Democrats sweep Colorado

Polis, Neguse make history in 2018 midterms

By The Collegian News Team @CSUCollegian

Democrats are making their voices heard in Colorado.

The blue party swept the board in the general elections Tuesday night as party candidates won governor, attorney general and a slew of local rac-

es. Colorado’s new governor is Jared Polis, who won with 51.31 percent of the vote, and Colorado’s new representative for the House of Representatives 116th District is Joe Neguse, who won with 60.5 percent, according to Colorado’s Secretary of State. “(Polis has) done such a great job as our congressman

and we look forward to having him as our governor,” said James Thompson, chairman of the Larimer County Democrats.

“We worked really hard in Larimer County to get him elected.

Certainly, Larimer County has a really big influence on statewide elections, so we’re happy for all the great work and all the

volunteers did here in Larimer County to help get Jared Polis elected” Polis, the first openly gay and the first Jewish governor in Colorado history according to Colorado Politics, was projected to win throughout the night, according to MSNBC. Although Polis’s campaign was not fo-

cused on his sexuality, Democrat Pat Throgmorton, attendee at the Larimer County Democrats’ watch party, believes that his win will have an impact on the future.

POLITICS

Passed, failed: 2018 Colorado Ballot Initiatives

By The Collegian News Team @CSUCollegian

Editor’s Note: All final percentages were gathered from The New York Times as of 11:56 p.m.

Mountain Time Nov. 6. The totals had not been officially finalized as of that time.

From gerrymandering to oil and gas to education funding, Colorado had several groundbreaking, contentious and controversial ballot initiatives this midterm season. Here are the final results of the 2018 Colorado midterms.

Amendment 73: Failed (55.7 percent no) Amendment 73 proposed to increase funding of public education for schools that serve preschool through 12th grade.

This would be done by increasing income taxes in tax brackets above $150,000 per year.

Amendment 74: Failed (53.5 percent no) This amendment proposed a requirement that state or local governments compensate a property owner if a law or regulation reduced the fair-market value of their property.

Since the amendment failed, state law will continue to re-

quire any Colorado government to compensate a property owner for taking or damaging property based on three circumstances: eminent domain, if the government damages the property or “regulatory taking,” where the government enacts a measure that deprives a property owner of the use or most of the value of the property.

Amendment 75: Failed (66.1 percent no) This amendment proposed a change to the Colorado Constitution to increase campaign contribution limits when a candidate loans or contributes more than $1 million to his or her own campaign. This would have allowed all candidates in that same election to collect five times the current level of individual contributions.

Proposition 109: Failed (61.2 percent no) This proposition would have required the state government to borrow up to $3.5 billion in 2019 to be used as funding for up to 66 highway projects and identify a source to repay the borrowed amount without raising taxes or fees for the public.

Along with this, the proposition would limit repayment

amounts to no more than $5.2 billion over a 20-year period.

Proposition 110: Failed (59.7 percent no) This proposition aimed to increase Colorado’s sales and use tax rate from the current 2.9 percent to 3.52 percent for 20 years, distributing that new tax revenue for transportation projects. Of the proposed revenue, 45 percent would have gone to the state, 40 percent would have gone to local governments and the last 15 percent would have been used for multimodal transportation projects.

Proposition 111: Passed (76.7 percent yes) Since the proposition passed, the total cost of a payday loan will be raised to 36 percent annually and expand the definition of unfair or deceptive trade practices for payday lending.

Proposition 112: Failed (57.1w percent no) This proposition would have required that new oil and natural gas developments be located at least 2,500 feet from occupied structures, water sources and areas designated as vulnerable. Along with this, the measure would not apply to federal

land, including national parks and forests.

Amendment A: Passed (64.9 percent yes) Language pertaining to the legality of slavery or involuntary servitude as a punishment for a convicted crime will be struck from the Colorado Constitution. It now reads, “There shall never be in this state either slavery or involuntary servitude.”

Amendment X: Passed (60.7 percent yes) Amendment X will outline the legal definition of industrial hemp in the Colorado Constitution to have the same meaning as defined in federal law or a state statute, instead of being tied to the State’s own constitutional definition. The term is defined as a plant of the genus cannabis with 3 percent or less THC content when the substance is completely dry.

