More than a thousand strangers gath-ered in the rain Oct. 13 to release purple and green balloons as a memorial for Jessica Ridgeway, who was abducted on Oct. 5 and found dead Oct. 10 in Arvada.

The supporters offered condolences not only to Jessica’s family and friends, but to each other.

“It brought the family and community together,” Brian Trullinger, the site com-mander said. “It’s about Jessica.”

The balloons were released with notes for Jessica, written mostly by visitors who had never met Jessica or her family.

“The amount of support that the com-munity has shown is just overwhelming,” Jessica’s cousin Shannon Wimer said. “I didn’t know the community could come together like this.”

Many visitors dressed in purple, Jessica’s favorite color, as they not only mourned but celebrated her life.

“It’s too much to even comprehend. As a mom of five, it’s hard. I can only imagine what [Jessica’s mom] is going through,” Denver’s Charris Smith said.

Several mourners discussed that even though acts of evil leave their mark on the community, so do acts of kindness.

“There are more good people than bad people, we just have to remember that,” said Amber Gersch, a command center volunteer at the memorial.

The gathering took place at American Furniture Warehouse, near 94th Avenue and Wadsworth Parkway in Westminster.

The student club CIAO wants to say goodbye to inaccessibility at Auraria.

Rodney Dean, president of the Critical Issue and Awareness Opportunity group, recently submitted a letter to the Student Government Assembly’s Finance Commit-tee requesting $500 to research how to make the campus more accessible for mechanically assisted students.

The funds are intended to gather plans about the sites and present them to Auraria Higher Education Center. The Finance Com-mittee discussed CIAO’s letter in their meet-ing held 2 p.m. Oct. 5 in Tivoli 307. Eight MSU Denver students attended the meeting.

The committee’s discussions grew lengthy with questions, opinions and ideas. Many on the committee didn’t like the idea

of spending money up front without talking to AHEC first. They also wanted to make sure CCD and UCD would be willing to split the funding three ways.

“If we don’t come [before AHEC] with a set of plans, then we are at the mercy of AHEC again, and it hasn’t been done be-fore,” Dean said.

SGA Senator Ian Brown had a different opinion on how to possibly solve the issue without spending a dime.

“Take this to [the Americans with Dis-abilities Act], have the ADA re-evaluate our campus, which was originally designed for 15,000 students and [currently has] 50,000 students,” Brown said. “Maybe they will say that we need more ramps. If the say we do, then AHEC has to build them, or just put up

a sign.”Dean agreed with Brown’s ADA idea, but

the ideas of signs didn’t sit well with Dean’s goals.

“If you want to go ahead and make the campus more accessible to more people, then we need to show that we are doing some-thing different,” Dean said.

In a 4-1 vote, a motion was passed not to give CIAO the $500, but to compile the information and send it to the Student Ad-visory Committee to the Auraria Board and have them decide, since SACAB works with AHEC. Student Finance Chair Britta Hurula asked Senator Brogan Davey and Student Vice President Anthony Sylvester to take the matter to the committee.

“We are confident that the topic won’t

be pushed aside, but will continue to be a joint effort, so all students have access to the whole campus,” Dean said.

Also during the series of SGA commit-tee meetings, the Student Voice Commit-tee placed a possible new campus smoking policy on their agenda. According to SGA meeting minutes, Student Voice Chair Joe Boss will be further working on this pro-posal.

For more information, or to volunteer with Metro’s club CIAO, please contact ciao.denver@gmail.com. Students with concerns can attend MSU Denver’s Student Voice public meetings held at 1 p.m. every Friday at the Tivoli, room 307.

In Colorado, the Latino vote is personal and powerful.

“It’s not just a policy discussion any-more; we’re really seeing this become personal for Latino voters,” said Gabriel Sanchez, director of research at Latino Deci-sions, who presented new polling data from 400 Colorado Latino voters Oct. 10 in the Tivoli.

Political analysts, professors and com-munity activists took part in the presenta-tion and panel discussion that looked at the impact of immigration issues and how La-tino voters will influence the 2012 elections. Results showed that immigration reform and the economy were top concerns among Latino voters.

Sanchez cited data from a June 2011, national survey showing 53 percent of Latino voters know an undocumented resident.

“It goes from a policy issue to a personal issue,” said Sonia Gutierrez, MSU Denver senior. “Me knowing many people who these policies affect directly makes it very personal.”

Other survey results indicated bipartisan support among Colorado Latino voters for the Asset bill, which failed in the last legisla-tive session. The Asset bill would create a lower tuition rate for some undocumented students who meet certain requirements. Currently, such students pay the out-of-state tuition rate at most of the state’s institutions. This summer, however, MSU Denver became the first school in the state to adopt a third non-resident tuition rate for undocumented

students. “There’s a moment in our lives when

we find out what it really means to be an undocumented student,” said Sergio De La Rosa, a panel member and a leader with the Together Colorado Action Fund. “To understand that you’ve worked extremely hard throughout your entire pre-collegiate life just so when you’re standing outside those doors, you realized, [I] can’t really pay for this.”

De La Rosa has been accepted at MSU Denver for the spring semester.

Data for 2010 shows that 40 percent of Colorado’s population growth came from the Latino community, Olivia Mendoza said. Mendoza, Executive Director of the Colo-rado Latino Forum, said this means there will be policy and electoral implications for years to come.

“I believe it’s one of the most important rights that we have, here in the United States, to be able to choose who our leaders will be,” De La Rosa said.

