50 with a court fee of $35 for a total of $85. Cyclists, boarders and skaters at CSU have no excuse for ignoring campus transportation laws. These laws are in place to keep everyone on campus safe, and the University does its part by offering a plethora of opportunities to learn about them. If individuals still choose to believe that these laws should not apply to them, then it is their responsibility to bear the consequences. Katie Lindberg can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

FOOTBALL

Three offensive keys for the Rams against San Jose State By Eddie Herz @Eddie_Herz

The Colorado State Rams upcoming matchup with San Jose State University fully commences Mountain West play for the team and poses the first of seven-consecutive conference matchups for Coach Mike Bobo’s squad. A 1-4 start to the season is indicative of several problems on the season for the Rams. The defensive woes may not be solved in 2018. But offensively, CSU is capable of providing firepower reminiscent of recent seasons. Though glimpses of a fully-functioning offense have been seen this season, the consistency has lacked. The Rams have failed to eclipse 19 points in three of the team’s five games. Colorado State players are far from satisfied with what they have achieved offensively through nearly the first half of the season. “At the end of the day you look at our roster, you look at what we have and we have the tools,” senior running back Izzy Matthews said. “We have everything that we need. It’s about coming together, it’s about putting it together, and it’s about becoming the team we know we can be.” Putting the difficulty of CSU’s first five opponents into consideration, the Rams should be well-positioned to succeed against the Spartans’ struggling defense this week. Let’s take a look at the key factors the Rams’ offense needs to capitalize on. Burn SJSU through the air Though CSU’s quarterback situation has become unclear throughout the season, it has not negatively impacted the Rams’ wide receiver core, a unit that has performed consistently. Senior wide receiver Olabisi Johnson came through against Illinois State University by collecting 107 yards, notching his second triple-digit performance this season. The unit’s overall performance was surprisingly quiet when you take last season’s track record into account. Junior wide receiver Preston Williams accumulated only 14 yards after gathering at least 100 in three of CSU’s previous four games. On Saturday, The Rams’ wide receivers are presented with the chance to feast on SJSU’s ineffective secondary. The winless Spartans have allowed an average of 379 yards through the air per game this season, 128th out of 130 FBS teams. “Every game is an opportunity for our receiving core and it was definitely nice to have that bye week to work on some things,” Johnson said. Progression in the offensive front five The limitations of CSU’s offense this season circle back to the offensive line. After losing a number of key

linemen from last season, regression was expected from the less-experienced unit. But, Bobo wasn’t anticipating struggles to this extent from the offensive line. The problems on the line have stripped the Rams from establishing the run in each and every one of their five games so far. Finally putting forth an effective performance would boost the confidence of the whole team. This is especially the case for Matthews who has struggled to produce this season. Matthews is averaging only 3.4 yards per carry on 61 attempts after carrying the ball for 4.6 yards per carry last season. It has been a frustrating campaign for a player who was planning on picking up where 1,399-yard rusher Dalyn Dawkins left off. Matthews has liked what he has seen from the front five lately though. “Coaches were hard on (the offensive line) during the bye week and they handled it very well,” Matthews said. “They all attacked the week and every single practice. I think they’ve grown exponentially as far as what we are doing. I’m excited to see what they do on Saturday.” SJSU’s run defense ranks 50th in the FBS, a lone bright spot in what has been an ongoing defensive struggle for the past few seasons. Use bye week as an advantage Though more of a mental element than a physical one, it is very important for CSU to come out of its bye week feeling like a better team. The bye week gave the Rams an extended period of time to work out kinks, a vital ability for a team that has lost four of five games to begin the season. Responding to the bye week with a win allows CSU to separate the season into two chapters and put the forgettable 1-4 start in the past. After all, the Rams play only MW opponents the rest of the year. With wins in the next seven games, the Rams would still have the opportunity to compete for the conference title. Bobo credits his team for staying enthusiastic and confident amongst the turmoil, giving reason to believe that the Rams may be able to respond in a resurgent manner following the bye. “When you keep losing you hope they still have belief,” Bobo said. “I feel good about where they think...we’ve played some good teams. But, I don’t think they’ve lost their confidence because (of being) 1-4. There is some value from playing those guys, of having to strain and having to play in tough games and getting knocked around.” The Rams’ matchup against the Spartans will take place Sept. 6 at Citizens Equity First Credit Union Stadium.