Amendment V: Failed (65.2 percent no) Amendment V would have reduced the age qualification for legislative members in Colorado to 21. With the failure of this amendment, Colorado candidates for both the state’s House of Representatives and Senate

are still required to be at least 25 years old.

Amendment Y: Passed (71.2 percent yes) Amendments Y and Z create two 12-member legislatively-independent commissions to take over the legislative and congressional redistricting processes and establish additional redistricting guidelines.

Amendment Z: Passed (70.8 percent yes) Amendments Y and Z create two 12-member legislatively-independent commissions to take over the legislative and congressional redistricting processes and establish additional redistricting guidelines.

Amendment W: Failed (Didn’t reach 55 percent) The current ballot formatting asks voters about the retainment of each judge individually. The amendment would have stacked them under one question with ‘Yes’ of ‘No” bubbles next to each judge or justice’s name.

However, while it received 53.2 percent of yes votes needed to pass.

Governer >> from page 1 but it is an important state during elections,” Throgmorton said. “And if we can have a governor like (Polis) for the next several years, I think even in the next election we’ll see even more people, gay people, everybody running for office.”

Polis’s win as the first openly gay governor goes alongside a nationwide trend of inclusivity, Thompson said, even though the current administration might not want to go in the same direction.

STATE AND NATIONAL RACES Accurate as of 11:30 p.m. Nov. 6 ■ Congressional District 2 Representative Joe Neguse (D): 60.5 percent ■ State Governor Jared Polis (D): 51.31 percent ■ State Attorney General Phil Weiser (D): 49.4 percent ■ Secretary of State Jena Griswold (D): 50.61 percent ■ State Treasurer Dave Young (D): 50.36 percent “But as Democrats, we want to make sure all voices are heard and all people are accepted, and I think this will be a great step forward,” Thompson said.

“We’re going to keep to fight to be inclusive as a party, and we hope that everyone, democrats, republicans, unaffiliated voters everywhere will move in that direction.”

Thompson said that Polis has always been working to engage with the younger demographic, and was amazed at how many young people got involved this midterms season, whether that was through voting or through Larimer County Campaign Corp, which encouraged people to go out to vote through phone calls and knocking on doors.

“He’s always been engaging as a congressman,” Thompson said. “I’ve seen him on campus engaging kids there, I’ve seen him engaging high school kids … who are prepared to vote and who will be voting. Future Governor Polis realizes that we need to get more young people involved, and the best way to do that is to go out there and meet them on their own turf.”

Local high school students were in attendance in hopes of understanding the effects on their futures. Junior Katherine Demaret and sophomore Ella Jensen were two such students from Rocky Mountain High School.

Current issues are part of what called the students to participate, Jensen said.

“It’s important for our generation and for the current people to initiate change,” Jensen said. “And I think that this will be making really great strides in education and mental health issues, which are both relevant to me and my life.”

Demaret agreed, saying that this election will be affecting her generation’s lives and future.

“In this election, we’re deciding the face of America, who we’re going to be and what we’re going to stand for,” Demaret said.

On the opposite end of town, the Republican watch party saw a different future unfolding when it appeared that Polis would be their next governor.

While disappointment was unavoidable, several looked across the aisle.

Melanie Calderwood, the vice chair of the Larimer County Republicans, said she still hopes for a lot of collaboration between the two parties.

“I’m hoping Jared Polis will keep Colorado efficient,” Calderwood said. “I’m also hoping to see a lot of bipartisan activity within the government.”

Veronica Morin, the president of College Republicans

at Colorado State University, hopes Polis will not do as much with healthcare and oil regulations as he has said, but said she will support him.

LARIMER COUNTY RACES Accurate as of 11:30 p.m. Nov. 6 ■ County Commissioner John Kefalas (D): 54.04 percent ■ County Assessor Bob Overbeck (D): 50.41 percent ■ County Clerk and Recorder Angela Myers [R]: 59.55 percent ■ County Treasurer Irene Josey (R): 53.84 percent “You always want to support who’s in office. You never want them to fail, because if they fail, that means bad things for the citizens of Colorado,” Morin said. “I’ll support our governor, and hope that he does the best job that he can. Ideally, as a Republican, I want to see them do as little as possible.”

Another victory for the Larimer County Democrats came in the election of Neguse as the new representative for Colora-

do’s Congressional District 2.

With Polis, Neguse also made history tonight by becoming the first African-American to be elected to Congress in Colorado.

