Parking passes are not a cheap expense at Colorado State University. The annual cost for a Z permit pass, allowing the permit holder to access the Z, R and ZR parking spots, is a whopping $584. That kind of money is enough to buy a PlayStation 5 — so you would also expect, at the very least, to be able to park in the lot you paid for.
Like airlines oversell tickets, CSU oversold parking passes. Instead of figuring out where to put the excess cars before the semester started, CSU waited until Sept. 8 to send out an email detailing additional parking locations for pass holders.

Keith Darrell and Shawn Holes have become recurring characters on the Colorado State University Lory Student Center Plaza. They show up at the start of every semester to preach their bigoted interpretations of the Bible, spouting homophobic, sexist and racist rhetoric at students on their way to class.
The preachers almost always draw a big crowd. People show up to earnestly ask questions, shout back at the preachers and — most importantly — make fun of their hateful rhetoric.

The campus preachers have already been out on The Plaza within the first two weeks of school, spewing their nonsensical and hate-filled rhetoric as they have the last few academic years. That means the massive crowds of students surrounding the so-called preachers have also returned, which is exactly the problem.
The campus preachers — a loose and dishonest nickname given to people who think they are accurately depicting the word of God when they are doing quite the opposite — can only survive on campus with the attention of students.

Another school year has commenced, and with the new semester comes new foolish-minded activities and disciplines attempted to become everyday habits by students.
Atop the list of those habits is developing a regular workout routine, usually implementing the many luxuries offered by the Colorado State University Student Recreation Center.
CHAARG, which stands for Changing Health, Attitudes and Actions to Recreate Girls, is a club at Colorado State University that is also present at over 100 other college campuses nationwide, according to...

What do you think of when you hear about the Associated Students of Colorado State University?
For some students at Colorado State University, ASCSU is a place where they can make an impact. Other students hear about the organization in passing, such as during election season, while the remainder of students don’t know what ASCSU is or what they are responsible for.

The first few weeks at college are exciting, especially for first-year students. Meeting new friends, attending the first of many lectures and learning the ins and outs of Fort Collins are a few of many things new Colorado State University students can look forward to.
However, with the first few weeks come the first few weekends, when the expectation is seemingly to party like Monday is never coming.
Campus and community organizations and student groups frequently table on Colorado State University's Plaza, but this week brought a new type of tabler to town. Instead of giving out free merchandise or informational flyers, this tent-covered business is selling various-sized posters, tapestries and postcards alongside poster tubes and poster- and postcard-sized frames.
Poster Invasion is a social enterprise that sells art exclusively through pop-up sales on college campuses in more than 40 states around the nation. The enterprise was founded by CEO Mandi van Hill, and its website states Poster Invasion is "the first woman-owned business to successfully make it in the pop-up poster sale space."
