CSU football season opener canceled due to health concerns Rise in New Mexico COVID-19 cases causes Mountain West to cancel the game

By Bailey Bassett @baileybassett_

Tusinksi said. “So don’t have police try to be jacks-of-all-trades.

Have specialists for mental health crises for people ... on drugs, those kinds of things. We shouldn’t have the police dipping into every kind of category and not being able to effectively do their jobs wholeheartedly.”

Fans of Colorado State University football had their hearts broken on Tuesday, Oct. 20. Anticipation was high for the CSU football game scheduled for Saturday at Canvas Stadium against the University of New Mexico. Fans would get a look at the fresh CSU football team led by new head coach Steve Addazio.

After abysmal seasons with Mike Bobo at the helm, having an overall coaching record of 28-35, CSU needed a change at the head coaching job. The new coach from Boston College breathed new life into CSU’s less than adequate football program. However, on Tuesday, news broke that the Mountain West would cancel the game. Fans will have to wait another week for CSU’s next scheduled football game, away from home at California State University, Fresno on Oct. 29.

“Due to the prevalence of COVID-19 in Bernalillo County and in accordance with state guidelines, (the University of New Mexico) is unable to participate in the game on Oct. 24 at (Colorado State University),” a Mountain West tweet read. “The (Mountain West) is canceling the game and declaring it a no-contest. There is no plan to reschedule the game.”

Breaking down ‘defund the police’ and what that means locally

By Natalie Weiland @natgweiland

In recent months, the phrase “defund the police” has become a rallying cry for protesters in the wake of George Floyd’s death. The phrase appears anywhere from masks and T-shirts to protests in the street, but what does it actually look like? And

what would it mean in Fort Collins?

At its core, the movement to defund the police advocates for the reallocation of some funds from police departments to community resources, such as mental health services, aimed at preventing crime from happening in the first place. This means that existing police systems would

remain intact, just with reforms intended to increase safety and decrease the use of deadly force.

Dylan Tusinski, a sophomore and the president of Rams For Progress, supports the movement.

“Obviously I think what we need to do is defund the police and, you know, focus more on community-based policing,”

Hairy is scary.

CSU Jewish community reacts to Diversity Symposium speaker

By Serena Bettis @serenaroseb

Amid a week of educational discussions brought to campus by the 20th annual Diversity Symposium, the Jewish community at Colorado State University continues to fight anti-Semitism.

Five days prior to the opening keynote speech Oct. 19, a Jewish faculty member sent an email to Carolin Aronis, co-chair of the Presidential Task Force on Jewish Inclusion and the Prevention of Anti-Semitism, and two other faculty members, expressing concern over the choice of Melina Abdullah, a professor at California State University and a founder of the Black Lives Matter movement, as Monday’s keynote speaker, who has been associated with an anti-Semitic minister and group.

“On one hand, we’re seeing a great network of support growing within the CSU Jewish community, bonding, supporting each other and ready to speak

out against the harassment and discrimination we have faced,” Aronis said. “On the other hand, we are legitimately concerned by attempts to misrepresent our community, something that can divide us from other minority groups.”

Aronis added that they are also seeing relationships grow with other communities and appreciate the support they have received from ethnic studies members.

The concern over Abdullah as a keynote speaker stems from a 2019 tweet she made defending Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the Nation of Islam who frequently uses anti-Semitic and anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric, and her appearances at events hosted by the NOI. “We were totally shocked; we were disheartened, just hurt that someone with a known association to a hate group with such anti-Semitic, such anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, was even considered,” said Julia Rosenwald, a graduate student and member of the Pres-

idential Task Force.

An African American religious and political organization, the Nation of Islam was founded in 1930 and has many ties to racial justice figures and movements, including Malcolm X and the Million Man March.

However, the Southern Poverty Law Center, a nonprofit group, and the Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish non-governmental organization, have accused the Nation of Islam and Farrakhan of continuous anti-Semitism.

Rabbi Yerachmiel Gorelik, who is the faculty advisor for the Chabad Jewish Student Association and several other Jewish student organizations, director of the Rohr Chabad Jewish Center of Northern Colorado and an instructor in the department of philosophy, expressed his support of the Black Lives Matter movement and his desire to have a more inclusive keynote speaker, alongside members of the Presidential Task Force.

“We’re all here for the same

goal, no matter which group you’re a part of, which is to create a more inclusive, happier, kinder, unified, diverse society, with greater tolerance, acceptance and warmth to one another and unity,” Gorelik said.

With that goal in mind, Gorelik said his hope is to ensure that not one person feels ignored, hurt or attacked at an event emphasizing diversity. “(The) Black community has a common history and many shared interests with the Jewish community,” Aronis said. “Abdullah’s appearance was a critical moment for accountability in order to defend the legitimacy of civil rights movements from hateful agendas and exploitation. CSU’s Black community knows that we stand with them in demanding justice and equal protection and that this matter was about Dr. Abdullah’s association with Farrakhan.”

The Office of the Vice President for Diversity released a statement Oct. 18 recognizing and apologizing for the harm

that this situation caused to the community.

“The VPD remains committed to hearing from Dr. Abdullah in her keynote this week, affirming her powerful message about anti-Blackness in America,” the statement said. “We also condemn anti-Semitism and recognize the deep harm that the rise in this rhetoric, and the violence that emerges from it, has caused for our Jewish community here at CSU, in Fort Collins and around the country.”

Abdullah responded to the concerns in her Oct. 19 speech, according to The Collegian.

“Those who are committed to racial and social justice should consider what side they stand on and challenge sources of such nefarious attempts to derail Black freedom struggle and my work in particular,” Abdullah said. “I am not going to be forced to justify my existence or answer obviously false allegations. That’s their work.”

DEFUND >> from page 1 Change is already being enacted at the federal level.

In June of this year, the Congressional Black Caucus introduced the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act of 2020, aimed at reforming the U.S. policing system in the interest of improved safety and justice.

The bill, which included reforms such as the banning of chokeholds and the classification of lynching as a federal crime, was passed in the House of Representatives and awaits further action in the Senate.

Congressman Joe Neguse of Colorado’s 2nd congressional district, who helped introduce the bill, said in a press release that “it’s time we create structural change with meaningful reforms.”

However, the movement to “defund the police” and shift to a focus on community services raises concerns, especially regarding how police departments would function in the face of a decrease in funds.

“I don’t think defunding the police is gonna ultimately make or break society,” said Kira Carmical, a CSU freshman. “I think we need to keep our police, keep aiding them, but again, we’re still going to need that money to do that. Their main goal isn’t to do some of the things we’ve seen in the news.”

At CSU, plans are being made to implement the incorporation of mental health professionals “when responding to situations when a police presence alone may not be the best approach,” wrote Wendy Rich-Goldschmidt, Colorado State University Police Department interim executive director of campus safety and security, in an email to The Collegian.