Dr. Robert Preuhs, an MSU Denver political science professor, presented new re-sults showing 74 percent of Colorado Latino voters support President Barack Obama and 20 percent support Mitt Romney, with six percent undecided. Preuhs said Colorado Latino voters showed strong enthusiasm for Democratic policy as compared to Republi-can policy.

Latinos overwhelmingly blame the Re-publicans in Congress, rather than Obama for a lack of comprehensive immigration

reform, Sanchez said. Yet, deportation num-bers are at an all-time high under President Obama, and Latino voters are holding him accountable.

“Do you go with the known commodity of President Obama, who you have hope in, or do you go with self-deportation?” Sanchez asked.

Mendoza identified access to afford-able education as another key issue for local Latino voters, saying it opens doors and enables them to break the cycle of poverty.

“When we talk about voting, it’s not just about that one day; it’s about every day after that: talking to your elected officials and holding them accountable,” Mendoza said.

The fresh survey results were compiled for America’s Voice by Latino Decisions. America’s Voice is an organization that works for immigration reform, legal status and a path to citizenship for undocumented residents.

Word on the streetWhat issue is the most important to you in this election?

“The issue for me is financial aid and not being able to afford school. With Rom-ney’s plan, I feel like he’s going to raise the interest rates on loans which is going to put more people like me out of school. But with Obama, he’s planning to lower the interest loans and I think he’s trying to take away the loan debt after a certain amount of years. I think that’s more fair than Romney’s plan. ”

“The most important thing to me is the economy. Obama is trying to make it more of a centrally planned economy. The way I see it, America was never like that. We haven’t ever been a country that is fully dependent on their government. My vote is going for Romney. Making jobs in a free market where the private sector is in charge of creating jobs is the way you are going to fix this type of economy.”

“Barack Obama doesn’t really suit what I need, because he helps more of the im-migrants and not more American people. [Romney is] a good guy, but I just don’t make enough money to vote for what his policies are. With the immigration rate, it’s harder for me to get jobs now because of people coming in and getting jobs, getting welfare, and meanwhile I’m getting pushed back. [Obama] has let a lot of people come in this country illegally and they’re reaping what we should be sowing.”

“I’ve been listening about [women’s rights issues] because I’m a woman, and obviously, I’m planning on getting pregnant at some point. I feel like the commercials are not very truthful to what actually is going on. That’s why I feel like I’m not very well informed.”

Twenty years from now, the Auraria we know will be long gone.

By 2032, the “Auraria Master Plan” will have changed the face and scope of the entire campus, with all three schools expanding and redistributing.

Th e plan is headed up by each of the tri-institutional executives, including repre-sentatives from various faculty and student committees, and the Auraria Higher Educa-tion Center executives.

Th e plan will work to give each school its own unique, expanded neighborhood, while still sharing the common campus core (the Science Building, the library, and the King Center), and services that help all the schools, according to Jill Jennings Golich, the AHEC campus planner who helped draft the plan.

“[With this plan] each institution [will have] essentially one of the primary access ways to campus. MSU Denver is now [us-ing] Auraria Parkway as well as 5th Street, for the new fi eld properties which they’re developing, CU Denver will be along Speer Boulevard because they bridge downtown and have three buildings downtown, and the Community College of Denver whose primary home has been South Classroom on Colfax will concentrate their development along Colfax,” Golich said.

Along with the expanded, defi ned neigh-borhoods, the Auraria Master Plan is going to overlook what the campus infrastructure needs as most of the buildings date back to the late 1880’s. But the plan will also include potential new streets with bike facilities, and traffi c changes.

Aft er the Redwood Lot (North of the Athletic Fields) is torn down, a new parking garage at 5th Street and Walnut Street (part of the Elm Lot) will be built and open for Fall 2014. Golich said the campus would still maintain the same parking capacity from 2007 of 7,000 spaces (when changes were made to the master plan). Funding for the new garage will come from parking revenue.

According to Golich, between Janu-ary and March, students will be seeing new monuments that identify the entire campus as a whole. Each school will update their existing monuments. New pedestrian, vehicular, and directional signage will be put up around campus, and the Auraria Master Plan team will be working with Denver to put up banners and new trees on Larimer which leads up to the campus.

Starting with MSU Denver, along with the Student Success Building and the Hotel and Hospitality Learning Center, there will be a new building located at 7th Street and Auraria Parkway. Sean Nesbitt, MSU Denver’s Director of Facilities Planning and Space Management, said nothing has been decided yet and that the team will work on a plan within the next year that identifi es the

budget, funding, and what programs will go into the building.

He did clarify the new changes that will be made to the Athletics Field complex.

“We are still in the design phase and plan to begin construction in January. Phase one includes the tennis courts that were removed for the HLC. When funding becomes avail-able, we hope to add baseball and soccer,” Nesbitt said.

Right now, CCD is constructing the Student Learning and Engagement Center on 7th Street and Curtis Street that will open for business in Summer 2013. Funding is coming from student fees and other sources.

“[Th e building] will house the services students need all in one convenient location, along with study areas and a café. Th e top fl oor, which has a spectacular view to the west, is a student study lab,” said CCD Presi-dent Cliff Richardson. “Th e changes that have already been made provided [South Classroom] seven new classrooms, and work on the new café has begun. Soon, the renova-tion of the courtyard will begin and that will provide a beautiful southern entry to the campus.”

Renovation to the courtyard began Oct. 1, and it will be closed to pedestrian traffi c until its completion on Dec. 31. Students can enter and exit South Classroom through the north, east and south doors.

