CSU seeks improved experience with on-campus stadium By Justin Michael @JustinTMichael
Everything you know about the student game day experience at Colorado State University is set to change. Now, just three months from the grand opening of the on-campus stadium and the inaugural football game against Oregon State on Aug. 26, the Colorado State Athletic Department is aiming to create an experience for CSU students that rivals all institutions across the nation. In a roundtable discussion with various members of the athletic administration and the local media last week, Athletic Director Joe Parker addressed the project boldly. “I can say with educated confidence that we will have the best stadium in America,” Parker said. “Maybe not the largest stadium in America, obviously, but all the components that will be a part of it, and I’ve told each of you, the thing I’m most proud of is the nature of the public concourse, the fact that (this) is a space that I really think is going to serve the entire stadium population.” The biggest priority is pleasing season ticket holders and the people that are making the stadium financially viable. They have finished with the VIP areas, the New Belgium Porch and Orthopedic & Spine Center of the
Rockies Field Club. However, after the season ticket holders and donors, the priority is pleasing the students. More importantly, the athletic department wanted to ensure that students were able to be give input and play a part in the decision-making process. “What has really been so significant about this entire process is that the entire institution, from top to bottom, has made students a number one priority,” Senior Associate Athletic Director for Sales, Marketing and Communications Chris Ferris said the Collegian Tuesday. Through multiple surveys given to students, researching other universities across the campus and working directly with the Associated Students of Colorado State University, the athletic department has spent the last three years working with students to create an experience that is fit for a campus that is now home to a $220 million state-ofthe-art stadium. From the minute students arrive on campus, until the final whistle blows each Saturday, Ferris explained how improving the overall experience of the people that bring the ruckus every weekend is paramount to creating the optimal gameday for all involved. “The energy in the stadium starts with Ram Ruckus and the
students,” Ferris said. “Making that (gameday) experience great for all of our students on campus has been, and continues to be, our top priority.” Student Tickets The first thing students need to know is that they will no longer need physical tickets. In previous years, students could get a paper ticket at the McGraw Athletic Center or the Lory Student Center. Other options for student tickets included downloading a PDF or receiving a physical ticket at the door. Moving forward, the process will be significantly less time consuming. Instead of waiting in long lines for physical tickets, all students can reserve a spot in advance and then scan their ID directly at the door. The new ticketing process will begin with the inaugural football game on Aug. 26, but the new system will be used for all the major sports next year: football, volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball. While students have the option to reserve in advance, it is not technically required. Students that show up the door, will simply scan their ID. However, if the entire student allotment of 10,500 tickets were to be reserved in advance, the game would be considered a sellout and the students that reserved in advance would be given priority.
Reward System to Incentivize Students Along with the new ticketing system, students that regularly attend games will earn points in a new reward system. The exact details of the system are still being worked out, but the general idea will be to incentivize students to regularly attend games. Likely perks of the reward system will be prize packages and pregame events, similarly to how Ram Ruckus functioned this year. The key difference will be that students will not have to pay anything to be eligible for these rewards. They simply need to attend games, which are paid for in student fees each year. A claim schedule for when and how students will be able to specifically reserve each game is anticipated to be released by the first week of August, if not sooner. Transportation Another key factor in improving the student experience was making the stadium as accessible to students as possible. Although students living on campus will have to move their cars to the designated re-park areas, a process which was developed with the input of ASCSU, RHA, faculty staff and online student surveys, the University will provide a free shuttle service for students to and from all residence hall lots to the re-park ar-
eas, including the Research Boulevard lot, which is located south of campus. Senior Associate Athletic Director for Facilities Operations Doug Max, who played a key role in the project since day one, explained how he has worked closely with various student organizations, including ASCSU, to help ensure the re-park process is as accommodating as possible. “We have had students on all of the sub-committees,” Max said. Max explained that with the the help of ASCSU and student housing, the University was able to gather as much input as possible and ultimately came up with re-park program. Max also explained that the re-park program is not unique to CSU and how most schools with on-campus stadiums have repark programs in some capacity. “We took a lot of information from schools like Arkansas, Kansas State, LSU, Minnesota and Nebraska about the overall on-campus experience,” Max said. For students that wish to use alternative transportation, multiple bike valets will also be located around the stadium, where patrons can check gear before they head into the stadium. To accommodate for an increase in cyclists, bike racks will also be see STADIUM on page 14 >>

CSU’s use of fetal tissue for HIV/AIDS research sparks controversy By Mq Borocz @MQBorocz22
Colorado State University is one of multiple research institutions that uses stem cells from aborted fetal tissue to research HIV and AIDS, a practice some say is unnecessary and immoral, but researchers say is essential. Emily Faulkner, a senior biology major at CSU and founder of the anti-abortion group, CSU Students for Life, has been advocating against the University’s use of fetal tissue for moral and legal reasons. Faulkner believes the University has illegally obtained fetal tissue for research and still could be after similar allegations against Planned Parenthood and CSU arose in 2015. Earlier this semester, Faulkner hung posters that said CSU buys trafficked baby parts but says they were ripped down an hour later. “For a community that expresses tolerance for (many other communities) it seems to be very intolerant of the prolife community,” Faulkner said. “It’s really hard to open people’s
minds to actually see what’s going on, especially when there’s so much intolerance.” In January, a Republican panel from the House of Representatives released a report suggesting some Planned Parenthood clinics and firms sold fetal tissue for profit, which is illegal under federal law. The report concluded over a year-long investigation after similar allegations against Planned Parenthood arose in 2015. The report cited documents indicating the University paid the tissue procurement organizations StemExpress and Advanced Bioscience Resources $2,000 and $100,000, respectively, for fetal tissue between 2010 and 2015. It is illegal to buy fetal tissue, but federal law does not specify how much can be charged for shipping and handling. The report questions whether or not ABR and StemExpress donated the fetal tissue or sold it for profit. Faulkner brought up CSU’s use of fetal tissue this semester in response to the report. She and CSU Students for Life collected signatures on a petition
that asked CSU President Tony Frank to investigate whether or not CSU was involved in illegal obtainment of fetal tissue and to acknowledge its use in research. In response to the 2015 allegations, Frank wrote to Rep. Doug Lamborn stating that CSU was compliant with all state and federal laws in acquiring fetal tissue. According to Executive Director of Public Affairs and Communications, Mike Hooker, and the Vice President for Research, Alan Rudolph, the University has continued to follow the state and federal laws. “(Part of) my job as an institutional official is making sure that we sustain the highest standards for practice even beyond what the feds recommend,” Rudolph said. In addition to legal concerns, Faulkner also has moral concerns. She said that though abortion may be legal, that does not mean it is right. She expressed concern about fetal tissue and organs being harvested from late-term fetuses with beating hearts. see RESEARCH on page 22 >>

How we may move forward on the issues of growth on the Front Range By Julia Rentsch @JuliaRentsch
At the border between Colorado and Nebraska, water gushes across state lines. More than 4 million acre-feet of water has left the state via the South Platte River since 2009, and in an arid environment like the Northern Front Range of the Rockies, a drop unused inside the state boundaries is considered a drop wasted – especially as the area grows in population and demand for water subsequently increases. Experts say that the growth of Northern Front Range towns and cities will not be limited by physical access to water – the supply exists. What is up for debate is how we allocate the resource to provide a sustainable supply of water to meet both human and environmental needs. One attempt to solve this problem is the Northern Integrated Supply Project, also known as NISP - a proposed water storage plan that has been in the stages of federal permitting and review since 2004. It may be the most famous – or, depending

