Guest Author • January 18, 2023

As a third-year Business Major at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado, life was moving very fast in the Spring of 2022. I was balancing a heavy class load and working 15-20 hours a week. The summer months were on the horizon, and I had not yet secured an internship when I came across an open position at CSU Spur.

LTTE: CSU employees deserve to earn a livable wage for the work they do

Guest Author • November 15, 2022

In 2013, I moved to Fort Collins as a single parent and sole provider of three children, who at the time were in grades three, four and six. I had a dream of coming back to college at 37 and pulling my children and me out of poverty to change our family trajectory. I applied for every scholarship, loan and grant that I was able to. Our family moved into international family housing, and I started back on my undergraduate degree in human development and family studies at Colorado State University. I loved every second of my education and felt that I would be able to graduate and pay off the loans. I was a peer advisor in the department of human development and family studies and was ready to apply to every single position in advising as an academic success coordinator possible.
