Chasing fame: Students reflect on large social media followings By Henry Netherland @NetherlandHenry

With the increasing ubiquity of social media, access to fame seems easier than ever. Anyone with access to a decent camera can attract attention through their personality, talents or by exploiting their platform’s algorithm. According to Google Trends, the term “clout” skyrocketed into the public dialect as re-

cently as August 2017. Many have begun to use “clout” and “clout chasing” in relation to attempting online fame. Urban Dictionary defines “clout chaser” as “a person that only hangs with certain people or starts beef with people to gain popularity.” A recent example of clout chasing occurred with rapper Kid Buu, whose real name is Markquez Lao Santiago. Through a YouTube confession

from an ex-girlfriend, Buu was revealed to be a convicted child abuser who repeatedly lied about various aspects of his life including his age. He claimed to be 23 when he was actually 30 at the time. Before these revelations, Buu seemed to have a significant online following with millions of streams for his songs and associations with established rappers like Trippie Redd. This also turned out

to be fabricated. “No Jumper” podcast host Adam22 provided evidence from social media analytics website Social Blade that showed unusual spikes in popularity for Buu. According to Adam22, this proved that Buu was consistently purchasing bots to act as followers to seem he more popular than he actually was. Colorado State University apparel and merchandising senior Ray Mancini Jr. has ac-

quired almost 85,000 followers on Instagram through his participation in a YouTube series called, “@SummerBreak” and explains the reality of social media expectations. Mancini Jr. said people are attracted to the lifestyles they see on social media. “The perception of people’s lives on Instagram isn’t the same as their real

Political science enrollment increases at CSU, nationwide By Blake O’Brien @BTweetsOB

When President Donald Trump goes somewhere, so does the attention. So, it’s no surprise that enrollment in political science programs has skyrocketed since the 2016 elections. Colorado State University’s Office of Institutional Research, Planning and Effectiveness reports the number of primary political science majors at CSU increased from 271 to 413 between Fall 2014 and Fall 2018. Eighty-nine percent of this increase occurred between Fall 2016 and this semester. Students who are double-majoring select one primary major, which means their second major is not counted in this enrollment data. “It’s exciting,” said Michele Betsill, a professor and chair of the department of political science. “Our goal is to help people to engage civically and civilly in the public arena. So, the more people we can get coming through our doors, the better.” The numbers are staggering compared to other CSU de-

partments. Total enrollment in the College of Liberal Arts decreased by 102 over the same time period that the department of political science increased its number of primary majors by 142 students.

“To use a famous phrase attributed to Gandhi, ‘You must be the change you wish to see. I think people realized that wasn’t just something you put at the end of the email. You actually have to live that.” ERIC FATTOR POLITICAL SCIENCE PROFESSOR

“We’re filling classes,” Betsill said. “Our upper division classes are capped at 40 (students), and we’re to the point where classes are full and there’s often waitlists.” Though the department hasn’t added any additional professors — except for those

replacing faculty who’ve left — more sections of courses have been added to accommodate a growing number of students. And these increases aren’t just at CSU. Political science departments at colleges across the nation are seeing an influx of new students. According to a survey conducted by the American Political Science Association, 48 percent of political science departments increased enrollment between 2017 and 2018, compared to only 32 percent between 2015 and 2016. Of the departments surveyed, 40.9 percent attributed the increase to greater political interest, the 2016 election and/ or President Trump, according to the APSA. Eric Fattor, a political science professor at CSU, said the election of President Trump sprung some people into action. “To use a famous phrase attributed to Gandhi, ‘You must be the change you wish to see,’” Fattor said. “I think people realized that wasn’t just something you put at the end of the email. You actually have to live that.”

CSU Online grows revenue, course offerings with steady intention By Samantha Ye @samxye4

Colorado State University Online has been breaking their own records at a comfortable pace, just the way they like it. Over the last 10 years, the University division has more than doubled their gross revenue while also growing their course offerings and student audience. CSU Online, formally known as the Division of Continuing Education, runs the operations for the University’s online programs and courses from campus. Unlike CSU-Global Campus, the University’s purely online branch, CSU Online is embedded within the main campus. They currently offer 1,105 credit courses, 337 noncredit courses and 10 free online courses from all eight colleges and nearly all departments and special academic units. Courses are designed to maintain the integrity of campus programs, Senior Director Amy Smith wrote in an email to The Collegian. “For us, we are in every school and every department, part of the fiber of campus,” Smith said at the October Board of Governors meeting. “That’s who we ultimately serve and our ultimate mission.” Students can get everything from a graduate degree to a set of digital badges to demonstrate their experience with a skill through CSU Online. They currently offer eight undergraduate degrees, 11 undergraduate minors and 34 graduate certificates, among a collection of other programs. The largest offering is in the 38 master’s degrees, partly since the online environment attracts a very different student population.

Out of the unit’s 10,791 students last year, only 2,046 students were on-campus. Forty-four percent of CSU Online credit students were between the ages of 25 and 34, and 58 percent were located outside of Colorado in the last school year. “Online students have different demographics, motivations and needs than students on campus,” Smith wrote. “They are often balancing full-time jobs and families while seeking career advancement.” These mostly adult, working students select their programs quickly and rely on internet searches to find institutions offering the programs they are looking for, Smith wrote. Students tend to be price-sensitive since location is not a barrier but will pay more for perceived quality.

“For us, we are in every school and every department, part of the fiber of campus. That’s who we ultimately serve and our ultimate mission.” AMY SMITH SENIOR DIRECTOR OF CONTINUING EDUCATION ADMINISTRATION.

In the last three years, the University has added 33 certificates, 10 degrees and four minors. CSU Online’s largest increases come from undergraduate degree students and graduate certificate students, Smith wrote. This is in part due to de-

mand for more flexible options to complete a bachelor’s degree and shorter, specific and career-relevant education programs such as non-credit or credit certificates. Revenue-wise, CSU Online grew the most from 2006 to 2012, averaging a 19 percent increase each year, with growth almost every year since. The 2018 fiscal year brought in the highest gross revenue yet of $39.8 million, a six percent increase from the previous year. Nearly $25 million of that went back into funding the colleges and departments which provide the courses. Revenue also covers the division’s operating expenses, program management, student services, infrastructure maintenance and other improvements. The largest amount of $9 million, or 38 percent of the total, went to the College of Business. Distributions to other colleges were to Health and Human Science at 19 percent, Liberal Arts at 14 percent and Natural Sciences at 11 percent. Natural Resources and Engineering received 6 and 5 percent, respectively. “We consider this a proud tradition,” Smith said to the Board of Governors. “This is a way we partner with (colleges) and help them create revenue to feed their visions and missions.” Percent of total revenue distributed to colleges has plateaued in recent years as CSU Online has developed their noncredit offerings. This includes building their partnerships with businesses to provide specialized professional training and an increase in hobby courses like gardening. Noncredit offerings range from an ergonomics certificate to digital badges on living mindfully to single classes.

Enrollment Police investigating robbery at Chase Bank on Magnolia Street >> from page 3

By Samantha Ye @samxye4

Detectives are actively investigating a bank robbery which took place Wednesday afternoon at Chase Bank located at 1275 E. Magnolia St. According to a press release, Fort Collins Police responded to the report of a robbery at 2:17 p.m. The suspect, an adult male wearing a hat and face mask, demanded money from a bank employee. After he obtained an undis-

closed amount of cash, the suspect left the scene on foot. There was no weapon displayed, and no one was injured, according to the release. The police encourage anyone with additional information about this case to contact Detective Bryan Vogel at 970-416-2392 or Crime Stoppers of Larimer County at 970221-6868 or www.stopcriminals. org. Callers can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a cash reward. Samantha Ye can be reached at news@collegian.com.

