Fishing spots in Fort Collins: The perfect quarantine sport

Thursday, September 24, 2020 Vol. 130, No. 11 COLLEGIAN.COM

Fishing allows outdoor enthusiasts to adhere to health guidelines and stay active.

By Bailey Shepherd @B-Sheps

Quarantine and lockdown have posed a plethora of problems for people living every lifestyle.

Some people may be finding it challenging to engage in outdoor activities while also adhering to state and local health guidelines.

Sports have made a comeback on professional and some college levels, but for those looking for a sport that doesn’t require much effort for social distancing, fishing is a good way to indulge in the outdoors during these trying times. see FISHING on page 10 >>

Symptom checker combats COVID-19 spread

By Isabel Brown @isabelbrown02

The symptom checker, which is to be filled out before going to campus, is one more thing to think about as long as in person classes are in session and campus is open, but how this tool works has remained a bit of a mystery to students.

Symptom tracking is a way for CSU to be in the loop of where potential COVID-19 cases may arise.

When symptoms are reported, contact tracers then work with the stu-

dent or staff to determine who they may have had close contact with.

“CSU’s symptom tracker system is a model for other universities,” said Lori Lynn, co-chair of the Pandemic Preparedness Team and executive director of the CSU Health Network. “And it is part of the University’s commitment to the health of our entire University community.”

The University is dedicated to creating an environment on campus that seeks to reduce the risk of COVID-19 spread, according to the COVID Recovery website. Thus re-

quiring all faculty, staff and students to follow public health orders, including the daily symptom checker.

However, with this new task, there is now the ever-present worry of forgetting to do the symptom checker. But will wandering on campus without recording your current health status in RAMweb affect your ability to go to class?

“Professors cannot see symptom tracker information,” Lynn said. “Because this is medical information, it is protected. Results are available to the public health office.”

According to Lynn, if students

report any concerns, the public health office then works with the professors for their classes directly.

It is simply a tool used to combat and slow the spread of COVID-19.

While the University is discouraging attending large social gatherings while campus is open, according to the CSU COVID-19 Recovery website, its first priority is the safety of everyone on campus.

Reporting any symptoms will not get students into trouble, Lynn said.

Practice makes perfect — even in art — and local painter Teddi Parker demonstrates the value of trading the grandeur of large projects for incremental improvement.

Parker grew up in an artistic household in Coon Rapids, Minnesota, a town roughly an hour north of Minneapolis by her reckoning.

Parker came from an artistic family; her father worked with chalk, her mother with textiles and her brother and sister became graphic and tattoo designers, respectively.

Legal liability: Universities and students during COVID-19

“I don’t think there’s much doubt that having students return to campus in the middle of a pandemic is negligent … given what our numbers are in Colorado.”

IGOR RAYKIN ATTORNEY AT LAW

Holding a public university liable in an instance such as this would require proof of negligence, Raykin explained. Proving legal wrongdoing by a private university is much easier to do because no higher standard has to be met.

GRAPHIC ILLUSTRATION BY MALIA BERRY THE COLLEGIAN

In order to prove that CSU was responsible for the student’s illness, Raykin would have to demonstrate that CSU behaved in a deliberate manner to get students ill, a standard he would not be able to meet, Raykin said.

“In other words, (I could not prove) that (the University was) essentially intentionally trying to get students sick,” Raykin said. “There’s just no way I would ever be able to prove that. It simply would be impossible.”

being the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act. “The CGIA was enacted to protect Colorado’s government and taxpayers from bearing an excessive monetary burden for damages suffered by personal injury claimants in tort cases,” according to lawyer Anthony Viorst.

According to Raykin, the act prohibits lawsuits against government entities with very limited exceptions. Even if there were an applicable exception for this situation, the standard would be much higher than negligence, he explained.

As of Sept. 22, there are over 2,000 cumulative cases of COVID-19 in Larimer County and 285 at Colorado State University.

With the rise of cases, students may be interested in their legal options in the event they get sick due to in-person learning.

In the first two weeks of in-person classes, there were 52 cases recorded, and in the two weeks following there were 71, according to the COVID-19 recovery website.

President Joyce McConnell sent an email to students on Aug. 20 suggesting that they are at fault for the spread of COVID-19 on campus.

“To those of you who are not compliant with state, county and University health protocols: you may be the reason someone loses their life,” McConnell wrote. “It is that serious.”

Wastewater testing, contact tracing and the daily symptom checker have been put in place by the University in an attempt to mitigate the spread. Despite these efforts, the case numbers at CSU continue to rise.

“It really, truly is a collaborative

However, because CSU is a public university, a lawsuit of this nature would be more difficult to pursue.

Four elements need to be met in order to prove negligence, according to Cornell Law School: ■ The defendant owed a legal duty to the plaintiff.

■ The defendant’s failure to meet that duty.

■ The plaintiff suffered an injury.

■ Evidence that the defendant’s failure caused said injury to plaintiff.

In this particular legal situation, the defendant would be the University and the plaintiff would be the student. The injury the plaintiff suffered would be contracting COVID-19 through attending classes in person.

“I don’t think there’s much doubt that having students return to campus in the middle of a pandemic is negligent … given what our numbers are in Colorado,” Raykin said.

“Certainly, you could make a plausible argument that having a bunch of students come back to campus and sit in a classroom is negligent.”