on who you ask, infamous – water project in the region. Particularly outspoken about their opposition to the project is activist group Save the Poudre, founded by ecologist Gary Wockner soon after NISP was proposed. Members of Save the Poudre believe NISP will be detrimental to the Poudre’s remaining health by diverting the majority of its flows and turning it into what Wockner calls “a
stinking ditch.” However, at the heart of the debate are larger questions about how to manage growth on the Front Range without sacrificing the health of the region’s rivers and agricultural land. “It’s really a deeper question of what do we want Northern Colorado to look like and how do we want to get there,” said Reagan Waskom, director of the Colorado State University Water Center
and the Colorado Water Institute. NISP basics The current project plan calls for the building of two reservoirs: Glade in Larimer County and Galeton in Weld. Additionally, there would be a small reservoir for temporary storage near the mouth of the Poudre Canyon, three pump plants and pipelines to deliver the water to the participants and updates to an existing small canal. Designed to provide a reliable 40,000 acre-feet supply of water annually to the fifteen participating cities and water districts to meet needs through the year 2030. The project’s participant list includes the cities of Dacono, Eaton, Erie, Evans, Firestone, Fort Lupton, Fort Morgan, Frederick, Lafayette, Severance and Windsor; participating water districts are Central Weld County, Fort Collins-Loveland, Left Hand and Morgan County Quality. Per Northern Water’s estimates, these 11 towns and four districts serve about 240,000 residents in total. In order to do this, Northern plans to divert water from the Poudre during wet periods
of the year -- under projected conditions, the June rise of the river would be considerably lower than ecologists say is healthy. Northern Water is working on a plan to abide by guidelines that will be set by Colorado Parks and Wildlife, but what constitutes a healthy flow is up for debate. “We’re willing to work on a flushing flow plan because we know it’s a big enough issue,” said Brian Werner, a public relations officer for Northern Water. NISP was originally expected to cost $500 million; at this price, participants will pay about $12,500 per acre-foot of water they receive from the project. An equivalent amount of water from the Colorado-Big Thompson costs around $40,000 to $50,000 per acre-foot. However, more recent changes to make the project plan more feasible and sustainable have pushed the estimated price up to around $800 million. The project’s effects on the Poudre are of particular concern to ecologists. “The Poudre ... is a working river, and it’s been developed to see SCIENCE on page 22 >>

Course evaluations will soon change due to bias, institutional misuse By Tatiana ParafiniukTalesnick @TatianaSophiaPT
Students at Colorado State University have been taking end-of-semester course surveys, and it could be the last time some take paper surveys. The survey is undergoing a major make-over because of issues with bias, institutional misuse and waste. Matthew Hickey is the chair of the committee spearheading the reformation of surveys, known as the Faculty Council Committee on Teaching and Learning (CoTL), a subcommittee of the Faculty Council. According to Hickey, the committee has created a three-pronged approach to reform; they are changing the questions asked, swapping paper for an online format and encouraging a cultural change in the survey’s use. Course surveys were originally created by the Associated Students of CSU (ASCSU), the University’s student government, to be a tool for students to know about a class before taking it and provide feedback after taking it. In Spring 2016, ASCSU cut funding to the course surveys under the leadership of then-President Jason Sydoriak. Sydoriak originally intended to modernize the survey process when he came upon what he
found to be a larger problem. “When I started looking into it and doing my own research I came to the same conclusion that the committee had been coming to,” Sydoriak said. “That these course surveys are fairly arbitrary, and there is significant bias against females, minorities, and unfortunately, those who have to work in sub-par facilities.” The surveys have continued to be the key tool used to evaluate instructor performance to make tenure and pay decisions. For Hickey, his committee, ASCSU and many other committees this is a problem – and CoTL, with input from ASCSU and other faculty members, has developed a plan to improve the survey and its use. Step 1- New questions The first piece of the surveys CoTL worked on is redesigning them to be less affected by inherent bias. Hickey worked with Dr. Zinta Byrne, a psychology professor and the committee’s survey design expert, to create a better set of questions – one core set that applies to all courses and another set that is more particular to the course[Office1] [Office2] . The questions will also be more centered around the what kind of environment instructors provide. Gwen Gorzelsky, the executive director of TILT, serves as
ex officio, a non-voting position, on CoTL. She looks forward to the questions in the survey being more focused on the learning environment. “Right now the course survey questions at CSU tend to be more focused on the faculty person as an individual (or their) characteristics,” said Gorzelsky. Gorzelsky said course surveys at other institutions also face this problem. Questions about fairness and approachability of the instructors focus more on the character of the faculty member and less on the learning environment they are creating. Tyler Siri, the ASCSU representative for CoTL, looks forward to the new set of questions being more[Office3] applicable for student use by providing more useful questions.[Office4] Hickey emphasizes that the questions will be reformed, but not perfect. “I wouldn’t want to have any information out (there) that suggests that the perfect survey can overcome implicit bias, it’s not going to happen,” said Hickey. “Bias even appears in peer evaluation.” The new questions may be beta tested as soon as the upcoming summer semester. Step 2 – Switch to online format CoTL has found a survey vender, Qualtrics, to switch the
survey to an online format. According to Hickey, it will save on cost and allow more flexibility. “The beauty of (online) then becomes this core set of questions we develop, and (the course-specific questions), become much nimbler,” Hickey said. “It’s conceivable we go a couple semesters into this, decide that those core questions are not quite getting [Office5] what we thought they would and change those immediately.” The online format may also make answers more easily available to students. According to Siri, students should eventually be able to find previous survey results on a platform they already understand, like Canvas or RamWeb. Step 3 – Shift how the surveys are used The final, and perhaps most ambitious, step to course survey reform is a shift in how the results are treated. “Ultimately the goal is to shift the emphasis on this away from a tool for evaluation teaching effectiveness, which is a misapplication of this tool,” Hickey said. “This tool allows students to provide insight only they can provide to faculty members about the learning landscape in a classroom.” Members of CoTL want the survey to be used in conjunc-
tion with other measurements of teaching effectiveness. Hickey said the results of the survey, as it looks now, are not helpful for measuring an instructor’s ability. In some cases, the survey instructors, who are rated poorly because of course difficulty, are often prompting the most student growth. When this happens, the survey can inversely measure instructor effectiveness, according to Hickey. Hickey believes the survey could be used to help track how professors respond to student feedback when administrators are considering instructors for tenure. “It’s an issue of cultural and institution change, and that kind of change takes time, but I think it’s very worth pursuing,” said Gorzelsky[Office6] . The survey could start to be distributed on Qualtrics as soon as fall semester 2017. Next spring, the new 2018-2019 ASCSU administration will have to decide if ASCSU should fund the online version of the survey for the 2018-2019 school year. “It’s going to be fantastic for everyone, it’s going to be a much more useful tool for students, faculty and administrators,” said Siri.

New teaching brewery to open in Ramskeller By Mason Force @masforce1
Colorado State University engineering students are working to install an advanced new brewing system in the Lory Student Center to train students from the fermentation sciences and technology program. The brewing system will be used, and the beers produced will be served at the RamSkeller. The system is part of a joint venture between the fermentation sciences program and the RamSkeller Pub in the Lory Student Center. Jeff Callaway, the associate director of the program, said the mission is to prepare and educate students in the science and art of fermenting foods and beverages. The funds were largly driven by Jeannie Miller of Molson Coors and Dan Malisko of Malisko Engineering. The Molson Coors Brewing Company was the primary donor behind the project and provided the equipment needed for the new facility. Malisko Engineering is pro-
viding assistance to the CSU Brewery Team, the group of engineering students currently working to design and install the brewing systems. “(Miller and Malisko are) fantastic alumni who really drove the donations and gathered the rest of the donors together,” Callaway said. “It was those two people that were really the key influencers.” The CSU Brewery Team is also working to develop a brewing system in the Gifford building as part of a senior design project. Of the two, the LSC brewhouse is more pub-oriented and is designed to focus on experimental brews and providing students with valuable, largescale experience. The 10-hectoliter system will be capable of producing 17 kegs of brew in a single batch and is worth over $1 million Though CSU is officially a dry campus, Callaway sees no potential conflict with the brewhouse installation or reason to change the rule. Callaway said that it is important to provide students with the hands-on ex-
perience of making their own beer and that brewing is a very viable industry. “I think the way things operate now, where you can legally purchase a beer and drink it in the RamSkeller, and (the ability) to tailgate on game days seems fair to me,” Callaway said. “I do not think there needs to be beer consumed all over campus.” Callaway said the system provides a clear industry advantage for students in CSU’s fermentation science and technology program, and the new system will be an opportunity for experiential learning on a different platform. “Like anything, experience is key,” Callaway said. “The production time (the students) get is more, and also the troubleshooting time, the types of equipment, and so for a host of reasons, it’s clearly an advantage.” Callaway said the system is unique among other university brewing systems due to its large size and high levels of automation, as well as the extent to which the brewing industry has