Saturday provides CSU’s defense with an opportunity to progress By Eddie Herz @Eddie_Herz

Defensive progression and consistency have been tough to come by for the 2018 Colorado State Rams. Fans saw a glimpse of a confident Rams’ defense that helped factor into a marquee victory over the University of Arkansas Sept. 8. However, the Rams’ defense has failed to build upon what was its lone effective defensive performance this season. The University of Florida put up 48 points on the Rams in the following week, with the team allowing 35 points to FCS-opponent Illinois State University the week after that. This coming Saturday, the Rams travel to face the winless

San Jose State University Spartans. Squaring up with the Spartans provides the Rams’ defense with the most significant confidence-building opportunity of the season. The Spartans have averaged 25.3 points per game en route to an 0-4 start to the season, which began with a defeat at the hands of FCS-opponent University of California, Davis in front of its home crowd. The Spartans scoring offense ranks 95th out of 130 FBS teams. Similar to the Rams, running the ball has been a major area of concern within the Spartans’ sputtering offense, though their struggles have been more pronounced. The Spartans rank dead last in the FBS with 54.5 rushing yards per game.

Though there are many examples, the Spartans rushing attack and its difficulties were epitomized in a 31-0 loss to Washington State University. The Spartans collected a total of nine rushing yards in the defeat. As far as the Rams’ morale goes, it is important for the Rams’ defense to contain the Spartans’ rushing attack. Even though it has not translated to any victories, the Spartans’ offensive strong suit comes via passing the ball. The Spartans rank 23rd in the FBS with an average of 295.8 passing yards per game. The Rams’ secondary is aware of how crucial limiting the Spartans through the air will be to their overall prosperity on Saturday. “We just have to stick to our

game,” junior cornerback Anthony Hawkins said. “As defensive backs, we know we have to protect over the top this week. We know that they put the ball in the air the majority of the time. We just plan on containing them and keeping everything in front of us.” If statistics indicate anything, it is that the Rams should not have any trouble putting together an all-around, potent defensive display. But, Rams’ defenders are treating the Spartans as they treat any opponent: with respect. “I’m going to go out there and play like I’m playing against anyone else,” sophomore defensive end Emmanuel Jones said. “Our team is just going to have to buckle down and do the job.”

After a 1-4 start, CSU’s bye week came at a convenient time. The week off gave the Rams extended time to work on key areas of improvement. “We got to work on a lot of the basics and getting back to what we know,” redshirt senior linebacker Tre Thomas said. “At the same time, learning more concepts and getting what we need to continue the season.” The upcoming matchup against the Spartans Oct. 6 is the first of seven-consecutive Mountain West contests for CSU, with the final conference matchup against the Air Force Academy on Thanksgiving concluding their season.

CSU student body needs to step up for football games Sergio Santistevan @TheRealsSergio

This season has been a disaster for the Colorado State football team, and the same thing can be said in the stands of Canvas Stadium. The stands are noticeably empty throughout the game and it is not alumni, season ticket holders or single-ticket purchasers contributing to an empty stadium – it is the student section. With nearly half of the stadium reserved for students, it’s disheartening that less than a quarter of the students stay until the clock hits double zeros. On the student’s behalf, I will say I get it. I understand. The team is bad this year, but the student body has consistently struggled to fill seats at the new on-campus stadium since last season. This seems like a never-ending cycle for CSU football and there’s no excuse for it. In the first game of the season against the University of

Hawaii, the crowd dispersed around halftime, long before CSU started their comeback attempt. In the Rams’ first victory against an SEC-foe in Fort Collins, only a small number of what remained of the student section was there to witness the historic victory. A majority had left when the University of Arkansas captured what looked like a commanding lead in the third quarter. In the annual Orange Out game, CSU looked destined to get their season back on track against FCS-opponent Illinois State. The Redbirds shocked the Rams, but it’s what happened to the stands that garnered attention. Canvas Stadium was made a mockery on social media in a picture that showed a completely empty student section with time around five minutes remaining in the game. The Ram faithful gave up on their team in what is one of the most significant games of the season to this program. The examples are abundant and stretch further back than just this season. The typical ex-