Raykin explained that there is no plausible avenue in which students could hold CSU liable for getting COVID-19, one of the reasons

effort across campus which bodes well with our ability to finish out the semester in the environment that we’re in,” said Marc Barker, cochair of the Pandemic Preparedness Team.

Attorney Igor Raykin explained it is highly unlikely that students would be able to hold the University legally liable if they get seriously sick from attending classes on campus.

ASCSU ratifies new members of the Student Fee Review Board

COVID-19 >> from page 1

By Lily Wolfmeier @LilyWolfmeier

“Providing this information to CSU public health officials is an important part of the big picture in keeping our community healthy and staying open,” Lynn said.

So, what happens when students report symptoms to the symptom tracker?

Taylor McCoy, a contact tracer for CSU, described their job as, “identifying close contacts of those who are known positives for COVID-19 or presumed positives based on symptoms.”

“Contact tracing is as effective as the community makes it.”

TAYLOR MCCOY CONTACT TRACER FOR CSU

The close contacts are asked about the nature of the interaction with the individual in question, which then helps calculate the risk of the potential exposure, according to McCoy. “Contact tracing is as effective as the community makes it,” McCoy said. “The CSU community has been doing a great job.”

According to the CSU

COVID-19 Recovery website, it is possible to receive a call from a contact tracer even without having symptoms to report. It’s still important to answer these calls, as the caller may have important information about any close contact exposure the student may have had.

Close contact exposure is being “within 6 feet of an infected person for at least 15 minutes starting from 48 hours before illness onset until the time the patient is iso-

lated,” according to the CSU COVID-19 Recovery website.

“The symptom tracker is simply a tool to help contact tracers get in contact with individuals who develop symptoms over the semester,” McCoy said.

As of Sept. 22, there were 285 cumulative cases at CSU, with 2,363 cases in Larimer County as of Sept. 23.

Isabel Brown can be reached at news@collegian.com.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Associated Students of Colorado State University ratified a new slate of members for the Student Fee Review Board.

Members include Alex Benitez Banos, Kai Calder, Jasper Sloss, Emily Baller, Charlotte Pardo, Peyton Dailey, Nate Akers, Hannah Knox, Michael Townsend, Kyle Kumjian and Evan Welch.

“Every student should have the opportunity to have every service,” Senator Emely Cruz Arrazola said.

SFRB has the ability to vote on the allocation of student fees. The senators were concerned with the slate of new members for the board, especially their ability to serve the student body.

“We need to be as impartial and diligent as we can,” said Senator Kyle Hill. “Our constituents put us on the senate to do the right jobs.”

One of the major concerns the senators voiced was the recognition of the experience of marginalized students and the environment of SFRB. “(You can’t say) ‘I vote for the people that I want to vote for,” Senator Jaquikeyah Fields said.

“You are voting for everyone. You are representing the people that you want to represent. ... Our job is to make sure that the students who want to be represented are

represented.”

Senator Miguel Ojeda said that the position of allocating funds held by the SFRB has “never been exclusive.” Any members sworn into the SFRB are responsible for allocating funds for everyone.

“Our fees benefit all the students,” candidate Baller said.

Another major concern the senate had was the checks and balances system within ASCSU. The senate and SFRB have the ability to check each other. Both the senate and the SFRB members want to make sure that they are creating the best environment for the students, according to multiple senators.

Baller explained that the senators and members of SFRB all have passion in common.

Senator Gemma Buhaenko explained that through checks and balances given by SFRB, criticism can be provided to the senate.

Regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, the senators and members of the SFRB were concerned with the ability of students to pay. Many candidates, including Baller, mentioned that the bar for approving fee increases has been raised.

The goal of the ratification process is considered helpful for both the senate and the SFRB, since it is an opportunity for the two branches of government to interact with each other and, at times, call each other out, according to senator Fields.

Multiple COVID-19 cases confirmed within University Greek life

Update: Cameron Peak wildfire reaches 27% containment, progress made

By Sam Moccia @SamuelMoccia

New cases of COVID-19 have been confirmed at Colorado State University this week, including some associated with CSU Greek life.

Two new cases in off-campus Greek life housing were confirmed Sept. 23, according to Public Safety and Risk Communications Manager Dell Rae Ciaravola in an email to The Collegian.

These new cases include one positive case in the Sigma Pi fraternity house and one positive case in the Kappa Delta sorority house, both of which are the only known cases in their respective houses.

Cases found include: ■ Chi Omega: 3 total cases ■ Phi Delta: 2 total cases ■ Gamma Phi Beta: 4 total cases “Our contact tracers have confirmed that these cases appear to primarily be coming from limited contacts within small groups,” Ciaravola said. “However, because of the nature of Greek chapter houses, the virus may spread more easily among members ... because the students who live there share many spaces.”

Ciaravola also added that Greek houses each had to offer written mitigation COVID-19 management plans before the semester began, and that CSU was working with houses to update their plans based on this semester’s experiences with COVID-19.

According to Ciaravola, there are no University students in the hospital. All students who live in several of these Greek houses were tested through mobile tests that were brought to them. The members who reside in the houses with multiple cases are currently quarantined for two weeks.

As of Sept. 23, CSU has conducted nearly 16,000 main campus tests since mid-August, according to the testing summary.

Chi Omega declined to comment out of respect for their members’ privacy.

The Collegian is awaiting response from both Gamma Phi Beta and Katie O’Donnell, Public Information Officer for the Larimer County Department of Health and Environment.