been involved in the process. The brewing equipment will be operated by students, an aspect that Callaway says is also unique to CSU. “We look forward with sharing the brews and experiences
with everybody at CSU and the local community,” Callaway said. The teaching brewery is set to open in the fall. Mason Force can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Former member of Obama’s cabinet to join CSU faculty By Piper Davis @piperldavis
Tom Vilsack, former United States Secretary of Agriculture for the Barack Obama administration, will join Colorado State University’s faculty starting this month. Vilsack will join CSU as the Global Chair for the International Board of Counselors on Food and Water Initiatives. Vilsack will also join Denver Water and serve as the Strategic Adviser of Food and Water Initiatives at the National Western Center. Vilsack’s two part-time positions will create a bridge between Denver water and CSU as they collaborate on the National Western Center. Vilsack served as U.S. Secretary of Agriculture from 2009 to 2017 under the Obama administration, the only member of the U.S. Cabinet to serve for the entirety of Obama’s presidential career. Previously, the Democratic politician served as the Governor of Iowa from 1999 to 2007. Prior to his first election as governor, Vilsack was the first Democrat to hold office in Iowa in over 30 years. He is currently the CEO of the U.S. Dairy Export Council as of Feb. 7. Vilsack will contribute to the ambitious $1.1 billion project and decade long effort to expand the Denver National Western Cen-

ter. According to the official master plan, Mayor Michael Hancock and his administration seek to remodel and enlarge the complex to serve as a year-round, agricultural innovation center. The official proposal states, “The plan calls for a full rehabilitation of the site, one that repairs the long-term damage from years of industrial uses and creates a new series of green and healthy spaces that help to launch a new era for the National Western complex and the adjoining neighborhoods.” Vilsack is planning to intertwine his positions at Denver Water and the National Western Center project to target state water issues by establishing the
Water Resources Center, a facility located within the National Western Center that serves as the core focus of the project. The official proposal for the Water Resources Center states that a partnership with Denver Water will create collaboration surrounding issues such as water quality, conservation, recycling, treatment and more, and would bring together learning and application. “The issue of water is something that is incredibly important to Colorado and the entire western part of the United States,” Vilsack said. “That’s where a lot of our agricultural production takes place. As we look at (water issues), we see
the Western part of the United States will play a critical role if we are able to maintain and preserve it.” Vilsack’s position at CSU will focus on solving agricultural problems with the inclusion of climate-smart policies and ideologies. “We are going to have to increase agricultural productivity to feed billions of people,” Vilsack said. “That is going to require a 70 percent increase in agricultural production at a time when the climate is going to require us to look at more [problems] we don’t even know we have. The question is: who is going to help solve all those problems and where can we begin that process? It seems to me that Colorado State and the National Western Center are positioned perfectly to be part of the solution.” Vilsack will be joined by his wife, Christie Vilsack. Christie Vilsack, has also been hired at CSU, serving as the Senior Advisor to the Chancellor for Educational Access and Presidential Visiting Scholar of Educational Access. She has spent her life emphasizing the importance of education, from teaching English for 25 years to working as the Senior Advisor for International Education at the United States Agency for International Development. She
also founded the Vilsack Foundation, a program that stressed the importance of local libraries and early childhood reading. “Being a land grant university, Colorado is really focused on the state and giving students in this state an opportunity at a college education,” Christie Vilsack said in an interview with the University. “There are also a lot of undeserved communities, (many in rural areas). The Western Center is a real opportunity to create community and to educate the general public because you don’t just go to school; you are a student for the rest of your life.” Their combined salary is $125,000 annually for three years, with Mr. Vilsack earning $75,000 and Mrs. Vilsack earning $50,000. President Tony Frank spoke for the official announcement of the Vilsack’s employment. “The challenges that are facing our globe will need all of our best efforts and all of our best thoughts to identify sustainable solutions,” Frank said. “We are excited to add these two incredibly qualified national leaders to our team and to continue to elevate the conversation, and collaborate to create great impact for our state, our country and our world.” Piper Davis can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Pineda Soracá administration makes final amendment to Diversity Bill, removes Petition Clause By Gabriel Go @ rgabrielgo
The 46th administration of the Associated Students of Colorado State University sang its swan song on Wednesday night by passing a final bill which would remove the clause in the ASCSU constitution that allows student groups to apply for senate seats in the student body. Bill #4623 was the final piece of legislation passed by the government of outgoing ASCSU President Daniela Pineda Soracá before handing the leadership of the organization to incoming President Josh Silva and Vice President Elect Michael Wells. The bill was presented to the senate floor three times. It was overwhelmingly approved with a vote of 27-0-1 and took immediate effect. Bill #4623 sought to replace the petitioning process required by student groups seeking repre-
sentation with the ability to write amendments to the ASCSU Constitution allowing for their inclusion in the student legislature. These amendments must then be ratified by a two-thirds majority vote from the Senate. The process detailed by Bill #4623 is similar to how the Multi-Faith and Belief Council received their senate seats. Last January, ASCSU amended their constitution to include the council, thereby allowing religious representation in the student body without having to undergo the petitioning process. Known as the Petition Clause, the original law came as part of the hotly debated Diversity Bill last spring, which resulted in the creation of senate seats for the Student Diversity Programs and Services offices and the Adult Learner and Veteran Services office. The petitioning process, as it was originally introduced into the ASCSU Constitution, places

the organization at a legal risk. The process required student groups to petition ASCSU and pass a two-thirds majority vote from the Senate. ASCSU could be sued for discrimination if a student group which fails the process falls under a protected class under the U.S. Constitution.
While ASCSU has not been subject to any such suit, University lawyers advised the organization earlier last year to either clarify the process or gut it altogether, as its inclusion in the ASCSU Constitution places the organization at a legal blind spot if it remains.
Various attempts to eliminate the Petition Clause persisted throughout the fall 2016 semester. However, these attempts were defeated because ASCSU could not legally define what constituted a “historically under-represented” group, nor could they agree on alternatives to the Petition Clause. ASCSU was also unable to fully clarify how the petitioning process actually worked. Pineda Soracá’s farewell address to the 46th Senate acknowledged the senators who gained their seats through the Diversity Bill, thanking them for their efforts. “We had to pick up a lot of pieces in the past year,” Pineda Soracá said. “There was definitely a lot of contention into your (senate seats), but I think we’re getting to a much better place on campus to continue these constructive conversations.” Gabriel Go can be reached at news@collegian.com.