Although he couldn’t attend the election watch party in Larimer County, he made a Skype call to the watch party and promised to visit often.

“Know that every day I will spend my career in Congress fighting for the people of Fort Collins,” Neguse said. “I will be back in Larimer County often, thank you all so much for your support.”

Students who’ve met with Neguse, such as Jensen and Demaret, have described him as an honest and genuine person.

“He’s been really empowering and great with reaching out to everyone,” Jensen said. “It’s clear that he’s an honest and hard-working man. He’s really cool and I know many others agree.”

Demaret said she respects how Neguse took the time to say hello to everyone in her group when she and other local high schoolers had the chance to meet him while helping the campaign. She said it means a lot that he has made a clear

attempt to connect with other people.

Elyssa Hamilton with the Larimer County Democratic Campaign Corp, fondly referred to as the “girl gang” throughout the night, said the evening’s results filled those present with a wave of hope and motivation for the future. The youth, in particular, show great promise.

“This year we’ve seen many candidates that represent young people in many ways,” Hamilton said, referring to issues such as student loans, healthcare and affordable housing. “Colorado’s blue wave has encouraged us to step up into these important roles and to fulfill them as young people.”

Hamilton said that the surge of young voters during this year’s election proves that future generations will have the voice they need in politics and government.

“This was a year where the elections saw a surge of millennial voters. People who voted this year are likely to vote again,” Hamilton said. “These are the people who will have a voice in their government.”

CSU collects community ideas for upcoming strategic plan

By Samantha Ye @samxye4

Colorado State University’s next strategic plan is in the works, and the University is trying everything to make it a plan they can actually follow.

University communications have been gathering input from a myriad of the campus and local community sources this fall in order to inform the upcoming CSU strategic plan. This included two community forums hosted by the CSU Center for Public Deliberation, which allowed participants to share and develop their ideas for CSU’s future with others on campus.

“We want to create a different type of planning process and a different type of plan that we revisit annually to see how we’re doing, to check in on our progress.”

LAURA JENSEN VICE PROVOST FOR PLANING AND EFFECTIVENESS

Ideas pitched so far include “Put students over profits” and “Less Neomarxists in Clark.”

Many priorities mention improving inclusivity and diversity in the community.

A final strategic plan was originally scheduled for the spring, Vice Provost for Planning and Effectiveness Laura Jensen said. With the announcement of President Tony Frank’s departure, however, the data collected will now be synthesized and given to the new University president to inform their creation of a strategic plan.

In the past, the University’s strategic plans have done little more than “sit on a shelf,” Jensen said. CSU has not been great about actually using the plans, to the point they are not sure how well past plans have panned out if at all.

The upcoming strategic plan will hopefully be an improvement over that.

“We want to create a different type of planning process and a different type of plan that we revisit annually to see how we’re doing, to check in on our progress,” Jensen said. “So, I think we’re very intentionally trying to do it different this time.”

CSU, so far, has done multiple small community dinners, open forums and contracted with a consultant all to access a large diversity of perspectives.

Several dozen participants of students, faculty and staff attended the two CPD forums. One forum in late October was held at night and attracted more students, while the one held on the morning of Nov. 5 attracted more faculty and staff, Program Coordinator Kalie McMonagle said.

Participants talked in smallgroup discussions about what they would like to see for CSU, what

IMAGE COURTESY OF THE CENTER FOR PUBLIC DELIBERATION

trends are currently in place, and how the University may need to adapt to achieve those goals.

“This is an opportunity for people to be able to hear the wide variety of different ideas that are coming out across the university and what we want to see for our community,” McMonagle said.

The discussions went for an hour but felt very brief due to the extensiveness of the subject, said Jessica Hunter, research project

manager in the Natural Resource Ecology Laboratory.

“It’s important that they tap so many resources in requesting our feedback,” Hunter said.

Hunter’s table discussed climate change, funding and employee retention, but other tables dove into other topics like student mental health, facilities maintenance and affordability (both in the city and for tuition).

Individuals each contributed

three strategic goals they considered priority by the end of the forum. Final ideas get uploaded to a public interactive planning map where users can filter ideas by department and keywords.

For those who could not make the forums, ideas can still be submitted on the CPD website. There will also be two more forums in the spring.

Health Network looks out for student mental health

By Delaney Allen @DelaneyAllen0

Chances are you will visit the Health Center at some point during your career at Colorado State University. But the center offers more than just flu shots and checkups.