UCD is designing its new building, which will be located on Speer Boulevard and Larimer Street, according to Cary

Weatherford, UCD Senior Planner with the Offi ce of Institutional Planning. It will house lecture halls, student services, and offi ce space for their College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, which is currently located in fi ve diff erent buildings. Construction for this project will begin January 2013 and will open in Fall 2014. No student fees will fund it.

“It’s the fi rst building in our UCD neigh-borhood,” said Weatherford. “It’s meant to be the hub [of] our new neighborhood and we’re really excited about that.”

Each new project is bid out separately and multiple contractors from diff erent con-struction companies are working on them.

Lastly, some buildings on the Aura-ria campus — which are currently being shared by the diff erent institutions — will be moving around to their respective school neighborhoods over time. CCD will use South classroom, CU Denver will use North Classroom, and MSU Denver will use the administration building on 5th Street, ac-cording to Golich. Nesbitt also added that on Sept. 29-30, new classes from diff erent areas of study were moved to the fi rst fl oor of Central Classroom and that improvements will be made to faculty offi ces and classes of diff erent studies until May.

“Depending on funding, depending on enrollment, and depending on needs, that really determines when new buildings will go up,” said Golich.

We love conflict. Or we should.That was the message Jake Kasper, MSU

Denver’s coordinator for student conflict resolution services, conveyed at his work-shop Oct. 8 in the Science Building. Kasper held this workshop as a part of the univer-sity’s lineup of discussions and workshops scheduled for Colorado Conflict Resolution Month.

In 2005, the Association of Conflict Resolution declared the third Thursday of October to be Conflict Resolution Day.

A year later, the legislature and governor of Colorado declared the entire month of October Conflict Resolution Month.

Each October, the state legislature and a variety of organizations host lectures, films and workshops to discuss everything from mediation to negotiation to find peaceable solutions to difficult problems.

For the first time, MSU Denver has something to offer as well.

This year, the university is hosting its own Conflict Resolution Month—complete with workshops and roundtable discussions to aid both faculty and students in finding ways to deal with conflict in their lives.

“If you want to accomplish anything, conflict is the road to progress,” Kasper said.

Conflict is not something to hide from, according to Kasper.

He said that it can often be used to solve

problems. He cited the controversial call by a replacement referee during the Sept. 24 Seattle versus Green Bay NFL game and pointed out how quickly official referees were back on the fields.

“Conflict is everywhere in our lives, it’s how we embrace it that will shape our indi-vidual successes,” Kasper said. “There’s such a negative connotation when it comes to conflict, but I firmly believe conflict is neces-sary for progress in any aspect of our lives.”

Kasper’s Oct. 8 workshop was a mix of students and faculty who learned that con-flict was not always something to back away from, but that it was occasionally something to stand up to. It can also be something to put on the back burner and revisit later, he said.

Nancy Sayre, the chair for the Health Professions Department, was among the workshop’s attendees.

She said she was hoping to gain some direction for dealing with conflict in her personal life. She said she has no problem dealing with the students who come to her frustrated by professors or rules and policies that they don’t understand.

“[Frustration] is so a student issue,” Sayre said. “We have policies for everything.”

Graduate student Amanda Mathews is a social work major, and works with a classroom of grade school students as part

of her internship. She used the workshop as a refresher for lessons she’d already been taught.

“I took a semester-long course in conflict resolution as part of my major,” Mathews said. “It’s been so long, though, and I’ve no-ticed that there’s a lot of conflict that’s been coming up in my life that has been harder for me to deal with than it had been before.”

Kasper said that it is the goal of the stu-

dent conflict resolution services office to help students understand how to appropriately deal with whatever conflict they face.

“Conflict resolution isn’t about winning or losing,” Kasper said. “It’s about multiple sides coming together to learn about other perspectives and coming to a mutual agree-ment that satisfies everyone.”

Mother not to blame in tragedy of circumstance

Colorado has been through hell.Early this summer, half the state burned,

and hundreds of Colorado families lost everything. In July, the world watched as we mourned the loss of 12 people, injuries to 59 and the disbelief in the inhumanity of one. Now, this state faces another loss — the death of a child.

The disappearance and murder of Jessica Ridgeway is a sickening example of the worst that the human race has to offer. And, in the aftermath of events like these, it is hard to maintain trust in those around us.

Five years ago, we lost four people in church shootings that spanned cities and spread hatred. Six years ago, a sophomore at Platte Canyon High School in Bailey, Colo. was murdered in a school shooting standoff. In 1999, at Columbine High School, we lost 13 people in what can only be described as an act of pure evil.

We’ve seen tornadoes rip our towns apart. We’ve seen our shopping malls rigged with bombs. We’ve endured freezes, droughts and floods.

However, it is also in the wake of these tragic times that we see some of the bravest acts of human courage and kindness.

After a summer this difficult, it seems the darkest rain cloud is looming overhead — but the people of the centennial state are

nothing if not perseverant, and the com-munity responses to tragedies like these are remarkable.

Roughly $5 million was raised to help the victims of the Aurora shooting, accord-ing to The Denver Post on Oct. 15.

Following this summer’s wildfires, Coloradans not only donated to big-name charities, but also started their own, such as Wildfire Tees and the Waldo Canyon Fire Photographers. Now, following Jessica’s murder, Colorado is decked out in purple ribbons.

There isn’t much that can be said to ease the ache of a summer this raw, but even if there was, the people of this state wouldn’t need to hear it.

Time after time, Coloradans have bounced back from tragedy and have pulled together to rebuild. We have learned how to grieve, but we have also learned how to live.

And we have learned how to hope.It is this that makes Colorado so strong

— belief in the face of the formidable and faith during the unthinkable.

Even as our hearts break for the loss of one of our children, we don’t let the bad guys win — that’s not who we are.