11 new degree programs introduced at Board of Governors By Ty Betts and Nicole Towne @TyBetts9, @nicole_towne21
During the second day of the Board of Governors meeting May 3, over 11 new degree programs were approved for both undergraduate and graduate studies at Colorado State University. Provost and Executive Vice President Rick Miranda spoke about new degree programs the University is implementing. The majority of the programs were graduate level certificates with some Ph.D. programs. New Ph.D. programs include materials science and engineering, as well as anthropology. Additionally, materials science and engineering will also be offered as a master’s program. The master’s degree in materials science and engineering would be split into two tracks, Plan A and Plan B, Miranda said. Plan A is research based with a thesis to prepare students for a Ph.D program. Plan B is more project based, with less of a focus on continuing to a Ph.D. program. Several new graduate level certificate offerings will be offered in various departments. Among the graduate and Ph.D. programs, a major in Women’s and Gender Studies was approved for
Graduate certificate programs include: Adventure Tourism Agritourism Management Business Analytics and Accounting Systems Conservation Action with Lands, Animals and People Facilitating Adult Learning High Impact On-Demand Learning Solutions Nutrition Sciences TESOL Education (Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages) undergraduates. This program will join the current Women’s Studies Interdisciplinary minor program. There is already a concentration for Women’s and Gender Studies as part of the Ethnic Studies major. Miranda said this additional degree would only require minor changes. “What we’re doing is pulling that concentration out and making it its own stand-alone degree. There’s hardly any change to the curriculum,” Miranda said. Nicole Towne and Ty Betts can be reached at news@collegian.com

Undie Run encourages reputation of indecency at CSU Tianna Zachariah @Tzachariah20
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. Decency and self-respect are virtues that are lost on many college campuses. The Undie Run is not only a disgrace to the University and the Fort Collins community, but also to the individual students who choose to participate in this event. This behavior should not be tolerated. It is alarming the number of students who think there is nothing wrong with this kind of behavior. Students choose to participate for several reasons, many of which have to do with the bragging rights that come along with just partaking in this experience. According to Ty Bett’s column published in the Collegian on Tuesday, students choose to participate because it’s seen as a bucket list experience that is specific to CSU. Also, even though in past years there has been police intervention, Bett quotes students who do not seem to realize or even take seriously the severity of law enforcement presence at an event like this. The Undie Run has been an annual tradition at CSU for six years now. When it began, it was intended to be a clothes drive. Students who participated would strip down to their underwear, leaving behind the clothes they were wearing to be donated. In past years, clothes that were meant to be donated ended up in the trees, the plaza and other public places. The clothes that survived the night were in no condition to be donated.
In 2015, the name of the event was changed to the B.A.R.E. run (Body Acceptance Run Extravaganza). This change was supposed to make the event more organized and safe as well as create a more suitable image for CSU. As the event has grown, it has become something bigger than what it was designed to be. The founders created the event as a fun way to both destress before finals and donate to charity. Yoga, movies, meditation and reading are among the thousand other options that are actual de-stressors. In previous years, organizers of the run formed a cleanup patrol to combat all the damage done to the community. They tried to get insurance to protect both students and the University. In 2013, there were several incidents with students and law enforcement that put stress on the reputation of the University. CSU has since communicated with law enforcement to contain the run. These are some of the actions that have gone into planning this event. They sound more like stress inducers rather than stress relievers. As CSU administrators have emphasized, the Undie Run is no longer sponsored, supported or authorized by the University. To those students who are looking for a way to destress before finals-- read a book, have a movie night with friends or treat yourself to something special. To those students who want to give to charity, do not choose the Undie Run as your platform for donation, instead choose Fort Collins Habitat for Humanity, Fort Collins Rescue Mission or Eco-Thrift. Over the years, the Undie Run has become just another excuse for college students to wreak havoc on the community and their fellow students. Do not encourage this event by participating this year. Choose to stand for dignity, self-respect and decency. Tianna Zachariah can be reached at letters@ collegian.com.

ASCSU’s Speaker of the Senate has new goals for the 2017-18 academic year
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. Dear Collegian, I had the honor of being sworn in as the first ever Associated Students of Colorado State University Speaker of the Senate. I look forward to working with my colleagues to make ASCSU the best it can be. Thank you for entrusting me with this position. I am committed to working tirelessly to deliver on the promises I made during the election. Throughout my campaign, I promised Senate leadership that prioritizes process, transparency and diversity within the ASCSU. Senate has big plans for the 20172018 academic year to ensure that we act as the strongest representatives of the CSU community. One of the first priorities is to ensure that all new and returning senators are provided with training and mentors to ensure a seamless start to the new year of your student government. All senators will now be thoroughly equipped with the tools of parliamentary procedure, the process which the Senate is run. This will ensure efficiency during our meetings and create an unbiased venue receptive to all ideas. Senate members will also receive further training centered around writing a bill or resolution, job requirements and professional development throughout the year. Through strengthening our process, a strong and accountable group of senators will thrive. Senate is responsible for a wide array of important elements that define the CSU experience-- from the Transfort bus system, to Holocaust Awareness Week. In fact this last year, the ASCSU Senate helped manage millions of dollars in student fees. ASCSU has previously been criticized for being a closed-off, out-of-touch organization not interested in hearing what the student body has to say. Beginning today, you will see that is not the case. I will be sharing weekly information with
NOPE DOPE
the Rams community in an easy-to-understand format, through campus news sources and social media. Be sure to watch for regular updates from myself and the newly elected Senate Leadership team on upcoming legislation via the Collegian and ASCSU website/social media. We are looking forward to being a more transparent organization and hearing more of what you have to say! Finally, diversity is at the forefront of importance this year in Senate. I strongly believe that any student government should be as diverse as the population that it represents. With a student body filled with over 33,000 students from all walks of life, we should constantly be seeking out new ways to represent the entire Ram population. Our Senate will grow as our population grows, and be designed to represent all views. I will be encouraging senators to return to our roots of student representation and avoid personal political agendas by ensuring more collaboration with students, academic colleges, student diversity programs and service offices and student organizations across campus. Only through doing everything we can to share the diversity of thought shared between our student body will we be able to adequately represent the Rams community. To the students who chose to cast their vote for me during the ASCSU elections--thank you for your confidence in me. You always have an open and ongoing invitation to see me personally in the Senate office as well as attend the Senate meetings on Wednesday evenings at 6:30 p.m. Your voice is important to me and your senators. Under my Senate leadership, your voice will be heard. Here is to the start of something new and promising, and I look forward to serving you during the 2017-2018 academic year! -Isabel Brown ASCSU Speaker of the Senate Letters may be sent to letters@ collegian.com.

Fort Collins rent increased by 26 percent 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. Dear Collegian, Median rent in Fort Collins, CO has increased by $224, or 26 percent, since 2010, according to data from the most recent United States American Community Survey by the Census Bureau. After analyzing the data, researchers from Rent College Pads zeroed in on 200 cities across the country that are home to universities. They found that the cost of rent increased at all but eight of them between 2010 and 2015. Rent College Pads director of marketing, Jeremy Schmidt, points to several reasons for increases in rent. “In addition to ever-present inflation, the law of supply and demand is a driving factor behind rent increases,” Schmidt said. “A lack of rental housing, increasing enrollment, dorm shortages, and slow off-campus housing development means more students searching and not enough vacancies.”
At some campuses, there are enough luxury apartments to house virtually every student who’s looking to live off-campus. At others, the situation is bleak. Using the results of the survey data, Rent College Pads researchers looked at the 20 campuses that have seen the biggest increases in rent over the past five years. Here are the findings for Fort Collins, CO:
2015 Rent: $1,077 2010 Rent: $853 Change in Rent: $224 Percent Change: 26% “With median rents now nearing almost $1400, Fort Collins has seen the cost of rent skyrocket over the past seven years. Enrollment at Colorado State has grown by over 2,000 students since 2010, and with strict enforcement of the U+2 law, which prevents renters from living with more than two unrelated roommates, renters have dealt with a shortage of housing options that has resulted in a see LETTERS on page 22 >>