cuses for the departure are no longer valid. The program has yet to sell out a single game this year, with several student tickets reigning unclaimed on gameday. It’s hard to imagine if CSU was a Top-25 program that students would still be interested in the game. One of the problems is that it is not difficult to get students to the game, it is keeping them through all fourth quarters. Much of the student section gives little attention to the actual game taking place on the field. Once the Rams fall behind by double digits, the students head towards the exits. There is no faith and interest in football from a student section standpoint. A lot of the student body and CSU fans will often bring up the Power-Five argument, but there’s no Power-Five possibility without a quality football program, which in turn is created with the help of an effective student section. Take the University of Colorado for example, who generated several years of non-competitive football, but

the fans were always still there. As a University, CSU is better than the product it has been displaying on and off the field this season. The football program will figure things out, maybe not this season, nor the next, but eventually a CSU football team will take the field that the University can be proud of.

It is only fair that when that time comes, the student body is ready. Drastic steps need to be taken by student leaders and administrators to ensure that Canvas Stadium becomes a true on-campus environment. Sergio Santistevan can be reached at sports@collegian. com.

SPORTS FOR DUMMIES

Different levels of sports fandom, explained Ashley Potts @ashleypotts09

Being a sports fan is not as simple as it sounds. This is not one of those cases where “There are two kinds of people.” There are not just people who love sports and people who hate sports: it’s a spectrum. Believe it or not, even if you consider yourself the biggest sports dummy out there, you probably fall somewhere on the fandom spectrum. So, on a scale from novice to die-hard fanatic, where are you? Certified Sports Dummy I realize a great many people do not like sports, but I would still argue you cannot escape fandom completely. Even if you have never played a sport in your life, you do not live in a vacuum in which sports cease to exist. Maybe you do not tune in to games, you do not know the name of the team who won the last Super Bowl and you really do not care to talk about sports even casually. But I would bet you still know the teams who play for your state or school or hometown, you probably know who Michael Jordan and LeBron James are, you probably saw

that Nike ad with Colin Kaepernick and have an idea what that is about. You may have even used a sports meme without realizing that vaguely equates you to enjoying sports. Like it or not, sports are a part of our culture and you probably have a little bit of an opinion on something related to sports. While this does not necessarily make you a fan of anything specific, it does include you in the world of fandoms. Bandwagoner Joining a popular group is a natural step up into fandom for most sports dummies. Maybe that team you only vaguely know things about is suddenly doing pretty well. Your crush or significant other or roommate mentions some guy named Alexander Ovechkin and then you notice that his team just won the Stanley Cup, and it starts there. Maybe you go buy a t-shirt with his name on it or the one with the championship logo printed across the front. Then maybe next time someone asks you about a game you have a thing to say, then maybe you have a few things to say. Eventually, you will pay attention to a game on the TV at a restaurant, even watch a couple of games on purpose. But only if your favorite guy is playing and only if that team is doing pretty well.

As annoying as bandwagon fans can be to those who have been loyal from the beginning, it’s a starting place to like sports if you were not sure about them before. Casual Fan This is likely where most people fall. The casual fan will head to a sports’ bar because they know the game is on tonight. They wear the team’s t-shirt to class on game days and have a few more hanging in their closet. They will gladly accept a free ticket if a friend offers, or maybe purchase their own to a game or two per season. Casual fans can name a few players on the roster, probably all the starters, and know when is the right moment to cheer. They follow the team on social media and maybe ‘like’ a post every once in a while. These are the fans who like sports and are not afraid to strike up a conversation about them, but only when it’s convenient. Die-Hard Fanatic These are the people who truly love sports. Whether they played sports their whole life or just hoped on the bandwagon and let it take them where it may, these are the people who live and breathe for their team. Fanatics have a t-shirt or jersey for every day of the week,

hats for all seasons, bobbleheads, signed memorabilia, bumper stickers, lanyards and anything else imaginable that may be sold in the team store. Fanatics know every players’ stats, their nicknames, their hometowns and their girlfriend’s sister’s cousins middle name. They have Facebook pages dedicated to talking about their team and buy season tickets every year. They come to every game and it just never gets old.