Update: As of Sept. 23 at 11 p.m., firefighters are making progress, according to a press release.

Two additional Hotshot crews have arrived on the scene working with firefighters who are using hand tools, heavy equipment and aerial resources, the release said.

“Despite multiple challenges, firefighters are making progress,” the release said. “Additional containment was added to the perimeter on the southeast corner near Buckhorn.”

The containment is at 27% with the fire encompasing 163.7 square miles.

Original article: The Cameron Peak wildfire, located southwest of Red Feather Lakes, Colorado, encompassed 163.5 square miles, according to the Incident Information System as of Tuesday night.

Firefighters are currently working day and night shifts on the fire, with the most activity occurring west of the Manhattan Road today accord-

ing to an update from the IIS. According to the update, large air tankers dropped retardant on the fire yesterday to slow the advancement, and dozers as well as heavy equipment continued to build a fire line along the flanks of the head near Forest Service Road 517. The IIS website showed that there are currently 839 personnel working on the fire.

The fire’s perimeter is 17% contained, but elevated fire conditions this week persist as hot, dry temperatures return. The fire conditions are also compounded by the chance of isolated thunderstorms that may bring gusty outflow winds to the area, causing further spread across the terrain.

“The elevated fire weather conditions this week continue to present hazardous conditions because of potential outflow winds in the afternoon,” the IIS update said. “Although some rain is predicted, the chances of the rain over the fire area remain low.”

However, cooler temperatures and higher humidity are expected soon and will help mitigate the conditions.

Temperatures in the 50s to 60s

are expected to come this week, as well as minimum humidity of 2025%. Warmer temperatures and increased winds Thursday and Friday will bring potential for high instability with the fire. According to the IIS’s 72 hour weather report, increased winds are expected to be sustained into the weekend, but cooler temperatures and high humidity will come Saturday due to a Pacific cold front.

Red Feather Lakes and Crystal Lakes are still under mandatory evacuation orders, and voluntary evacuation orders have expanded to include Glacier View filings, the Lady Moon area and the Magic Sky Ranch area, according to an update from the IIS. Old Fall River Road is still closed and Rocky Mountain National Park is experiencing closures in the northern part of the park, but Trail Ridge Road has now reopened, according to the IIS. Shambhala Mountain Center, a Buddhist spiritual center in Red Feather Lakes, entered mandatory evacuation on Sunday due to the increase in winds, according to an update on their website.

Primera audiencia pública del presupuesto del 2021 para Fort Collins

By Samantha Ye @samxye4

Traducción: Mayra Reyes Gómez Los residentes de Fort Collins tuvieron su primera oportunidad para comentar acerca del Presupuesto del 2021 recomendado por el administrador de la Ciudad ante el Concejo Municipal el pasado 15 de septiembre.

La mayoría de los comentaristas del público plantearon preocupaciones resaltadas por La Alianza BIPOC (siglas que en inglés representan “afroamericanos, indígenas y gente de color”) relacionadas con la policía y el financiamiento de la sostenibilidad social.

El administrador de la Ciudad Darin Atteberry y otros empleados del ayuntamiento abordaron estas preguntas iniciales que se resumen a continuación. ¿Qué sucede si los ingresos de la Ciudad caen por debajo del presupuesto proyectado?

El ciudadano Adam Eggleston encontró el presupuesto de la Ciudad aún demasiado grande en comparación con los ingresos proyectados.

El presupuesto de la Ciudad total para el 2021 está fijado en 696 millones de dólares, un 2,8% menos en comparación al presupuesto enmendado para el 2020, mientras que los ingresos totales se estima que sean 646 millones, un 3,7% por debajo de los ingresos del presupuesto del 2020. Los ingresos del 2021 están basados en una “previsión cautelosamente optimista para el próximo año al mismo tiempo que se está consciente de las preocupaciones de los economistas nacionales sobre la economía nacional”, de acuerdo con la página 8 del reporte resumido.

“Está realmente cerca, así que si no nos recuperamos como lo estamos anticipando y lo ralentizamos todo, podríamos vernos dañados financieramente en el 2021, entonces quisiera advertir acerca del nivel actual del presupuesto”, dijo Eggleston.

Atteberry comentó que el personal que trabaja para la Ciudad estará preparando planes de contingencia en octubre para promulgarlos en caso de que los ingresos del 2021 estén debajo de las proyecciones. ¿Por qué el Departamento de Sostenibilidad Social está recibiendo un recorte del 42,6% en el presupuesto?

Durante la primavera la Ciudad recibió una aportación de fondos de emergencia del Bloque de Desarrollo Comunitario (CDBG por sus siglas en inglés) federal, lo cual impulsó el presupuesto de Sostenibilidad Social del 2020 a más del doble de lo que era en el 2019.

Con los fondos del CDBG, el presupuesto del departamento para el 2021 bajaría un 42,6% en comparación al 2020. Sin embargo, la Ciudad misma aportó 2,9 millones

de dólares para Sostenibilidad Social este año, explicó Travis Storin, el director financiero interino, lo que significa que, si se comparan los fondos de este año a los fondos del próximo año de la Ciudad solamente, el presupuesto del 2021 propuesto vería un modesto aumento del 10 por ciento y alcanzaría 3,2 millones de dólares.

Los comentaristas del público enfatizaron que el Departamento de Sostenibilidad Social cubre programas para las viviendas asequibles, las personas sin hogar y la equidad, entre otros programas, y estos no deben ser acortados durante la pandemia.