We carry on, we fight back, and we heal.There’s a reason that courage starts with

“CO.”

Nikki Worknwork@msudenver.edu

Kelli Heitstuman-Tomkoktomko@msudenver.edu

There is a woman in Colorado who is blaming herself for the death of her daughter and she doesn’t need our two-cents worth.

There have been questions about how Sarah Ridgeway could have slept through those calls from the school. Well, she did sleep through them. She was tired. She’d worked all night. To the best of her knowl-edge, her daughter was safe at school. She had no reason to believe otherwise.

Working a graveyard shift can be dif-ficult when one is raising a child.

Ridgeway had to give up certain aspects of a mother’s life with her daughter in order to make enough money to raise her. Little moments that we take for granted would have been rare treasures for a woman who has to sleep her day away so she can go back to work at night.

The outpouring of support in the search and vigils for Jessica was inspirational. It’s good for a community to know that its people will rally to aid the helpless. But that support we’ve given has been peppered with finger-pointing. Blaming a single mother — the one person who is the least at fault for the tragedy and was doing the best she could with the resources she had — is wrong.

It seems so easy to find fault with a victim of tragedy. Perhaps it is our way of

distancing ourselves. Maybe we feel that looking at a grieving mother and saying, “I would never have done it the way she did,” makes us feel like it won’t happen to us.

Let’s be honest. How many of us would walk our 10-year-old three blocks anywhere? As a parent of three, I can say that I never

did. How many parents hear their children tell them that they’re going to a friend’s house and then say goodbye without even walking to the door? Before Oct. 5, not a single parent in Northern Colorado thought twice about how much time they don’t actu-ally have an eye on their kids.

Why? Because despite the rough year that Colorado has had, it’s actually a safe place to live. Our kids can ride their bikes down the street. They can walk to school. They can run down the street to a friend’s house without mom standing on the porch

watching every step they take. According to the most current statistics

that the Colorado Bureau of Investigation of-fers, fewer than two percent of missing chil-dren in the state of Colorado are victims of stranger abduction. The average 10-year-old girl in Westminster has more to fear from her mother’s boyfriend, her estranged father, her older brother’s best friend or another family member than she does from the type of monster that snatched Jessica Ridgeway off the street.

What happened to Jessica is nothing new. It’s happened many times before — we know it has. We’ve read the stories in the paper, we’ve thought about how sad it was and we’ve gone on with our lives.

Things like this do not happen to chil-dren in our area.

When it does, we struggle to understand the randomness and turn critical eyes to the one person who least needs our criticism. If it’s her fault, then our children won’t be affected. If it’s her fault, then it’s not random and our children are safe.

So we’ll talk about Jessica Ridgeway’s abduction, what a tragedy it was and how we hope that her killer will be caught soon. But when we sit in our little cliques, though, we might blame Sarah Ridgeway for her daugh-ter’s death, but not nearly as much as she’ll blame herself.

Terrible times allow for courage, hope, healing

Renowned transgender author and per-formance artist Kate Bornstein spoke at Au-raria’s event marking National Coming Out Day Oct. 11, held at the Tivoli Turnhalle and put on by the office of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual & Transgender Student Services.

Bornstein shared her ideas about identity with the crowd.

“I think a large part of the problem with naming sexual orientation is it’s always been in terms of our gender and the relationship of our gender to the gender of our partner,” Bornstein said. “And there are a fuck of a lot more components to it than [that].”

Celebrated on Oct. 11 since 1988, the holiday was founded as a convenient way for gays and lesbians to openly share their iden-tities. Twenty-four years later, the day has become an opportunity for not just gays and lesbians, but bisexuals, transgender people and individuals with a host of other related identities to “come out” as well.

Auraria’s celebration featured two talks by Bornstein followed by a book signing, in addition to a talk by openly gay state representative Mark Ferrandino. It also included readings by Auraria students of several stories published in “The coming out monologues” and a multitude of tables from various organizations.

“Coming out nowadays is a little more difficult,” Bornstein said. “I am not a man. And I am not a woman. I break too many rules of each of those genders to say that I’m one or the other. You could call me transgressively gendered, you could call me transgender. Me, I call myself a travel-ler. I’m just travelling, through all sorts of identities, picking and choosing what works and leaving the rest behind.”

Bornstein described her gender expres-sion as “diesel femme.”

She has achieved somewhat of an under-ground celebrity status among LGBT people in the U.S. Known for challenging rigid sexual identities and traditional categori-zations of sexuality and gender, as well as for her irreverent wit, she often speaks on college campuses around the country and internationally.

Bornstein has written several books, in-cluding “Gender Outlaw: On Men, Women, and the Rest of Us,” “My Gender Workbook: How to Become a Real Man, a Real Woman, the Real You, or Something Else Entirely,” and “Hello Cruel World: 101 Alternatives to Suicide for Teens, Freaks and Other Out-laws.” During her first talk, she even tested out on the audience a few worksheet pages from the updated version of “My Gender Workbook,” which is going to press.

In May of this year Bornstein published a memoir that bears the full title of “A queer and pleasant danger: The true story of a nice Jewish boy who joins the Church of Scientol-ogy and leaves twelve years later to become the lovely lady she is today.”

“I was a Scientologist for 12 years,” Born-stein said. “That’s more embarrassing than admitting you’re a transsexual.”

Bornstein’s second talk used a slide show to explain postmodern theory and its ap-plications to identity and social justice in a down-to-earth manner.

She listed more than 40 identities that she associated as belonging under the broad umbrella of “gender anarchy and sex positiv-ity,” including things like polyamorous, kinky, furry, asexual, pornographer, sex worker and burlesque artist.

