Walking around the on-campus football stadium, it is easy to see why everyone surrounding the Colorado State football pro-

gram is eager for the 2017 season to start. After spending the better part of the century playing on the far side of town, the Rams will make their highly anticipated return to the CSU campus with the inaugural game against Oregon State on Aug. 26.

In anticipation of the return to campus, fans are encouraged to attend an open house event on Aug. 5, but members of the local media were invited to tour the new “digs” on Tuesday.

Guided by Athletic Director Joe Parker and Head Football Coach Mike Bobo, more than 20 members of the local media were able to tour the Rams’ new facil-

ities and get a feel for what game day will look like in Fort Collins this fall.

Starting outside of the stadium, Parker, who was covered from head to toe with TV microphones, welcomed the participants and explained exactly what this project has meant to him and what it will do for the community going forward.

“For 49 years we played at Hughes Stadium,” Parker said.

“So for the better part of six decades we lost the opportunity to share the university with people that are attending football games. So the project is accomplishing what we hoped it would.

It is really serving as a primary engagement asset for the university.”

Parker explained that while the stadium is obviously a tremendous asset to the football program, over 100 non-football related events have already been booked in the new stadium. Ten such events have already occurred, including the Fort Collins Boys and Girls Club’s annual summer bash event.

“We are seeing it pull in people to campus and that is exactly what we wanted it to do,” Parker said.

Located on the southwest side of campus, the stadium in-

cludes a 9,100-square foot custom weight room, 11,000-square foot sports medicine center and allows the program to run its day to day operations from inside the stadium with custom offices and team meeting rooms.

“In many ways, we probably built the best stadium in America,” Parker said.

When the hoards of media members piled their way through the tunnel and out onto the field, it was almost a surreal feeling. As someone that has been on campus for the last four years as a student, and grew up watching the legendary Sonny see STADIUM on page 7 >>

CITY

“Back Door” for SitThe buzz on the current state of bees Lie Ban in Fort Collins moving forward

By Sarah Ehrlich @SarahEhrlich96

By Colin Raunig @colinraunig

An ordinance, seen as the equivalent to the “Sit-Lie Ban,” was voted in favor of by Fort Collins City Council Tuesday night.

The ordinance would amend city code regulating trespass and obstruction of a highway or passageway. Council voted 3-2 in favor of its first reading.

The amendments include an obstruction ordinance, which would add prohibition of blocking passages to public fixtures such as pedestrian buttons, water fountains and benches, and a trespass ordinance, which would make it illegal to lie or occupy objects on objects not designed for those purposes, such as flowerbeds or planters.

The detail of the obstruction ordinance, which received the most attention during Tuesday evening’s meeting, was the proposed prohibition of sitting, kneeling or lying within twenty feet of any business entrance during opening hours.

Ten citizens commented on the proposed amendment before the attending members of the City Council deliberated. All of the citizens who spoke were against the amendment.

Gwen Thompson, of the Fort Collins Homeless Coalition, was the first to speak, and was quick to note that the amendment amounted to a back door route to the Sit-Lie Ban. In addition, Thompson said she was troubled by the twenty foot buffer zone, which covered most of the downtown area.

Deborah James, who identifies as homeless herself, echoed some of Thompson’s sentiments, and said the city wants the homeless population to leave the city, but the population does not have the money or the resources to relocate.

“Where are we supposed to go? We have nowhere to go,” James said.

After the citizen comments, the City Council deliberated.

Councilmember Kristin Stephens asked how the number of 20 feet was decided upon. It was then brought up that the 20 foot ordinance has been in effect for quite some time as 20 feet is required to provide maneuverability for groups and people with disabilities.

Councilmember Bob Over-

beck made a motion to decrease the ordinance from 20 to 15 feet, which was seconded. Overbeck also asked for a shaded map of the all the areas affected throughout downtown by the 20

foot ban, which is proposed to be followed up on.

Fort Collins Deputy Chief Kevin Cronin did not feel comfortable with the proposed decrease. Cronin said only a 15 foot buffer would cause safety concerns for the police. Safety concerns included accessibility to businesses and loitering in front of businesses serving alcohol.

Stephens rejected the idea that the proposed amendment was “profiling” and called for compromise. She said the need to sit and lie down needed to be balanced with maneuverability.

Other members of council fell on the other side of the issue.