La alcaldesa interina Kristin Stephens comentó que después de hablar con representantes federales, aún existe la posibilidad de obtener más fondos de recuperación el próximo año.

“Ciertamente abogaremos para conseguir que esos dólares entren a nuestra comunidad”, dijo Stephens. “Y creo que debemos tener un plan para esos dólares y asegurarnos de que estamos tomando en cuenta la equidad y los problemas de igualdad racial … si conseguimos que esos dólares entren a nuestra comunidad”. ¿Por qué está recibiendo un aumento el departamento de policía precisamente ahora?

Uno de los aspectos financieros más destacados del presupuesto es el aumento de sueldo para la policía de Fort Collins, cuando la mayoría del personal de la Ciudad no tendrá un ajuste en su salario.

El aumento proviene de un convenio colectivo con la Orden Fraternal de la Policía, el sindicato de la policía. Este es el tercer año de aumentos de sueldo por contrata.

Los números exactos se determinarán a principios del 2021, pero varios ciudadanos señalaron que no es una buena imagen para los Servicios Policiales de Fort Collins (FCPS por sus siglas en inglés) que acepten este aumento dada la agitación social nacional sobre la actividad policial y los problemas de empleo a los que hacen frente otros miembros del personal de la Ciudad y la comunidad.

“Estoy agradecido por los comentarios que se hicieron sobre que ninguno de los otros empleados de la Ciudad verá aumentos, pero esa es la única unidad de negociación en pie dentro de la Ciudad y siento que nos hemos comprometido con eso (el contrato), y deberíamos cumplir con eso”, dijo Atteberry. “Es por eso que está dentro de mi presupuesto recomendado”.

Atteberry comentó que el contrato enfrentará renegociaciones en el 2021.

SEX COLUMN

It’s time to reduce the stigma around OnlyFans

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.

Editor’s Note: The content of this article could be triggering for some audiences. Please use discretion.

When living in the age of the internet in which porn websites are more popular than Netflix, it’s easy to ignore what happens behind the scenes of sexually explicit content.

Platforms such as OnlyFans encourage performers to empower themselves, as they are in charge of the content and are free from the risk of coercion into scenes

they never gave consent to.

Many don’t know what goes on behind the camera. During the COVID-19 era, in which more and more of our lives take place in a virtual format, pornography is more commonplace than ever before.

“Hot Girls Wanted,” a documentary co-produced by Rashida Jones, discusses the porn industry and the unfortunate reality of a business that largely preys on naive young women. John Anthony, an actor who had worked in the industry for five years at the time of the production, explained the predatory nature of the business.

“There is an influx of girls trying to do porn,” Anthony said.

“And a lot of them know it’s a trap, but the money is there in their face, right now, cash. (The) shelf life of a girl really depends on how she markets herself. Worst case scenario? One to three months. Best case scenario, if she doesn’t catch onto the game, a year tops.”

This continuous revolving door of young actresses lends itself well to other forms of exploitation, including lack of proper compensation as well as situations in which women are coerced into performing sexual activities they were not prepared for, nor did they consent to.

The “Hot Girls Wanted” doc-

umentary depicts actress Rachel Bernard explaining a situation in which she showed up to a “blowjob scene.”

“I was like, ‘For sure,’” Bernard said. “$300 for a blowjob scene. That’s nothing. I go there and he’s like, ‘Oh yeah, it’s a forced blowjob.’ And I’m like, ‘What?’ I was scared; I was terrified. I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know if I could tell him no. Or the fact that we already recorded 15 minutes of it, if I could just f*cking leave. Like … then what? Then I understand that that’s how rape victims feel.”

Mia Khalifa, an internet personality known for speaking out about her time in the porn industry, explained in an interview that of the 11 pornographic films she starred in, she only made $12,000.

She explains that there is a great misconception that she has been graciously compensated for her videos.

“That’s not how it works,” she said. “You get paid for the day and that’s it. You don’t get any royalties; you don’t get anything afterward.”

With the flaws of the industry coming to the surface, many talents have turned to alternative mediums. OnlyFans, a content subscription service in which content creators can earn money from the users who subscribe to their

content, is one such popular platform.

The benefits of websites like OnlyFans, and other platforms that allow actors to control the content they put out, mitigate some of the harmful aspects of the porn industry.

“That’s not how it works.

You get paid for the day, and that’s it. You don’t get any royalties; you don’t get anything afterward.”

MIA KHALIFA INTERNET PERSONALITY

There is a reduction of financial exploitation, as the companies that produce the content in traditional porn are cut out of the equation. Content creators make their own price and thus set their own value for the work they do.

Additionally, it aids in reducing the stigma around sex work; average people have access to a medium in which they can create sexual content. This has led to a large influx of people engaging

with the website. In early April, OnlyFans reported a 75% increase in “model sign-ups.”

It’s worth noting that this was when quarantine started, providing an income source for thousands of displaced workers due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

While it may be easy to condemn individuals who decide to engage in camgirl platforms such as OnlyFans, try to make sure you aren’t being hypocritical. If you consume porn, for example, can you really say your issue is with the fact that women are being sexually explicit? Or rather, does the issue stem from your own discomfort around women taking their sexuality into their own hands and deciding for themselves the value in the work they are doing?