Further, she wrote, officers have undergone trainings to understand “human bias related to ethnicity and race, gender, sexual orientation, body shape and age and how those biases impact policing and skill training for using a fair and impartial lens.”

“Colorado State University Police Department is committed to equitable treatment of all members of our University and broader Fort Collins and Colorado communities,” Rich-Goldschmidt wrote.

As for the City of Fort Collins, changes have already been implemented with the Fort Collins Police Services Mental Health Co-Responder Program, which aims to increase safety in policing by sending mental health “co-responders” to “join officers on scene to assess and refer community members to appropriate services,” according to the FCPS webpage.

In an email to The Collegian, Kate Kimble, a representative for the FCPS, explained that “Through collaborative partnership, team members have successfully coordinated long-term care solutions for individuals instead of relying solely on short-term tools like jail and the hospital emergency room.”

Efforts at reform don’t stop there, however. The City’s plan for integration of this program features multiple iterations.

As explained in the email, “The first iteration was traditional co-response with a primary response model, in other words, the clinician rode with police rather than dispatching from the department after the call.”

Now in the second iteration, an advanced practice paramedic along with a licensed clinician respond to calls along with police and other first responders to ensure that community members are matched with an appropriate response for their situation, according to the email from Kimble.

In the future, Kimble says, FCPS plans to create a Community Behavioral Health Unit to pair officers with a medic or clinician. These teams “would field all calls for service with a behavioral health and/or medical etiology” in order to maintain the expectation of police response while acknowledging that outside intervention may be necessary.

“Officers are not trying to be, nor did they sign up to be, medical or behavioral health personnel,” Kimble continued. “They signed up to ensure we have safe communities. FCPS’ innovative approach to the needs of the community is one to celebrate, as it represents a future and community-oriented mindset in which de-escalation isn’t just a tool they utilize when needed, it is a mindset and a core value.”

SPEAKER >> from page 3 According to members of the Task Force, in discussions with the VPD it appears that the selection committee for the Diversity Symposium did not research Abdullah before inviting her, but instead based their decision off of lectures they heard from her in the past.

The VPD told the Task Force that if they had known about Abdullah’s relationship to the Nation of Islam and Farrakhan, they would not have invited her.

“There’s a very prevalent anti-Semitic campus culture, unfortunately, that we hope to eliminate. ... Some of our goals are to educate the campus and use this as a way to bring together all of our minority groups to really make sure that all of us are safe.”

JULIA ROSENWALD GRADUATE STUDENT AND PRESIDENTIAL TASK FORCE ON JEWISH INCLUSION AND THE PREVENTION OF ANTI-SEMITISM MEMBER

President Joyce McConnell followed with an email Monday morning acknowledging the situation the Jewish and Black communities were put in, despite not playing a part in the keynote speaker selection.

“We are most grateful to President McConnell for her apologetic, conciliatory and compassionate response to this situation, despite it being a very complex controversy to navigate,” Gorelik said. “She genuinely wishes to protect all groups from any harm.”

In a Tuesday panel at the Diversity Symposium, members of the Presidential Task Force shared a compilation video of anti-Semitic statements made

by Farrakhan and discussed what makes them so harmful to the Jewish community.

“I think, as inflammatory as that video is, it’s really important for people to understand our emotional reaction to Farrakhan in a general sense because he outlines what Jewish stereotypes (are),” said Mica Glantz, a CSU professor of anthropology and ethnic studies, during the panel. “It’s exactly these tropes that we get caught in this Catch-22. … And so it’s very important for us to begin the education around what those stereotypes are and how damaging they are.”

Glantz said that when the Jewish community expresses concerns over these comments, it can look like they are controlling the media and creating a conspiracy, which is a common anti-Semitic stereotype. For those not familiar with Jewish history and anti-Semitic tropes, Glantz said, they might not realize what is happening.

After the Task Force convened in June, its members started work on surveying Jewish students on campus to gain a deeper understanding of experiences of anti-Semitism on campus.

Third-year student Matthew Zidbeck, a leader of CSU Chabad and member of the Task Force, said that many of the students he spoke with mentioned they feel unheard by the University, and he thinks this situation is the product of CSU not listening to Jewish students. “(Now) that we have the task force, I’m super honored and glad that we could have this conversation because this was the first time that the Jewish population was invited to the Diversity Symposium,” Zidbeck said. “Unfortunately, we had to be under these circumstances, but I’m glad that the Task Force existed and that we were able to have these talks because this is a testimony to Joyce (McConnell) and the rest of the CSU (administration) looking out for us already.”

Rosenwald reemphasized the Task Force’s support of Black Lives Matter, the religion of Islam, LGBTQ+ groups and all other minority religions and groups.

“There’s a very prevalent anti-Semitic campus culture, unfortunately, that we hope to eliminate,” Rosenwald said.

“Some of our goals are to educate the campus and use this as a way to bring together all of our minority groups to really make sure that all of us are safe. Our goal is to make sure everybody is safe.”

“It was a really crucial accountable moment because we would never want to hurt, in any way, any practice of coming up and bringing scholarship and bringing advocacy to fight Black racism.”

Local fires: What you need to know, updated

By Sam Moccia @SamuelMoccia

Update 10/21: Firefighters managed to hold the fire at 55% containment under similarly critical weather conditions yesterday, after containment on the state’s largest wildfire fell on Monday night from 62% to 51%, according to previous releases.

Despite the intensive redflag conditions which firefighters continue to operate in, Paul Delmerico, operations section chief for Rocky Mountain Incident Management Team 1, mentioned in a Wednesday morning Facebook update that there were “no issues, no concerns all the way around to the west end of the fire from the north end of the fire.”

Delmerico also stated that teams operating on a spot fire just east of the main Cameron Peak fire had “another good day yesterday” and that containment was looking “really

CSU Diversity Symposium: Keynote speaker Melina Abdullah

By Molly O’Shea @Molly_O23

Colorado State University kicked off its 20th Annual Diversity Symposium Monday with multiple panels on racial issues and a keynote address.

The first keynote speaker of the week, Melina Abdullah, is a professor of Pan-African Studies at California State University, Los Angeles, womanist scholar-activist, author, producer, mother and co-host of the radio show “Beautiful Struggle.”

Described as an “expert on race, gender, class and social movements,” Abdullah was among the original organizers of Black Lives Matter and now serves as the LA chapter leader, according to the Symposium’s website.

Abdullah’s talk focused on calling out the white supremacists and patriarchal heteronormative capitalism that has targeted her and other people in America for many years.

Abdullah also called on people to take action and recognize everything that goes into being an abolitionist and revolutionary.

She said that, to do this, people needed to be “calling on the end of the policing system and criminal systems of injustice, fundamentally dismantling the systems of oppression and to vote and to organize.”

“I believe that we can do better. I believe that as the mother, as a single mother of three children, that I owe it to them to build a world where my three Black children can live and walk freely.”

MELINA ABDULLAH KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Abdullah also discussed her reasoning behind what she fights for every day.