As much as she challenges what she sees as the limiting system of classifying people as gay, straight, bisexual and transgendered, Bornstein does recognize the value of labels.

“We have to be careful about umbrella terms,” Bornstein said. “But I don’t see any problem with labels, as long as you can tear them off if you want to and sew another one on. But I see labels more like pitons [for] mountain climbing — you hammer them in and then you leave them behind for some one else who wants them in their journey.”

But National Coming Out Day, and the

discussions surrounding it, do have rel-evance for some who might not normally fit under the LGBT umbrella.

GLBTSS office employee Craig Archu-letta, who helped organize the event, said that one of the biggest problems with the way most people define sexuality and gender is the exclusive focus on heterosexuality and being cisgender [not transgender], and that “those automatically mean that you’re not part of some of the other things that affect our communities. So if you are a white, straight, cisgender man, yes you definitely hold privilege — yet at the same time, if you are a white, straight, cisgender man who does pornography, or has been a sex worker, or any of those things, that informs your awareness of your own sexuality and other people’s sexualities.”

More than 65 people attended the cel-ebration, including students and members of the larger community.

“I’m from rural Kansas. There was no community there,” said MSU Denver sopho-more Tracy Nguyen. “I just kept [my iden-tity] quiet because I lived in a town of 40,000 people, and there were more than half a dozen churches there – and you couldn’t say anything, it wasn’t safe. Like [Bornstein] said, you only can come out when you feel safe. I knew going to Colorado, Denver es-pecially, would be a [way] I could find more people like me, a better community.”

CCD freshman Jinx Allyn, who is in-volved with the school’s Genders and Sexu-alities Alliance, appreciated Bornstein’s style of being simultaneously humorous, serious,

irreverent and challenging. “This is life — life is funny, life is tragedy,

life is confusing — but it can be great,” Allyn said.

Bornstein often refers to herself as a lesbian but is quick to point out that “that’s not quite right either.”

“I love people who are doing the hard work of being themselves in a world that wants us to be like everyone else,” she said. “That’s what I love.”

Hoppin’ on the Denver beer train Two Guns Pilsner (4.9%)

Kayla: � is is a full tasting pilsner with a so� touch. It’s not incredibly overpowering, but has a crispness that lingers on the tongue. A simple, light beer.

Nate: It was more than one expects out of a simple pilsner. It’s full of � avor and has a lot of body; rare for a pilsner. It’s smooth and drinkable to the end.

Patty’s Chile Beer (4.2%) Kayla: One deep whi� and you know

there are chilies in this drink, which is a little terrifying. Taste-wise, this has an imbalanced mix. � e chilies bite in a spicy, yet sweet way you’d hope for in a beer, but are not balanced and don’t work with the ale.

Nate: I was rather excited for this one. � e smell was just amazing! � ere were strong hints of ancho chiles and for a fan of chile beers, it was enticing. Unfortunately, I was let down a little. � ere was a strong chile � avor (no spice) but a watery � nish; the � avors weren’t blended well.

Rail Yard Ale (5.2%) Kayla: A well-rounded beer in every way.

� ere is a smoky and creamy � avor that is easy to drink, very refreshing and delicate. It is perfectly balanced dra� .

Nate: � is is already one of my favorite brews. � ere’s a smoky � avor that comes through in the draught version that I hadn’t tasted before. Not complaining though, it’s amazing; a perfectly balanced beer.

Mile HI.P.A (6.5%) Kayla: Nothing you’d expected in an IPA.

� is beer has a � oral smell that opens to a bitter hop taste that is not overpowering, but works perfectly on the taste buds — even for someone that doesn’t like IPAs.

Nate: � is is what an IPA should be. It be-gins with a very � oral smell and � nishes with the perfect amount of bitterness. It has tart, � owery mid-tones that aren’t overpowered by the bitterness. Coming from an adjusting IPA fan: I can’t get over how good it is.

London Calling IPA (5.9%) Kayla: � e smell reminds me of earth-

worms, which is an awkward start. De� nitely doesn’t give o� an IPA taste. � ere is a creami-ness that doesn’t hold much hop � avor. A very earthy taste that leaves you questioning the IPA-ness of this drink. Interesting, to say the least.

Nate: Of course, I’m a fan, it’s named af-ter � e Clash, but is it an IPA? It doesn’t taste like any other IPA I’ve ever had. Very dark and earthy � avors. When

it hits your mouth there’s a � avor that’s just unidenti� able. Maybe it’s the cask condition-ing and the wood � avors imparted in the process?

Cowtown Milk Stout (4.8%) Kayla: A very rich co� ee smell you’d

expect when walking into a co� ee shop. � e absolute best. Everything about this beer is exactly what you want when ordering a dark, high-quality stout. � e taste starts with an espresso essence that � nishes in the lightest, most delicate way. It leaves a milky, chocolate texture and taste on the tongue. � is is spiked co� ee for adults — de� nitely gets a gold metal.

Nate: To be honest, I was a little apprehen-sive about this one. � e last nitro milk stout I had was not very good. Oh my goodness, I was wrong. If you like co� ee, the smell of this beer will drive you crazy. � is beer is silky smooth and beyond balanced. It’s co� ee-chocolate milk beer. � is is a de� nite best in show.

Agave Wheat (4.2%) Kayla: � is has a very light wheat taste

with a fruity body that is easy on the palate. It is mellow and refreshingly creamy with the perfect fruity zing.