While consuming pornographic material of any kind in excess can have negative repercussions, porn is here to stay. The demand for sexually explicit material is now ingrained into our sexualized culture, and the supply is only increasing with time.

For that reason, it’s crucial that sex workers are provided with platforms that do not exploit them and that leave aspects of the production in their hands.

COLLEGIAN COLUMNIST

Due to COVID-19, we should take a collective gap year

By Joslyn Orji @lazy_svndae_

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.

One of the most shocking news developments this year was that schools and universities across the country announced that they would be reopening for the fall semester. Hopefully I am not alone when I say that I was surprised to hear such news, considering the rise in the number of COVID-19 cases across the nation.

The quarantine summer, our extended spring break, happened because of the urgency of COVID-19 and how easily it spreads. Although I heard enough of the discourse between state officials and school administrators about this decision, I still found it ironic that thousands of people would be congregating on college campuses for

the fall semester.

COVID-19 already impacted the spring semester so much that many graduations were either canceled or virtual. Why was it suddenly deemed safe enough to move back?

By the time August rolled around, it became pretty clear that students were the subjects of the petri dish experiment of a college campus during a pandemic. Based on the way this semester is already playing out, it is in everyone’s best interest to take a collective year off.

“The haste with which we returned to CSU has contributed to one of the most disorganized and ill-constructed semesters yet.”

First of all, learning can be really difficult in an online format. It seems to me that we’re paying an insane amount of money just for our screens to lag every time we log onto a Zoom class. I am not too excited about spending all of this money on

technology and fees just to say, “Can y’all hear me alright?” every time I unmute myself.

Online lectures are 99% teaching yourself the content that you should be learning from professors and 1% constructing an overly excitable discussion post in order to score attendance points. What makes it bearable is the concerning fact that this is out of anyone’s hands and that everyone involved is trying their best. We cannot be frustrated with the professors, instructors and teaching assistants because they are just as frustrated as we are.

We ought to be frustrated with the lack of progress that has been made toward controlling the pandemic in the United States as well as the lack of responsibility from our leaders. We could have been in a much better situation otherwise.

Taking a year off would provide us with more time to be organized as a community and as individuals. Sure, life goes on and the pandemic could not have kept us inside the house any longer, but it’s better to be safe than sorry.

Many of us were itching to get back to campus — under-

standably so. But the haste with which we returned to CSU has contributed to one of the most disorganized and ill-constructed semesters yet.

I commend those who have gotten the hang of it and are thriving; this is by no means an attempt to be discouraging.

However, for those who are struggling to find a routine and get acclimated to such a new system, more time would have been appreciated.

While CSU is doing a good job keeping up with COVID-19 testing and tracing possible positive cases, it is a little too soon to completely applaud their efforts.

Part of the reason that we are going completely online after fall break is because of the likelihood of an outbreak on campus after students return.

Unfortunately, an outbreak is not too unbelievable. CU Boulder moved all of its classes to a completely online format temporarily.

Health concerns aside, the college experience is lacking in the engagement department.

The full experience for freshmen and pretty much every other student is non-existent this semester. How will confronting the

realities of COVID-19 drastically alter how a traditional college experience is delivered?

Each student with a roommate has to cross their fingers and hope that the other is following through with safe social distancing practices — as if getting along with new roommates wasn’t hard enough. Not to mention the fact that CSU is expecting thousands of young, excitable adults to follow public health guidance that limits interaction and socializing — something that is definitely running contrary to the logistics and rites of a traditional college experience.

College this year is not it, and unfortunately, there is little way around it. A collective pause to get our priorities straight as a nation would be greatly needed if we were to ever find an effective solution to combat COVID-19 without losing any more lives.

The important thing to remember is that there are so many resources available to anyone who is feeling overwhelmed, confused or stressed during these awkward first couple of weeks of school.

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Help protect the community, campus and our newsroom

Four weeks ago, under various health precautions and new regulations, we all returned to campus to continue our education, and The Collegian came back to our Lory Student Center newsroom in order to provide content for CSU’s community.

Partying isn’t the college experience you should be worried about missing out on. You should be gravely concerned with the wellbeing of our community and with your opportunity to learn, expand your worldview and practice moving throughout the world as a well-rounded, ethical human being.

We, as the editorial board of The Collegian, are simply asking you to do your part in keeping not only our organization open but the many other resources and groups on campus as well. Do not just think about us, but think about the many campus organizations that have gone online, the thousands of students not receiving the in-person classes they are paying for and the health and wellbeing of our community.

Sincerely, Lauryn Bolz, editor-in-chief Abby Vander Graaff, content managing editor Matt Tackett, digital & design managing editor The editorial board can be reached at editor@collegian.com.

FISHING >> from page 1 Fort Collins offers a wide variety of locations for anglers of all skill levels to get their fix. Below is a shortlist of some spots that offer diverse catching opportunities and aren’t too far from home in the city.

Sheldon Lake Located in City Park and just about a mile from the CSU campus, Sheldon Lake offers a close-tohome fishing experience that novice and experienced anglers alike can enjoy.

There is an extensive boardwalk along the northern side of the lake as well as a dock on the west side that make great spots to cast a line from. There are also plenty of pulloffs from the sidewalk around the lake that offer seamless access to the banks where it is just as easy to cast.

The lake boasts a diverse population of fish, including largemouth and smallmouth bass, trout, and catfish. Beginner anglers may find success using live worms or nightcrawlers, which are trout favorites, while jigs and crank lures may reap rewards for those who opt for a cast and reel approach.