“I believe that we can do better,” Abdullah said. “I believe that as the mother, as a single mother of three children, that I owe it to them to build a world where my three Black children can live and walk

freely.”

She explained that she wants to live in a world where her daughter is not targeted by police in the schools she attends and where her son is not being put in gang databases as a first-grader.

“I believe in imagining and building something new that’s grounded in community,” Abdullah said.

This came after she acknowledged the world being “cracked open” by the seemingly recent increase of police brutality toward the Black community, according to Abdullah.

This police brutality stems from the history of policing in this country, she said.

“I want an end to a system that hails from slave-catching,” Abdullah said.

Monday morning, University President Joyce McConnell reached out to the student body to address Abdullah’s keynote address and offer clarification for matters surrounding connections between Abdullah and anti-Semitism.

McConnell explained that she has been made aware of the concerns within the CSU community surrounding Abdullah’s views posted on social

media and her appearances at events held by the Nation of Islam, lead by Louis Farrakhan.

Farrakhan is known to use anti-Semitic and anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric.

“As president, let me be clear that I unequivocally condemn the racist, anti-Semitic and anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric of the Nation of Islam, which is recognized as a hate group by most experts,” McConnell wrote. “I will always stand up for our Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities to ensure they receive equal protections against hate.”

CSU Diversity Symposium: Keynote speaker Claudia Rankine

By Ceci Taylor @cecelia_twt

The 20th annual Diversity Symposium at Colorado State University brought Claudia Rankine, author of “Citizen: An American Lyric,” a book-length poem about race and the Black experience in the United States.

Angelica Murray Olsen, the program coordinator at the Women and Gender Advocacy Center at CSU, introduced the speaker as a collaboration with the Rams Read program. “‘Citizen’ lands on every reader as both an emotional and intellectual journey engaging all senses,” Olsen said.

“I found the stories told to be personally relatable and also reflective of the everyday experiences of Black people in the United States. I’m glad that the impact of this book is one that we can share with all of you.”

Throughout the session, Rankine made references to her book and explained her thought process through the use of images and Black history.

Rankine said that, although the pandemic was able to shut down a lot of things, it was not able to shut down anti-Black racism.

“Somehow, Black people are still being killed in the streets, shot in the back, stopped from breathing,” Rankine said. “So I feel that these discussions are as

crucial as they ever were.”

Rankine talked about the cover of “Citizen,” which depicts a black hood cut off from the rest of the hoodie against a stark white background.

Rankine said the image is titled “In the Hood” and was made by David Hammons in 1993 after the beating of Rodney King.

“What’s amazing about David Hammons is his ability to take one object and have it represent an American dynamic,” Rankine said. “The hoodie, as you know, is one way of criminalizing Black people.”

Rankine also referenced Hammons’ work “Concerto in Black and Blue” where Hammons turned off the lights in an empty gallery. Rankine said that they handed people blue flashlights so as not to bump into anyone else.

“I found it an interesting metaphor to use to think about Blackness,” Rankine said. “That you enter into a kind of space and suddenly racist comments (and) anti-Blackness will just come up out of nowhere; you don’t know when you’re gonna bump into it.”

Rankine also talked about the way Black people have learned to accept the racism they experience. She referenced a story she had heard from a friend who had made a therapist appointment over the phone.

Rankine said the friend had approached the house and

was yelled at by the therapist to leave. When the friend got the chance to explain that she had an appointment, the therapist apologized and let her in.

“When I asked her what she did, she said she went to the appointment,” Rankine said. “I was shocked, ... but we often do that: we often manage racism and take it in and move forward.”

Rankine also talked about her interest in tennis, especially with the racism Serena and Venus Williams experience in the sport.

“I thought I would write this essay about Serena (Williams) because I felt like people had no idea how much she’s had to endure in terms of moments of aggression, misreading, unfair practices — simply because she is a Black woman,” Rankine said.

The essay talks about the Williams sisters’ place in the tennis world, and despite their success, there are always people who are enraged they are there at all.

Rankine also talked about her use of the image of the lynching of Thomas Shipp and Abram Smith in 1930 and why this particular image was the most difficult for her to get for the book.

Rankine said Getty Images was prevented from granting rights to use the image because people were buying the image in support of what was going on in it.

“I guess white suprema-

GRAPHIC ILLUSTRATION BY CHRISTINE MOORE-BONBRIGHT THE COLLEGIAN

cist groups or white people of some kind were buying the image to use it in much the way that lynching postcards were used originally, during Jim Crow,” Rankine said. “They were sent around to friends and family: ‘This is what I did on the weekend.’ And they were also sent through the mail, as acceptable.”

Rankine said that the deaths of Shipp and Smith were horrible enough, but the true horror of the incident was the people attending the lynching, as seen in the picture, and just letting it happen.

Rankine said she removed the hanging Black men from the image to shine a light on the people attending the event.

Rankine ended the lecture with an image by English painter Joseph Mallord William Turner, who painted

“Slave Ship.” Rankine said that this image is interesting to her because Turner painted it at a time when a ship captain, who had thrown dead and dying slaves overboard, was making an insurance claim for the destroyed “merchandise.”

“It wasn’t even about people,” Rankine said. “It was about merchandise. He says he threw the Black people in the ocean to lighten the ship during a storm.”

Rankine said she wanted to end with this painting because she loves it and she loves Turner. She said that no matter what is going on, there are always people who know better and who are anti-racist.

“So if you’re wondering, ‘why do diversity training?’”

Rankine said. “This would be why. Because either you’re racist, or you’re anti-racist.”

By Samantha Ye @samxye4

Traducción: Mayra Reyes Gómez Con el aumento de las tasas de casos de COVID-19 en la población de adultos jóvenes, los líderes locales destacaron la importancia de atenerse a las indicaciones de prevención en la junta de ayuntamiento virtual del 1 de octubre.

El condado de Larimer actualmente está en puntuación de riesgo medio en el nivel 1 de Más Seguro en Casa, el segundo nivel más bajo en la esfera de cinco niveles de la situación de COVID-19 en Colorado después del nivel Proteger a Nuestros Vecinos.

De las tres medidas principales que pueden ayudar a determinar si el condado de Larimer subirá o bajara de nivel, el número de casos es la medida primordial con la que el condado ha batallado más, de acuerdo con la información proporcionada por Tom Gonzales, director de salud pública del condado de Larimer.

“Hemos hablado con el estado acerca de hacer una transición a utilizar el nivel Proteger a Nuestros Vecinos con el buen trabajo que estamos logrando”, dijo Gonzales. “Ellos dicen que debemos tener 50 casos por cada 100,000 personas, y actualmente tenemos aproximadamente 100 casos por cada 100,000 personas (a lo largo de un periodo de 14 días)”.

El rango de edad principal en donde se está viendo aumentos de casos es en personas de 18 a 24 años, resultados similares a los patrones en todo el estado y el país, a medida que están empezando a operar de nuevo las universidades.