Often, students are unaware of the resources they have available to them when it comes to mental health, and the Health Center, located at 151 W. Lake St., offers a wide variety of these resources.

They have a wide range of mental health services, such as special resilience workshops.

Kate Hagdorn, the associate director of communications for the CSU Health Network, said that the purpose of the CSU Health Network is to support student success through the different resources available for every CSU student.

“We offer therapy groups and psycho-educational or skill-building workshops,” Hagdorn said.

“Students can register and participate in a variety of different topics depending on what their goals are.”

Hagdorn added that beyond the Health Center, students can find resources on campus and on their website.

“I think that it’s important for students to remember that there are resources across campus, not just within the CSU Health Network, that can support their well being,” Hagdorn said. “Student well being is a university priority. It doesn’t just live at the Health Center.”

In order to promote student

success and well-being, the Health Center works with other institutions across campus to bring students everything that they need.

“We also partner with TILT, and you can find some great resources at the Career Center,” said Viviane Ephraimson-Abt, manager of resiliency and well-being. “There are other places for you. We do hope that when students have a need, they find some other resources that they have available to them, but we also hope students are thinking proactively about their mental health.”

The Health Center is trying to increase their presence in the community by hosting events on campus and teaching small classes about how to improve student resiliency, such as the recent Health Fair, held for the second time in late October. They also educate about different methods of selfcare, which is vital to staying afloat during a particularly stressful week.

It is important to acknowledge the many different services that the CSU campus offers, whether you need a quick nap in the first-floor nap pod or you need to reserve a counseling appointment.

CSU Sustainable Fashion Show By chelsea evic

If you’re in the CSU Department of Design and Merchandising, or just a student on campus interested in fashion, you’ve probably heard that the Sustainable Fashion Show is fast approaching. Every other year, the Fashion Group International(FGI) student chapter hosts a fashion show that features garments made from recycled materials. Katherine Ruddy, the co-head of the model and garment committee, says that FGI has been working tirelessly since August to make this event unique and exciting. Their goal is to bring awareness to the community about sustainable fashion and living. It is encouraged to bring any used clothing that you may have to the fashion show which will be donated to the Fort Collins Rescue Mission.

This year, the theme is called “Urban Stars.” They want to capture the elegance of a city at nighttime and incorporate color schemes of dark blues, blacks and reds into the set and garments. There will be 36 pieces featured that are made and modelled by students from all different majors and years. You’ll see creative garments constructed from trash bags, shower curtains, comics, cans, seat belts and more!

Grooming Tip of the Week

How to Preserve your Grey Hair Color Try not to wash your hair as often, we know this makes some of you shudder, but when done every day the dye will fade fast. Silver and grey dyes aren’t great at holding their colour.

If washing less isn’t an option because you use gels or sprays regularly—look for sulfate-free and colour safe shampoos and conditioners.

You want to avoid the yellow brassiness that comes from oxidisation. Colour-depositing products every couple weeks will help. Guys with silver hair should aim for silvering shampoos and conditioners with UV protectants.

Again, it comes down to having a solid care and grooming routine, purple shampoo and matte styling products are the best product for grey hair. Don’t let age stop you from trying different style cuts. It never hurts to still be a little adventurous.

And remember sexy grey hair is a thing.

The problem with #BelieveWomen

What to look for in CSU’s next president

Arisson Stanfield @OddestOdyssey

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.

Many are looking for ways to shift our society towards being more trusting and less condemning to those who have been victimized. #BelieveWomen is a well-meaning but unfinished idea that we as a culture must continue thinking through.

To understand the #BelieveWomen movement we must also understand the context in which it was created (i.e. the broader #MeTooMovement).

A watershed moment in American culture, the #MeTooMovement is characterized by a nationwide outpouring of accounts of sexual assault and a demand for consequences for the assailants.

“Women are people, and people lie. Thus anyone who argues that people should simply believe women is not taking the humanity of the fairer sex seriously.”

This push to take survivors of assault seriously is necessary and noble but the move by some to encourage society to believe women, in particular, is not the same as pushing the populace to believe survivors. #BelieveWomen is problematic because it perverts a movement designed to legitimize the survivors and equates women with victims by definition.