This was true both for people in favor and opposed to President Trump — those inspired by his raw, unpolished rhetoric and those who vehemently disagree with it. And it’s not like President Trump to shy away from the spotlight, Fattor said. “He is somebody who likes to have all the attention,” he said. “He feeds off of the partisanship. He likes to be in the media spotlight.” But, according to CSU professors, President Trump and the 2016 elections aren’t solely responsible for the increase in enrollment throughout political science departments. Fattor said young people

The roots of CSU Online began in 1967 with the Center for Continuing Education. That year, Lionel V. Baldwin, former Dean of Engineering, established the University’s first distance learning program. Of course, back then the distance courses were just tapes of the classroom lectures engineering students could view at their convenience. Now, with the CCE evolved into CSU Online, students of all programs can participate in classes through online video chats, podcasts and digital texts, online practice problems and more of the classic video lectures. And CSU Online’s role may only grow more prevalent. Nationally, the number of higher

education students enrolled in at least one distance education course is growing faster in recent years while overall higher education enrollment is falling, according to a recent study by Babson Survey Research Group. Demand for online learning is increasing, and CSU Online’s steady but significant expansion is there to make use of it. “The face of higher education is changing and CSU Online helps to keep CSU competitive by staying abreast of trends and connecting faculty and administrators to innovative ways to keep our offerings relevant to today’s students and students of the future,” Smith wrote.

wide. Betsill said the political science department at CSU started changing things about five years ago when there was a dip in enrollment. Among other things, the department recently completed the Straayer Center for Public Service Leadership and reinvented the Political Science Club. According to the APSA survey, 72.5 percent of the departments reported that the increases were in part due to institutional or departmental factors. “The stars aligned in a particular way that students were drawn to political science, and then they saw that we were doing things within the department that were very exciting,” Betsill said.

ASCSU president vetoes bill regarding elections manager position By Stuart Smith @stuartsmithnews

Following the veto of a job description bill by Associated Students of Colorado State University President Tristan Syron, the Senate decided to scrap it and rewrite the job description next semester. The bill, which would change the job description of the Elections Manager, who runs the ASCSU elections in the second half of spring semester, passed through the Senate 44-0-1 last week. Because President Syron was in Denver for CSU’s Board of Governors meeting, Chief of Staff Zachary Vaishampayan read his veto message to the Senate. “This (veto) didn’t need to happen,” Syron wrote. “This bill was brought to the floor, expedited and delivered to me without ever getting the chance to read it prior ... I hope this veto is the exception, not the norm.” There was a laundry list of problems with the original bill President Syron vetoed, including unclear hours and higher requirements for the job than in the past, such as GPA. Under that bill, the

Elections Manager would also be paid $25 an hour, assuming they stop working after the election is over. In total, the job would last eight weeks. After the explanation for the

veto, the Senate voted almost unanimously to reverse the previous decision. Budgetary Affairs Committee Chair Alissa Threatt then introduced a revised version of the bill with relevant changes addressing those concerns.

Some of those included changing the last date of the job description from May 31 to the end of elections, removing some repeated requirements, lowering the required GPA for the job from 2.5 to 2.25, with preferred GPAs of 2.5 or 2.75, and lowering the compensation for the job from $25 to $16.20 an hour. A motion was made to expedite the bill so the Senate would vote on it that night, but they instead chose to vote on the bill next semester because only a few senators had actually read the bill for themselves. Syron’s campaign slogan while running for President was “setting the standard,” and he said that carried through into his administration as well. But according to him, the Senate failed at that. “No bill should ever reach my desk with some of the glaring mistakes I see,” Syron wrote. “In the future, I expect us to critically evaluate pay, hours and job tasks to a higher degree… it doesn’t meet the standards that I promised the student body I would adhere to.” Stuart Smith can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Grand jury investigating USC gynecologist accused of sexual abuse By Harriet Ryan & Matt Hamilton Los Angeles Times

Los Angeles County prosecutors have convened a grand jury to hear evidence about Dr. George Tyndall, the University of Southern California gynecologist accused of sexually abusing hundreds of patients during three decades at a campus health clinic, according to two sources familiar with the case. The panel began calling witnesses last month, the sources told the Los Angeles Times. On Wednesday, reporters observed the sex crimes prosecutor overseeing the Tyndall investigation in conversation with clinic employees outside the grand jury room in a downtown Los Angeles criminal courthouse. One of the clinic employees was summoned into the grand jury room for more than 90 minutes while others were told to return later to testify. The prosecutor, Deputy District Attorney Reinhold Mueller Jr., declined to comment on the grand jury, but confirmed that he and two other prosecutors were assigned to the case. “Our office is thoroughly reviewing all complaints that

have been presented to us,” Mueller told the Times last week. Tyndall, 71, has denied any wrongdoing. His attorney, Leonard Levine, declined to comment but said in a statement that “Tyndall welcomes any fair and objective examination of his conduct while he was employed as a gynecologist at USC.” Los Angeles Police Department detectives have been collecting evidence in the case since May, when the Times first revealed that Tyndall had been accused repeatedly of inappropriately touching patients and making suggestive remarks about their bodies. A team of investigators crisscrossed the country this summer and fall, interviewing scores of alumnae about their experiences with Tyndall. Detectives also scrutinized evidence seized from the doctor’s apartment and a storage locker in a raid earlier this year. Ultimately, detectives presented 85 cases to prosecutors for potential criminal charges, according to a spokesman for the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office. One woman who worked

A student ‘upset’ by early morning test threatened to kill his professor, cops By Madeleine Marr Miami Herald

Rafael Decomas isn’t a morning person. The Florida Atlantic University student was arrested Wednesday after campus police say he threatened to kill his teacher on Twitter for scheduling an exam too early. According to an arrest report obtained by The Miami Herald, a Tweet from the @ Ashelaniqua, Cutie Claus handle posted about 1 a.m. last Tuesday, sounded ominous. It read: “Bey I gern f*-ing kill dis professor bey this is my confession to a premeditated murder.” After a brief online investigation, authorities were able to track down the account to the 20-year-old Riviera Beach resident, who later admitted he was “upset” that his data structure professor had scheduled a final for 7 a.m. at the Boca Raton university.

Decomas’ commute means he would have had to set his alarm for 5 a.m.

“Decomas stated he did not intend to harm anyone and tweeted the post out of frustration.” ARREST REPORT COURTESY OF THE MIAMI HERALD

“Decomas stated he did not intend to harm anyone and tweeted the post out of frustration,” the report said. “Decomas advised that he deleted the post soon after publishing it.” Palm Beach County jail records show Decomas was released on a $5,000 bond. Court records show he was charged with sending a written threat to kill or do bodily injury. Content pulled from Tribune News Service.