Councilmember Ross Cunniff, who is in favor of the amendment, said he is in support of mental health concerns and is an advocate for continued partnerships with homeless coalitions.

However, Cuniff voted in favor of the ordinance.

“If we wait until everything is perfect to vote yes on anything, we won’t get anywhere,” Cuniff said.

Councilmembers Ray Martinez and Gerry Horak, along with Cuniff, voted in favor of the amendment. Stephens and Overbeck voted against it.

The second reading for this amendment is not yet scheduled.

Honeybee and pollinator population decline, with increased death and disappearance, around the world have left scientists, beekeepers and farmers stumped, while also threatening the future of the global food supply.

Dr. Dhruba Naug, a professor of Biology, Behavioral and Evolutionary Ecology at Colorado State University said honeybees serve as important pollinators for some top Colorado crops such as sunflower, alfalfa and apples.

“Although not specific to Colorado, and these crops, studies have shown up to a 10 percent drop in production in the absence of pollinators,” Naug said. “It’s not only a decline in quantity, but the quality of self-pollinated fruits are known to be inferior, in terms of (normal size).”

Plants that make up 35 percent of the global crop production with a value of $577 billion a year rely on various pollinators, according to the New York Times. Without pollinators, the agricultural sector would lose millions of jobs worldwide.

Why pollinators are dying There is no one specific reason as to why honeybees and other pollinators are dying, but

rather several possible reasons.

Disease, pesticides, habitat loss and climate change are all possible reasons. The rising global temperatures cause problems, because bees prefer more cool and mild temperatures.

Naug said his research, along with that of others, has led him to believe habitat loss and poor nutrition are at the center of the decline.

“It has been shown again and again that well nourished bees are better able to deal with the negative effects of disease, pesticides, etc.,” Naug said.

“With Colorado having one of the highest population growth rate in the country, bees will also likely be experiencing some of the highest rates of habitat loss.”

Dave Primer, of the Northern Colorado Beekeepers Association (NCBA), said it is difficult for beekeepers who experience loss in their hives to pinpoint exactly what happened.

Primer has not experienced hive loss in his 32 years of beekeeping. He heard of beginner beekeepers who see their bees slowly disappear just after one year.

“You have to look at a lot of different things, like what type of environment bees are in,” Primer said. “(Bees leaving) is something that has been around a long time and something we don’t know a lot about. It is still

a mystery.”

What can be done to help Although the mystery remains as to why pollinators are disappearing, there are things that can be done to help the bees and other pollinators regain health.

Cameo Holbrook, a beekeeper at Copoco’s Honey of Fort Collins, currently has 40 hives she cares for, while also providing hive inspections for private homes. Holbrook said people should understand that the food supply depends on the health of pollinators.

“Bees are a beneficial part to food and home, they are super organisms,” Holbrook said. “It is easy for people to incorporate healthy ecosystems for bees by planting trees and flowers, over growing a lawn.”

Primer said it should not be assumed that bees are infallible and for humans to be aware of the weed killers sprayed around nectar or pollinator friendly plants.

Naug hinted that CSU is formulating a policy that will involve taking a number of steps for making the campus more friendly toward pollinators.

“Conservation of the Earth in general will cause a good turn around for all pollinators,” Holbrook said.

West Nile virus found in Fort Collins mosquitoes

By Haley Candelario @H_Candelario98

Mosquitos in Fort Collins were confirmed to be carrying West Nile virus for the first time this season.

According to a press release from the City of Fort Collins, Culex mosquitos in the northeast and southeast sections of Fort Collins tested positive for West Nile virus, which is transmitted to humans by mosquitos.

The vector index – the amount of infected mosquitos in an area – is currently 0.203

in the northeast section of Fort Collins and 0.004 in the southeast section, according to the press release.

The City currently has no plans to spray pesticides to prevent the spread of West Nile due to its high standards for spraying. The City considers adult mosquito spraying when the vector index is 0.75 or higher in any of the four zones of the City, and when there are two confirmed human cases of West Nile virus during one week.

The City may consider spraying pesticides earlier at the reccomendation of

the Health and Environment Department’s director, according to the press release.

When the vector index in Fort Collins reached 0.93 in August 2016, the City sprayed pesticides to prevent the threat of West Nile virus from growing.

In 2016, there were 19 confirmed human cases of West Nile virus in Larimer County.