Nate: � is was already one of my favorite wheat beers. It’s well-balanced and full of � avor. � e wheat � avors are really imparted in the a� er-taste. � e agave, unfortunately, is unidenti� able. What exactly does agave taste like anyway?

Avalanche Amber Style (4.4%) Kayla: � is has a lighter taste with a hint

of hops and a caramel � nish that doesn’t leave much taste on the tongue. It tastes like a cheaper beer.

Nate: � is is a very light yet amber tast-ing ale. It’s just a good beer, no real promi-nent taste pro� les. Just a good beer with good body and good � nish.

Trademark Pale Ale (5.7%)Kayla: � is smells like a bouquet in

a cup. A very � owery taste with a good amount of hops that creates a nice balance in taste. A slight bitter a� ertaste that is quickly replaced by the reoccurring � ower taste that sits on the tongue a while a� er drinking.

Nate: � is has very � oral but very bal-anced taste. � ere’s no sharp hoppy � nish and no lingering a� er-taste. Overall, a very enjoyable pale ale.

Lucky U IPA (6.2%) Kayla: Holy shit, hops. A very, very strong IPA that � ts the de� nition of an Indian pale ale. A smooth start at � rst that has an over-whelming � nish.

Nate: Wow. Talk about hops. It has a smooth initial pro� le but a very bitter, hoppy � nish. � is one is a hop monster.

Vanilla Porter Ale (4.7%) Kayla: � is has a very sweet, somewhat

chocolaty taste that starts o� and � nishes with the smooth essence of vanilla that re-laxes the palate. It’s a good hearty drink with full � avor that is unexpected for a beer.

Nate: Mmm. � is is a dark but very smooth beer with a lingering hint of vanilla. It’s very, very balanced without much choco-late taste, but a de� nite sweetness.

Oatmeal Stout (4.95%)Kayla: Holy frothy, Batman. � is is a

very heavy and dark beer that is rich in co� ee taste. Malty as hell, with a slight hop � avor that never overpowers or becomes too present. But seriously, holy froth.

Nate: � is one has a strong co� ee taste with a bold � nish. It has tons of frothy head that sticks to the inside of the glass, cascad-ing down towards what’s le� . A slight sour taste is imparted by the oatmeal. It’s enjoy-able, but di� erent.

With Oktoberfest, Denver Beer Fest, and the Great American Beer Fest all bottled up, the beer-fueled fun may seem over. Thankfully, Colorado is bubbling with

micro-breweries of all shapes, tastes and sizes. Hades (7.8%)

Kayla: � is is very smooth and easy to drink with a well rounded grain taste. � e classic ‘beer’ � avor doesn’t really come through, making it a very light drink.

Nate: � is is a smooth, drinkable beer with a light and grainy pro� le. It’s almost too light. It tasted more like a porridge or some-thing than a beer. It just doesn’t do it for me.

Nomad (5.4%) Kayla: � is tastes like a carbonated wine

that really, really wants to be a beer. It has a subtle fruit smell and an even subtler fruit taste paired with mellow wheat that doesn’t of-fer anything too exciting.

Nate: It seems like a wine that wants to be a beer. It’s very carbonated and sparkling. Overall, it’s lacking � avor but there is a strong, non-lingering earth-like a� er taste that just isn’t for my palette.

Denver Pale Ale (5.5%) Kayla: � is has a mellower hoppy taste for

a pale ale. � e heaviness of the hops makes it taste a little imbalanced (though, it is a pale ale). � e hops do a great job of biting the back of the tongue a� er each sip.

Nate: � is is a good, hoppy ale, but it’s lacking an overall balance for me — the hops are just too prevalent from beginning to end.

Claymore Scotch Ale (7.7%) Kayla: � is drink has a rich, thick taste

just barely on the co� ee side with a hint of sweet caramel that mimics the taste of a delec-table dessert. � ere is a slight bitter a� er-taste that the tongue easily adjusts to, and enjoys.

Nate: Roasty. It has a good overall � avor with a smooth, creamy texture — not much carbonation. It would seemingly be paired with desserts like cheesecake or main courses like roasts. Once the palate is adjusted the bit-terness at the end resolves.

Rumble (7.1%)Kayla: � is is a delicate co� ee taste that

is paired with surprisingly � avorful hops that o� ers an interesting � avor.

Nate: A very intriguing beer! It has a hoppy � avor that’s very � owery and � oral. I seemed to pick up an odd co� ee note in this one. No complaints, just di� erent.

Oak Aged Yeti (9.5%) Kayla: � is drink has a shocking � avor on

the taste buds at � rst, which begs another sip for pure curiosity’s sake. A very strong, milky co� ee taste that seems too strong in the wrong ways when it comes to beer.

Nate: � is one was not what I expected, having already tried the original Yeti. I’m still torn on whether I like this or not, and unfortunately I’d have to lean towards a no. Nothing against it necessarily, just a little too strong for my taste with an alcohol content of 9.5%. It has very strong co� ee and malt � avor with nearly no carbonation. Somewhere in the middle, a sour � avor imparts which is an issue is for me.

Sunnyside Hefeweizen (5.2%) Kayla: this has a slight bubblegum � avor

that is extremely light and creamy, and a mellow and sunny taste that is rich and bold in � avor. De� nitely a refreshing beer for a sunny day that gets sweeter with each sip.

Nate: � is is a very light and balanced beer. � e hefeweizen yeast gives it a light bubblegum � avor. It is springy and refresh-ing.

Hey Pumpkin’ (unknown)Kayla: � is is a sweet Fall time beer that

has an amber-like taste. � e pumpkin is obvious with a deep sni� , and for a second, during the middle of the sip, but is not overpowering. It is smooth and easy to drink.