with Tyndall for several years said she was called before the grand jury last month. “They had a lot of questions. A lot of questions,” she said. A prosecutor told her not to discuss the proceedings, she said. It is somewhat uncommon for state prosecutors to seek a grand jury indictment. Most suspects are charged in court papers and prosecutors then lay out their case through witness testimony at a public preliminary hearing. The accused are permitted to present a defense and call their own witnesses. It’s up to a judge to decide whether there is enough evidence for a trial. Grand jury proceedings, however, are secret, and in many cases defendants and their attorneys do not even know they are occurring. There is no cross-examination of witnesses. Former sex crimes prosecutor Robin Sax, who worked in the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office for a decade, said grand juries can allow prosecutors to assess the credibility of victims discreetly. “It becomes almost (the district attorney’s) own mock trial,” said Sax, who is now in

private practice. “If (a victim) can’t make it with just the D.A. asking questions, then you are going to have serious issues with a defense attorney asking questions.” Grand juries can also speed the progress of cases, said Patrick Dixon, the former head of special operations and major crimes in the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office. “Typically a grand jury hearing that takes a week might take two, three or four weeks in a preliminary hearing because of cross-examination,” Dixon said. Part of the district attorney’s evaluation of the Tyndall case entails re-interviewing each of the alleged victims, Mueller said. Those interviews are standard for sex crimes cases and allow alleged victims to feel comfortable with prosecutors and prosecutors to get a sense of their credibility and potential effectiveness as witnesses, he said. “We are aggressively reviewing all the evidence,” he said. There are unique aspects to the Tyndall case. Most of the hundreds of women who have formally accused him of wrong-

doing did so only after reading the newspaper’s investigation into the physician. Some have said that Tyndall was the first gynecologist they had met and they had no point of reference at the time for what was appropriate in terms of a physician’s touching and remarks. It was mainly clinic staff members who accompanied Tyndall during physical exams who reported him to university administrators. In November, LAPD detectives and Mueller, the lead prosecutor, went to the USC campus to meet with staffers at Engemann Student Health Center, according to a person who attended the gathering. A group of employees, including nurses, medical assistants and doctors, were given an overview of the grand jury process and told they would probably be subpoenaed to appear before the grand jury. In October, USC announced it would pay $215 million to settle a class-action lawsuit filed on behalf of Tyndall’s patients, the first in what is expected to be a wave of payouts stemming from the case.

Quora reports data breach affecting 100 million users By Jim Puzzanghera

to meet that responsibility.”

Los Angeles Times

Quora, a question-and-answer website, has reported a data breach affecting about 100 million users. In a blog post, Chief Executive Adam D’Angelo said user account information such as user names, email addresses, encrypted passwords and data imported from linked networks “may have been compromised.” Users’ histories — including public questions and answers, as well as comments and votes, along with nonpublic actions such as answer requests and direct messages — also might have been compromised. “We are working rapidly to investigate the situation further and take the appropriate steps to prevent such incidents in the future,” D’Angelo wrote Monday night. “It is our responsibility to make sure things like this don’t happen, and we failed

“This is just a really great reminder for everyone that if you’re going to chat on social media or any other websites, it’s a great idea to have a throwaway email not connected to your work and not your primary personal email. It just makes all the sense in the world to not make it your favorite email. If it’s hacked, you delete it.” PAM DIXON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE WORLD PRIVACY FORUM, A NONPROFIT PUBLIC INTEREST GROUP

A privately held company founded in 2009 and based in Mountain View, Calif., Quora says its mission “is to share and grow the world’s knowledge.” Users can pose questions on the site about a variety of issues, and other users can answer them. In September, Quora reported it had surpassed 300 million unique visitors a month. The data breach “is nothing like” the massive one announced Friday by Marriott International Inc. but it still raises concerns, said Pam Dixon, executive director of the World Privacy Forum, a nonprofit public interest group. The Marriott breach lasted four years and compromised the information of as many as 500 million of its hotel guests worldwide. For about 327 million, the stolen data may have included important personal information such as birth dates and passport numbers. Dixon said that type of data made the

breach much more significant than Quora’s, which did not include such information. “The main issue here is going to be phishing,” Dixon said of Quora’s breach. Phishing emails seek to trick a person into clicking on a link that allows the scammer to get personal information or puts malware programs on the person’s computer. The phishing potential could be significant if data that Quora imported from other networks included things like contact lists or full Facebook profiles. Quora did not specify the type of information involved. “This is just a really great reminder for everyone that if you’re going to chat on social media or any other websites, it’s a great idea to have a throwaway email not connected to your work and not your primary personal email,” Dixon said. “It just makes all the sense in the world to not make it your fa-

vorite email. If it’s hacked, you delete it.” Quora discovered Friday that a “malicious third party” had gained unauthorized access to one of its systems. “We’re very sorry for any concern or inconvenience this may cause,” D’Angelo said. The company is still investigating the incident and has “retained a leading digital forensics and security firm to assist us,” he said. Quora is notifying users whose data have been compromised, logging them out of the site and invalidating their passwords. “While the passwords were encrypted ... it is generally a best practice not to reuse the same password across multiple services, and we recommend that people change their passwords if they are doing so,” D’Angelo said.

Trump to blame for violence surrounding migrant caravan Abby Vander Graaff @abbym_vg

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. About a week ago, the United States government used tear gas to “defend” the U.S.-Mexico border from the migrant caravan. This action has confirmed fears of immigrants across the country that they are not wanted, including members of the Colorado State University community. Our government must stop sending the message that searching for a better life makes you a criminal. According to BBC News and other news sources, the caravan consists of people from Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala, at least 5,000 of whom intend to seek asylum in the United States.

According to the American Immigration Council, political asylum is “a protection granted to foreign nationals already in the United States or at the border who meet the international law definition of a ‘refugee.’” This means that individuals seeking asylum do so to avoid the dangers in their native countries. Those in the caravan want to come to the United States because they believe our nation can provide them with the most basic necessities that many of us take for granted every day, such as safety and quality of life. But this story is not the one Donald Trump wants us to hear. The president has been denouncing the caravan for weeks now, tweeting that “Mexico should move the flag waving Migrants, many of whom are stone cold criminals, back to their countries...they are NOT coming to the USA.” Throughout his presidency, Trump has made a hobby out of blindly demonizing immigrants.

In a nation where the president puts immigrant children in cages, advocates for building a wall to keep them out and proudly names himself a combatant of “illegal” immigrants wherever he goes, it should come as no shock that an encounter such as this one began with violence.

“The people in this caravan don’t have the motivation of criminals; they have the motivation of people in a fight for their lives.” The president needs to recognize the impact that his combatant nationalistic views have on real people. To make it to the border, those in the migrant caravan traveled 2,500 miles. For reference, that distance is longer than the Appalachian Trail­ —which only 20 percent of its hikers

complete. To me, this makes the migrants’ necessity to flee home all the more valid. Those in the caravan did not have the option to stop. For many, the decision to press on or turn around was one of life or death. Known as the the Northern Triangle, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador rank among the most violent countries not at war in the world, according to the Council on Foreign Relations. The people in this caravan don’t have the motivation of criminals; they have the motivation of people in a fight for their lives. Despite all of this, they arrived at the U.S. border. When they did, they were met with violence. It is true someone from the crowd threw rocks at officials. It is also true, according to the New York Times, that the notoriously inhumane Nigerian Army has since used Trump’s words to defend killing 40 indi-

viduals and wounding 100 after rocks were thrown during a protest. Trump did not advise the Nigerian Army to do this, but his ideology condoned it. No matter the context, the thoughtless, hate-condoning words and actions from our president have to stop. CSU is a home to both documented and undocumented immigrants. They are our friends, professors and neighbors. How can we, valuing these people in our own communities, allow the maltreatment of others in the same situation? President Trump sees migrants seeking asylum as dangerous, ready to storm the border as “stone cold criminals.” We must make it clear that we do not support his actions. If Trump wants to represent his citizens, he must stop demonizing people who simply want a better life. Abby Vander Graaff can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

Psychedelic drug research is beneficial for mental health Shay Rego @shay_rego

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. Psychedelic drugs are used as a means of having a good time and expanding one’s mind. Drugs such as magic mushrooms, DMT and LSD are among the most common forms of psychedelics. Being in college, you may have taken psychedelics recreationally. If not, then we all know someone who has. While psychedelics are fun, scientific research is finally making the change to show its purposes medicinally. Psychedelics have been used for thousands of years in other cultures as medicine and finding spiritual enlightenment. Only recently has the United States begun toying with the idea of using psychedelics as an alternate form of treatment for various mental illnesses. Studies in other countries show how psychedelics change the chemistry of the brain. The journal Neuroscience & Behavioral Reviews published a new review this year about how just one psychedelic trip leads to positive changes in personality. Other studies, such as the one conducted by Cell Reports, prove how psychedelics promote synapse connections and plasticity.