Kingfisher Point Natural Area Just a few hundred feet north of the intersection of Prospect and Timberline roads, Kingfisher Point, an often-overlooked fishing spot, is one of 15 natural areas in and around Fort Collins that permits fishing.

The unassuming pull-off for this area is on the west side of Timberline Road. There are two ponds located on the north and south side of the main walking trail. Anglers should spend most of their time casting into the northwest pond, as the majority of the southwest pond’s fish population was killed off in 2013, possibly due to water nutrient issues that arose from agriculture.

You can expect a wide variety of species in the northwest pond including sunfish, largemouth bass,

yellow perch, shiners and carp. Using grub baits like worms as well as spinners that shine well in the opaque water might improve your luck.

Riverbend Ponds Natural Area On the east side of Timberline Road and just a few paces from Kingfisher Point, the fishing options at Riverbend Ponds Natural Area are almost limitless.

There is no shortage of spots to throw a line out there, with there being seven ponds for anglers to choose from. The northern ponds near the parking lot are easily accessible from the trail and offer great diversity of species, with gizzard shad, bass, crappies, catfish and carp all present.

For those who opt for a lengthier walk along the trail, the lower ponds offer similar varieties of fish as the upper four. Anglers beware, however, due to the heavy vegetation of the area: limbs and branches often fall in the ponds and pose some snag threats along with the dense underwater vegetation. Cast with care.

Horsetooth Reservoir You can’t discuss the outdoors around Fort Collins without mentioning Horsetooth.

If you have access to a boat or a way to get out on the open water, this spot offers the best opportunity to reel in some big game with a wellcast crank lure or a trusty worm.

You have a great chance of reeling in some impressive walleye and trout with the use of the right bait.

For those who look to cast from the shore, the beaches and coves on the west side of the reservoir are havens for smaller panfish and bass that are easily accessible if you’re willing to search long enough for a spot away from the cliff jumpers and paddle boarders.

Feel free to utilize this article as a guide to start your angling escapades as the summer winds down, and happy fishing!

How to maintain activity and socially distance

By Tyler Meguire @TMeguire

Even though gyms are now open and enforcing COVID-19 safety guidelines, not everyone feels safe enough to go to a poorly-ventilated area where people are sweating and potentially yelling. Finding fun and engaging activities to maintain a healthy lifestyle while social distancing can be a challenge for those accustomed to the gym lifestyle. Here are a couple of ways to maintain activity while social distancing.

Going for a walk or a hike Colorado is home to breathtaking views and quality air — when the state isn’t on fire like it is now — and makes it the perfect place for a nice walk. This allows for a healthy activity while being outside and away from people. Even if two individuals walk past each other, being outside is consequently safer than being inside, especially if both are wearing a mask.

Horsetooth Reservoir is the heart of Fort Collins and

a great area for activity. It has great hikes, camping areas and places for quality fishing.

Horsetooth is not the only place for a great hike in Fort Collins.

Campus Recreation Not a part of a recreational or Intramural Sport at Colorado State? No problem. Grab some friends and check out the various areas around campus to get some activity. CSU’s campus offers a great walk due to its views and environment.

CSU has a lot of space around campus for opportunities for friends and individuals to perform all sorts of different activities. Spikeball is a common activity with two or more people. There’s always somewhere to find a nice and relaxing place on campus to stretch, do yoga and play some basketball. There is almost an infinite amount of things to do around campus to maintain activity.

The campus is big enough for them to be done while socially distanced.

Activities to do while staying home Even with all of the protocols, it still may be nerve-wracking to maintain activity outside

of your residence. No need to leave home with these common workout routines at home.

A pushup, situp and squat routine can be a perfect way to stay in shape while not even leaving your room. There are plenty of variations of this workout that you can perform.

The best thing is, you can do it at your pace without anyone there to see you. There are also plenty of other workouts you can do that exercise different muscle groups.

Usually, it works best with free weights but if you do not have those, use different things around the house to simulate.

Hold a gallon of milk while you do your squats and it will be similar to free weight.

What am I doing?

I am not an expert in this field, but I do find my ways to get some activity without even leaving my apartment.

My roommates are far better at maintaining their physical health, and they do everything in their rooms.

Both do pushups, situps and squat routines. They do four sets of 20 for pushups, four

sets of 30 for situps and then 75 squats with 35-pound dumbbells. One roommate adds a plank series that makes him do a regular plank and side planks — on both sides — for a minute each.

The other thing we do is pass a 25-pound medicine ball around while we are just sitting on the couch hanging out. This is a great way to be active while simultaneously doing nothing.

Sometimes we do competitions and whoever drops it first is out.

Although, it is not great when we drop it because we live in an apartment.

No matter what type of activity you are into, there are several ways to maintain activity while social distancing by staying outside or in the comfort of your own home.

PARKER >> from page 1 Though Parker is known for her paintings now, her relationship to the medium was sporadic.

While she attended special classes for painting in middle school, she switched mediums throughout her life, noting she went through a long colored pencil phase in high school.

It wouldn’t be until she attended Colorado State University, and as she studied abroad in Argentina, that she took painting seriously. Using any resources at her disposal, including cardboard, she frequently painted the cityscape from her host family’s balcony in addition to images from photos friends took.

Parker said life got in the way after returning to America, and she took a break from painting. In that time, she graduated from CSU with a degree in Spanish and married her husband, Steven, in 2011.