Using women as a term that is interchangeable with survivors obscures the plight of men who are victimized as well.Therefore #BelieveWomen does not serve survivors as a rallying cry for their pain to be heard. Instead, it further politicizes a ‘social evil’ and creates a hierarchy of victimhood in which women are ranked higher than men.

This also perpetuates the myth that women are the world’s victims. If history has made anything clear it is that women are much more than that. While they have often been denied the same rights as men, they have also played an active role in shaping history and society.

Ignoring this and framing women as victims also ignores

their potential to be perpetrators of human evil.

The National Sexual Violence Resource Center reports that false claims amount to between 2-10 percent of reports. While this rate is not particularly higher than rates of false reporting found in other types of crime, it does demonstrate that there is a problem with claiming that people should believe an entire gender.

Women are people, and people lie. Thus anyone who argues that people should simply believe women is not taking the humanity of the fairer sex serious. It should be our mission to find a way to recognize both the valid claims of survivors and the social anxiety regarding unfounded accusations.

Opting to create dangerous slogans that eliminate any potential opportunity for nuance is not the answer.

The idea that people should #BelieveWomen is dangerous because it ignores the fact that throughout American history women’s, almost exclusively White, claims of sexual assault have been used as a tool to demonize and incarcerate men of color.

Take for instance Carolyn Bryant Donham, the woman who accused 14-year-old Emmett Till of aggressive sexual impropriety.

This was an accusation that led to the young boy being tortured and tied to a cotton-gin before being thrown into a river. This was an accusation that she admitted was fabricated in 2017.

Fallacious claims like this hardly remain a purely historical phenomenon. The National Registry for Exonerations has stated that a Black prisoner convicted of sexual assault is “three-and-a-half times more likely to be innocent than a White sexual assault convict.” Additionally, African-Americans make up only 13 percent of the population but “constitute 47 percent” of exonerations prior to 2016.

What this demonstrates is that the movement to #BelieveWomen is simply not dealing with the facts of the matter.

It ignores the fact that a significant amount of accusations made by women are false, dangerously false. This can be true even if claims of sexual assault are not false a majority of the time.

We should believe survivors and not simply believe women.

Not all women are victims and not all victims are women and without a doubt, at least some women are mistaken and some are willing to lie about the worst of crimes. That is an uncomfortable fact but it is one we have to deal with.

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board.

The next president of Colorado State University has some big shoes to fill. Outgoing soon to be former university President Tony Frank led CSU through a troubled economic time, and now it’s time for someone else to lead the university through a troubled political time.

The Board of Governors is putting together a committee called the Presidential Search Advisory Committee, tasked with finding Frank’s successor. This committee will aid in the search by profiling the ideal candidate, with a job description and leadership statement, which will be used in the national search for the next president.

With Frank stepping down as university president after this Spring 2019 semester, CSU has the opportunity to fill those shoes with someone who can improve upon his legacy while also making strides of their own where Frank could not.

There are, of course, certain aspects of Frank’s tenure as president that should be carried over to the next. The most important being his zero tolerance for hate speech on CSU’s campus. Over the past two years, there have been multiple instances of hate speech rearing its ugly head at CSU. Whether it be White supremacist groups attempting to enforce their bigotry on campus, or swastikas drawn, and nooses hung in the dorms, Frank was always quick to send out an email condemning these groups and their actions.

Reiterating the “No Place for H8” message and campaign formed a year ago, Frank noted that he and the University denounce any form of speech that

inflate hatred on campus. His successor must adopt this view too, as many students feel that it is the universities duty to protect them from hate speech.

Furthermore, whoever ends up stepping into Frank’s shoes should have an understanding of the issues many minorities face on our mostly White campus. Often, the marginalized have a more objective view of reality, hence the importance of their voices. At CSU, considering the past two years, minorities need to be heeded. This is something Frank seemingly didn’t have that much involvement in, but his successor most certainly should.

With this, and facts laid out in a previous Collegian editorial, perhaps it’s finally time for a woman to take on the presidency at this university. All the previous university presidents have been men, and women are underrepresented in the Board of Governors.

Women have long been a minority in CSU’s administration, so in this troublesome time, it will take someone who can truly empathize with marginalized students to aid them best.

While an email is certainly better than nothing, CSU’s next president can improve on something Frank neglected: student engagement. Emails were the closest students usually got to him, as Frank rarely appeared on campus and tweeted sparsely.