Psilocybin is the main psychoactive ingredient in magic mushrooms. It is currently the main drug being tested for treating depression. There are some other clinical trials testing the effects of psilocybin on other mental illnesses such as post-traumatic stress disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, MRI images show the physical changes of the brain with depression treated with and without psychedelics. There is clearly decreased negatve reactivity and connections in the brain after being dosed.

“Psychedelics have been used for thousands of years in other cultures as medicine and finding spirtual enlightenment.” Studies outside of the U.S. have conducted trials on how magic mushrooms affect the brain. One study from the Imperial College in London, the first to use psilocybin for depression, shows that mushrooms can “reset” brain circuits in a depressed individual and reduce symptoms. During the trip, the brain disintegrates various networks and during the “come down” there is a re-integration of these networks. Patients reported the effects lasted up to five weeks. A company called COMPASS Pathways has received approval from the FDA to

NOPE

&

conduct clinical trials in the U.S. on the effects of psilocybin on the brain. The company founded in 2016 with the goal of taking a different approach to treating mental health. Their trial is currently in phase IIb, meaning 216 real patients are taking part in the study with various monitored dose-ranges. Another study approved for trials at John Hopkins University suggests reclassifying psilocybin from a Schedule I drug to a Schedule IV drug. In order for the Food and Drug Administration to approve that switch, it is estimated there will be a minimum of five years of extensive study and trials. Due to the studies supporting the positive effects of psilocybin, Colorado is looking to decriminalize psychedelic mushrooms. The Denver Psychoactive Mushroom Decriminalization Initiative is working towards gathering votes to propose its decriminalization statewide on the 2019 ballot. The Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies has been studying the use of MDMA for the treatment of PTSD. One of the study sites is right here in Fort Collins. After the nationwide fame of the first state to legalize of cannabis, psilocybin trials and decriminalization is the next big move for Colorado. LSD, DMT and MDMA seem to be the next target for larger focus psychedelic testing. Psilocybin could be the next groundbreaking treatment for otherwise very difficult treatment of debilitating mental illnesses. Shay Rego can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

There is extreme bias towards Republicans in America Wyatt Hansen @hansolo1610

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. American politics is seeing a large increase in interest as media and news dominate the information being presented to the American people. Because of this, it is no surprise we have seen a rise in “fake news” targeted towards conservatives. The Republican Party is at the front of this “fake news” epidemic and combating media bias for everything in America right now. The University of Michigan found that most news outlets lean left, and it

has become extremely apparent to Republicans across the country. Liberal media has taken it in their own hands to skew information and lead American citizens to believe what they want about conservatives in this country. If you’re like me, then you can see a lot of the bias happening around campus here at Colorado State University. Students welcomed Bernie Sanders with open arms to talk on campus while Dennis Prager was ridiculed and told he shouldn’t be allowed to speak. Although Republican events are often turned down due to protests and violence, the Bernie Sanders rally had similar attributes this year. Turning Point USA is also often turned down, and protests to keep the organization off campus happen every year. Free speech on campus is a right for all students. Unfortunately for conser-

vatives, liberals don’t want to hear or see Republicans being represented on campus. There is a bias towards Republicans at CSU and on college campuses across the country.

“The Republican Party is at the front of this ‘fake news’ epidemic and combating media bias for everything in America right now.” Fox News reported how just recently, conservatives at the University of Texas at Austin had their signs torn down by leftist mobs. Anthony Delcafino, a junior at UT said, “Instead of engaging in civil discourse and discussing the topic peacefully, an angry, leftist mob formed and began

screaming expletives, verbal threats, and destroying our signs.” If the roles were reversed and a conservative dared touch, let alone tear down a liberal’s sign, the media would be up in arms and the left would be outraged. Meanwhile, the Democratic Socialists of America are able to freely advocate for speeches and events catered in their name. Interestingly enough, socialism is why we have a migrant caravan fleeing South America, and socialism is why France is engulfed with riots right now. In recent news, the media has casted their focus on the migrant caravan at the southern border. Media outlets are outraged at the use of tear gas and force on the migrant caravan by border patrol. They can’t help themselves but to blame President Donald Trump and his administration.

On the other hand, Fox News found that tear gas and security measures used during former President Barack Obama’s administration at the southern border went relatively un-talked about. In fact, towards the latter half of his presidency, Obama had used tear gas more than once a month on average. The media largely turned a blind eye when the Obama administration used it at the southern border during his time in office. There is an extreme bias and hate towards Republicans in America right now. According to the media, conservatives are to blame for every bad thing that happens in society. The media has played a huge role in this bias towards the Republicans in the United States and on campus. Wyatt Hansen can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

FOOTBALL

Bowl games exemplify the true meaning of college football Luke Zahlmann @lukezahlmann

In many aspects of life, being average is rewarded to some extent. Sports are usually an outlier. College football’s bowl system is one area where mediocrity is questionably rewarded. In 2018, there will be 41 bowl games, with the College Football Playoff being included in that total. At two teams per game — excluding the playoff participants who will play two — that’s 80 teams that will be participating in the college football postseason. In the entire Football Bowl Subdivision, there are a total of 129 teams. When divided by the 80 teams that will make the postseason, roughly 62 percent of teams that competed in the FBS this year will be rewarded with a trip to a bowl game, gift packs and all. For comparison, in the National Football League, the highest level of professional football, 12 of the 32 teams that compete make the postseason. That is 37.5 percent. What makes nearly double the number of teams worthy of playing past the regular season when comparing the collegiate to a professional level of the same sport? The answer is simple: Money.

No longer is the true meaning of sport and competition at the forefront. Rather, the money that is made by the people that are not even playing takes precedent. In collegiate athletics, athletes and participants on each team are not paid. Yes, the athletes are given scholarships to help fund their schooling efforts, but the people that put themselves on the line for the entertainment of others are not paid for their efforts directly.

LAST THREE BOWL GAMES FOR CSU ■ New Mexico Bowl:

CSU v. Marshall

■ Idaho Potato Bowl:

CSU v. Idaho ■ Nova Home Loans Arizona Bowl: CSU v. Nevada Last year, according to a piece published by Forbes, the Group of Five programs across the nation, including Colorado State, were given a pool north of $81 million to split among the teams that made a bowl appearance. That money is allocated by terms unbeknownst to the public, with the conferences that are outside of the Power Five following a developed formula. That amount of money, to

be split amongst the programs that win a mere half of their games, results in a gift pack for the players and a trip to various locations in the United States. Those presents pale in comparison to the minimum $75,000 bonus that CSU Coach Mike Bobo receives for winning only six games. In other words, an average job. A near-six-figure bonus goes to the coach, yet the program still benefits. The pay given to Bobo for his work is a speck of sand when compared to the funds that can be made by the university from the $81 million pool given to the programs of the Group of Five. Therein lies the problem. Athletes that compete collegiately are currently being used as pawns to further the financial gains of universities. With only 1.6 percent of athletes advancing to play pro football according to the NCAA’s official website, 98.4 percent are being used and tossed aside. As proven by the sheer amount of teams that make the postseason, their efforts are not in the spirit of competition either. Instead, schools are using their promises of future growth professionally to manipulate young men into putting their lives on the line. From 20042009, according to a report from the NCAA, 23 separate players

incurred catastrophic injuries. Those are 23 players who risked their lives for a minimal shot of making a significant amount of money playing football. The number of injuries has only risen given the nature of increased athletic prowess among participants with advances in workouts and training regimens.