Diehards are a subculture that sports dummies fail to understand, but they have their fun and do not care who is watching. Regardless of where you fall on the fandom spectrum, sports can be for everyone. You do not have to go crazy, but you can still use that LeBron James meme and have your fun.

Broncos Briefs: Vance Joseph confident team will rebound from loss to Kansas City By Ryan O’Halloran The Denver Post

Calling his team “different,” coach Vance Joseph said Tuesday he is confident the Broncos will quickly rebound from their 2723 loss to Kansas City and begin focusing on Sunday’s game at the New York Jets. “We’re all disappointed we didn’t win the game because (the team) played their hearts out,” Joseph said.,“The facts are that we’ve been in four tough football games and we’re 2-2. We have a lot of football left. I think this league is about playing your best football late and I think we’re heading that way.” The Broncos have played three games decided by three or fewer points, tied with Tennessee and

Cleveland for most in the NFL. The Broncos rallied in the fourth quarter to beat Seattle (27-24) and Oakland (20-19), but squandered a 10-point fourth quarter lead against Kansas City. Of the losses to Baltimore and the Chiefs, who are a combined 7-1, Joseph said: “We played good football, but we have to make more plays, we have to be more detailed and we obviously have to coach better (and) help our team win these close games. That’s the bottom line. . . . Our big-time players have to make plays in these kinds of (close) games to win.” Joseph would not single out any player who needed to improve, but the Broncos have no takeaways in the last three games, linebacker Von Miller has only two pressures

and hits apiece during the twogame skid and quarterback Case Keenum’s six interceptions are tied for second-most in the league. Impressed with Freeman Rookie running back Royce Freeman played only 18 snaps against the Chiefs, but gained 67 yards on eight rushes. “Royce, the last two weeks, is hitting his stride,” Joseph said. “I’m looking forward to getting him more touches.” Fourth quarter play selection Joseph said he was “OK,” with offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave’s play-calling that resulted in a three-and-out with the Broncos leading 23-20. “Obviously, you can walk in the next day and question the play calls, but it’s really about getting first downs,” Joseph said. “We

went three-and-out. Not good. We didn’t burn any clock, not good versus that offense. We can look back and say, ‘We could’ve handed the ball off two more times that drive and made some yards and burned some clock.’ But that’s hindsight.” Footnotes Joseph said right tackle Jared Veldheer remains under evaluation for a left knee injury sustained in Monday’s first half. . . . To fill the practice squad spot vacated by tight end Brian Parker (promoted to the roster on Friday), the Broncos signed tight end Temarrick Hemingway, who played eight games for the Rams in 2016.

Rockies shock Cubs, show world that baseball in Colorado ain’t no joke By Mark Kiszla The Denver Post

After traveling 2,500 miles, arriving at their hotel at 2:30 a.m to play their third game in a third different time zone within the span of three days, the Rockies should have collapsed from exhaustion in the National League playoffs. Instead, they shocked the Cubs and showed the world baseball in Colorado ain’t no joke. In a win-or-go home situation, the Rockies beat Chicago 2-1, in a lucky 13 innings. “This will go down as a major-league baseball classic,” said victorious manager Bud Black, trying to put it all in historical perspective. But outfielder Carlos Gonzalez spoke more directly to the sports fan in all of us when he turned to a television camera in a joyous Colorado clubhouse and said: “Sorry for the heart attack.” This wild-card playoff game began on Tuesday. It probably could’ve, and for the sake of everyone’s blood pressure definitely should’ve, ended four different times. But the champagne didn’t fly in the Colorado clubhouse until after the clock struck midnight on the Cubs, with a magical stroke of the bat from Tony Wolters, a hero that proves the game sometimes defies stat-geek explanation. The winning single, bounced through the middle of the Cubs infield that scored Trevor Story, was delivered by a back-up catcher who batted .170 during the regular season. Wolters hadn’t produced a hit since Sept. 10, then delivered what I’m guessing was the biggest hit of his life. “Are you kidding me?” said Wolters,, laughing. “Yeah, that was probably the biggest hit I’ve ever had, that’s for sure.” This was the sweet agony of baseball in October, when love feels like a knot in the stomach. When prayers are uttered before every pitch, and memories that bond fathers and sons forever are forged by nervous sweat and bone-rattling cheers. “People would be lying to you if they told you they weren’t nervous,” confessed Story. He added: “It felt like a war out there.” As the Rockies and Cubs battled deep into the night, desperately trying to keep the World Series hopes of two cities alive, I tried to narrow the focus and see it through the eyes of Fernando Arenado, the father who knows the swing of Colorado’s slugging third baseman better than anybody on earth, and Don Freeland, a baseball dad who estimates he threw more than 400,000 pitches while the