Where Frank failed, the new president should succeed. A study entitled “Presidential Engagement of Students at Minority Serving Institutions” published by the Penn Center for Minority Serving Institutions points out social media as the best way to increase social engagement with students. Using a social media account daily, posting diverse content, following students to acknowledge their existence, and sharing behind-the-scenes parts of running a university are some of their more straightforward recommendations. The study goes on to suggest photo opportunities, service events, social events, oneon-one interaction and family-ori-

ented support as vehicles to help engage students.

Engagement not only makes students feel more comfortable and welcomed on campus but is also a crucial part of success according to Washington State University Associate Vice President of Student Engagement Dr. Ellen Taylor.

“Students are most likely to succeed when they feel connected to the university,” she said. And she defines engagement as “faculty and staff recogniz[ing] the importance of every interaction with a student in developing that student’s sense of belonging.” A similar mindset should be found in CSU’s next president.

A general theme here is just overall awareness of what it means to be a student at CSU. Understanding students was something Frank struggled with, something his successor can improve upon.

With this, denouncing hate speech and bias-related incidents occurring on campus and keeping a finger on the pulse of student life should be a priority for our new president. Overall, the quality of empathy should be at the top of the PSAC’s list. I’m proud to be a CSU Ram, and I hope the new president gives me more reasons to be.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Rams run away in rout over Eastern Washington in season opener

By Mack Beaulieu @Mack_Covers

The Colorado State women’s basketball team got off to a rocky start in its season opener, but a hot shooting second half from a group of young Rams helped them outpace Eastern Washington University, 72-46.

The Rams got big contributions from sophomores Lore Devos and Lena Svanholm. Preseason newcomer of the year, junior Mollie Mounsey, shook off any jitters towards the end of the second half. Early on though, it was a surprisingly close game with the Greyhounds after the Rams won by 40 points last year.

“We’ve just got to be a stronger basketball team, a tougher-minded basketball team,” Coach Ryun Williams said.

“Some kids had individual performances there in the second half ... but overall, my standard and I hope their standard is a little different. We should be playing a little tougher and more determined basketball than we did in that first half.”

The Rams got off to a quick start behind the inside presence of senior Tatum Neubert and Svanholm, who combined for eight of the teams’ first eleven points. Svanholm opened up with a three and then capitalized on her 6-foot-6-inch frame and scored an easy two points.

Rams sharpshooter Mounsey drained her first three as a Ram in the regular season with

about 3:57 minutes remaining in the first.

It was a welcome sight for the Rams, who went 3-8 from outside in the first period. Everyone expects Mounsey to be making three’s all season. But if her teammates can knock down shots, it would mean a lot to a Rams team that had the nation’s 40th best defense last year.

“We’ve just got to be a stronger basketball team, a tougher-minded basketball team ... We should be playing a little tougher and more determined basketball than we did in that first half.”

RYUN WILLIAMS HEAD COACH

“She’s the best shooter in the gym every night,” Williams said. “I think when you’re a scorer you’re going to have to shoot some extra shots. I want her to have more of a green light mentality, so to speak.”

The sheer volume of outside shots the Greyhounds was launching helped keep them in the game through the first quarter until they started to get physical on the boards as well as driving to the rim. That helped the Greyhounds to take their

first lead with 3:17 left in the second. The Greyhounds spread the ball around, but their guard play keyed the late first-half run that gave the visitors a 27-26 lead at the half.

Devos came out firing in the second half, scoring the Rams’ first six points. The Rams’ defense clamped down as well compared to the first half. They were able to get hands in the passing lanes constantly and handled switches well enough to get a hand in the face of the Greyhounds’ shooters. The visitors didn’t score until 2:51 minutes remained in the third.

Mounsey had been quiet up until a buzzer beater before the final period, but the fourth quarter started with Mounsey in a lead guard role and she showed she’s more than a shooter with a nice transition assist to start the quarter’s scoring and then a couple minutes later hit her third three of the game.

From there, things began to unwind for the Greyhounds as they carried over turnover issues from the third quarter.

Turnovers were huge in this game, with the Greyhounds committing more than twice as many in the second half as they did in the first.

Svanholm and Mounsey both had their moments in the second half, propelling mini-runs.

Mounsey moved the ball well on top of her shooting and Svanholm was ready to shoot when the ball got to her.

“I think the way we were

moving the ball tonight and the way they were getting it to me fit me really well,” Svanholm said.