An unforgettable senior class of female athletes says goodbye Austin White @ajwrules44
For every great athlete, there will always be an ending. Whether it comes in the form of retirement from a professional league or graduation from a college or high school, a time comes for every athlete to call it quits. That ending has come for four of the most prolific female athletes in the history of Colorado State athletics. Cassidy Denny, Ellen Nystrom, Elin Gustavsson and Haley Hutton will all be graduating this season after their unforgettable and record-breaking careers. First is Denny, who has
played every game for the CSU volleyball team since her sophomore season. She helped anchor a defense that led the way for the Rams to reach the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament in 2014, tied for the furthest the school has ever been. During her final season last fall, she recorded four digs per game, good for third most in the Mountain West. Her 444 total digs marked the sixth most ever in a single season for a Ram. Being the libero, she was the leader on the court for every match and helped her team reach the NCAA Tournament for the 22nd straight year. Denny was at the forefront of the team’s message about racial equality during their 2016 season. She put together a statement that called on the community to come together and talk about race in Fort Collins and how it affects every group around the city. Denny felt compelled to send
this message and was able to use her notoriety to spread it. She showed courage in standing up for what she believes when many athletes have been criticized for voicing theirs. In women’s basketball, the Swedish duo of Nystrom and Gustavsson will be graduating after starting all four years and leading the Rams to four consecutive conference regular season titles, something never done in the Mountain West by a men’s or women’s team. The duo was able to find unbreakable chemistry together, helping Nystrom become the all-time leader in assists at CSU. They also tied the school record for most wins between a pair after their first round win over Saint Mary’s in the WNIT in March. The win tied them with CSU basketball legend Becky Hammon and her counterpart Katie Cronin. They led the team in the most successful era of women’s
basketball at CSU, maintaining humility throughout. Constantly, they deflected questions about themselves and always thanked their teammates and coaches and did not care too much for the personal accolades that came in abundance. Last, but certainly not least, is Rams softball player Haley Hutton. Like Nystrom and Gustavsson, she has started all four years during her time at CSU, setting numerous records along the way. She is the all-time leader in runs scored, and with seven games left in the season, she is seven hits away from becoming the all-time leader in hits. Her .394 batting average coming into the season was the highest ever for a Ram, and she has kept it up this season with a .382 average. She has been named to the Mountain West all-conference teams her first three seasons and was voted a preseason
All-American honorable mention coming into her senior year. “Peach,” a nickname she has acquired due to her resemblance to the character in Super Mario, will truly be remembered as one of the best players the Rams have seen. Hutton came to CSU to continue her family’s legacy with the school following in the footsteps of her grandpa, who served as the head athletic trainer for 31 years, and mother, who won two conference titles with CSU softball. Despite not bringing home a conference title, Hutton set a standard Rams will attempt to emulate for years to come. These four have left an incredible mark the CSU community as a whole. On behalf of all Rams fans and media members, I would like to thank these players and every student-athlete graduating this spring for four outstanding years.

SOFTBALL
Isolation to inspiration: How one little girl has inspired CSU softball By Austin White @ajwrules44
Inside the left brim of Colorado State softball coach Jen Fisher’s visor, there is a message that promotes something much bigger than the outcome on the field. It reads: #MaleaStrong. Malea Perea-Martinez was born on Oct. 30, 2015 to her parents Melissa and Jeremy. Melissa Martinez just finished her fifth season as an assistant coach on the Colorado State University softball team after being brought on in 2011 by Fisher. The two met when Martinez played for Fisher all the way down in La Junta, Colorado at Otero Junior College. She transferred to CSU-Pueblo to finish her eligibility, and it was there when she received a call from Fisher, who was in need of an assistant coach. They coached together for a season at Otera before Fisher became the head coach at Metro State, allowing Martinez to take over head coaching duties. Four years later, Fisher was hired at CSU and she immediately brought her friend along as an assistant. After her wedding, which Fisher was a part of, Martinez coached the 2015 season pregnant with her daughter, something that filled the entire team with excitement. “We were super excited,” senior second baseman Taryn Arcarese said. “We love her as a person and always loved her as a coach. Seeing her take those next steps in her life…we couldn’t wait for the baby to come.” The day finally came for little Malea to be born and the family was met with troublesome news. She had been born with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID), meaning she had no immune system to help fight off any potential sickness. Malea lacked the T-cells that help fight off bacteria and prevent illness.
>> STADIUM from page 1 brought in with the help of central receiving to help account for bicycle storage. On-campus Celebrations Once on campus, that is when the real party begins. Starting this fall, there will be weekly pre-game concerts on the west lawn of the Lory Student Center. Students will be encouraged to gather and spend the hours leading up to the game with their fellow community members. In the sculpture garden, those who are of legal age will be able to purchase alcoholic beverages.
The family had to live in isolation for six months before Malea could receive a transplant to help boost her T-cell levels. The only people who came over were Melissa and Jeremy’s parents. Before the transplant, they had to wear a mask, gown and gloves to avoid infecting Malea. One of the parents also had to stay home with Malea all day to watch over her and prevent contact with any kind of bacteria. Martinez assumed those duties, forcing her to step away from the softball team in order to care for her daughter. “Obviously we wanted what was best for coach Martinez and Malea so we understood she had to step away and put all her focus towards Malea,” Arcarese said. “No parent should have to go through that situation…we were just sending all our prayers towards that precious little baby.” Stepping away from softball
was only the beginning as the family found out in January 2016 that Malea required a bone marrow transplant to help her start producing her own T-cells. The operation was completed on April 29th and Malea finally had a proper amount of T-cells. That was until mid-June when the doctors found out that Malea’s body had been slowly rejecting her medicine, causing the T-cell levels to decline. The only option was to try a new medicine and test it for a month. She started the new medicine with only 17 percent donor cells. In one month, however, she was back up to 95 percent, the level she was at after the transplant. “In one month it turned around from 17 percent to 95 percent which knocked everybody’s socks off,” Martinez said. “It was a total miracle…nobody expected that at all, so we are just very thankful for that.” Through it all, Malea showed great strength. She literally smiled in the face of adversity by giving a grin at every turn, even after chemotherapy treatments forced her to throw up after drinking her bottle. “You knew she felt not very good because you could see it in her face,” Melissa said. “She would just smile and giggle and laugh. She is so strong.” That strength has inspired the CSU softball team, who has been with Malea and her family through it all. Despite not being able to play with her in person or see her at games, the team was eager to welcome in a new baby to their softball family. One way the Perea-Martinez family has been able to introduce family friends to Malea is through something they call “window time.” Whoever comes over will sit on the porch outside of the house, call them and put the phone on speaker so they can talk to Malea and hear her while she is playing
with her toys in the living room. The softball team heard about this and thought there would be no better window time than on Malea’s first birthday. “When they came over for her birthday I just lost it,” Martinez said. “They are just such great role models for Malea and they loved her before she was even born.” The team joined other members of the family who came to see Malea for the first time and was able to share that moment with them. They saw Malea open all of her presents and witness that unforgettable, adorable smile. “She is just the happiest little baby ever, she is always smiling,” Arcarese said. “We could tell it meant a lot to coach Martinez that we are still thinking of her even if she isn’t physically here, she’s still with us.” The team has continued to
support Malea and the family through every battle and have used her fight to inspire them throughout the season. All year the team has worn purple bracelets with “#MaleaStrong” on them to remind the girls that at the end of the day, it is just softball. “Softball is just a sport,” Arcarese said. “When we are out there and we’re doing sprints, it could be so much worse than having to do conditioning. It puts everything in perspective for us a little bit in terms of how blessed we are to be able to play collegiate athletics.” “We were watching one of the games when they were in Texas and every single one of the girls was wearing Malea’s bracelet,” Martinez said. “It brought us all to tears. It is so amazing that they love us and support us…it makes me get choked up just thinking see WHITE on page 15 >>
“We are really trying to make the west lawn of the LSC and the sculpture garden a special place to be on gameday,” Assistant Athletic Director for Marketing and Digital Media Nick Popplewell said. “We know Fort Collins is all about the music (scene),” Popplewell said. “We have been working through the Bohemian Foundation to line up some acts, but the expectation is we will be able to line up a concert series on the west lawn, as well as coordinate other food vendors, activities and games.” Unlike at Hughes Stadium,
in-stadium wifi will be available, so posting selfies and updating your status will be easier than ever. With increased technology, pre-game festivities and other events still being planned, the idea is to make the stadium the place to be on Saturdays this fall. Whether you are a diehard Ram fan that bleeds green and gold, or you are a first-time attendee, the CSU Athletic Department hopes the gameday experience at Colorado State will have something to offer for everyone. “When I think about stu-
dent engagement, I cannot help but think about Moby Arena, when the men’s basketball team hosted San Diego State,” Ferris said. “There is no question that students were the sixth man of that game and really helped create a home court advantage, unlike any other in the country... We are going to work everyday to engage our student-leaders and student-fans, because the energy that the students bring to the stadium makes it a great environment for everybody involved.” On Aug. 5, the University will host a football open house,
where fans will be able to take place in a dry run. The event was designed so fans can learn how to enter the stadium and where their seats are located. The event is primarily for season ticket holders with assigned seats, but students are welcome to the event. The general public will be able to purchases mini plans for tickets (three-game packages), starting on June 26. General public single-game sales start July 26.