Según la información del tablero acerca de la COVID-19 del condado de Larimer, las personas de 15 a 24 años constituyen el 43% de los casos confirmados y probables en los últimos 30 días.

“Necesitamos usar nuestros cubrebocas y continuar practicando el distanciamiento social y lavarnos las manos, y no hacer reuniones grandes”, recomendó Gonzales. “Entiendo que estamos cansados de todas estas restricciones, pero bajar la guardia ahorita puede conducir a más enfermedades y un retroceso al nivel 2”.

La presidenta de la Universidad Estatal de Colorado (CSU por sus siglas en inglés), Joyce McConnell, comentó que es importante que todos sepan que los estudiantes de CSU de 18 a 24 años están “siendo supervisados muy bien y cuidados en la comunidad”.

“Nuestros estudiantes realmente quieren estar en el recinto universitario”, explicó McConnell. “Y porque quieren estar en el recinto universitario, están trabajando muy duro, y yo diría que el 90%, si no es que más, de los estudiantes están siguiendo cada protocolo estricto

que hemos establecido”.

Esas indicaciones incluyen requerimientos obligatorios del uso de cubrebocas dentro de las instalaciones y un verificador de síntomas diario.

Para aquellos estudiantes que no estén cumpliendo con las indicaciones, la Universidad tomará acción en contra de ellos por mala conducta estudiantil, manifestó McConnell. Ella animó a la gente a llenar el COVID Public Health Behavior Report Form, un formulario de informe sobre el COVID-19 y la conducta de la salud pública, si ven reuniones en el recinto universitario que violan las órdenes de salud.

“Es muy útil para nosotros que todos estén atentos en la calle”, afirmó McConnell. “Así que, cualquier información que tengas, por favor repórtala”.

Los sitios de transmisión han sido principalmente las reuniones hasta ahorita, declaró McConnell. El rastreo de contacto de la universidad no ha detectado la transmisión del virus en los salones de clase, lo que demuestra la diferencia que han hecho los protocolos de desinfección y de distanciamiento físico.

La Universidad ha invertido 2 millones de dólares en una campaña de la normativa social para educar a la gente acerca de estas indicaciones y también tiene planes de un programa de vacunación contra la gripe en el recinto universitario próximamente, detalló McConnell.

El 2 de octubre, el conteo acumulado de casos de COVID de CSU era uno de los más altos en el estado con 417 casos, pero la tasa de casos positivos, que era el 1.2% de las 18,700 pruebas que se habían distribuido desde el 17 de agosto, era incluso inferior a la del condado, añadió McConnell.

El tablero de casos es actualizado cada dos o tres días basándose sobre la nueva información de las pruebas cíclicas hechas. Hasta el 15 de octubre, CSU había reportado 553 casos acumulados.

La Universidad ha adoptado un enfoque agresivo en cuanto a realizar pruebas, ya que esto en conjunto con el rastreo de contactos, la cuarentena y el aislamiento son algunas de las áreas claves para ir por delante del virus, dijo Mary Pedersen, rectora y vicepresidenta ejecutiva.

Actualmente, la Universidad utiliza pruebas de aguas residuales para la microvigilancia del virus en todo el recinto universitario y se enfoca en las residencias universitarias. Fue la alta concentración de COVID-19 encontrada en las aguas residuales lo que llevó a la breve cuarentena a la que se sometieron los estudiantes en las residencias universitarias Braiden y Summit el 24 de septiembre.

Aproximadamente al 80% de esos residentes estudiantiles se les ha hecho la prueba, y el resto han sido contactados individualmente para hacerse la prueba obligatoriamente, explicó Ped-

ersen. Todos los estudiantes que dieron negativo a la prueba ya no están bajo cuarentena desde el 29 de septiembre.

La semana del 5-9 de octubre, CSU desplegó un nuevo método de microvigilancia mediante una prueba de saliva desarrollada por un equipo de profesores universitarios. Esto permitiría que CSU incremente su habilidad de realizar pruebas y alcance su meta de realizar 10 veces más pruebas, comentó Pedersen.

Mientras que la microvigilancia puede mostrar posibles puntos de la presencia de COVID-19, la prueba del hisopo nasal que detecta el material genético del virus, conocida como la Prueba COVID-19 RT-PCR, es todavía el diagnóstico necesario para confirmar un caso positivo, de acuerdo con el Dr. Chris Urbina, director médico de COVID-19 del condado.

Desde la cuarentena hasta hacerse la prueba y usar cubrebocas, Urbina enfatizó que todas estas órdenes para la salud pública tratan de detener la propagación del virus.

Aunque las personas mayores y las personas con enfermedades crónicas están en más riesgo de sufrir una complicación de COVID-19, Urbina aseguró que, a fin de cuentas, “todos somos susceptibles”.

SERIOUSLY

CSU presidential debates prove a productive enterprise

By Paul Brull @CSUCollegian

Editor’s Note: This is a satire piece from The Collegian’s opinion section. Real names and the events surrounding them may be used in fictitious/semi-fictitious ways. Those who do not read the editor’s notes are subject to being offended.

FORT COLLINS, Colo. — The resignation of Colorado State University President Joyce McConnell shocked the entire campus community this past weekend. Reportedly, McConnell submitted the resignation forms the day after a confirmed Alpha Delta Alpha Zed Alpha Phi Alpha event spread COVID-19 to over 200 members of the CSU community.

“I’m done with this,” McConnell said. “If some idiot wants to go down with this plague-ridden ship, they can be my guest.”

Administration is currently working to find her replacement; however, a few members of the CSU community are pushing for an elected president, citing an

archaic rule within the CSU constitution.

“The constitution clearly states the CSU student body and staff get to elect a new president, provided the current campus president resigns at noon exactly 20 days before a switch to daylights savings time,” said engineering senior Nick “Tech” Callity. “President McConnell resigned at noon on Oct. 12, so the good people of CSU happening to sign into RAMweb on Election Day and care enough to click two buttons deserve a voice!”

When asked about the motivation of the archaic daylight savings rule, Callity stated, “I dunno, agriculture? Does that even make any sense?”

To help motivated two-button clickers decide on their next leader, The Collegian decided to hold a presidential debate.

20 total candidates qualified. Realizing a stage with even 10 candidates to be absurd and unnecessarily chaotic, moderators randomly selected candidates from a hat in a method Bernie Sanders supporters are calling “unfair and illegitimate.”

Among the names drawn were the “Volume-is-a-Rhetorical-Strategy” party’s Val Yume and the “Buttonclickerist” party’s Captain “Aye Aye” Clipper.

Surprisingly, the “Seriously, This is a Party” party made it onstage, just barely scraping a 5% approval rating on the single-is-

sue platform: Chick-fil-A in the Lory Student Center.

Moderator Carl Fox said before the debate, “I think this is going to be productive. This will really help voters make up their minds.”

“It was crazy. After an hour, I turned off the livestream, shut off the lights and left the venue, but they were still there the next morning when I came in to pick up the free pizza I left. … Now that I think about it, I don’t think they left then either.”