“But I should be making those on the worst nights.”

However, it was Devos who really took the game over. The guard poured in 16 points in the second half on 7-9 shooting to help put the Greyhounds away.

Ultimately though, the game was a mixed bag for the Rams in a match that looked to be more

lopsided than it turned out to be.

“The thing that I don’t think should take time is your effort and how hard you play,” Williams said. “It has everything to do with just saying, ‘Alright, I’m going to go get it. I’m going to out battle my person.’ I don’t care if you’re a freshman or a senior ... Show us some fight, and I think that’s where this team can really grow.”

CSU’s Women for Wild Lands promotes activism

By Linc Thomas @lincthomas1

The outdoors is meant for everyone to share, but for many the outdoors doesn’t seem as inviting. Women for Wild Lands is changing the perception of wilderness, especially for women, in order to reconnect to the world around us.

Women for Wild Lands began in 2016 in Carbondale, Colorado. The Colorado State University chapter was started the same year as an extension of the organization, yet still embodies the fundamental creed: protect public lands and provide a welcoming environment where women can experience the outdoors without intimidation.

“Our main purpose is to protect to public lands,” Co-President of Women for Wild Lands Caitlin Cunningham said. “The motto we’re centered around is ‘keeping public lands in public hands.’”

“Wildlands” refer to federal and public lands that are preserved by taxpayer dollars.

“We have more freedom to utilize our public lands than federal lands,” said Kerrigan Reading, the other co-president for the group. “We need to take advantage of the lands we already own. Our most recent trip was this past weekend at Canyonlands National Park Needles District. Twelve club members caravaned to a (Bureau of Land Management) campsite near Hamburger Rock. We hiked 10 miles on Big Spring Squall Trail, and it was the dopest group site I’ve ever seen. We camped in a pristine valley underneath the Wooden Shoe Arch surrounded by wilderness.”

The Bureau of Land Management is a government organization that manages the public lands. A significant benefit of public lands is that campsites are free to all. For any college student looking for

a unique place to get away, the free campsites are a great place to go, especially since booking a campsite elsewhere can be expensive.

“W4WL is pro-BLM campsites,” Reading said. “Most people don’t know about them, and they surround most national parks. The only rules are that you must be 200 feet from a water source or roads.”

The BLM allows free-range cattle, campsites and biking trails. Women for Wild Lands kindly ask that when you take advantage of BLM sites, you respect the sites and don’t feed the wildlife.

The club also writes letters to senators. Last year, prior to Grand Staircase Escalante and Bears Ears National Monuments being shrunk courtesy of the Trump administration and while The Continental Divide Act sought to be passed, Women for Wild Lands reached out to elected officials to fight for their public lands. They believe that letter-writing meetings are an activity that positively impacts the CSU community by educating students on how to ensure their voices are heard by their representatives.

“We are always looking for advocates and allies to promote women in the outdoors,” said Claire Goldstein, member of W4WL.w “Women can climb, women can hike and women can do math.”

MORE INFORMATION ■ Women for Wild Lands meets bi-

weekly on Wednesdays, either in the Warner College building or at members’ homes for potlucks. For more information, contact Caitlin Cunningham at 1caitlinc@gmail.com.

Linc Thomas can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

Women for Wildlands is not a gender-exclusive club, but it is a womenled club that promotes activism in th wilderness.

Rihanna sends Trump a cease-and-desist letter after he played her song at a rally

By Nardine Saad Los Angeles Times

After learning that Trump played her 2007 hit “Don’t Stop the Music” at his Chattanooga, Tenn., rally on Sunday, the hitmaker’s legal team sent a ceaseand-desist letter to Trump’s White House counsel Emmet Flood saying as much – and accusing POTUS of copyright infringement.

“It has come to our attention that President Donald Trump has utilized Ms. Fenty’s musical compositions and master recordings, including her hit track ‘Don’t Stop the Music,’ in connection with a number of political events held across the United States,” according to Monday’s letter, which The Times has obtained.

The Barbadian artist, real name Robyn Fenty, has “not provided her consent” for Trump to use her music and “such use is therefore improper,” the letter added. It also said that Rihanna “will not grant” Trump the requisite authorization or permission to publicly perform or otherwise broadcast or disseminate any of her music.