Colorado Rockies pitcher Kyle Freeland works against the Chicago Cubs in the first inning in the National League Wild Card on Tuesday, Oct. 2, 2018, at Wrigley Field in Chicago. PHOTO BY BRIAN CASSELLA CHICAGO TRIBUNE/TNS

future Rockies ace learned the game as a Denver kid. Remember where you were and who you fist bumped in Rocktober 2007? Kyle Freeland sure does. He was a skinny 14-year-old freshman at Thomas Jefferson High School. When Matt Holliday did a face plant onto home plate for the run that beat the San Diego Padres in the lucky 13th inning, Freeland knows exactly where he was: Leaping off the sofa at home. “I remember 2007 like it was yesterday. Being on my couch, watching Holliday slide into home plate,” said Freeland. He watched it on television, sitting alongside his dad. Fast forward 11 years. Freeland stood on the mound in Wrigley Field, staring into the teeth of 40,151 rowdy denizens of the Friendly Confines and a Cubs batting order that included Kris Bryant and Javier Baez. The rest of baseball laughs at Colorado, routinely mocking the game at 5,280 feet above sea level. Cubs manager Joe Maddon uttered a prayer of thanks this wild-card showdown

wasn’t played at Coors Field, which he insists is on the moon. “Did he say moon?” Black asked. Yes, Maddon did. “Nice,” Black said. The ballots for the Cy Young award have been cast. But is it too late to demand a recount? With all due respect to New York Mets ace Jacob deGrom, who richly deserves the honor, he doesn’t pitch half his games at zero gravity. Freeland pitched nearly 100 innings in LoDo, where he won 10 times with an earned-run average of 2.40, which would do Bob Gibson in his prime proud. Against the Cubs, with millions watching Freeland on television, he made a new generation of kids dream of major-league glory. He shut down the Chicago offense on four hits and shut up the crowd, reduced from a roar to the nervous murmur of the age-old baseball angst never far from Wrigleyville. I’m going to buy me a bulldog. I’m going to name it K-Free. Freeland is the ace Colorado has been waiting more

than a quarter-century to find. “I knew going in that he was not going to scare off and back down from this challenge,” Black said. When Black finally marched to the mound and took the ball from a weary Freeland with two outs in the seventh inning and a Chicago runner standing on first base, however, the noise in the ballpark immediately increased by a factor of 10. Colorado relief pitcher Adam Ottavino threw his first pitch to the backstop, then immediately got himself in a bases-loaded jam. Ut-oh. Ottavino escaped the mess in the seventh with a strikeout, but the Cubs got to him in the very next frame, tying the score when a double by Baez drove home teammate Terrance Gore. The Rockies scored their first run so long ago I had to google it. Charlie Blackmon led off the game with a walk, got stuck at third when a double by DJ LeMahieu got stuck in the outfield ivy, then lumbered across the plate on a sacrifice fly by Nolan Arenado. The drama, which began on

Tuesday and didn’t end until 12:04 a.m. Wednesday in the Windy City, and went on so long that in extra innings, Baez hugged Arenado on the base paths, not to avoid a double play, but to avoid falling down from exhaustion. Rocktober 2.0 might be one sequel that’s even better than the original. Nothing in 2007 was crazier than seeing one of the worst hitters in the majors deliver one of the biggest hits in Rockies franchise history. “This game can kick your butt sometimes,” Wolters said. “There’s a lot of adversity, but ... I’m not going to ever, I’m not ever going to let that take me down.” The excruciating knot in the stomach? Get used to it. The Rockies are off to Milwaukee, to face the Brewers in the National League Division Series. And the love of baseball forged during this unforgettable four hours and 55 minutes of baseball in October? That’s forever. Content pulled from Tribune News Service.