CARL FOX, MODERATOR

After looking around, he found no wood to knock on and commented, “Oh, well.”

The debate started on the topic of health care before quickly derailing.

“I think RamCare needs to be free for students to opt-in,” Clipper said before being interrupted by Yume.

“False, no, incorrect, only a

forestry major or a forestry party buying forestry media propaganda would say something like that,” Yume said. “Your party would push a forestry agenda that would undermine our campus.”

In response, Clipper simply smiled and shook his head.

Later, Yume went on record saying, “Non sequiturs? No, I don’t think I’ve heard of that part of the country, but I bet it’s a lovely place!”

ASCSU judges were also a hot topic for debate. The resignation of the honorable Chadwick “Δ Δ Δ” C. Chaddington of House Chadsworth, king of campus and former third in line to house Chad of duchy Chadsworthington, rocked the status quo.

Commenting on his resignation, Chaddington stated, “I thought taking a gap year instead of letting a university shill me for money might be a good idea. See y’all when there isn’t a life-threatening pandemic and Zoom class. Peace!”

ASCSU judiciary colleagues say he will be dearly missed, citing his rulings as “bodacious.”

Despite the recent loss, Clipper wants to replace the judge as quickly as possible.

“It’s important we have a full panel of conflicted judges,” Clipper said. “Without them, only the ASCSU senate’s general inability to agree on anything will hinder outflow of yearly budgeted

funds.”

Yume replied that she is going to win the election, so she doesn’t have to do anything.

Both candidates ignored that the ASCSU judiciary is a hired position.

After several more derailed bouts, Fox gave up trying to control the candidates, allowing both to incoherently babble over one another.

“It was crazy,” said Fox. “After an hour, I turned off the livestream, shut off the lights and left the venue, but they were still there the next morning when I came in to pick up the free pizza I left. … Now that I think about it, I don’t think they left then either.”

Despite all candidates’ rhetorical genius, only one can come out on top. Polls now suggest a recent voter surge placed the “Seriously, This is a Party” party in the lead.

“When it comes to a morally flexible college audience, you can’t beat those sweet, sweet nuggets,” Party Chairperson Ben Amundson said.

When asked for comment on the upcoming election and polls, CSU Chancellor Tony Frank said, “Oh, we hired someone yesterday. You guys seriously thought we’d let you hire one of these loons?”

CSU constitutional challenges are expected to be filed.

COLLEGIAN COLUMNIST

We’re not going back to ‘normal’; it’s time to adapt

By Cat Blouch @BlouchCat

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.

As students and members of the workforce wait with bated breath for a sense of normalcy, time only moves forward. More classes move to online formats, businesses continue to employ logistics to operate with COVID-19-related obstacles and many of us have reached the point in which we’ve nearly forgotten life before the pandemic.

As we become accustomed to this new lifestyle — a world of social distancing, remote communication and increased anxiety — many of us wish for things to go back to the way they were.

Students around the country

are deferring with claims that they’ll return once their academics resemble the pre-pandemic structure.

However, we have no real idea of when that structure will come back.

“I deferred this semester because I don’t really like online classes,” Rael Watson, 21-yearold hospitality management major at Colorado State University explained.

“The harsh truth for upperclassmen such as myself is that we’ve been placed into the unfortunate situation that we very likely might be pursuing the rest of our degrees in a remote fashion.”

Like many others in his situation, he hopes that next semester will look different.

Sienna Sasselli, a 20-yearold family and consumer sciences major at CSU, explained her deferral, saying, “I don’t really see a point in returning to school if I’m not getting the education I’m paying for.”

As students make the same decision to defer while waiting for things to return to the old ways of operation, we must question exactly how long they will be waiting. The lack of clear communication from the CSU administration makes it impossible to know, but the science doesn’t appear to be on our side here.

AsapSCIENCE explains a realistic timeline for when we can expect a COVID-19 vaccine to be distributed to the public.

While there is no way to demonstrably know exactly when we might expect a vaccine being administered to the public, based on the research, a vaccine is still months away.

Without a vaccine, it’s only wishful thinking to assume that our college experience will resemble the old structure. Based on this knowledge, you can like-

ly expect next semester and the semester following to resemble the present.

You must ask yourself: if we were promised any significant changes to the current way of doing things, wouldn’t it be safe to assume that CSU would inform their students and faculty of this information?

“Optimism is healthy, but don’t let it hold you back from living life to the fullest extent you can given the current conditions.”

Instead, we are left with vague responses, a lack of a clear timeline and the avoidance of any real communication about what the future holds. There actually is a strong message to be found in the lack of any message at all. In this case, it is that we likely shouldn’t waste our time getting our hopes up.

The harsh truth for upperclassmen such as myself is that we’ve been placed into the unfortunate situation that we very likely might be pursuing the rest of our degrees in a remote fashion. This information may be unsettling to say the least, but the sooner we accept this cold truth, the sooner we can focus on how best to adapt.

Optimism is healthy, but don’t let it hold you back from living life to the fullest extent you can given the current conditions. Now is the time to invest in personal skills that will help you reach your full potential given an unfortunate turn of events.

Learning how best to manage your time, finding healthy coping mechanisms and even investing in tools that aid with remote communication are all ways in which one can begin to accept this new way of life.

Keep in mind, it is never a bad thing to try finding the positives during a time in which uncertainty is commonplace.

Wildlife of Fort Collins PHOTOS BY RYAN SCHMIDT

@BIRBS_PHOTOGRAPHY

Watching wildlife is a great way to get outside during the COVID-19 pandemic and spend time in nature. The City of Fort Collins may be a fairly urban environment, but it is still full of interesting wildlife. Areas like Spring Creek Trail and Soapstone Prairie are just some of the open spaces that Fort Collins has to offer. Throughout these areas, there is a substantial amount of land to explore and a wide variety of animals to see.

@GREGORY.G.JAMES

For Eaton, Colorado, resident Jason Geib, deciding to cut down hours on his full-time construction job in January 2019 and quit a year later was a leap of faith. He and his wife, Nikki, sold their house in Greeley, Colorado, to move with their three kids to a farm in Eaton, where they started the Willow Creek Mushrooms farm.

Since then, they have expanded their farm and renovated the old horse barn on the property into a fully functional mushroom growing building. They commute to Greeley and Fort Collins on the weekends to sell their mushrooms by the pound. From petri dish to plate, the Geibs control every aspect of production and distribution.

Now, the Geibs are expanding to be more than just a mushroom farm. They own a herd of cattle they will sell as meat, chickens that produce eggs for them, goats that produce milk and rabbits that will be bred for meat.

The Geibs grow reishi; shiitake; oyster, including summer white; and lion’s mane mushrooms and hope to expand into growing other crops and using the land they own to the fullest potential.

“Everything out here, it’s harsh weather and it’s harsh in a lot of ways,” Jason Geib said. “But the rewards are greater as well. I like the hand to table sort of approach to things.”