Nate: I just can’t taste the pumpkin in this, but that’s kind of common in pumpkin brews. It has a smooth, amber � avor with a very refreshing and light � nish.

Project ‘x1635’ IPA (unknown)Kayla: It starts o� with a full � avor that

turns bitter and gets overpowered by the taste of burnt hops and leaves the throat especially dry.

Nate: � is one is really good, but very bitter. � e hops taste is very well balanced and lingers on the tongue. � ere is a tart, � oral � avor and it just smells amazing. On second taste, it is much more reserved. De� -nitely less bitter once the palate adjusts.

Mayor Mike’s ‘5280’ Brew (unknown)

Kayla: � is tastes like liquid apple pie that is strangely delicious. A wonderful Fall time beer. A hidden, fruity essence that hints at peppermint or cinnamon.

Nate: � is one is weirdly delicious. At � rst, I thought it was a cinnamon apple pie-like taste, but I just can’t place it. It has very seasonal and Christmassy taste for me. I think it might be a peppermint � avor. Graham Cracker Porter (5.9%)

Kayla: � is reminds me of a watered down dark beer. A full � avor for the � rst second that is quickly washed away by the lacking taste of un� avored water. De� nitely begs to be stronger, like a pot of co� ee that needed a few more scoops of grounds.

Nate: � is one just sounds exciting. It smells quite roasty and chocolate and the lingering a� er-taste matches perfectly. It’s � avorful, but the taste seems to be separate — it just isn’t blended well.

Sunnyside Hefeweizen (5.2%)

that is extremely light and creamy, and a mellow and sunny taste that is rich and bold in � avor. De� nitely a refreshing beer for a sunny day that gets sweeter with each sip.

Nate: beer. � e hefeweizen yeast gives it a light bubblegum � avor. It is springy and refresh-ing.

Hey Pumpkin’ (unknown)Kayla:

has an amber-like taste. � e pumpkin is obvious with a deep sni� , and for a second, during the middle of the sip, but is not overpowering. It is smooth and easy to drink.

Nate: this, but that’s kind of common in pumpkin brews. It has a smooth, amber � avor with a very refreshing and light � nish.

Tivoli overflowswith sudsy historyCaitlin Sieverscsiever2@msudenver.edu

Students hankering for a cold, refresh-ing beer between classes might wish that the Tivoli brewery was still open for business.

In 1864, Moritz Sigi founded the Colorado Brewery where the Tivoli Student Union now stands, said UCD history profes-sor, Tom Noel.

Sigi was a German immigrant — like a lot of brewery owners in Denver at the time — and it is likely that the working language was German, Noel said.

The union cards for the workers were printed in German and some even had quotes from Karl Marx on the back, said Dennis Gallagher, Denver auditor and local history buff.

Those filling bottles at the brewery got some enviable perks.

“Workers at the brewery had a great ben-efit,” Noel said. “You could drink on the job.”

Some jobs were less desirable than oth-ers. Local folklore says that those stirring

the mash would breathe in too many fumes while standing over it and fall in.

Breweries offered more than rivers of beer and a place to work. Brewpubs like the Tivoli were important to the growing Denver community because they acted as one of the first social services — patrons could buy beer for a nickel and get a free hot meal, Galla-gher said.

None of the original brewery still stands, but the corner lobby on the northeast side was built in 1881, a year before the Turnhalle was erected in 1882 (as the West Denver Turnhalle Opera Hall). The people of Denver gathered in the Turnhalle for all sorts of entertainment, much like students do today. Guests enjoyed music and dance perfor-mances from the time it was built until the 1940s. The iconic Tivoli tower was erected in 1890 by then owner Max Melsheimer.

The tower originally was used for grain storage on the upper levels, and fermenta-

tion, bottling and storage on the lower levels, according to Noel’s book “Denver’s Larimer Street.”

John Good, founder of German National Bank, took over the brewery in 1900 and renamed it Tivoli after a famous amusement park in Copenhagen, Denmark. The brewery expanded to take over the entire city block.

The Tivoli stayed open during prohibi-tion by producing near-beers called “Dash” and “Peppy Brew.” Dash’s label describes it as, “a nutritious, stimulating and highly re-freshing cereal beverage.” Many believe that the Tivoli may have also secretly produced alcohol during this time, Noel said.

The brewery changed hands many times over the next few decades and continued to compete with other top area breweries.

Things started going downhill after the brewery flooded in 1965. The Platte overflowed and caused more than $100,000 worth of damage. The Tivoli never bounced

back. “Some said that Tivoli beer tasted like

the Platte river forever after,” Noel said. After hardships including union strikes

and competition from Coors Brewery in the late 1960s, the Tivoli Brewery closed in 1969.

It was declared a Denver landmark in 1972 in order to save it from demolition. Auraria students voted against making the building their student union, and it stood empty — used as a shelter for homeless and a playground for high school kids. Students eventually voted in favor of making the Tivoli their student union in 1991. Now, the building serves all three Auraria institu-tions.

Noel thinks that students like the Tivoli because it has more history and character than other buildings on campus. He believes it serves as the “spiritual center of campus.”

“XCOM: Enemy Unknown” is a reboot of the 18-year-old XCOM name, which fi lls PC gamers with both dread and delight.

Th e alien-fi ghting series began with “X-COM: UFO Defense” released for MS-DOS and Amiga in 1994.

Th e tactical strategy game spawned a number of sequels, both as strategy games and other genre-specifi c ones, but most XCOM fans continue to point toward the fi rst in the series as their favorite and as the best one. Aft er “X-COM: Enforcer” in 2001, though, the series almost disappeared.