COLLEGIAN REVIEWS

‘We the Animals’ crafts cinematic beauty and nuance By Ryan Lueck @ryanelueck

Distressed relationships observed in childhood can have lifelong effects, and are prominent in Jeremiah Zagar’s “We the Animals.” Beautifully and intimately shot, “We the Animals” carefully crafts a complex and nuanced portrait of a life lived through budding identity, domestic violence and poverty. This film explores the dynamic tension of families through Manny (Isaiah Kristian), Joel (Josiah Gabriel), and Jonah’s (Evan Rosado) navigation of life with toxic parents. “We the Animals” demands self-reflection of the viewer and familiarity of growing up, and conveys these feelings through gorgeous and impressively engrossing cinematog-

raphy by Zak Mulligan. Featuring shallow depths of field and a “Moonlight”-esque style of sublime imagery, the film leads with a passion and emotional intimacy rarely found in current films. “We the Animals” is now playing at the Lyric. “We’re never going to escape this,” Pops (Raúl Castillo) said. A stunning moment follows this sentiment, as Pops digs a grave in their front yard, rain thundering down as he lays in it. “It’s a magic hole,” the boys conclude. It does feel like at times, this family cannot seem to stop digging their own graves. The childlike optimism helps the film bring realization to powerful images coordinated with superb performances. This brings a whole and harmonious experience for the filmgoer, who cannot help but breathlessly crave each coming frame. The characters exist in a realm of cigarette-butt realism, held down by the tensions of social poverty. This hinders the boys and their mother (Sheila Vand) from growing out of their

cycle of struggling to make ends meet within a domestically violent and volatile existence. Exploring budding sexual identities and learning to float in a world where it is sink-orswim, this film is limitless in its scope as it is in its subtle complexities. Featuring intensely performed characters, nuanced writing, brilliant directing and masterclass cinematography, this film’s emotional grip leaves it as one of the most intensely satisfying movie events of the season. Should you see it? Absolutely. This film is more than a collection of blazing cinematography and beautiful storytelling, and is brilliantly and refreshingly representative in narrative characterizations. Featuring a nearly entire Latino cast, the performances shine and the cascading power of these performances is yet another impressive feature that sets this film apart.

FOOD & DINING

4 spots to grab a bite on National Taco Day By Graham Shapley @shapleygraham

National Taco Day is undefined and vague in its terms: Do you just eat one taco? Do you have to make one or can you purchase one? What if you’re too lazy to make a home-cooked taco? Can you just go to the Taco Bell in the Lory Student Center? There is no wrong way to celebrate taco day. Eating homemade tacos, going out for tacos or eating no tacos at all are all acceptable so long as you keep the spirit of tacos alive. If laziness overtakes and you’d like something with a bit more quality, here are a few taco spots for all taco lovers. That’s A Wrap, Lory Student Center: Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. - 3 p.m. It may come as a surprise that That’s A Wrap even offers tacos, and they taste better than they look. It is known for its breakfast burritos, but on the center section of the menu, there are some taco options that may be overlooked. Street tacos are ready to be filled with pork carnitas, chicken, beef barbacoa or even grilled veggies, topped with black beans and corn, as well as an option of salsa to put on top such as avocado crema. Sadly, That’s A Wrap tortillas tend to tear under the weight of the fillings. These tacos can get a bit sloppy and are the sort that warrants a fork and a napkin. One downside of the restaurant is that it’s open for about seven hours a day, which makes it easy to miss the window. Prohibitive hours mean that weekend or dinnertime taco-cravers are going to have to look else-

where. Fuzzy’s Taco Shop (Open 8 a.m. to midnight Monday-Saturday, 9 a.m 11 p.m. Sunday) Fuzzy’s tacos are simple but effective, topped with lettuce, tomatoes and cheese no matter the style. Fuzzy’s feels more like a bar than a Mexican restaurant. This is likely because they get a lot of drinking business most nights. They also have the honor of being a good spot for breakfast tacos. If you can get in when they’re not busy, the food is good and relatively cheap. DGT- open 11 a.m. - 9 p.m. Tuesday-Sunday) Nestled underneath the Alley Cat Coffee House is DGT, which up until last year was known as Dam Good Tacos until a legal battle with Torchy’s Tacos forced a name change. The previous name wasn’t exaggerating, as every taco in the shop looks great while also managing to have a great variety in components. Almost everything on the menu has different ingredients and toppings, leading to an interesting eating experience if you get a variety of tacos. Each taco tastes different. For vegetarian eaters, DGT has the largest variety of vegetarian tacos of those on this list. Rather than just offering a simple grilled veggie, like Fuzzy’s and That’s A Wrap, there’s a variety from tofu to a Greek-style chickpea taco. Vatos Tacos and Tequila 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday-Thursday, to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday Vatos is the newest restaurant on this list, having only opened a few short months ago. In that time in its place at the Exchange in Old Town, it’s been garnering positive reviews on-

