As the leaves begin to turn and the temperatures begin to drop this upcoming week, preventing the October sicknesses that plague campus is of utmost importance. For those who frequent the Colorado State University fraternities, however, another symptom is just on the horizon, sweeping across the solo-cup masses.
The hot weather doesn’t help in reminding me that it is officially October, but it is, meaning that it is time to enjoy all the fun festivities and activities that are some of my personal favorites to do during the fall season.
Over the past few weeks, the Colorado State University football team has been receiving a lot of media attention after The Rocky Mountain Showdown, specifically in regard to the death threats being made against Henry Blackburn.

Thousands of people turned up to support the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's women’s volleyball team, in their match against Omaha to show support for women’s collegiate athletics, in a way that has never been seen before on that scale.

As Rams, our friendship is evergreen. The ties that bind us together are more precious than gold. Our voices are as bright and bold as the “A” on a mountainside directing traffic in the sky. Side by side, we acquire knowledge, expertise and memories for a lifetime.
These Colorado State University and University of Colorado Boulder rivalries are seriously starting to get out of hand. Just last night while I was scrolling on the news, I learned that there is a case being made against a person in CAM’s office chanting sko’ buffs down the halls.

Colorado State University football hosted their season opener last Saturday, and if any of you are also on the mailing list for CSU Athletics, then you probably also received numerous emails from them urging you go to the football game.