Nikki Geib holds a stock of reishi mushrooms Oct. 16. The mushrooms turn very brittle when they are ready to be harvested, and after having some time to dry, they will be ready to be ground up for use in tinctures as holistic medicine.

FOOTBALL >> from page 1 The cancelation occurs because the county in which Albuquerque, New Mexico, is located has seen high numbers of COVID-19 cases; a state ordinance isn’t allowing large gatherings of people nor the performance of the athletic team for now. Football teams obviously have large numbers of players, and for this reason, they will be unable to play. The Lobos also had eight players and an assistant coach with positive COVID-19 test results last week.

The news is devastating for the Rams, who were hoping to come out of the gate with a statement win. CSU was favored by 16.5 points against the Lobos, according to ESPN. CSU’s season now stands as a seven-game season rather than the originally anticipated eight pe rformances. The Mountain West’s opening weekend is Saturday with eight straight weeks of play, meaning there likely isn’t time to add another game.

There were rumors that attempts to find a new opponent were explored but nothing came to fruition.

The Rams have grown accustomed to scheduling misfortunes and adaptations in the pandemic-struck season. They have had practice and scrimmage cancelations due both to not having enough players because of COVID-19 and unsafe playing conditions caused by the smoke from the Cameron Peak wildfire.

This unfortunate setback will have an effect on the team: having a season opened away from home is less than ideal, but this setback won’t stop CSU football from building a successful program.

Junior cornerback Rashad Ajayi was vocal about the path forward, saying, “It’s frustrating, but you’ve just got to keep going. ... You just keep focus on the next opponent.”

The Rams’ new season opener will be on Oct. 29, when they head to Fresno State. The battle against the Bulldogs may very well be a fun one. Both teams finished with 4-8 overall records last season. Expect to see rusty parts on both sides of the ball because of the prolonged off-season.

CSU has overcome Fresno State their past three exhibitions.

Ram fans will hope that the winning experience against Fresno and the tough hard-nose brand of football that comes with Addazio will be enough for CSU to start off this season with a win.

Fort Collins fanatics will now have to wait until week three, Nov. 5, to head to Canvas Stadium and watch CSU play at home against the University of Wyoming.

TRASH TALK

Hedge your bets with Scott: Football picks of the week

By Scott Nies @scott_nies98

Getting 50% on an exam is not great, but getting 50% of your gambling picks for the week correct is a high like no other because it likely means you didn’t lose any money.

I went 2-2 last week, which is a stark improvement from week one’s 1-3 record. The Scott Nies gambling column — or cult, or perhaps revolution — has an overall record of three wins and five losses over two weeks.

The biggest dark spot of last week’s picks was the Green Bay Packers crumbling before my very eyes as they lost by 28 points to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, I am pretty sure that Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was a little more angry at this loss than I was after my $5 loss.

Resiliency is key as I seek the elusive 4-0 week and we dive into this week’s picks.

Sports betting has provided me with added levels of entertainment but only because I bet within my means. If you feel you need help, call the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-522-4700.

“Good teams win, but great teams cover.”

College Football North Carolina State University Wolfpack vs. University of North Carolina Tar Heels Spread: NC State +17.5 points, UNC -17.5 points Money Line: NC State +525, UNC -910 Over/Under: 60.5 points “Good teams win, but great teams cover (the spread)” is a gambling phrase as old as time, and the Wolfpack did just that last week.

They were down 17-7 to Duke University at one point but ended up winning 31-20 and covered the -4.5 point spread. So if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it — and I think the Wolfpack covers the spread again this week.

NC State is a 4-1 team, and they are listed as a 17.5 point underdog, which does not make sense to me.

Don’t get me wrong, I definitely see

the Tar Heels winning this game.

However, the Tar Heels’ margin of victory this year has been an average of 13.3 points, largely due to their 25-point victory over a struggling Syracuse team.

The Wolfpack offense is also averaging 33.6 points a game this year, and the Tar Heel defense has been giving up an average of 26 points a game this year. Even if the Tar Heels are scoring frequently, their defense will have to consistently stop a firing NC State to cover that huge point spread, which I don’t see happening.

Verdict: NC State +17.5 points.

I just don’t see this game being a blowout, and I think the stats outlined above support that.

Utah State University Aggies vs. Boise State University Broncos Spread: Utah State +16.5 points, Boise State -16.5 points Money Line: Utah State +525, Boise State -770 Over/Under: 53.5 points This should have been a pick for the University of New Mexico vs. Colorado State University game, but since that game got canceled, we will look toward another Mountain West game.

Boise is supposed to have some pretty brutal weather for their home opener; according to weather.com, the high is supposed to be 51 degrees with a 30% chance

of rain. Rusty play is to be expected on any season opener, but this weather is only going to make it worse.

Last season, Boise State averaged 34.71 points a game and Utah State averaged 29.23 points a game. While this initially looks like it lends itself to betting the over on this game, it must be noted that Utah State will be starting a transfer quarterback, Jason Shelley, after losing Jordan Love, the Aggies’ 2019 quarterback, to the Green Bay Packers after he was drafted in the first round.

Shelley only had six passing completions for 43 yards and one touchdown in 2019. He is coming into a new program and starting in some rough weather, which on paper is not super indicative of a lot of points.

Verdict: Under 53.5 points. I think there are too many moving parts here for consistent scoring throughout the game.

NFL Sunday Kansas City Chiefs vs. Denver Broncos Spread: KC -9 points, Broncos +9 points Money Line: KC -375, Broncos +310 Over/Under: 48 points Last week the Broncos beat the New England Patriots by the grace of some excellent pass rush

defense and the Broncos’ new offensive juggernaut, kicker Brandon McManus, who scored every one of the team’s 18 points. However, quarterback Drew Lock looked very shaky in his first start since week two after a shoulder injury.

For the Broncos to compete in this game, Lock needs to be on his game, but unfortunately for him, the Chiefs are no easy team to do that against. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes looks to have returned to his MVP-caliber self after throwing for two touchdowns and getting the win against the Buffalo Bills last week.

The Broncos need to show that they have offensive life in them, and Lock needs to use this game as an opportunity to do so.

Similarly, Mahomes needs to show that the Chiefs’ loss to the Las Vegas Raiders two weeks ago was a fluke as he looks to build on his performance against the Bills.

Verdict: Over 48 points. My gut tells me this game will see a lot of points as Mahomes and Lock look to duel it out in an important conference game, or perhaps McManus kicks a bunch of field goals again. Regardless, I think there will be scoring, and it will be often.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Las Vegas Raiders Spread: Tampa Bay -2.5 points, Las Vegas +2.5

Money Line: Tampa Bay -152, Las Vegas +133 Over/Under: 53.5 points In the spirit of journalistic honesty, I am a Raiders fan. In the spirit of gambling honesty, they have also cost me a lot of money over the last couple of years because they aren’t the best team (shocking, I know).

Unfortunately for the Raiders, the Bucs have one of the best defenses in the league right now.