So far this season, there have been no human cases of West Nile wirus in Fort Collins or in Larimer County. Only one human case of the disease in Colorado this year has been

confirmed, according to the Coloradoan.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 70 to 80 percent of people who contract West Nile virus do not experience any symptoms and less than 1 percent of people develop a serious illness from West Nile virus. At least 10 percent of cases concerning serious illness from West Nile virus result in fatalities. There is currently no cure for the disease.

Student receives fellowship to continue research in microbes

By Piper Davis @piperdavis

Enrique Doster answered a long-awaited phone call from his mentor, Dr. Paul Morley, only to be greeted with anger.

“Emotions were mixed when I got the news,” Doster said. “Morley decided to show his prankster side by calling me in an angry tone to discuss details about my progress, only to burst out laughing.”

Doster learned from his mentor that he had been awarded the Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation Bridge to the Doctorate fellowship from the National Science Foundation.

“The rocky declaration of my fellowship just made the realization that I was officially a Bridge to the Doctorate fellow that much more amazing,” Doster said.

Doster is in his fourth year of the D.V.M./Ph.D. dual degree program within the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at Colorado State University. He is one of 15 students enrolled in the program. According to the program’s website, the combined degree program, which takes seven to eight years to complete, allows students to earn a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and a Doctor of Philosophy to create future veterinarians experienced in both application and research.

Doster’s passion for animals emanates from his childhood experiences of accompanying his step-father, a large-animal veterinarian, to work on both sides of the Texas-Mexico border. Doster and his stepfather would start the day by administering vaccines to goats and pigs and end the day by delivering calves at night.

At a young age, Doster began to notice the differences in animal welfare on either side of the border. These observations sparked Doster’s passion for animal welfare that later lead to a future career in veterinary medicine.

“My passion for animal welfare has since expanded to consider the wide spectrum of factors which influence livestock production,” Doster

said. “From the underlying social, political and economic components to the groundlevel management decisions affecting production measures, disease patterns, farm business longevity and the impact of farming on the surrounding environment.”

According to the fellowship’s website, the LSAMP program provides funding to colleges and universities to support the “graduation of well-prepared, highly-qualified students from underrepresented groups who pursue graduate studies or careers in STEM.” According to Doster, the fellowship provides a living

stipend and tuition benefits for a portion of his program, which will allow him to continue his research and studies without worrying about paying for the program, rent or living expenses. Doster will also be connected with other scientists from underrepresented ethnicities.

Doster’s current studies focus mainly on studying microbial communities and how they interact with humans, animals and the environment.

Additionally, Doster studies antimicrobial resistance and its

relationship with antibiotics.

“My future goal is to work with a national or international agency and foster collaborative research between interdisciplinary groups of scientists and livestock producers to develop sustainable food production practices and improve food security,” Doster said. “As a veterinary epidemiologist, I want to help facilitate the translation of the latest advances in research to everyday management practices that achieve holistic

improvements in animal welfare, production measures, and food safety.”

Doster speaks highly of his experiences in the DVM/Ph.D program at CSU, saying that the unique program has prepared him for his future goals.

“I’m lucky that the skills I am gaining at CSU will allow me to fit along the wide spectrum of people working toward a similar goal, and I’m open minded about what my specific role will be in the future,” Doster said.

“Sit lie ban” criminalizes homelessness

By Allec Brust @allecbrust

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.

On Tuesday, Fort Collins City council discussed ordinance 5761 which adds new restrictions to the “sit lie ban” that disables homeless citizens from sitting in certain public areas. In a 3-2 vote, the new restrictions passed. The new ban will prohibit occupation of a highway or passageway, and banned occupation of certain fixtures, such as flowerpots. Ultimately, the homeless are reserved to laying on benches.

I am incredibly disappointed in our city council.

When reading the ordinance, it is frustrating that the restrictions are spoken of as if every citizen is benefiting (or not benefiting) from this newly enforced ordinance. The ban is not universally detrimental-- It is helping businesses overcome a minor inconvenience at the expense of the rights of

homeless citizens. The new ban continues to criminalize homelessness without posing a solution to the homeless epidemic.

It is not fresh news that the sit lie ban breaches civil liberties. In May, the ordinance struck up conversation amongst civil liberty groups in Fort Collins and beyond. The restrictions were criticized by the American Civil Liberties Union, who called the ordinance “outrageous,” according to the Coloradoan.