“Winning isn’t everything, it’s the only thing,” Vince Lombardi once said. Sadly, the former Green Bay Packers coach couldn’t see the future of collegiate football. Luke Zahlmann can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Rams charge to double-digit win in front of mini mights in stands By Luke Zahlmann @lukezahlmann

Looking to perk up their matinee matchup, Colorado State welcomed 1574 youngsters from multiple elementary schools throughout the Poudre School District Wednesday, a decision that fueled the Rams to an upset over Northern Arizona, 65-54. “There’s something to be said about people in the seats,” Coach Ryun Williams said. “This was one of the best games we played this year.” For the early portion of the year, the Rams struggled mightily on offense. Coming into the game, the Rams averaged 52.5 points per game, dead last in the Mountain West Conference. That scoring mark came on a middle-of-thepack 36.7 percent from the field shooting mark.

“I didn’t want to disappoint the kids. We moved the ball (well) and we ran a lot. That gave us a lot of good options.” LORE DEVOS SOPHOMORE GUARD

In their lopsided win over the Lumberjacks, their troubles subsided as the hosts jumped out to a 22-9 lead early in the second quarter. On offense, the Rams were led by Preseason MW Newcomer of the Year Mollie Mounsey. After a torrid start in the team’s exhibition season, Mounsey averaged 9.5 points per game through the Rams’ first half-dozen games. That tally, though good for second on the team, paled in comparison to her 21 points-pergame mark in a pair of preseason games. With their scoring total rising, the Rams were still unable to operate efficiently from the field in the opening half, shooting below their season average (36.1). Leading the outburst instead was a 7-3 turnover margin in favor of the hosts. On the other end, the Rams held NAU’s Kaleigh Paplow in check, limiting the forward to 15 points on 5-19 shooting. A former Lutheran High School standout in Parker, Colorado, Paplow made her first appearance at Moby Arena as a collegiate player. “She’s a high-volume (shooter),” Williams said. “We wanted her shots to be contested. She’s gonna get some attempts, (but) I thought we did a nice job.”

Though their defense on Paplow remained steady, the Rams began to see issues arise that have been consistent throughout the year in the second half. A lack of scoring prowess led to a comeback from the visiting Lumberjacks after being down double-digits for much of the first half. Mounsey, the leader of the first half, began to struggle shooting, along with most of the team. After eight points in the first half, the sharpshooter hit 1-5 shots in the second half en route to a mere five points. When Mounsey began to struggle, so did the Rams’ scoring attack, now limited to inside scoring. “I think I just have to make shots,” Mounsey said. Lore Devos, the only Rams player averaging double-digit scoring on the year came through late in the game. Devos’ 18-point second-half effort paid dividends in the team’s weathering of the Lumberjacks’ run led by freshman Regan Schenck. After a scoreless first half, Schenck sank a trio of 3-point-

ers en route to an 11-point mark in the second half alone. The effort from the young guard came despite a six-point per game average through NAU’s first six contests. “We left some 3-point shooters a little free,” Williams said. “But for the most part a really nice job (by our defense). I think if we would play more consistently offensively, we wouldn’t put so much pressure on our defense.” In all, Devos scored 23 in the game, good for the second-highest mark of her career. “I didn’t want to disappoint the kids,” Devos said. “We moved the ball (well) and we ran a lot. That gave us a lot of good options.” As the Rams inch closer to their conference slate to conclude the season, the team will play host to another Arizona school in the form of No. 17 Arizona State. The showdown with the Sun Devils will tip off Sunday at 2 p.m. Luke Zahlmann can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

SPORTS FOR DUMMIES

Female athletes must learn to be physical for their safety Ashley Potts @ashleypotts09

Concussions caused by playing contact sports have been a hot topic in recent years. Most of the research has focused on men’s football for obvious reasons; playing football often entails purposely ramming into opponents as hard as possible, and the NFL is a large entity that holds a lot of attention, so it was a natural place to start a conversation. That conversation extends beyond football though. It’s been pretty unanimously agreed that women suffer just as many—if not more—contact-sport-related concussions as men. Women’s soccer and women’s ice hockey are close contenders to football in concussion frequency. When men and women compete in the same sport, women are consistently more likely to incur a concussion. Those who study concussions in sports agree on this, but they don’t agree on why. While I’m not a medical professional by any means—other than having seen every episode ever of “Grey’s Anatomy”—I have played and watched a lot of women’s sports, and I have an idea of at least one reason women get so many concussions; they aren’t taught to be physical in the same way men are. This means they’re never taught how to protect themselves from injury because they’re taught to assume it won’t happen.

“They restrict it so much that it kind of ruins the game. Being physical is part of hockey and you have to accept that ... whether (checking is) intentional or it’s not gonna happen.” CAROLINE FORSMO FORWARD

“Since women aren’t taught to use their bodies properly ... they don’t know how to receive a hit,” said Colorado State University women’s hockey forward Stephanie Talone. “I got a concussion when I was 17 because I didn’t expect to get hit, which was wrong because that’s the sport of

hockey.” Many members of the women’s club hockey team at CSU played on men’s teams where they were allowed to check, but now they are not as part of a women’s only league. “The only reason I would’ve known how to take a hit was because I played guy’s hockey,” forward Katie Hurley said. “And even then I was either brushed over because I was a girl, or they’d target me ... so I was like ‘well do I need to protect myself or not?’” As a former soccer player, I know this mindset extends beyond women’s hockey. My soccer coaches never formally taught things like slide tackling, and we practiced headers but never against each other. As a goalkeeper, the coach taught me how to stop the ball from hitting the back of the net but not how to stop cleats, knees and elbows from coming toward my face. We expected the other team to play clean, though that was rarely the case. I luckily never suffered a concussion, but I saw many teammates deal with head injuries and ACL tears due to not being taught to expect rough play. Men are taught that sports are rough and they need to be tough to compete, which means they are also taught how to anticipate hits, tackles and literal punches to the face. While violence is never “allowed” in men’s sports, it’s much more common and accepted, and general rough play is allowed to go further before refs blow the whistle. This gives the idea that those sports are just rougher. But hockey is hockey and soccer is soccer. On paper, the rules are the same. Women’s hockey doesn’t have

a written rule on the severity of checks that are allowed, it’s just not allowed to be intentional. It’s a cultural thing and can depend on the ref for that game. “They restrict it so much that it kind of ruins the game,” forward Caroline Forsmo said. “Being physical is part of hockey and you just have to accept that ... whether (checking is) intentional or not it’s gonna happen.” The general feeling is that women are weaker and therefore shouldn’t be rough because they will get hurt more easily. There are a lot of attempts to justify this with science; many concussion studies cite that women’s neck muscles are weaker, making women more likely to get a concussion when hit in the head. My personal opinion is that defending sexism with science is bullsh*t and often untrue, but I digress. There may be some science backing up why women get more concussions than men. Some talk about differences in hormones affecting how concussion symptoms are experienced. Regardless, women should be taught how to handle rough contact in contact sports. Rules making sports “safer” for women are actually perpetuating a culture where women get hurt more often due to an inability to properly protect themselves when the inevitable happens. “We should learn to use our bodies properly to be safe and be able to use (them) as an advantage when playing a game,” Talone said. “I think if we taught girls how to (be physical) we wouldn’t have so many injuries.” Ashley Potts can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

Mel Tucker hired as Colorado Buffaloes’ new football coach By Sean Keeler The Denver Post