They are holding teams to just 386 rushing yards per game, which is bad news for a Raiders team that relies heavily on running back Josh Jacobs. That being said, the Raiders played one of their best games in recent memory after putting 40 points on the then undefeated Chiefs. The Raiders are the most injury-free they have been this season, and if their offensive line can live up to its hype, they may provide a significant obstacle to Tampa Bay’s strong defense.

This game really boils down to me wanting my team to win, so much so that I will put my highly touted 3-5 record on the line for it.

Verdict: Raiders +133. The Raiders are home underdogs, and that is good enough for me to bet with the autumn wind.

MUSIC

Current, future impacts of COVID-19 on Colorado music scene

By Ty Davis @TyDavisACW

The COVID-19 outbreak in the United States has affected nearly all industries in one form or another, but live music stands out among others due to its dependency on drawing large crowds.

According to a National Independent Venue Association survey, “90% of independent venues report they will close permanently in a few months without federal funding.”

Music is such an integral part of Fort Collins culture. Few people could imagine the City without conjuring scenes such as a band playing folk while people sip drinks at a brewery or a punk band shattering eardrums while sweaty, intoxicated bodies thrash around a home garage like a convention of irate rugby players.

Lockdowns across the country brought the music industry to a halt as venues closed and shows were canceled — a huge blow to an industry that earns approximately 75% of its revenue from performances and touring.

While nationally recognized artists and companies may be able to weather the storm, the current situation has left local music scenes at risk of closures and artists with fewer outlets than before. Should a worst-case scenario come true, the effects of the music industry’s struggles could have a large economic impact that extends to other businesses in the community.

2019 was a big year for many artists in the Fort Collins community. Whether it was small tours, playing more or sometimes larger acts or releasing projects, 2019 saw a significant boost to the popularity and careers of many in the scene.

“In 2018, we were only playing one show, (or) not even, per month,” Miles Mercer of local band King Crawdad said.

“Then, in 2019, we played like 35 shows, so we were playing all the time.”

2020 was also shaping up to be a big year for many local artists before the pandemic hit.

A few artists were slated to play their biggest shows yet, and some were booked for upcoming festivals like NoCo Live, FoCoMX 12 and Bohemian Nights.

“It felt like everything was just coming together,” Riley Ann of The Catcalls said. “I was planning some time in the summer or fall of 2020 that we’d be on tour or something right now. … It felt like we had a lot of momentum, and everything just sort of ground to a halt on a worldwide level.”

For smaller and up-andcoming bands, things like doit-yourself venues, headlining larger acts and collaborating with other local musicians are good ways to foster recognition while gaining experience.

Without these resources, many are left without a way to grow their audience.

Live performances are also a good way for artists to network with people in their local scene and industry, which could lead to opportunities later on.

“If you’re trying to do this for a living, your mindset all the time is building and building and building,” Fort Collins rapper Mitchell James said.

“And the biggest part of that is networking and seeing people in person.”

“Venues will come back in some form, but it will be a little bit of time. …

It will take some time before someone feels confident in opening a venue again from scratch.”

MICHAEL SEMAN ASSISTANT PROFESSOR IN THE ARTS MANAGEMENT PROGRAM AT COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY

The inability to perform live also creates a financial dilemma for local acts who garnered a large enough following to treat music as a key source of income. Many artists who work other jobs in addition to performing stated they had not suffered significant financial losses due to the pandemic. However, artists whose incomes were entirely dependent on or largely bolstered by live performing did report losing income as a result of the pandemic.

In addition to major losses of independent venues and industry predictions, a recent

GRAPHIC ILLUSTRATION BY MALIA BERRY

statement from Dr. Anthony Fauci suggested the U.S. may not return to normal operations until late 2021.

Some businesses, such as Avogadro’s Number, the Aggie Theatre, Surfside 7 and Mishawaka, received assistance in the form of the Paycheck Protection Program, a loan as part of the CARES Act intended to help businesses with expenses like rent, utilities and labor.

As NIVA and Jon Snodgrass, co-owner of the local venue Surfside 7, noted, this assistance may not be enough to keep businesses afloat.

“We got an amount of money from that (PPP), but that was gone almost immediately,” Snodgrass said.

Fort Collins recently lost both Hodi’s Half Note and Pinball Jones Campus West, two prominent locations in the Fort Collins music scene, the latter of which was revered by local musicians for its support of smaller artists and the DIY community.

A study written by Michael Seman, an assistant professor in the arts management program at Colorado State University, estimated the Colorado music industry lost over $344 million in sales revenue by July 2020. For context, the Colorado music industry earned about $1.4 billion in sales revenue in 2018, according to the study.

An estimated 47% of that

lost revenue and 40% of lost music jobs, 3,320, came from the live music sector. While these losses may not sound impactful compared to other industries, Seman writes that these losses lead to a ripple effect across other industries, and losses outside of the music industry are not represented in the study.

“If you’re trying to do this for a living, your mindset all the time is building and building and building. And the biggest part of that is networking and seeing people in person.”

MITCHELL JAMES LOCAL RAPPER

Recently, Mishawaka and the Aggie Theatre announced they would be doing limited-capacity performances. The Bohemian Foundation, which operates both Washington’s and The Armory, and Surfside 7 said they will not be conducting live performances until they feel it would be safe to do so.

Avogadro’s Number owner Robert Osborne said that, despite having outdoor performances, it would not continue

to use the indoor spaces in the winter, citing a larger risk and lack of financial benefit to the business. Instead, Avogadro’s Number will utilize the indoor space for comedy performances in the winter, citing the shows as both safer and less expensive to put on as compared to music.

While the lockdown and pandemic have hindered artists’ ability to perform, many said they didn’t allow the situation to discourage them. Many said they have used the time to their advantage by choosing to develop their musical skills, work on projects and focus on general qualities of their artistry.

Some artists even focusedmore on their digital presence.

Before, local artists could reasonably rely on growing their audience by making their way through the local scene, the physical restrictions prompted some artists to change their utilization of social media.

Recently, the Holiday Twin Drive-In partnered with the Fort Collins Musicians Association to provide the FoCoMX Drive & Jive, a series of outdoor, socially distanced performances. The Lyric cinema has also been utilizing its outdoor space for performances, but these performances are expected to stop once temperatures drop in the winter.

Harrington’s HAAunted Hotel Review: Spooky and safe

By Kadyn Thorpe @ThorpeKadyn

Harrington Arts Alliance in Loveland, Colorado, put on its 10th-annual haunted house this year. With this being the nearest haunted house to Fort Collins, I decided to check it out.

My group and I bought our tickets online in advance and then reserved a time to go, which was a good thing to do during the COVID-19 pandemic. I personally am terrified of haunted houses. I try to go to as many as I can because I like the thrill, but I get scared any time I am getting ready to go into one.

Groups were separated by the times that they reserved.