Most children born with this disease are admitted almost immediately to the hospital to avoid potential dangers at home, including pets and siblings that could make the baby sick. Fortunately for the Perea-Martinez family, they had just moved into a new home with no pets and Malea was their first child. The doctors allowed Malea to come home, but it was not without a catch.
“We were watching one of the games when they were in Texas and every single one of the girls was wearing Malea’s bracelet,” Perea-Martinez said. “It brought us all to tears. It is so amazing that they love us and support us…it makes me get choked up just thinking about it now.”

>> WHITE from page 14 about it now.” Those bracelets helped the team discover their attitude for the season which has been to never stop trying, even when the odds are against them. “There is no such thing as giving up. Even in your darkest times, even when you have hit the lowest of lows there is always something you can look forward to, there is always some glimmer of hope,” Arcarese said on what Malea has taught the team. “I think the team has really used that in our philosophy this year. It’s one more pitch, one more pitch, one more pitch, never give up.” In addition to the bracelets, before each game the team is handed a “quote card,” as Fisher calls them. The cards have featured pictures of Malea all season to help the team be inspired and play for someone that might not ever get the chance to. Malea is not stuck indoors all the time now, as she has been able to see some of the world from a stroller with a dome over the top that has adopted the nickname of the “Pope-mobile.” “Coach said it gets too hot so it has to be about below 60 degrees and she can take her on a walk around the block, but she has to wear a mask and everything else,” Fisher said. “It’s been hard for her.” That hardship has eased up a bit recently with Malea becoming healthier every day. It also begs the question of whether or not Martinez can return to coaching. For now, she is still focused on taking care of her daughter and waiting until she hears that she is fully recovered. “I would like to return to

coaching, sometimes it’s hard when you have been removed for so long because things change so rapidly,” Martinez said. “Right now I am just kind of focused on Malea and making sure she is healthy.” Malea is making great strides in her health but still has to be poked and prodded in order to receive monthly boosters to her immune system. Throughout the struggle, her positive attitude has never changed. The doctors started reducing her medicine in February of this year and have dropped it lower each month. Her current level is going to be maintained for two months as she moves toward her final test. The last test will see if her T-cells will maintain their function without any assistance from outside medicine. Until then, Malea will be under the watchful eye of her parents who have nothing but love and thankfulness for everything that the softball team has done for them. Through Malea’s courage, the team has learned many lessons on not only softball, but life in general. Malea may only be 1-anda-half years old, but she has taught everyone involved in her life what the true heart of a champion is. “Being a coach you think you know what toughness is, you think you know what strength is, you think you know what being a champion is,” Martinez said. “After being with Malea, she has redefined so many words for me…she is just awesome, I love that kid so much.” Austin White can be reached by email at sports@ collegian.com.

Colorado State alumna opens local tattoo shop By Miranda Moses @mirandasrad There is a tiny house on the edge of Mulberry Street in Fort Collins. It has that Fort Collins charm, a feeling of being quaint, yet perhaps haunted. The back entrance of the house shares a parking lot with a Peak Community Church. A little brick walkway leads to a bright red back door, and once inside, chatter and clips of a hair salon fills the air and the light steps of people getting massages in the basement below. The vibe is fanciful and feminine, the perfect place to get a tattoo. Tattoo artist and Colorado State University alumna Audrey Ancell hosted the grand opening of her tattoo shop, Modern Medium Tattoo Studio, in one of the upper units of the 311 E Mulberry St. house on April 1. Ancell graduated from CSU with a Bachelors Degree in fine arts with a concentration in graphic design. Soon after, she worked as a graphic designer but found unrest in working behind a computer. “I found that the artistry of it all was lost,” Ancell said. “There was a lot of formatting, which I knew was apart of it. It was not nearly as creative as I needed it to be. It just did not speak to me, and so I decided to start tattooing and putting out my art into the world.” Ancell pursued a one-year apprenticeship in Berthoud, Colorado, to learn the trade of her new career and how she could apply her own art and style to the art of tattooing. While the new tattoo artist said she learned a lot during this time, she also found issues with that tattoo world that she did not like. “My thing is, I wanted to be able to bring my mom into a place that she would feel comfortable getting tattooed, and I did not see that anywhere,” Ancell said. “Women especially, the the popularity of things like under-boob tattoos and all these intimate areas, they are having to go to these spaces that make them uncomfortable. So, I want to change that. That is why I am here.” Rebecca Tatman is the owner and operator of Simply Enhancing Beauty Lounge, the salon that shares space with Ancell in the Mulberry house. “I definitely had a mix of reactions knowing a tattoo parlor was going to be sharing building space,” Tatman said. “I was excited to have the space filled and have new energy in the building. I was also a little weary too because of misconceptions of the personality or ‘type’ of person attracted to doing tattoos, you know, a little rough around the edges, maybe
Check It Out: Hours of operation: Wednesday-Sunday 12 p.m.-8p.m. Location: 311 E. Mulberry St, Ste. D not someone you want to share space with. But, honestly, I knew it would work out because I know I am not perfect and a little rough around the edges as well. She is totally cute, dready girl. Not your typical tattoo artist. Getting to know her and have a conversation with her is very easy. She is very nice and has good energy.” Ancell is in the works of drawing up tattoos for both Tatman and Tatman’s daughter. Ancell said she wants the feeling of her tattoo parlor to have more of a spa-feeling, which is why the location of her tattoo parlor is prime. “She really tries to go against the norm of the tattoo world,” said Olive Ancell, Audrey Ancell’s sister who is a junior at CSU and has received all four of her tattoos from her sibling, one of which being a matching alien tattoo they both have. “She makes her shop super zen and clean, unlike other parlors that can look a bit intimidating.” Ancell immerses her whole life into making art. Along with her tattooing, she is also a painting instructor at Painting with a Twist. For now, Ancell’s studio is white and bare with newness, but she plans to hang some of her artwork on the walls. Her drawings range from intricate illustrations of beautiful wood-nymph women to howling wolves, all brought to life with shades of markers. The artist says she is currently working on cleaning out and giving away her physical artwork collection and focusing on the art that does not clutter her house but lives on people’s bodies. “I love this huge transformation that happens with people,” said Ancell. “They go from coming in and being very nervous, to in a lot of pain because it is painful, but as it is done and they see that work of art on their bodies it all disappears. They’re like, ‘You did this for me!’ It’s the greatest feeling in the world.” Not only does Ancell’s vision for her studio center around creating a comfortable environment for people to get custom tattoos, she also prides herself on giving her clients exactly what they want. “I have found through both getting tattoos myself and hearing other people’s experiences that there is always this want to change someone’s vision into something you as an artist wants to do,” Ancell said. “I do not think

that that is how it should be. I think if you come and you say, ‘I want this tattoo, it means a lot to me,’ you should get that tattoo.” Client Lizz Arnold received her first tattoo from Ancell, an extensive black and white floral piece on her rib cage and down the side of her stomach. “I do photography on the side, so I wanted someone who would be able to draw what I saw in my head as a photograph into a tat-
too,” Arnold said. “I’m picky when it comes to what I see. Audrey was really understanding of that and cared about giving me what I wanted. I picked out the things I did not like or wanted changed, and she was never frustrated with me, always understanding.” Ancell said her style of tattooing is a combination of neo-traditional and “old-school-esque,” somewhere in between realism and traditional. Her minimum is
$50, and she provides CSU students with a 20 percent discount who bring their CSU IDs. Her art and tattoo work can be found on her Facebook page.