Colorado has found its man. Finally. Mel Tucker, the former Georgia defensive coordinator, will be introduced at 10 a.m. Thursday as the new football coach at Colorado, Buffaloes’ athletic director Rick George announced Wednesday. Tucker, 46, replaces Mike MacIntyre, who was fired Nov. 18 after six seasons and a 30-44 record in Boulder. CU won 10 games under MacIntyre in 2016 but only managed 10 wins, combined, over the past two years. George proposed that CU’s Board of Regents approve a five-year, $14.75 million deal for Tucker. The first year would be worth $2.4 million with a $275,000 annual increase. “Colorado has always been a place that I thought should be relevant in the national championship conversation year-in

and year-out, because of its tradition and a seemingly endless list of what the school has to offer,” Tucker said in a news release. “What we have to offer are some of the best facilities in the country, strong academics, and an amazing environment as a whole. Colorado should be a ‘no excuse’ program. There’s absolutely no reason we can’t achieve success at an extremely high level.” The hiring was initially reported by several outlets late last Friday evening. George was in Boulder last Saturday for the CU-Colorado State men’s basketball game and traveled to New York City for the National Football Foundation banquet and College Football Hall of Fame dinner earlier this week. Unlike MacIntyre, Tucker comes to the Flatirons with no previous collegiate head coaching experience. The Cleveland native had spent the last three seasons running the Bulldogs’ defense for coach Kirby Smart,

whom he joined in Athens after the two were assistants under Nick Saban at Alabama in 2015. He was reportedly a finalist for the Tennessee job late last fall that eventually went to Jeremy Pruitt. Tucker had a 2-3 record as an interim coach with the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars at the end of the 2011 season in relief of the fired Jack Del Rio. A Wisconsin alum and member of coach Barry Alvarez’s first Rose Bowl squad in 1993-’94, Tucker brings more than two decades of NFL and Power 5 coaching experience to Boulder. He was a semifinalist in 2017 for the Broyles Award, presented annually to the top assistant coach in college football, in his second season at Georgia. Tucker’s Georgia unit ranked No. 15 nationally in points allowed per game (18.5) and ranked sixth in that category (16.4) a year ago. CU’s defensive unit ranked No. 67 (27.3 points) and No. 74 (28.2

points), respectively, in that category over the past two seasons. Tucker was rated the No. 14 recruiter in the country by 247Sports.com based on his 2018 class at Georgia.

“Colorado has always been a place that I thought should be relevant in the national championship conversation year-in and year-out, because of its tradition and a seemingly endless list of what the school has to offer.” MEL TUCKER NEW FOOTBALL COACH AT UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO

Pac-12 or Colorado ties as a coach, he had been considered in recent years to be one of the rising stars within Saban’s coaching family tree. Over the last 21 years, Tucker worked for Saban three different occasions at three different schools (Michigan State, LSU and Alabama). From 2005-2014, the new CU coach spent time as an assistant on NFL staffs in Cleveland, Jacksonville and Chicago. YahooSports.com’s Pete Thamel reported in a tweet Nov. 29 that George’s preference was to hire “a defensive guy,” and that Tucker, Vanderbilt coach Derek Mason, and former CU defensive coordinator Jim Leavitt, who left Boulder to take the same position at Oregon two years ago, were the three presumed front-runners to replace MacIntyre.

Hold your horses, but credit leaders for Broncos surge into playoff talk By Paul Klee The Gazette

Whoa, fella. Let’s hold our horses. Before Broncos Country goes bookin’ flights for Atlanta and Super Bowl 53, let’s rein in the unbridled optimism that’s ridden in with a three-game win streak: the Avalanche, Nuggets and Rockies are closer than the Broncos to hosting the next championship parade in Colorado. The Avs skate atop the Western Conference of the NHL, the Nuggets smacked the Raptors on Monday to remain No. 1 in the West in the NBA and the Rox are coming off back-to-back trips to the postseason. How’s that for a winning trifecta? There’s never been a better time for multitasking sports fans in Colorado. But credit Vance Joseph for pumping the breaks on playoff chitter-chatter at his media address Monday after the Broncos punked the free-falling Bengals in Cincinnati: “No, I don’t think

(they should talk playoffs). Right now we’re 6-6 only. We’re trying to be 7-6 this week. Without winning, those things won’t matter much. ... At the end, we’ll see where we are.”

“No, I don’t think (they should talk playoffs). Right now we’re 6-6 only. We’re trying to be 7-6 this week. Without winning, those things won’t matter much. ... At the end, we’ll see where we are.” VANCE JOSEPH DENVER BRONCOS HEAD COACH

Where they are now is where the Broncos should have been all along: in the hunt for an AFC Wild Card spot with a bunch of teams that look really good or really bad depending on the Sunday. From

High quality, affordably produced video

here it looks like the Broncos must sweep December and reach 10-6 to continue their season into January. After Philip Rivers and the Chargers beat the Steelers Sunday night — a pair of Super Bowl contenders the Broncos just beat — 9-7 won’t cut it. “We don’t care what the other teams are doing,” defensive tackle and proud papa Shelby Harris said on Monday. Good! Because what’s impressive about this Broncos surge is how they recognized where they were wrong and humbly made it right. They’ve gone safe in a weaklink passing game and ditched safe in a turnover-hungry defense. Mostly — here’s the biggie — they’ve bridged a generational and leadership gap in their locker room. While the leaders in the building score the big bucks and most of the credit, you still need a willing group of followers to make it work. The new guys John Elway brought in were sharp enough to fall in line. “Everyone can’t be leaders,”

Joseph said Monday. All rookies aren’t like that, Miller said as the season began. After seeing Phillip Lindsay swerve around and over defenses like he was born to run in the NFL, did you ever wonder how on earth his Colorado Buffaloes stumbled to a 5-7 record when the fiery senior was leading the charge? If the rest of the huddle wasn’t willing to attack its role as followers, who’s he going to lead? “When investment is heavy,” Joseph said, “teams fight.” Now the cool kids in orange and blue are followers. Situating Garett Bolles’ locker next to Lindsay’s was either a fancy stroke of luck or one of the smartest lowkey moves by Joseph. It’s every day when the little guy struts over to the big guy and says, I love you, dude. I know, Bolles has 120 pounds on Lindsay, so he pretty much has to be nice. But still. “He was chasing (the Bengals around the field)!” Lindsay shouted after he rushed for 157 yards, two touchdowns and promptly handed his game ball to Bolles

and his boys on the offensive line. Scooch over to the defense and suddenly it’s much of the same. Von Miller is the type of example every gifted rookie should be lucky enough to emulate. But where it once was Miller trying to score a ring for ol’ DeMarcus Ware, now it’s Bradley Chubb giving his all to perform up to the standard another future Hall of Famer set before him. “We knew they were coming at the edge all day,” Bengals quarterback Jeff Driskel said after Chubb became only the ninth player to reach 10 sacks by the 12th game of his rookie season. If the Broncos coach in 2018 is smart, he will ban the rookie haircuts and any other foolish traditions that only serve to create division in the locker room. Sub it out for a new tradition worth keeping: this group-photo thing in the end zone. Snap a few in December and the Broncos can retake their usual seat on a long list of winners in town.

