Rams enjoy a cold one on campus

[smartslider3 slider=”102″]

Nothing transports “adult” college students back to elementary school faster than a snowstorm. The night before a snowstorm is an unforgettable feeling packed with superstition. Whether it be wearing your pajamas inside out, putting a spoon in the freezer, ice in the toilet or the classic crossed fingers, snow days take on an otherworldly quality.

Ad

If the day before a snow day is immature, the morning of one is downright childish (in all the best ways)! Fort Collins seems to come alive during a snowstorm, whether it be with snowball fights, snow sculpting or skiing/snowboarding of some kind, there is always fun to be had. This “snowpocalypse” was different, as Rams celebrated in any and all ways possible.

About the Contributor
Luke Bourland, Photo Director
Luke Bourland is a history major from Durham, Connecticut. Bourland is studying history in hopes of going to law school in the fall 2022 semester after graduation. In terms of which law school Bourland wants to go to, he likes to joke, "I will attend anywhere that'll have me!" Bourland has been taking pictures recreationally for most of his life but did not officially join The Collegian until the beginning of his sophomore year in 2019. Bourland originally joined The Collegian to develop his skills and to photograph out of his comfort zone. During his time at The Collegian, Bourland has held positions such as freelance photographer, media archivist, assistant photo editor, photo editor and finally, photo director. As the photo director, it is Bourland's job to make sure the paper is accompanied with beautiful pictures alongside the photo editor. Bourland has photographed events ranging from speeches and galas to football and basketball games. In his free time, Bourland is an avid golfer, fly-fisherman and still loves to take pictures recreationally. Differing from the style of photography at The Collegian, Bourland enjoys slowing down and shooting landscapes and portraits on film. Bourland first learned how to develop film with a friend in the bathrooms of Corbett Hall, stuffing towels under the doors to avoid any light leaking in. No matter where life takes Bourland, he hopes that photography will always be there along the ride.
