Although it pains me to pick a singular favorite photo from my time on the desk, I love this photo and the memories behind it. The TEDxCSU conference was my first press pass experience, and I will never forget the excitement I felt as well as the pride of my fellow rams as they shared their ideas and passions on stage.”
Exigency, an urgent need or demand, was the theme of the annual TEDxCSU conference on Saturday, March 9th, 2019, in the Lory Student Center Theatre. Technology, Entertainment and Design (TED) is a nonprofit dedicated to ideas worth spreading. (Alyssa Uhl | The Collegian)