Fame >> from page 1 life,” Mancini Jr. said. “People want to chase what people’s life is on Instagram rather than focus on what they have and what they need to do to not be that life, but (have) a better life for (themselves). Show your successes through your way and

not try to do it as someone else.” Originally from Los Angeles, Mancini Jr. has seen firsthand how hyperactive social media culture can become. “A lot of Viners and YouTubers came to L.A. that weren’t ever from there, but they wanted to be a part of that lifestyle,” Mancini said. “(Social media) stars are much younger, they’re doing obscene sh*t ... just to like attract followers and attention. A lot of people are fake in L.A.” Savannah Rose, a current

CSU student majoring in psychology with almost 64,000 followers on Instagram, said she can personally attest to others trying to take advantage of her online popularity. “I’ve had a lot of people – some strangers and some friends – ask me to share their stuff, promote their products or brand for free, or even just shout them out personally because they want that recognition,” Rose said. “I only ‘promote’ things I truly already

use or if it’s from someone or a company I trust. Otherwise, I don’t want my page to be for promotions.” Despite the multiple negative aspects of social media, CSU professor Nick Boehm, who teaches a course known as social media management, said there are many more layers to the situation than are typically addressed. “Since the line of research is so new, there’s been studies out there that have shown positive

mental effects of using social media,” Boehm said. “There’s been a lot of studies out there that have seen negative mental effects to using social media. So it gets a little bit more nuanced than just simply saying ‘using social media creates a positive effect or using social media creates a negative effect.’” Henry Netherland can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

HOLIDAYS

7 D.I.Y. holiday gift ideas and events for the crafty gift-giver By Lyra Wiley @lyra_wiley

With the semester coming to an end, the holidays will be here sooner than expected. The college student budget might not allow for extravagant presents, but this list of seven easy and budget-friendly gifts will help keep costs low and smiles high. There are plenty of places to find materials to make these DIY gifts, and a few in Fort Collins include JOANN Fabrics and Crafts, Who Gives a SCRAP, Hobby Lobby, Scrap 2 It and Michaels. 1. Homemade Spa Gift Basket - Gift baskets can get pretty pricey, especially in the realm of bath and body products. Although a DIY might take some time and patience, it can be wallet and skin friendly, allowing the gift recipient to smell and feel their best on a budget. All the products can be found at the nearest craft store, and essential oils can be found at King Soopers or Whole Foods. 2. Pressed Flowers - This gift is for those who appreciate natural and simple yet timeless decorations. It requires minimal work and minimal resources. All that is needed is a small bouquet and a textbook to press the flowers with. 3. Solid Perfume/Cologne - This is perfect for those who love body sprays and smelling good. The ingredients are easy to find, but they might not be at a craft store. Jojoba oil and other essential oils can be found at Golden Poppy Herbal Apothecary in Old Town. The oils can be mixed with beeswax, which

can be found on Amazon.com. 4. Photo Pillows - Keeping a loved one at home at all times is now possible. A meaningful picture, pillow stuffing and an ink jet fabric sheet are the only things needed to make this gift. Materials can be found at JoAnn Fabrics and Crafts.

MORE INFORMATION ■ More DIY events are listed at

5. Infused Olive Oils - This DIY gift is great for anyone who loves to try new things while cooking. The directions are straightforward and allow you to get creative. Simply add olive oil and ingredients, mix over low heat, let cool, add to a bottle and refrigerate. The result is olive oil infused with personalized flavor choices, like rosemary, chili, garlic or lemon. 6. Beer Coasters - Dig through the recycling bin for this one! Repurposing leftover cardboard six-pack holders into coasters will impress house guests or anyone who loves beer. You can trace a 6-pack holder of a favorite beer into squares and then cut and Mod-Podge felt pieces to the back. This gift is enough to add some character to any room in the house and also acts as an excuse to buy more beer. 7. Arm-Knit Blanket - As the temperature drops outside, staying warm inside with a homemade blanket becomes increasingly tempting. A warm and fuzzy blanket doesn’t have to be

store-bought, and all you need is an hour and a forearm. Don’t be intimidated by the knitting process; a YouTube tutorial is a perfect step-by-step guide. For those who aren’t confident enough to create DIY gifts on their own, fear not. The following locations in Fort Collins provide events to create gifts and crafts with guided instructions and zero judgments. Who Gives a SCRAP, at 125 W Drake Road, will hold open craft sessions on Dec. 6, 13, 20 and 27 between 5 and 7:30 p.m.

The sessions allow those interested to bring in crafts or works in progress. The space provides some materials like glue, scissors and paper cutters. The craft store instructors will give advice and guidance. For more information and to sign up for a spot, visit their class listings page. Wolverine Farm, at 316 Willow St., will offer a kid-friendly opportunity to make a “reindeer midnight munchies kit” Dec. 14, 5 - 6:30 p.m. The ticket includes Christmas music, hot

chocolate and Christmas treats. More information and a link to sign up can be found on their website. Enjoy a beer with Maxline Brewing, at 2724 McClelland Drive #190, while crafting a hanging air plant terrarium Dec. 13, 6 - 8 p.m. This guided experience will also include terrarium materials, snacks and one drink in the ticket.

CONCERTS

Childish Gambino shows vocal talent in Denver on last tour ever By Henry Netherland @NetherlandHenry

In recent years, Donald Glover, also known as Childish Gambino has had a hand in every aspect of significant American popular culture including television, movies, internet content and music. The modern-day Renaissance man has come a long way from his roots as an amateur pop rapper. Just at the peak of his career, at the 2017 Governor’s Ball, he revealed that the next Childish Gambino album would be his last one. Before retiring this aspect of

his career, Gambino decided to go on one last North American tour with his “This Is America Tour,” named after his smash hit earlier this summer. He was originally scheduled to appear in Denver’s Pepsi Center on Oct. 9, but he had to postpone it to Dec. 4 due to a foot injury. So how did Gambino end off his legacy? Vince Staples Opening for Gambino was Long Beach, California rapper Vince Staples whose recent album, “FM!” was a great success for him. Staples was a bit of an odd pick to perform at the Pepsi Center considering that his edgy, dark lyricism is not the ideal sound for capturing the attention of such a massive audience. He managed to make it work, however through an energetic and charismatic performance. It is fascinating to see how well Staples manages to control his breath in high altitude despite being a well-known asthmatic.

Staple’s set rating: 7/10 Childish Gambino From the start, Gambino reminded the audience of how special of an occasion this show truly was. “If you bought a ticket to this show, then you have bought a ticket to the last Childish Gambino tour ever,” Gambino said. For over an hour, he traveled through the essentials of his discography aside from his mixtapes and his debut, “Camp” which is understandable, considering how poorly those projects have aged. He even gave fans a taste of the new material that would appear on his final album. It was hard to say what it would sound like because there wasn’t a lot of cohesion between the songs. However, I can say that they were not as experimental as his last album, “Awaken My Love!” but they were not as poppy as some of the songs on “Because the Internet.” Throughout the set, Gambi-

5 de-stressing methods for finals week @ShapleyGraham

Finals week is undeniably the most stressful time of the school year. Every project you have been putting off is due, every paper needs to be written and rewritten and every exam warrants several hours of study. It’s the last hurrah of the school year and the last chance to bring grades up to something presentable. It all comes down to this. Mental Health America, a mental health organization, suggests a few study strategies including not skipping on sleep, creating a game plan ahead of time and most importantly, adding in breaks. The question becomes what to do with the hour between study sessions, and if you should really get started on that project. If you have a free day or hour, you might need to forget about that test you’re not ready for. 1. Rest your eyes. Your experience may vary with this one depending on how well you take naps. Set as many alarms as is necessary to wake up at the end of it. Oversleeping can be detrimental to a tight schedule. Just taking some time away from the computer and resting your eyes can improve a headache or even get rid of it entirely. Get away from a screen,

than ever live. Not only was he able to hit bright tenor notes flawlessly, but he also had a killer falsetto that was as solid as a brick.

is available on iTunes and other streaming platforms.