line and serving up street tacos and burritos out of repurposed shipping containers. Operated by the same owners of the Blue Agave Grill, a known restaurant in Old Town, Vatos Tacos offers dine-in and grab-and-go options, making it

an easy spot to grab a quick bite. The prices are cheap as well, with tacos ranging from $2.5 3.5 apiece, though the portions can feel small. You’ll need to grab a few if you want to get full. Vatos Tacos is the furthest away from campus on this list.

It’s not something that will fit into an hour-long lunch break, you’ll likely want to work out more time before hopping on a bus. Graham Shapley can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

CONCERTS

Denzel Curry breaks all taboos during Denver tour stop By Henry Netherland @NetherlandHenry

Still hot off of his critically acclaimed third LP, “Ta13oo,” South Florida rap extraordinaire, Denzel Curry brought his fiery flow to Denver’s Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom on Oct. 1. Opening for Curry was self-proclaimed“greatest Asian rapper alive,” Kid Trunks. I was mostly aware of his presence through his association with other South Florida rappers like Ski Mask the Slump God and Lil Pump, but never really engaged with his music directly. Throughout very brief en-

counters with his music, Kid Trunks’ tracks are the poster children for generic trap music. His songs are hardly memorable or unique. Given that Trunks hails from Broward County, Florida, the same region late rapper XXXTentacion hailed from, there was an expectation of at least a few mentions of the rapper’s recent passing. What I was not expecting was for Trunks to use X’s songs for nearly half his set including the opening. While it would be understandable to continue mourning the loss of a close friend, it almost felt like Trunks was aware that he is far from the most popular rapper in the region, so, he had to

make up for it by pandering to X fans. However, despite my very harsh criticisms towards the core of his material, he was able to maintain a stellar amount of energy with the audience; a level of energy I have never seen from other opening acts and only occasionally from headliners. Once again in spite of his usually disappointing output, I do not feel like there could have been a more appropriate preview of what would come in the next performance. Trunks’ set rating: 5/10 Considering that Curry dropped what is unquestionably one of the best hip-hop releases of 2018, I expected noth-

ing short of incredible from him in a live setting, which is exactly what he delivered. I have never seen someone maintain such a high level of performance, energy and conviction from start to finish. Even during his more laid back R&B tinged cuts, he was able to maintain steady rapid-fire triplet flows that do not let up. During the harder, more punk cuts, his flows are almost reminiscent of bullets coming out of a machine gun. Backing him up on these heavier tracks are ghostly, horror movie inspired instrumentals that evoke feelings of eeriness. Curry divided the show into three acts, much in the same way he divided “Ta13oo.” Every

act came with an outfit change. While it is questionable how the wardrobe changes correlate to “Ta13oo’s” concept, I can at least give him credit for being more ambitious than his peers in his live sets. Curry’s set rating: 9/10 My only real complaint was that Curry didn’t interact with the audience or show off his everyday personality. Considering the audience is paying in order to see a specific performer in real life, I personally feel like fans are entitled to at least some form of direct communication with the performer.