The ordinance is without a doubt outrageous. What I am more shocked about is the failure from council to accept the ordinance without discussing future plans to aid homeless rather than stripping them of refuge.

The abhorrent disregard for human dignity in order to make access to small business more convenient goes to show that the homeless are often thought of as less than. In a friendly, low crime city like Fort Collins we should be able to discuss plans to help our homeless population, especially when we impede these ridiculous restrictions.

Not only is this a breach of human rights, but also poses a problem of homeless crime becoming more relevant. With the homeless population growing and places to sit becoming

slimmer, the homeless will start to be charged for being homeless. We do not need to spend taxes on housing the homeless, rather we should look towards tangible solu-

tions that do not criminalize homelessness.

Lack of compassion is a sad reality that prevents the needy from being recognized as real humans. Yes, the homeless may sometimes be uncomfortable to encounter.

The inconveniance a store owner will experience from a homeless person occupying a nearby passageway is nothing compared to the struggle of being homeless. The “sit lie ban” disregards the rights of the homeless, and will inflict harm on the homeless population.

I hope that in the next few weeks our lawmakers will be posed with issues pushing them to move forward in a compassionate and positive way. Ultimately, our homeless population is growing. We must not sweep an issue under the rug by regulating homelessness, rather go directly to the humans being effected: the homeless.

The homeless do not get to go to sleep in a bed at night. Now, they wont even be able to sleep.

The Affordable Care Act must be built upon, not repealed.

By Spencer Reed @CSUCollegian

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

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) sought to cover the 50 million Americans who lacked healthcare coverage at the time it was signed into law in 2010 under the Obama administration. The American Health Care Act (AHCA), a new health care plan recently brought forth by the GOP, aims rather at reducing the taxes associated with the ACA. Overall, this makes sense; delivering healthcare to the most amount of people at the lowest expense. However, many people who obtained health coverage through the ACA would have lost their healthcare benefits if the AHCA had passed.

Therefore, the GOP should be

fighting to improve upon what the ACA accomplished instead of fighting to repeal it.

Senators from Colorado recently voted 4 to 3 saying no to the Obamacare repeal. In Greeley, representative Ken Buck voted yes, in favor of the new GOP plan. Senators like Buck are making the wrong decision by supporting a new GOP healthcare bill.

Since the beginning of the ACA in 2010, the percent of uninsured Americans has plunged from over 18 percent to just over 10 percent in 2016. According to Rachel Garfield, associate director for the Kaiser Family Foundation’s Programs on Medicaid and the Uninsured, “there has never been a decline this large and over such a short period of time.”

Much of this improvement can be linked to the Affordable Care Act. The ACA allows children to remain under their parent’s

healthcare plan until age 26, which has made a notable impact on the number of uninsured citizens. Not only that, but the ACA allows subsidies to be given to low-income Americans, so citizens can then purchase insurance on their own terms.

Furthermore, this health reform law gives individuals a greater chance at receiving Medicaid in situations where they would not otherwise have access. Overall, the ACA has improved the conditions for low-income citizens to receive healthcare, which is helpful considering that most uninsured Americans receive a pretty low-income.

The ACA has allowed millions of Americans to attain health insurance, however there are some setbacks attached to the health reform law.

Many people are paying higher premiums. Insurance companies are covering a broad-

er amount of benefits, which has caused premiums to rise for those who had health insurance in the first place. New taxes were also imposed to help pay for the ACA, which included specific taxes on those with higher incomes.

While millions of Americans are receiving healthcare benefits because of the ACA, others are paying a cost.

The American Health Care Act sought to remove some of these costs by blocking ACA subsidies, and by removing federal support for Medicaid entirely by 2020. Specifically, the GOP’s new plan would have blocked $800 billion of Medicaid funding over the next decade. By doing so, the health coverage given to millions of Americans through the ACA would have been in jeopardy.

Risking healthcare for the millions American’s who obtained coverage through the ACA was a large reason why the

AHCA recently got shot down

by Congress. Another reason being that the AHCA was rather rushed, which made many in Congress question the legitimacy of the GOP’s plan.

Ed Perlmutter, Congress Representative from Lakewood, was one Colorado Rep. that voted down the AHCA. “It’s bad for the 24 million Americans who would lose coverage,” he tweeted, “It’s bad on rural America.