Inspiration would strike again in 2012 after discovering the artist Carol Marine, a prominent artist in the “a painting a day” movement.

“A painting a day” is a modern art movement created by Duane Keiser in 2004, who created it after recognizing the internet would change pop culture’s consumption and sale of art, according to The Huffington Post. Seeing that small, frequently produced works were more profitable and internet commerce was becoming more popular, Keiser began selling and then auctioning his work on eBay and journaling his experiences. More artists picked up on this style of painting and began taking up the challenge as well.

Like so many things in life, Parker says the movement spoke to her for a number of reasons: namely, that large works often exhausted her in addition to taking a lot of time and resources and that the idea of completing projects frequently intrinsically resonated with her.

Additionally, she used an analogy that inspired her: “It was explained somehow that you should be treating your craft as if it was playing an instrument, and the only way to get better at playing an instrument is to do it every day,” Parker said.

Though she says she made immediate growth, she described the first two years as being full of ups and downs, with peaks of inspiration where things went well and lows of tiredness and frustration at not seeing the result she strived for.

Despite this, she continued with the challenges of overcoming discouragement and caring for children with unsynchronized sleep schedules.

Parker said that, as she progressed and became more technically proficient, learning what she wanted to do and how to do it became a faster learning process, and her skills grew as an artist.

“It took a good long while before myself came out and I wasn’t just copying anymore, and that’s

hard to wait for, but you need those years of grinding, working and building up that skill before you can tune out and your craft takes over,” Parker said.

Parker said that, in the beginning, she relied on emulating her style after Marine, as well as expressionist artist Vincent van Gogh and the portrait artist and proto-impressionist John Singer Sargent. Now she describes the process as relieving, and she enters a trance-like flow when she begins painting.

Parker cited her blog and social media as being a contributing factor in keeping her committed to painting daily. She also began selling and auctioning her works in the beginning, which began to pick up steam as time went on.

“Her work just makes you feel good. … She’s just a natural for this time.”

DIANE FINDLEY MEMBER OF TRIMBLE COURT ARTISANS

So many artists are encouraged to start an Instagram account early to simultaneously receive feedback, amass a following and build a portfolio, so the thought of Parker being apathetic to the platform seems almost strange, especially when her account, @ teddiparkerart, now boasts over 200,000 followers. Parker originally joined as a result of a program her church group was doing and even needed help setting it up from her niece.

It seems almost serendipitous that an account dedicated to posting art in a traditional format, with no narrative or meta content to incentivize frequent returns and engagement, would do well in today’s social media landscape. It seems successful due to its adherence to some rules but its stark defiance of others. It’s important to remember that the “a painting a day” movement was, in part, born out of a desire to appeal to an internet age that rewards consistency.

To grow their audience, accounts are recommended to post frequently to keep audiences engaged and to spread awareness.

A movement that emphasizes frequent creation satisfies this requirement. Parker also paints in a 6x6 inch format which naturally fits with Instagram’s posting format.

But to place too much emphasis on this is to miss the intrinsic appeals of Parker’s work.

“Her work just makes you feel good,” said Diane Findley, a member of Trimble Court Artisans.

“She’s just a natural for this time.”

Trimble is an “art and craft co-op gallery featuring unique work from over 50 local Colorado artists,” according to the website.

Parker is also a member of this coop.

Parker said her paintings don’t tackle heavy subject matter:

they focus on the everyday, and she sets out to depict bright and joyous subject matter.

“The thing that I get most commented is that (the paintings) brought them joy — it lightened the mood of their day,” Parker said.

With so much negativity circulating our consciousness and surroundings, Parker’s paintings can feel like a breath of fresh air.

In contrast to many other artists on Instagram, Parker’s art isn’t charged with anything, and it simply exudes aesthetic pleasantness, which is in-line with her philosophy that art is meant to bring beauty.

Examining Parker’s art is to witness something rare in our culture, even among modern online art cultures. You get to watch an unabashed and unfiltered journey of growth and progression. In our culture, we often emphasize large undertakings that stress the full embodiment of the artist.

Seeing this, we develop a skewed understanding of what it takes to make art or become a better artist, and many become discouraged when trying to meet this journey head-on. Too often, artists think they need to develop overnight and with something that will be above and beyond expectations and the modern culture.

Parker’s journey represents a truth that often gets swept aside in the pressure: art and your development as an artist is not linear, it’s not a race, there’s no deadline to become a good artist and there is no real finish line. The artist’s journey will have highs and lows, and there will come frustration and breakthroughs.

But to see her process raw gives Parker’s Instagram an almost naked appeal because, despite even the best behind-the-scenes content, we still get a summary of the work and often are not privy to the minutia of art’s progress, let alone the personal development of the artist themself.

DAILY HOROSCOPE By: Jorge Espinoza TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (09/24/2020) ARIES SUN/RISING - You are being tested. Think before you act. Libra season will encourage you to find better coping mechanisms and make time to relax. Give yourself the gift of time or continue to suffer the consequences of your impulsive actions.

LIBRA SUN/RISING - It is your time to shine. While Libra season won’t be easy, put your best foot forward by dropping the “fake it ‘til you make it” attitude. That might fly next Libra season, but for now, take accountability for your actions. When conflict arises, tell the whole truth, admit when you’re wrong and embrace imperfection. Only then will others be able to see the real you for better or worse.

