Beer Edition: New Belgium is a tribute to beer and bikes in Fort Collins

Callum Burke, Collegian Columnist April 10, 2022
When discussing the many aspects of Fort Collins that embrace its storied personality, there are a lot to choose from. For starters, you could mention the architecture of Old Town and the inspiration it supplied for the design of Main Street, U.S.A. You could also describe the picturesque Horsetooth Rock and accompanying view of Colorado’s vast foothills and mountains. Although both examples are suitable and worth mentioning, it would be a disgrace to neglect the importance of both beer and bicycles to the City, especially with the celebration of National Beer Day on April 7.

Beer Edition: Stella: We should lower the legal drinking age

Michael Stella, Collegian Columnist April 10, 2022
Drinking has often been taboo in the United States, and it even got to the point where the 18th amendment was passed, basically banning alcohol. The 18th amendment lived on for 13 years from 1919-33 until the 21st amendment was passed, allowing for the sale, transportation and possession of alcohol to be legal again.

Here at Colorado State University, that journey of self-discovery is one freshmen know all too well. Thanks to the preexisting knowledge that this journey is something that will happen for new students, the Office of Inclusive Excellence is one of those places where these students can turn in times of need.