There would only be one group in the haunted house at a time so they could make sure that no group would end up running into each other if one group was faster than the other. I liked this due to the current state of the pandemic, and I liked knowing that there’s no need to rush through the haunted house.

We were required to wear masks, and our temperature was taken at the front door before entering. When it was our turn to go, we were told some rules about how to act in the haunted house.

The actors made sure to scare you into keeping your masks on the whole time you

were in the haunted house before you even entered the actual maze. They also made sure that actors were positioned in places they could guide you through the maze without you having to touch anything.

“Tickets cost $12 for those 11 years old and under and $15 for those 12 years and up. They’re encouraging those who want to get tickets to preorder tickets ahead of time on their website.

After ordering tickets online, you will receive a confirmation email.”

While walking through the haunted house, there were a lot of twists and turns, which made it easier for people to jump out at you at any point. Many people in my group liked this aspect because it was more likely you were going to get scared. I, however, knew it was going to happen and hesitated to turn every corner. You were guided by actors throughout the hotel, and it was not difficult for guests to figure out where they were supposed to go other than in the dark, smokey hallways.

There were some good

jump scares, and I screamed quite a few times. There were people jumping out from walls that shocked me. I have to say, in my opinion, the scariest part of the whole haunted house was the long, dark and smoky hallways you needed to walk through. Walking aimlessly into the unknown is something that could terrify anyone.

These hallways were my favorite part of the maze. The idea

that someone could pop up or say something without you knowing where they were was both terrifying and exciting.

We were not allowed to touch anything, and none of the actors were allowed to touch us, so that was a good security blanket to get me through the haunted house. However, I was afraid that I was going to accidentally hit someone out of fear if they scared me enough.

All in all, Harrington’s HAAunted Hotel is a great place to get a quick scare without driving all the way to a major haunted house in Denver.

They are open on the weekends leading up to Halloween, and I would recommend going to check it out, but beware of the butcher!

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) You’ve done all that you can to be successful. Now you must surrender by letting your work speak for itself. What’s meant to be will happen. Surrender your need to micromanage.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Your peers don’t give you enough credit for being cutthroat. Embrace your sharpness by standing up for yourself and what you believe in. You’re more of a leader than you give yourself credit for.

riences. You didn’t deserve your painful experiences, but it’s your job to heal from them.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) It’s time to get real about what you want. Your indecision will be your downfall if you let it. Use this time to explore your identity and how you ended up where you are today.

DAILY HOROSCOPE By: Jorge Espinoza

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (10/22/20)

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) The insecurity you’re feeling is irrational but still valid. You need to get to the root of the problem. It’s time to be honest with yourself.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Things aren’t going the way you want because you ignored your intuition. You hoped that by listening to logic, things would just work out. You know better than that. Your intuition is your strongest trait. Embrace it.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) What are the roots of your self-esteem issues? Accept that you’re never going to be perfect. The essence of your identity is your perseverance, not your perfectionism.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) You’re stirring the pot once again. What’s up with your need to always be right? Are you actually gaining anything out of it, or are you just loud and wrong? Sometimes the truth lies somewhere between the binary of right and wrong.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) This is your time to shine. Like scorpions, you glow in the dark; however, during the day, you need to let go of trust issues and accept vulnerability. Your intuition will keep you safe.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22DEC. 21) You’re worth so much more than the resentment you carry in your heart. Be real with yourself and your painful expe-

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) You’re avoiding the situation out of fear. You’re the only one with the ability to change the situation for the better. It will be a painful decision, but it’s a much-needed call to action.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) This is a time to break down the barriers that hold you back.

Out of everybody, you have the least trouble with calling out the bullsh*t that plagues our lives.

Turn this inward, and be real with the ways you hold yourself back.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) Self-love is a commitment to yourself. It means accepting yourself at your worst, advocating for your needs and protecting your energy. Commit to yourself. Nobody else is going to love you the way you can love yourself.

Simply Cooking with Sierra: Fall Pumpkin Chili

By Aidan Chesemore

In my head, there’s an ocean on fire. The waves warm my mind to rest.

My ears to the bed, I listen to the heartbeat of closeness, of fall.

My body a dark beach, swallowed by my own thoughts, I rest for winter.

Hello fall, we are warmly welcoming you in this season, as this year has been nonstop crazy for us all. Nothing like a good bowl of homemade chili to make you feel better, am I right? To twist things up, we are making it even more fall-, spooky season-, Halloween-themed.

“Personally, leftover chili is my favorite, as it is bursting with much more taste from marinating in the spices We’re taking everyday chili and adding some pumpkin flavor into the mix. If this doesn’t scream fall, then I don’t know what does. Chili must be one of the easiest and among the healthier meals out there and can really be on the menu year-round.

This specific recipe can be catered to one’s needs as well.

It can be gluten-free, paleo or vegan. Depending on your preference, add or substitute what is needed. That is what is so great about chili — anything goes. If you have tomatoes and spices, we’re on a roll for a yummy recipe.

Make sure you have the necessary spices, as those are

what make the chili itself.

Beans are a magical fruit, and these are a necessity as well when it comes to chili. Without them, it’s like a sandwich without bread, which essentially isn’t a sandwich.

INGREDIENTS (All ingredients were purchased from King Soopers) ■ 1 pound ground turkey Jenny-O

brand $4.99 ■ 1 red bell pepper $1.50 ■ 1 white onion $2.25 ■ 1 teaspoon garlic powder $1.00 ■ 1 teaspoon onion powder $1.00 ■ 1 teaspoon chili powder $1.00 ■ 1 tablespoon cumin $1.00 ■ Dash of salt & pepper $1.00 & $1.00 ■ 1 (15.5 ounce) can black beans $0.79 ■ 1 (15.5 ounce) can pinto beans $0.79 ■ 1 (15 ounce) pumpkin puree $1.19 ■ 1 (14.5 ounce) can tomatoes $1.00 The best thing about chili, I have to say, is that you can freeze it and have copious amounts of leftovers without it going bad. Personally, leftover chili is my favorite, as it

is bursting with much more taste from marinating in the spices and sauces.

If you go the leftover route, make sure you store it in a proper freezer-safe bag or Tupperware. That way, when you go get it, there are no popped bags, spilled chili or any surprise messes when you are craving that midnight meal.

As for flavor, if you want it a bit more spicy, since this recipe is more on the mild side, add in a bit more chili powder to give it a kick.

Directions: In a large pot on medium-low heat, drizzle some olive oil and add the ground turkey while breaking the meat up so it can cook easier. Don’t forget to add in a dash of pepper.

While the meat is cooking, chop up the onion and red bell pepper in small, chunk-sized pieces and add to the pot. As the meat and veggies are cooking, add in your spices: garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cumin and salt.

Once everything is cooked through properly — it takes about 10-15 minutes depending on how high or low your heat is — add the pumpkin puree, undrained beans and tomatoes to the pot. Once all the ingredients are in, cover for 20 minutes with the heat still on medium-low. Remove from heat and you’re done. Enjoy!