Not sure who this bill is good for…”

Obamacare has made it easier for people in rural areas like Fort Collins obtain health insurance. Replacing the ACA would hinder Healthcare across the U.S., and here at home.

The Affordable Care Act has improved upon what was once a healthcare crisis in America.

The Trump Administration and the GOP should act to improve upon the ACA, not replace it.

New stadium sets precedent for CSU football

Lubick lead players like Bradlee Van Pelt, David Anderson and Joel Dreesen to victory for years, all I could think to myself was, “is this the same football program?”

I was well aware that the stadium would be unlike anything I had ever experienced. Still, it surpassed all of my expectations.

From a scoreboard that is the size of a basketball court to the state of the art technology throughout the facility and synthetic playing surface that still feels natural and tough, everything about this stadium is first class and unique to CSU. As I gazed over the freshly painted green seats and New Belgium Porch, which is still being constructed, I thought about sellout crowds chanting that they are “proud to be”. I thought about the possibility of a Rocky Mountain Showdown being played in Fort Collins every other year. Most of all, I thought about what this means for college football in the state of Colorado.

For years, the University of Colorado has been the only football program in the Centennial State to be consistently relevant on a national scale. While CSU and Air Force have had their moments in the sun, primarily at the beginning of the century, the rave has always been about the

Buffaloes and Folsom Field.

Do not get me wrong. Only a fool would argue that Folsom is not one of the top venues in all of college football. Located right next to the Flatirons, when that place is packed and rockin’, there is no denying the unique atmosphere that Boulder can provide.

Finally though, loyal supporters of the green and gold have something to feel proud about as well.

As long as CSU is on the outside looking in of a Power Five conference, the Rams will always lack the funding of their rival to to the south. However, having a shiny new facility to brag about, recently redesigned uniforms and a postseason streak of four years certainly helps close the gap.

The harsh reality is that being a member of the Mountain West is an uphill battle for local relevancy, let alone getting attention on a national scale. However, when it comes to programs outside of the Power Five that are on the college football map, Colorado State University certainly belongs in that conversation right now.

This stadium has raised the standard in every way imaginable. No longer will coasting through the Mountain West be an acceptable outcome for this

program. With a new home, comes the pressure to succeed.

“We want to be in a place that has high expectations,” Bobo said. “We don’t want to be in a place that has minimal pressure or minimal expectations.

It’s a big responsibility moving into this stadium and this facility. We’ve got to earn the right to come out here and play and represent Colorado State.”

Gallup among college football’s best wide receivers

By Justin Michael @JustinTMichael

Colorado State senior wide receiver Michael Gallup was named to the 2017 Biletnikoff Award watch list Tuesday, an award that annually recognizes the most outstanding receiver in college football. Gallup is the first Ram to make the watch list since Rashard Higgins in 2015.

Higgins was a finalist for the prestigious award in 2014.

Presented by the Tallahassee Quarterback Club (TQC), Gallup is one of 46 total players on the watch list

and one of only two Mountain West receivers recognized.

Along with Gallup, Boise State’s Cedrick Wilson also was named to the Biletnikoff Award watch list. Devin Ross and Shea Fields of the University of Colorado made the watch list as well.

Despite playing at the Division 1 level for the first time in 2016, Gallup was one of the most productive wide receivers in the conference last season. Gallup finished the year with 76 catches, 1,272 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns. Of the major receiving statistical categories, Gallup ranked eighth nationally

in total touchdowns and 14th in receiving yardage.

Over the course of the 2016 season, Gallup was able to find the endzone in 11 of the Rams 13 total games, scoring receiving touchdowns in each of CSU’s final eight games. During those final eight contests, Gallup averaged 128 yards per-game, before ultimately concluding his junior season with a three touchdown performance in the 2016 Idaho Potato Bowl.

Along with being named to the 2017 Biletnikoff Award watch list, Gallup was recently named preseason Fourth-Team

Despite temporarily losing his starting position to Colin Hill last fall and sharing reps at times with Georgia graduate transfer Faton Bauta, Stevens managed to rank fifth nationally in passer efficiency rating (171.3) in 2016.

through the end of the regular season, Stevens was one of the most successful passers in the nation though.