SCORPIO SUN/RISING - Your inner demons will continue to haunt you when you don’t find peace in the fact that they can’t hurt you. Your resilience is why you’re here, so while you may feel burdened by the past, find peace in the present and be hopeful for the future.

TAURUS SUN/RISING - Does your work bring you joy? Do you feel supported by those around you? If you don’t enjoy your surroundings, then it’s time to be the one who spices things up.

Take initiative and be the change you want to see.

- Libra season is here to help

GEMINI SUN/RISING - Your best friend Libra will encourage you to develop a better relationship with yourself. Let Libra season help you brainstorm all the ways you can make the best out of your situation. Then use your new found clarity to manifest a better future.

CAPRICORN SUN/RISING

CANCER SUN/RISING - The way you deal with conflict will define your character. Libra season will encourage you to take a step back and pause before you act. You need this in order to properly understand why you feel the way you do. From there, you can either accept fault or tell others how they hurt you.

LEO SUN/RISING - If you don’t like your environment, fix it. You have the answers and you’re the only one who can encourage others to do better. Use your leadership skills to create something glorious. Everyone else will follow suit.

VIRGO SUN/RISING - Insecurity is lying to your face. You’re all that you need in order to feel good about yourself. Don’t let the opinions of others and what is socially acceptable pit you

SAGITTARIUS SUN/RISING you refine your sense of self.

Embrace the growth you’ve made and be critical of the ways you hold yourself back. Be intentional about how you choose to express yourself, and you’ll be able to reach a larger audience.

- Things are not going your way for a reason. You are being forced to embrace flexibility.

Your goals are achievable, but you’re in need of a new perspective. Let Libra season help you rethink the ways you can use your gifts in order to make the most out of what you want.

AQUARIUS SUN/RISING You’re great at reminding others of their worth. When was the last time you reminded yourself of your worth? You’ve overcome more than most. Take a look at what you’ve been able to achieve, and trust in your ability to make the best out of nothing.

You’re supposed to be here.

PISCES SUN/RISING - You’re more alone than you’d like to admit. Others feel safe when confiding in you; however, you don’t allow yourself the same vulnerability. Libra season is a time to honor your story and confide in the people close to you. You deserve closeness. Quit pushing people away out of fear.

FOOD & DINING

Latinx Heritage Month recipes: Calabacitas de horno

By Sierra Grimm @CSURam5

Festivities are in full swing as El Centro kicked off their first all-virtual Latinx Heritage Month. And for any resident foodies, both on- and off-campus, Sept. 21’s Cultural Recipes event presented the perfect recipe: calabacitas de horno or cheese-stuffed zucchini.

The event was hosted via Instagram Live on El Centro’s page, @elcentro1976, and the recipe is courtesy of Shannon Archibeque-Engle, assistant vice president for strategic initiatives and assessment at Colorado State University.

According to the CSU website, Archibeque-Engle has led diversity and equity workshops and is committed to creating inclusive learning environments.

Archibeque-Engle is not only a

staff member at Colorado State University, but she is also a CSU alumnus with a master’s degree in toxicology and a doctorate in education.

During the event, Archibeque-Engle talked about the importance of cooking through generations and its relation to her heritage; she attributed her passion for cooking to preparing meals for her family.

With her mastery in cooking skills from passed-down recipes, Archibeque-Engle prepares that home-cooked meal that we all crave sooner or later.

Calabacitas de horno may not be a part of your past, present or current food habits; however, this recipe may allow for a new opportunity to arise.

These eight easy steps for this functional Latinx meal can be completed right in the comfort of your home. Forget the processed food and countless

nights of eating ramen — it’s time to expand your palate. Put your cooking skills to the test, and put together a recipe that involves multiple ingredients rather than just boiled water and noodles.

You don’t need too much space to create this masterpiece, but you do need drive, motivation and the desire to cook and try something new. In the end, you can build character and your palate, too. This recipe is stuffed with delicious ingredients that will keep you coming back for seconds.

One may ask about leftovers, and you bet your bottom dollar you can freeze this and, when you’re craving it, pop it in the microwave for a meal or perhaps that midnight snack while studying for an upcoming test.

According to an Instagram message from El Centro, Archibeque-Engle uses the following

ingredients for this recipe: ■ 2 medium onions, sliced thin ■ 4 tablespoons butter ■ Approximately 4 cups grated

zucchini squash (if frozen, thaw and drain. If fresh, cook in a small amount of water and drain.)

■ 2 cups of green chiles (peeled, chopped and roasted) ■ 1 teaspoon salt ■ 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper ■ 2 eggs, well-beaten ■ 1 12 oz can evaporated milk, undiluted ■ 1 cup grated cheese First, you’ll want to sauté the onions in the butter in a

frying pan. Then, mix the welldrained zucchini, sautéed onions, green chiles, salt and pepper together in a bowl. Next, stir together the eggs and milk and add them to the zucchini mix in the bowl. Put the mixture into a greased 9” x 13” pan and bake it at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.

Finally, once it’s cooked through, sprinkle the cheese on top for the last 10 minutes of baking.

After the cheese has melted, remove it from oven and let it sit for a couple of minutes to cool off before serving.

This recipe may be a first of many new foods that you prepare in your dorm, but at least you’re gaining skills when feeding not just your body but also your mind with new ingredients.

Enjoy!

Editor’s Note: This recipe was edited for clarity.