It’s impossible not to fall in love with the stars of ‘A Star Is Born’ By Katie Walsh Tribune News Service

With pop superstar Lady Gaga as his muse, legendary cinematographer Matthew Libatique behind the camera, and a well-worn, beloved Hollywood fable to work with, the cards are stacked in favor of star/co-writer/director Bradley Cooper for his directorial debut, “A Star is Born.” And yet, his film is frankly startling in how assured, artful and emotionally authentic it is. This is finely-tuned precision filmmaking — genuine artistry on display in a huge, prestige studio movie. It’s a blockbuster romance that looks and feels like an indie film, all in service of an expression of pure love. In a physically and vocally transformed performance, Cooper stars as country rocker Jackson Maine, with an Arizona origin story right out of an epic western melodrama. His ears ringing from chronic tinnitus, and at the bottom of his bottle after a show, he stumbles into a drag bar for a drink and encounters Ally (Gaga). She’s singing an Edith Piaf number, with painted hair and stick-on eyebrows. Sprawled on the bar, she locks eyes with Jackson, and with us, and instantly both he and we have fallen for the impish singer. After a few rounds in a cop bar, a fistfight and an impromptu intimate songwriting session in a supermarket park-

ing lot, she’s fallen too. Fundamentally, “A Star is Born” is a movie about love — love that shines in the best of times, persists in the worst — but truly, it is about falling in love with Ally’s face. The moment that’s been in every version of the movie, where Jackson says he “just wants to take another look” at her, is the thesis, the spine around which the story rotates. The camera reflects the love for Ally’s Roman nose Jackson professes, following her profile as she looks up, toward the future and the stars, while Jackson looks down, ruefully reflecting on his past. He squints, grins and hides under his hat, but can barely contain his delight in Ally, in her talent, her voice, and yes, her nose. It’s impossible not to fall in love with the stars of “A Star is Born,” but there’s so much more to love too. The supporting cast is dynamite, from Anthony Ramos as Ally’s best friend to Sam Elliott doing career-best work as Jackson’s older brother and embattled tour manager, Bobby. Former bad-boy standup comic Andrew Dice Clay turns in an uncommonly sensitive performance as Ally’s father, a former crooner himself. With an assist from the Lukas Nelson Band, who serve as Jackson’s on-screen band, “A Star is Born” is a foot-stomping barn burner of a music movie. The live sets are electrifying, especially the

first scene where Jackson pulls Ally on stage to sing the ditty they wrote, which is as hair-raising and goose-bumping as it gets. Gaga demonstrates a remarkable facility for acting while singing: In her first belter of a song onstage, she progresses from terror to surprise at her own vocal power. The live scenes are a physical experience, the weight and heft of the music overtaking your senses, a stark sensory juxtaposition to the hollow pop songs she performs as her solo career takes off. Gaga’s superstar status falls away as she embodies this girlish, unassuming and forthright young woman. She’s innocent but tough, a bit wary. Ultimately, she’s a dreamer swept away by this older star, and Cooper carefully calculates that the audience fall in love with Ally in the way Jackson does. As her star rises, Jackson constantly reminds her being a singer/ songwriter is about what you have to say as much as the way you say it, when you have an audience willing to listen. Cooper knows he has an audience willing to listen, and what he says is so beautifully, powerfully open-hearted, vulnerable and loving it’s overwhelming. A star has indeed been born: Bradley Cooper as auteur, who takes his chance to say what he wants to say and simply knocks it out of the park. Content pulled from Tribune News Services.

CONCERT REVIEWS

Hoodie Allen puts on intimate and interactive show at the Aggie By Davis Bonner @backhaul_photo

Hoodie Allen’s performance at the Aggie Theater Friday night marked his second stop in Colorado after Denver on his “Hanging with Hoodie” tour. Announced in 2014, the “Hanging with Hoodie” tour strays from typical tours with an emphasis on small, intimate venues and ticket sales limited to only 500 per show. All 500 tickets for each show on the tour also includes a free meet and greet with Allen before the performance. As part of his tour, Allen invited the crowd to participate during the show by inviting a few lucky audience members on stage to participate in one of two themed game shows. “[This tour] was going to be a more intimate thing so I’m always trying to look for ways to make it more fun and different than anything anyone’s seen before,” Allen said in a postshow interview with The Collegian. “That’s kinda where the trivia thing came in and doing the spinning wheel, just ways to get the crowd involved when they can all really be a unit together, and I feel that happened tonight.” Throughout the show, Allen

paid tribute to his super fans by playing a wide range of songs spanning from the beginning of his career to music that hadn’t been released yet. While there were some crowd favorites like “No Interruption”, the setlist was largely oriented around songs from earlier in his career to pay tribute to his fans who have been listening since the beginning. “For me, I feel like its only right to play as much as possible for everyone in the building,” Allen said. “With the con-