After getting his starting gig back when Colin Hill went down with an ACL injury against Wyoming (Oct. 1), Stevens went on to lead to the Rams to victory in four of the team’s final six games. During that stretch, Stevens completed 98-of-137 pass attempts (71.5 percent) for 1,414 yards and 14 touchdowns, while also adding two rushing TDs. He only threw one interception during that span, and did turn the ball over once in CSU’s final two regular season games.

After capping off his season with a five touchdown performance in the 2016 Idaho Potato Bowl, Stevens earned a league honor for the second consecutive season, as he was recognized with Honorable Mention All-Mountain West.

Stevens graduated in May with his bachelor’s degree in business administration. The fifth-year senior has earned Academic All-MW honors in each of the last two seasons.

The Golden Arm Award committee will announce the Top 15 finalists for the 2017 Golden Arm Award in September. The 30th Anniversary presentation of the Golden Arm Award will be held on Fri., Dec. 8 at the Embassy Suites Baltimore Inner Harbor & Grand.

Stevens is not the only Ram to receive national recognition recently. Senior wide receiver Michael Gallup was named to the 2017 Biletnikoff Award Watch List Tuesday and offensive lineman Zack Golditch was named to the Wuerffel Trophy Watch List.

After being nominated for the 2017 Allstate AFCA Good Works Team last week, Colorado State offensive lineman Zack Golditch was once again recognized for his efforts outside of football. On Tuesday afternoon, Golditch was named to the 2017 Wuerffel Trophy watch list.

ZACK GOLDITCH ■ Career Stats: 26 starts over last

2 seasons

■ Position:

Offensive line ■ Hometown: Aurora, Colorado Named after former University of Florida quarterback Danny Wuerffel, the award recognizes student-athletes for their community service work. Known as “College Football’s Premier Award for Community Service,” the award is presented to the FBS player who best combines exemplary community service with athletic and academic achievement.

Golditch is known for his involvement with the Aurora UCHealth facility and Children’s Hospital Colorado. He has also spent time with children at Respite Care, a non-profit organization in Larimer County that provides short term, quality care for children with developmental disabilities. Golditch also regularly volunteers at the Fort Collins Boys and Girls Club.

This summer, Golditch was one of 13 CSU athletes to participate in CSU’s Green and Global Innitiative in Jamaica. This trip allowed student-athletes to expe-

rience cultural immersion, social action and community-based learning over the course of 10 days.

This is not Golditch’s first time being recognized for his community service efforts.

Golditch was among those on the Wuerffel Trophy watch list in 2016, making him one of eight members to appear on the watch list in consecutive years. He was also CSU’s representative for the 2016 Famous Idaho Potato Bowl Humanitarian Award, which recognizes players for their excellence in community service.

Before coming to CSU, Golditch was among those wounded in the 2012 Aurora theater shooting. As a freshman, he was given the National Football Foundation Inspiration Award for the courage and resilience demonstrated in his return to football.

Golditch’s play on the field is nearly as remarkable as his involvement off it. Playing four different positions on the offensive line, Golditch has helped power a strong rushing attack while keeping pressure off of Rams’ quarterbacks. Last season, the Rams allowed just 1.08 sacks per contest, the 13th-best mark in the FBS. Thanks in large part to their steady offensive line, the CSU offense also ranked 19th nationally in passing efficiency, 31st in rushing offense and 38th in scoring offense.

Voting for the Wuerffel Trophy is performed by a National Selection Committee that includes college football television and print media, industry notables, former head coaches and prior Wuerffel Trophy recipients.

FORT COLLINS LIFE

Fort Collins Fringe Festival to showcase obscure local art

By Julia Trowbridge @cbapin_jules

Local, national, and international art makes its debut as performers of all types entertain the city of Fort Collins.

The Fort Collins Fringe Festival features various types of performance art from dancing and acting to live music from Thursday, July 27 to Sunday, July 30.

Fringe festival focuses on showcasing local and more obscure art and working with performances unconstrained from the status quo, according to the Fort Collins Fringe Festival website. The performances are unpredictable and off-the-wall, giving the city of Fort Collins an

unparalleled experience in the world of non-judgmental art.

The fringe festival takes place from Thursday, July 27 to Sunday, July 30, and features over 90 performances at five different venues.

Starting on the 27th at 7 p.m. at Avogadro’s Number, each performance will give a 60-second preview, giving audience members an idea of what to check out over the next few days. From Friday to Sunday, locations like the Art Lab, Center for Fine Art Photography, the Museum of Discovery Dome Theatre, the Music District and Wolverine Letterpress & Publick House will showcase the full performances of the artists.