New music-based fraternity for international women charters By Maddie Wright @maddierwright
The new female fraternity, Sigma Alpha Iota, recently chartered as a colony at Colorado State University. SAI is a place for female international students to come together and express their musical talents. Currently, SAI does not have a house and instead holds their meetings and events at the University Center for the Arts. Outgoing President Hannah Ramirez said she joined the organization because she wanted to make more female friends. “I really wanted a sisterhood, and when I found out I could share my love for music with other women, I felt like it was the perfect place for me to be,” Ramirez said. The female fraternity began in 2013, but the group was not chartered until late this semester. “The chartering process for our national headquarters is very intense and arduous,” Ramirez said. According to Ramirez, the chartering process requires a lot of paperwork and research on the school, specifically its music professors. Unlike some Greek organizations who have a nation-
al representative to assist with the chartering requirements, SAI had to do it alone. Although it is a small fraternity with only 15 active members in the CSU colony, it is based in leadership development and the connection of music. SAI outgoing Treasurer Bethany Roof said having a small groups sometimes works to their benefit. “(Some members in the bigger organizations) have sisters they’ve never talked to,” Roof said. “I’m super close with every single one of my sisters.” This organization is unique because it identifies as a women’s fraternity as opposed to a sorority. According to Ramirez, this is because the language used to describe Greek Life is limiting to women, and the term “women’s fraternity” equates their organization to the male organizations. “Our founders felt that they wanted to be basically equal to the men, (and) that by establishing a sorority, it was undermining the fact that women were equal to men,” Ramirez said. While SAI is a music fraternity, not all the members are music majors. However, as a music fraternity, the group will perform in recitals, create music and bond as a music-lovers,. What makes
this group special is their musically-based philanthropy work. “The Library of Congress sent us music, and we took the music, blew it up, removed the white space, increased the font size and it got re-published in the Library of Congress so that hard-of-sight musicians can have access to music they wouldn’t normally be able to read,” Ramirez said. According to Ramirez, women tend to get erased from music’s history. Ramirez explained that we all know names like Mozart and Beethoven, but we often overlook female composers, and even today women struggle to be taken seriously in the music industry. “It’s important for women within the world of music to find each other and really share their passion and be able to support each other in a place that doesn’t necessarily want them to succeed,” Ramirez said. Ramirez said that although they are a small group, they have a unique sisterhood. “We all share the same love of music,” Ramirez said. “Which brings us together in ways you’d never expect it to.” Maddie Wright can be reached at entertainment@ collegian.com.

CSU tuba players perform at international race in Bahrain By Matthew Smith @latvatalo
Last week, the Formula 1 Gulf Bahrain Grand Prix was commenced with a performance by the world champion Blue Knights Drum and Bugle Corps. Among the hundred or so elite American performers was Tuba player Kelci Hartz, and the pressure could not have been greater. “I just hope I didn’t mess up anything while they were looking at me,” Hartz said. Hartz marched alongside the supercar track with international TV cameras in the grandstand. “You can’t even imagine,” Hartz said. “They were like, ‘Oh yeah, 60 million people are watching this.’” Hartz first picked up the tuba in middle school band. After joining, she recalls being asked which instrument she wanted to play. “The big one,” she said. Seven years later, Hartz is a freshman music major at Colorado State University and representative of the best that American marching band has to offer. The Blue Knights is an international competitive percussive
ensemble with four world championships under its impressive belt. This year, the organization was asked to headline the opening ceremony of the Bahrain Grand Prix in Manama, Bahrain, and they needed some performers. CSU tuba players Kelci Hartz and Tony Villalobos-May ended up on the cast list. “I was not originally in the group,” Hartz said. “Someone dropped out and I was called in as a replacement.” Director of Operations GM Kuzma was one of the people responsible for getting the Blue Knights performance ready. “We would only had less than 30 total hours of rehearsal together to learn seven songs with drill and choreography before we departed for Bahrain,” Kuzma said. After two months of rehearsal, Hartz was on a red-eye flight for Bahrain, a tiny, yet rich Iisland kingdom in the Persian Gulf. This was her first time traveling overseas. “You get to experience that whole culture in a different way than it gets presented to you in America,” Hartz said. see TUBA on page 20 >>

Six album releases to lookout for this summer By Alec Erickson @CTV_Ace
With summer vacation less than two weeks away, we can welcome in the free time with some new music. From classic artists to more contemporary ones, there is plenty of new music to fill out your summer playlist. Here are some releases that you should keep an eye out for this summer: Snoop Dogg – “Neva Left” May 19. Snoop Dogg is about to release his 15th studio album. “Neva Left” will feature Snoop Dogg in the raw form that got him so popular. The single he released called “Mount Kushmore” has given us just a taste of what is to come. The track listing shows that this record will be a lengthy one with 16 tracks and over an hour long in run time. Snoop Dogg will surely give us plenty of new music that will be on repeat for the whole summer. Bleachers – “Gone Now” June 2. When Bleachers first released music back in 2014, they became popular with hits like “I Wanna Get Better” and “Rollercoaster.” While Bleachers started as just a side project for the band Fun.’s Jack Antonoff, it has proven to be a success all on its own. Finally, we are on the verge
of having the sophomore record from the band, “Gone Now.” This is one indie pop band that will round out summer playlists with good vibes and a lot of fun, exciting music. Alt-j – “Relaxer” June 9. Alt-j is now entering their 10th year as a band. To help mark that accomplishment, the indie rock band from the United Kingdom is releasing their third studio album, “Relaxer.” While it is not hard for the band to dominate the airwaves, we have not heard that much from this album. It is a shorter one, having only eight tracks and clocking in at only 40 minutes in length, but expect everyone to be listening to some Alt-j this summer. Lorde – “Melodrama” June 16. The 20-year-old phenomenon best known by her stage name, Lorde, is back. Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor became popular with her first studio album “Pure Heroine.” With her melancholy and somber voice, her sophomore attempt, “Melodrama,” is already looking to be a lot more mature and rounded out. The single she released called “Green Light” showcases how much Lorde has grown as an artist. Keep any eye
out for this album, or you will be missing out for sure. HAIM – “Something to Tell You” July 7. The 10-year-old female powerhouse act HAIM has only put out one record so far. Although, they still manage to tour and stay relevant. Now, HAIM is finally about to release their sophomore record “Something to Tell You.” There is not much information about this project yet, but it should be just as fun and enjoyable as their debut album. With a mid-summer release, they may have a late-summer tour, so be on the lookout. PVRIS – “All We Know of Heaven, All We Need of Hell” August 4. Releasing a new single and announcing their new album, PVRIS is on track to make 2017 their own. This rock band released their debut album “White Noise” back in 2014. Now, just three years later, we get the highly anticipated follow up release, “All We Know of Heaven, All We Need of Hell.” The one released single, “Heaven,” has plenty of fans hyped up for the sophomore record. This will a strong record to round out summer on a good note. Alec Erickson can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

>> TUBA from page 18 From the Blue Knights’ hotel in downtown Manama, Hartz could get an impression of the capitol city. “They have murals of the king on a bunch of the big buildings in the capitol,” Hartz said. Along with admiration for the king, they are also patriotic about their country, she said. “There’s a lot of flags,” Hartz said. “There are more Bahraini flags in Bahrain than you will ever see American flags here, which is saying something.” The country is ever-expanding, Hartz said. “In Manama, when they run out of coastline they just build more coastline out into the gulf,” Hartz said. “So, we were facing this really weird peninsula that they were building they were going to build a resort on in the future.” The whole week from the dress rehearsal to game day,
temperatures were pushing 100 degrees. “I can’t even imagine living there in summer,” Hartz said. “The AC business must be booming.” The Blue Knights were to be the final act of the ceremony, just before the Formula 1 cars roared to life for the first heat of the Grand Prix. They were marching in the racetrack. “We rehearsed on a field with lines so you could tell where to go, and then you get to the track and there’s nothing,” Hartz said. “There’s the boxes for the cars to start. ‘We’ll go close to the number seven box I guess’ because that’s all you have to reference.” The 15-minute set covered a selection of seven pop and marching tunes. Afterword, the Blue Knights got to watch the race itself along with a diverse pool of performers from around the world “They had an Olympic diving
team that was performing, they have circus performers, they had people dressed up as Disney princesses, all the things you can possibly imagine,” Hartz said. “It’s like a big fair with fast cars” However, the Blue Knights’ routine stuck out as a particularly unique performance, according to Hartz. “It’s the first time that a drum corp has performed in that country,” Hartz said. “They don’t really have that over there. They have their police band and that’s about it. One of the police band members took a selfie with me. It was the best moment of my life. He was like ‘whoa a tuba!’ And I was like ‘yeah!’” Another 20 hours of travel and a layover in Frankfurt later, Hartz was back stateside and Kumza was proud. “We are proud of the effort they put into making their show amazing.” Matt Smith can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