Gambino’s set rating: 10/10 It is a shame to see Gambino retiring fairly early in his musical career. It is important to remember the numerous generation-defining songs he has delivered to us over the years. Gambino fans should cherish the radical musical developments he has made over the years as well as appreciate how well his music has matured.

CAMPUS LIFE

By Graham Shapley

no was supported by beautiful backgrounds and visual aids that were simultaneously surreal and grand. He really used lighting and stage design to its fullest advantage. Something I appreciated about Gambino’s set was how much he experimented dynamically with some of his already established songs. The song “Riot” is one of the wildest and experimental songs in his discography and in a live setting, Gambino removed a lot of the bells and whistles in favor of isolating only the necessary melodies. On the other hand, songs like “Redbone” and “Terrified” were some of the mellower cuts on “Awaken My Love!” but in concert, they were some of the loudest and most abrasive songs in the entire show. As much as I enjoyed “Awaken, My Love!,” I can acknowledge there were some major vocal shortcomings on the record. This was not the case at all in concert, and Gambino sounded better

including your phone, and find somewhere comfortable, like a chair in the Morgan Library. If you have been at the computer long enough, your neck probably hurts too. 2. Listen to something. Podcasts and audiobooks are a great way to step away from your work without shutting your brain off. There is a variety of awesome podcasts out there, but if they are a bit too time consuming, music should work just as well too. Tune in to 90.5 KCSU – there is all sorts of good music over there from CSU student DJs. 3. Play some games. Besides video games, think about breaking out a deck of cards and play a few rounds of poker or go fish. If you own a lot of board games, pick a day to take a break and invite some friends over to play. They will appreciate the offer for some friendly competition and nostalgia. 4. See a movie. A new ritual to keep up with friends is to see a movie toward the end of finals week. It gives students something to look forward to and something to take your minds off the countless assignments. For an interesting film viewing while supporting local theater, a trip to the Lyric Cinema is a good option. For the people who don’t want to leave their house, consider browsing Youtube, Netflix or Hulu. Get out of your com-

you normally would not. For some suggestions, check out some Collegian Reviews to see anything you might like.

CURRENT MOVIES PLAYING AT THE LYRIC ■ ”A Star is Born” ■ “Boy Erased” ■ “Can You Ever Forgive Me?” ■ “Free Solo” ■ “Border” ■ “Wildlife”

5. Go for a walk. Just go outside for a bit. You probably have been breathing the stale, sweaty air of Morgan Library or your room. It is a bit cold out, but the cool air feels good on lungs especially when they have been in the same location for the past five hours. Stretch your legs, your back and move a bit before sitting back down again. A change of scenery and taking a walk does wonders to help break through a tough problem or writer’s block. If you have planned out your study and project schedule, find some time for yourself and do not burn out. Graham Shapley can be reached at entertainment@ collegian.com.

12 great gifts for the musichead on your holiday shopping list By Jon Bream & Chris Riemenschneide Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

We’ve put together some recommendations for music lovers on your holiday shopping lists — the ones who want something tangible to hold besides an iPhone with a streaming app. “Michael Jackson: All the Songs” by Richard Lecocq and Francois Allard (Cassell, $50). This 600-page doorstop tells the back stories behind every single song MJ ever recorded, including with the Jackson 5. The prose is as workman-like as the research is thorough, and the photos are fun. There’s even the story of Prince turning down Jackson’s request to make the song “Bad” a duet. “Paul Simon: The Life” by Robert Hilburn (Simon & Schuster, $30). The longtime Los Angeles Times critic got the songwriting giant to cooperate, but Simon didn’t have approval over the book. Even though Art Garfunkel never granted Hilburn an interview, the 400-page tome is comprehensive, insightful and befitting its thoughtful subject.

“Beastie Boys Book,” by Michael Diamond & Adam Horovitz (Spiegel & Grau, $50). This massive 590-page “panoramic book” is predictably wild, weird and way more fun than most bands’ memoirs, with lots of photos, artwork and input from celeb pals such as Amy Poehler. More surprising, the surviving Beasties write with sharp insight and grace, especially about their late bandmate Adam Yauch. “Prince and the Purple Rain Era Studio Sessions 1983 and 1984” by Duane Tudahl (Rowman & Littlefield, $24.95). The Los Angeles writer got insiders, especially engineers and band members, to tell revealing stories about these pivotal years in interviews before Prince died. The focus is on recording sessions. Tudahl has updated information so convincingly that he was hired this year to work on Prince’s archives. “Prince: Before the Rain” by Allen Beaulieu (Minnesota Historical Society Press, $29.95). The Minneapolis fashion photographer had access to the Purple One in the late ‘70s/early ‘80s, shooting album covers, con-

certs and offstage shenanigans. The concert pictures are disappointingly blurry albeit historic, but the posed and candid photos are priceless. David Bowie, “Loving the Alien (19831988)” (Rhino, around $120/$210). Fourth in a chronological series of sprawling Bowie boxed sets, the 11-CD or 15-LP anthology spans from the MTVbuoyed album “Let’s Dance” to the underrated “Glass Spider (Live Montreal ‘87).” Among the “new” offerings are the rarities disc “Re: Call 4.” the fun if novel remix set “Dance” and a rerecorded version of the entire “Never Let Me Down” album, a title that rings true even in this lesser-celebrated era of the late rock genius’ career. Semisonic, “Feeling Strangely Fine: 20th Anniversary Edition” (Universal, $14/$34). Yes, “Closing Time” is almost old enough to shut down a bar. This nicely remastered and ambitiously repackaged reissue — including its first vinyl incarnation! — reiterates how much more there was to the Minneapolis rock trio’s second album than its megahit, from the equally catchy “Singing in My Sleep”

to four newly added and very worthy B-sides. Bikini Kill, “The Singles” (Kill Rock Stars, $18). Anchored by the Joan Jett-produced anthem “Rebel Girl,” this compilation of three different 7-inch records was released rather inconsequentially in 1998. It has since turned into perhaps the most celebrated and influential album by feminist punk icon Kathleen Hanna and her hard-raging Olympia, Wash., band. Old-school fans would love unwrapping the reissue on vinyl, but today’s cool indie kids could (and should) enjoy it, too. Bob Dylan, “More Blood, More Tracks: Bootleg Series Vol. 14” (Sony Legacy, $13-$110). Not only does this finally give official credit to the Minneapolis musicians who recorded anonymously on Dylan’s 1975 landmark “Blood on the Tracks,” but it affords fans a chance to compare the oft-bootlegged New York sessions with the Minneapolis ones, where five songs were recut with a full band and an angrier vibe. Plus, if you listen to all six CDs, you’ll get a window into Dylan’s demo-free recording process for which no two takes

are alike. Also available as a single disc. The Beatles, “The Beatles (White Album)” (Capitol, $25-$179). It’s the 50th anniversary of the Beatles’ biggest (30 songs) and most eclectic album, and you can discover the demos, outtakes and drama (enter Yoko Ono) on the six-CD plus Blu-ray super-deluxe package. There are 27 acoustic demos and 50 mostly previously unreleased tracks plus a book and remastering by Giles Martin, son of Sir George Martin. Is anything ever too much for Beatlemaniacs? Metallica, “ ... And Justice for All (Remastered)” (Rhino/Blackened, $25-$200). Before they met up and slicked up with producer Bob Rock for their “Black Album,” the thrash-metal giants released this far more dense and artful masterpiece, featuring the MTV hit “One” and such fan faves as “Harvester of Sorrow” and “Blackened.” The 30th-anniversary $200 megabox seems like a bit much, but the $25 180-gram double-LP or expanded threeCD set are very justifiable.