On Saturday, July 29, a fam-

ily friendly interactive theater event will take place in Old Town Square from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., allowing kids to participate in the world of performance. On Sunday, July 30, an Awards Ceremony and after party will take place at 7 p.m. at the Paddler’s Pub. Jessica MacMaster, one of the producers of the Fort Collins Fringe Festival, has been working the festival for five years, and has enjoyed each year she has gotten to witness the fringe performances.

“My favorite part is watching all of the artists’ hard work start to pour out over the city and social media,” MacMaster said. “I love seeing what everyone comes up with for their

marketing and watching each performance group support not only their own pieces, but the festival as a whole.”

MacMaster recommends checking out the opening and closing parties of the festival because not only is it fun and exciting, but it gives an insight on why the artists do what they do.

The city of Fort Collins will get to voice their opinions on the art by voting for an Audience Choice Award. A ticket will need to be purchased for each individual show, ranging from $1 to $10, and festival button passes are $5 and are available at the door or online.

This event is produced by Heather Ostberg Johnson, Jessica MacMaster, Willis Produc-

tions with support from Dome Club at the Fort Collins Museum of Discovery, Center for Fine Art Photography, La-De-Da School for the Performing Arts, The Music District and Windsor Community Playhouse for the entertainment of the community of Fort Collins.

“People should view local art and find some pieces at the Fringe Festival to go see because it’s a way to get a pulse on the heartbeat of the city and beyond,” MacMaster said. “It’s how artists use their voices and tell their stories. It’s something different—something that you won’t see anywhere else. “ Julia Trowbridge can be reached at entertainment@ collegian.com.

MUSIC

Students participate in premier marching music event

By Julia Trowbridge @chapin_jules

Editor’s Note: The Rocky Mountain Collegian’s Photography Director Tony Villalobos May is an employee of Ascend Performing Arts and contributed the photos to this story.

DRUM CORPS INTERNATIONAL ■ The annual Drum Corps Interna-

tional Tour, including the Drums Along the Rockies performance, is made up of more than 100 events throughout North America ■ Participants in Drum Corps International come from more than 15 countries ■ Each summer, about 400,000 fans attend live drum corps events On July 15, drum corps groups gathered and performed their marching routines as a competition, not only based on musical talent but also on the entertainment of the performance. The first four weeks of the summer are spent training, and then the groups perform across the country.

This year, multiple Colorado State students are performing with multiple drum corps groups. These talented students with a passion of the performance of marching are participating in the groups the ‘Troopers’ from Casper, the ‘Blue Knights’ from Denver, the

‘Cascades’, from Seattle and the ‘Battalion’ from Salt Lake City.

Each drum corps group provides a different experience in the performing arts of marching, but all provide a summer family for these CSU students.

Malia Odekirk Performing in the front ensemble, Malia Odekirk is a junior at CSU, and she has been a part of CSU’s marching band for two years. She has played the piano since she was four and played percussion throughout middle school and high school.

She is a music major with a double concentration in percussion performance and music education.

“My current marching experience has been incredible and undoubtedly life changing,” Odekirk said. “The relationships we build and the high level of improvement in musicality and technical ability is unparalleled, and I am very thankful to be here.”

Odekirk said her experience with the drum corp and Colorado State University has been life changing.

“I am very appreciative for the incredible opportunities I have had thus far at the school,” Odekirk said. “I am currently marching a season with the Troopers, and the corps is an incredible group that is deeply rooted in history, camaraderie and dedication. Beyond this corps, DCI itself is an extraordinary activity that brings people from all walks of life together to work harder than they ever have, test the limits of the human physical and mental state and cultivate remarkable rela-

tionships that have the potential to last a lifetime.”

Richie Dow Richie Dow is a second-year student majoring in apparel and merchandising. He has been performing snare for his past two years at Colorado State, and he will be a section leader in the fall. Dow is also a veteran of the Blue Knights Percussion Ensemble and is on tour with the Seattle Cascades Drum and Bugle Corps. His experience with the Seattle Cascades has been worthwhile yet difficult, as the art of performance goes, he said.

“My experience has been satisfying,” Dow said. “There are lots of ups and downs during the season, but when I look at how far I’ve come it really makes it all worth it.”