Netflix adaptation of ‘Dear White People’ mixes personal and political for best of both worlds By Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times
In the appealing new Netflix comedy “Dear White People,” Justin Simien expands his 2014 movie about black life at a mostly white Ivy League college into a 10-part series. That this review is written by a white person would matter to some of the characters within the context of the series, but some of those characters would also wonder whether it should. It’s an issues-based Socratic comedy, of sorts, in which someone is nearly always bantering, debating or arguing; but it’s a romantic comedy as well, and a college comedy in a long tradition of them. The series has a sort of round-robin structure, each episode focusing on a different character, moving the story forward as it replays earlier action in new context, adding back stories and side plots for depth and breadth. (It’s a little like the Netflix season of “Arrested Development” in that regard.) At its axis, more or less, is Winchester University student Samantha White (Logan Browning). A “junior media-studies major and local provocateur,” Sam hosts a college-radio program called “Dear White People,” in which
she takes calls and talks mainly about how white people get black people wrong, even when acting out of what they perceive as genuine interest or brotherly/sisterly good will. Sam is biracial, but as best friend Joelle (Ashley Blaine Featherson) tells her, “You’re not Rashida Jones biracial, you’re Tracee Ellis Ross biracial _ people think of you as black.” “Dear White People,” Sam says to her radio audience, early in the story. “Here’s a list of acceptable Halloween costumes. A pirate, slutty nurse, any of our first 43 presidents. Top of the list unacceptable costumes, me.” As in the film, a “blackface party” held by white students has caused a stir _ through perhaps not enough of a stir _ on campus. (“Google it,” we are advised, to know whether such things are real; I did, they are.) Character-defining action, reaction and revelation will follow, but by splitting the narrative among different points of view, Simien keeps his story fluid and meanings in play. None of his characters knows everything; each is wrong sometimes. The title notwithstanding, the series has much to do with conflicting voices within the school’s black community _ who speaks for the people, how
do they speak, who is woke and who is not, and is it safe to admit that one has been secretly streaming “The Cosby Show”? The series feels a little overstuffed at first with signs and signifiers, as pop-cultural names and phenomena set the scene and characters begin to differentiate themselves, both from other characters and from the familiar school-comedy types they at first seem to represent: the jock, the nerd, the queen bee, the angry dude, the foreign student, the insufficiently defined best friend. Indeed, deep down, “Dear White People” is very much a story of evolving identity, not just racial or sexual but the more general work of young people figuring out who they are and what in the world they want. (There is a millennial aspect to the series as well; at times it could be called “Dear Old People.”) Some of what they want, of course, is one another. Sam has a white boyfriend, secretly at first; fellow film enthusiast Gabe (John Patrick Amedori). News of his existence will surprise Joelle because, as she reminds Sam, they “met in the comments section of that Medium article you wrote, ‘Don’t Fall in Love with see NETFLIX on page 22 >>

22 Thursday, May 4, 2017 | The Rocky Mountain Collegian >> RESEARCH from page 3 “It’s quite inhumane,” Faulkner said. “We’re talking about actual human beings that have livers, brains and hearts. They’re actually living, breathing beings.” Faulkner said fetal tissue should not be necessary for research on curing or preventing HIV and AIDS, as there is also gene replacement therapy, which takes HIV out of infected cells, and pre-exposure prophylaxis treatment, which consists of taking a pill daily to prevent HIV. Faulkner also said that researchers could use induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) created from adult cells instead of stem cells from fetal tissue. Pluripotent cells have the ability to become any cell in the body. However, according to Ru>> LETTERS from page 9 boom for landlords.” Rent College Pads is an off-campus marketplace and search engine that helps college students find housing.

Proposed future development of the Poudre presents strong challenges to sustaining the ecosystem that we have today.” Planning the future of the Front Range The Colorado Department of Local Affairs reports that population in Larimer and Weld counties is forecast to increase by 92 percent from 2015 to 2045, exceeding the 53 percent growth forecast in the statewide population. In addition to the increased municipal demand for water, this level of growth has been attributed as responsible for traffic problems, both local and statewide housing shortages, and increasingly unaffordable housing. Despite the region experiencing a slight economic dip due to layoffs in the oil and gas industry as the price of oil lowered, the estimates of the North Front Range Metropolitan Planning Organization say that employment in the region is projected to increase by 80 percent between 2010 and 2040. The rising cost of living associated with these trends is causing people who hold jobs in metropolitan areas, but who cannot afford the high price tag of living within city limits, to move to smaller communities to take advantage of the more affordable sprawl. These ‘bedroom com-

Akkina uses stem cells from fetal tissue to recreate human immune systems in mice, which Rudolph said are multicellular systems. Akkina’s humanized mice can be used to study the effects of countermeasures, including therapeutics, antibodies, vaccines or biologics, on a human immune system meant to improve or cure HIV. Rudolph said that while scientists are looking into how to >> NETFLIX from page 21 Your Oppressor: A Black Girls’ guide to Love at Winchester.” (“It got so many likes,” Sam remembers wistfully.) Sam’s old boyfriend, Troy (Brandon P.

In addition to issues of water supply, there must also be planning to ensure adequate water quality, air quality and transportation to support the population. Numerous infrastructure improvement plans are in the works, but none have been as publicly contentious as NISP. While some opponents of NISP say that stopping the project, and therefore limiting the supply of water available to these developing communities, might be a solution to curb growth, experts say that this is not the case. If absolutely no action is taken, agricultural water rights would be on the hook to make up the difference. “I think it’s true and evident that water is probably not going to be what limits sprawl or growth in this area,” Waskom said. “It’s just got to come out of ag, and it comes out of the environment.

He said that cells from fetal tissue are so far back in their development that they have the ability to create complex functions that are lost when cells become older. Cells are more pluripotent. Faulkner said she hopes that scientists research and work with iPS stem cells. “The lives of those affected by HIV/AIDS are very important, but so are the lives of the unborn,” Faulkner wrote in a message to the Collegian. “We cannot forget equality for all.” MQ Borocz can be reached at news@collegian.com. ry with Sam. And then there’s Reggie (Marque Richardson, also from the film), who likes somebody, and is liked by somebody, and so on.

It doesn’t skip a beat.” Solutions Some groups are seeking to transcend the back-and-forth over NISP by way of compromise. Rather than depending on large new reservoirs and diversions, the nonprofit group, Western Resource Advocates, proposes an alternative plan with a diverse water supply portfolio. WRA’s ‘A Better Future for the Poudre River’ plan would, like NISP, provide 40,000 acre-feet of water to participants annually, but would utilize conservation, reuse, water transferred as a result of growth onto irrigated agricultural lands and voluntary agreements with agriculture. The Poudre Runs Through It, a group of professionals facilitated by CSU’s Colorado Water Institute, is looking at ways to bring together the diverse stakeholders on the river and to explore the continuing challenges and opportunities for collaboration. “I think until we start to engage more people in that discussion and more groups in that discussion, this is going to be a real tough thing to crack,” said Kehmeier, who is also a member of The Poudre Runs Through It. “It’s going to take more of the water users on the system than just one to make this work.” Julia Rentsch can be reached at news@collegian.com.