RiRi’s attorney, Jordan M. Siev, argued that Trump’s unauthorized use of her music “has created the false impression” that she supports and endorses him and that she pro-

Rhianna performs at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California, Sunday, February 12, 2012. Rhianna recently sent a cease-and-desist letter to President Trump’s team after one of her hits was reportedly played at a Trump rally.

vided her consent for him to use her work. The use has also “caused confusion among her fan base as to her political support and affiliation,” Siev wrote.

The nine-time Grammy winner is the latest artist attempting to bar the Republican president from using her music at his events. Pharrell Williams, Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and the Prince estate have also issued similar warnings to the Trump administration.

On Tuesday, Rihanna, who endorsed Democrat Andrew Gillum in the Florida gubernatorial race, tweeted about the midterm elections, calling election day “the most important day for the rest of your lives.”

“If you’re tired of complaining about the state of the country and government, get up and #VOTE!!!” the 30-year-old tweeted.

Who Gives a SCRAP reduces, reuses and recycles art materials

By Graham Shapley @shapleygraham

A table of uncanny dolls rests near a bin full of old computer parts and a rotating magazine stand full of unused sheet music. Game pieces and cards are in another bin, and there is a whole wall of stamp bins. Welcome to Who Gives a SCRAP, a “creative reuse” retailer in Fort Collins.

Not only can art supplies be expensive, but there also comes the question of where to get unorthodox supplies. What if an artist wants an old-fashioned baby doll or a license plate? For store manager Carly Blewitt, this is one of her major goals.

“We want to make it more accessible, and make it easier to try new things in the art world,” said Blewitt. “Buying supplies new can be very expensive, which can deter people from starting new things because you don’t want to drop all this money on stuff you might not end up liking.”

Who Gives a SCRAP has been open for about 2-and-ahalf years as of May 2018 on the corner of Shields and Drake.

Its primary objective is higher-minded than merely providing affordability for creative projects.

“Our main mission is trash diversion and waste diversion,”

said Blewitt. “We are taking all of these arts-and-crafts hobby supplies in the hope that it will stay out of the landfills and to provide a good resource for people in the community.”

Recently, Blewitt has had discussions with Colorado State University about providing scrap cloth bins for the Design and Merchandising Department for students in the apparel design concentration.

These bins would provide students with extra pieces of fabric without having to waste a fresh piece.

“We are taking all of these arts-and-crafts hobby supplies in the hope that it will stay out of the landfills and to provide a good resource for people in the community.”

CARLY BLEWITT WHO GIVES A SCRAP MANAGER

“(The Design and Merchandising Department) has a great interest in social responsibility as it relates to the textile industry,” said Karen Hyllegard, head of the department. “It’s our responsibility to teach (our students) about it. The issue of

sustainability is complex, and we’re trying to change the industry and change the public.”

Who Gives a SCRAP is committed to environmentalism and reusability, but they see a lot of change that needs to be made in both public and private sectors.

“I’ve seen this movement of people using canvas bags instead of plastic shopping bags, which is awesome,” said Lisa Dratch, the director of community engagement for Who Gives a SCRAP. “But I should tell you that I’ve pulled more boxes of unused plastic bags out of dumpsters than me, you and everyone you know will use in their lifetimes. Yes, it’s important to carry those canvas bags, but we also need to put more pressure on the organizations that we support to do their part and take those extra steps.”

Of course, the things that already exist tend to pile up, leading to the disorganized nature of Who Gives a SCRAP. “(Our biggest challenge) is that we’ve gotten an amazing response from the community, so we’ve got a lot of stuff,” said Blewitt. “Being able to take all of it, clean and process it, keep it organized and under control - it takes a lot of patience. We have to know that we’ll never have this perfect. We rely heavily on volunteers.”

Right now, the store pre-

dominantly receives their products from individual donations. Blewitt says people will bring what they can fit in their car or carry, but a giant donation will occasionally come in as well. Walking into the store, a customer will be greeted by an overwhelming amount of supplies and oddities. Although intimidating, Dratch and other artists draw inspiration from the disorder.

“That’s a lot of my artistic background, is found objects,” said Dratch. “In a world where you can order the perfect thing and have it shipped at great ex-

pense to our natural resources, it’s a little bit different coming into a store like this and taking inspiration from the things that already exist.”

MORE INFORMATION ■ Who Gives a SCRAP is open Mon-

day through Saturday on the southwest corner of the Drake and Shields intersection.