Sydney Brown Sydney Brown is an incoming Colorado State student who will be majoring in music. She’s played the trumpet for eight years, and this is her third year with the Blue Knights Drums and Bugle Corps.

“My experience with drum corps has been very positive,” Brown said. “It is a great feeling to work so hard for an end product. Performing in front of crowds all summer never gets old, and it makes me excited to hear and see the reactions from the audiences. Drum corps have taught me how to work hard, and they have shaped me into the person I am today.”

Anthony Lederhos Anthony Lederhos is a athletic band support specialist at Colorado State University and is coaching The Battalion Drum and Bugle Corps for this year’s

Drums Along the Rockies competition. Lederhos studied percussion performance and graduated from Colorado State in 2015. This is his first time teaching a group at the drum corps competition. Lederhos has been involved in the marching arts for 10 years.

“I was a member of the Blue Knights Drum and Bugle Corps in 2015, and it was an experience I will forever cherish,” Lederhos said. “It taught me how to truly commit to one’s craft and that you will only get the most out of

an experience if you are willing to do your absolute best work.”

Lederhos said he has appreciated the people he has worked with over the years with the Blue Knights.

Reccently playing a memorable show at Sports Authority Field in Denver, Lederhos said, “I do not know of many other activities that hosts such a passionate and hard- working group of people.

MOVIES AND TV

Planet of the Apes considers human condition

By Ryan Greene

@Ryangre75057034

“War for the Planet of the Apes” demands that audiences take a hard look at what it means to be human.

Before delving into the new film’s narrative, however, one needs to revisit the 1968 version. It continues to be a classic because it upended our most universal assumption: that humanity’s supremacy can be taken for granted.

Driving the film is character George Taylor, played by Charleton Heston, who is shocked at losing this status in an instant, and losing it to another species that cannot empathize with human suffering. It forces a reflection on our treatment of other species and historical injustices nations carry out against one another.

The film posits that when one group views another as intellectually inferior, atrocities are inevitable. Superior and inferior statuses are not necessar-

ily irreversible, either.

The 1968 film accomplishes this through an exclusively human perspective. In 2017, director Matt Reeves’ “War for the Planet of the Apes” proclaims many of the same messages through a new vantage point. “War” asks audiences to view this narrative through the eyes of those who would replace them.

The film is full of heavy-handed and sometimes eye-rollingly obvious Biblical and Shakespearean allegories.

However, Reeves bends audience’s minds in another way.

None of the humans in “War for the Planet of the Apes” are depicted as heroic. They are merely trying to survive, and are killing apes in order to do so.

They are also wiping out one another, murdering anyone who is infected with Simian Flu. James Franco’s character, who raised Caesar, played by Andy Serkis, in the series’ first installment, was the last sympathetic human the rebooted se-

ries gave us. Reeves never gives audiences much incentive to root for their own species’ continuation.

The narrative instead asks viewers to side with the apes’ plight, while knowing full well that their victory will result in humanity’s eventual subjugation and demise. Our species is going extinct before our eyes, and we applaud. If that does not make you shift uneasily in your theater seat, nothing will.

In 2014, Serkis made waves in Hollywood when he said, “Caesar and all the other computer generated characters I have ever played are driven by one thing and that is acting.

Audiences want to be moved by acting, not by a visual effect.”

While Serkis and actors like him are hardly auteur in their views of who makes a film evocative, it is impossible to deny the cornucopia of CGI effects in “War for the Planet of the Apes.” Fleets of apes stand together, gesticulating and appearing perfectly distinct from

one another. The detail in their digital skins is staggering and we

can see each individual hair on their coats. Practical effects and

stuntmen in rubber suits simply would not compare.

Much has been written on the subject of performance capture one day replacing traditional acting. This is part of what makes “War” one of those rare, intellectual action films. While we ponder human replacement by ape, we are immersed in a film that replaces most of the actors with motion captured, digital facades.

Should you watch it? Yes. Humanity is thus threatened with replacement by primitive creatures in the film’s world and by technological advancement in the real world.

Our technology threatens to absorb the human art of acting, and it does so while materializing the face of our hyper-intelligent genetic ancestors. In both cases, creation replaces creator.

As Woody Harrelson’s villainous Colonel says of the apes’ impending takeover, “The irony is that we created you.”