More recently, Firaxis, which created “Sid Meier’s Civilization” series, “Sid Meier’s Sim Golf” and “Sid Meier’s Pirates!” released “XCOM: Enemy Unknown,” a real successor to the fi rst XCOM games that lives up to the XCOM name.

Th e game puts players in control of a large underground base, which exists for the sole purpose of discovering and eradicating alien threats on Earth.

Th e base is where they can choose what they want their research and engineering teams to do, customize their soldiers, and, most importantly, scan for alien activity. Th e base looks and acts much like an ant farm, allowing the player to look into any of the rooms they’ve built and see what’s going on in them.

Decisions made in the research lab, engi-neering room and even in the barracks carry heavy weight for the potential success or fail-

ure of their campaign. Should they research laser weapons to do more damage to aliens? Perhaps looking into the grapple-equipped Skeleton Suit is more important? Should they buy a new sniper rifl e for their sniper? If they do, then their support soldier might not get the improved medkits they need.

Th ese decisions are all tough to make, but tough decisions prevent one thing that would be an awful detriment to a strategy game like this one.

Without these tough decisions, every campaign would be exactly the same. A single campaign lasts anywhere from 20 to 30 hours, or possibly more depending on the diffi culty setting and decisions the player makes. Th e game is made to be replayable, and it shows.

Once the players have begun their base’s operations, they scan for aliens, which opens the other half of the game, the tactical mis-sions.

Players control a squad of one to six soldiers, depending on their preferred sets of equipment and if they’ve bought squad size upgrades.

Th e turn-based missions take on several forms, from UFO landings and crashes, to alien bomb plots or terror attacks. In the be-ginning, even a few basic enemies can really damage a squad, but as research progresses and a player’s soldiers get promotions, new enemies become the challenge. Some of these enemies can do incredible amounts of damage or even take over squad members’ minds, turning them against one another.

Th e game is polished to a high shine and is well executed. Th e challenge in the game is a fairly steady curve, which keeps players on the edge of their seats with tension and uncertainty. Th e PC version of the game is compatible with keyboard and mouse, as well as gamepad. Both work fairly well.

Firaxis learned a lot from their other console-released strategy game, “Sid Meier’s Civilization Revolution” to make XCOM work with a gamepad.

During missions, the player can ro-tate the camera and pan across the area of operations, which means that level designers didn’t have to worry about objects blocking the view of the action.

Sometimes, selecting where to send a soldier is diffi cult because they are in a multi-fl oored structure or are headed toward a ledge.

Changing the camera’s elevation or rota-tion can help, but it feels like a bit more time could have been spent fi xing cursor prob-lems. In the main base, however, everything works smoothly. Selecting a room itself in the world or from the menu at the top of the screen opens that room’s sub-menu to select further options.

For $59.99 on Xbox 360 or PS3, or $49.99 on PC, it’s a fantastic tactical strategy game. XCOM is more focused on single player, so don’t rush to get it to play with friends. It will likely also be on sale for PC on Steam during the service’s annual Christmas sale, so that might be a prime time to purchase.

MetSportsLady Runners step to success

Angelita Fosteramayer1@msudenver.edu

Metro State women’s soccer is success-ful because they practice what head coach Adrianne Almaraz preaches — focus on one game at a time.

The No. 8 lady Roadrunners seven-game winning streak ended at the feet of New Mexico Highlands Oct. 14. Almaraz at-tributes her team’s success to working harder than the other team and playing each game as if it is the most important.

“We don’t look too far down the road,”

Almaraz said. “We need to take care of busi-ness one game at a time.”

One game at a time may be a cliché to some teams, but to the ladies in red and blue, it is more than a motto; it’s the journey to success.

“I think yesterday’s the game could have gone either way, but we worked harder and that’s what put us on top,” senior goalkeeper Jordan Simkins said. “That’s what Adrianne keeps stressing — that we just need to keep working harder together as a team and focus on the game we are playing.”

The RMAC defensive player of the week, Simkins, was referring to the game Oct. 7 when the Roadrunners beat Regis University 2-0.

“It was a huge win for us and we really needed it,” Simkins said. “After tying them earlier this year, it was the one game we were looking forward to winning.”

Junior forward/midfielder Tess Hagen-lock, who leads the Roadrunners in assists, agrees with Simkins about what it takes to have a successful season.

“It’s a very important quality that we have given ourselves — the ability to have a goal and do everything to reach it,” Hagen-lock said. “Coach is very good at reminding us that the little things are important — you need to work hard in this drill, you need to get a good touch in that drill.”

Metro forward Karisa Price leads the team in points and goals scored. The sopho-more’s personal philosophy is in line with her Roadrunner team.

“We have a really talented team and everyone here pushes me every practice to be better,” Price said. “I am really lucky to play

on a team like that.”Price quoted assistant coach Dave Mor-

gan to sum up the teams philosophy: “Don’t care before it’s too late.”

Price explained the philosophy to mean don’t care after you lose or after you do something wrong, but put in the work early and you are going to get the result you want.

Almaraz said that some of the reasons for her team’s success are chemistry and different players stepping up in different mo-ments to impact the team. In the two games against Colorado State-Pueblo and Regis, the lady Runners’ six goals were scored by six players.

“I think it shows how dangerous we can be and that we are not relying on one person to win games for us,” Almaraz said. “Most of the goals against Regis were by two players that came off of the bench. They came in and had an impact on the game.”

Even though the team philosophy is taking one game at a time, it doesn’t mean they haven’t set a goal to achieve beyond the regular season.

“We briefly talked about our goal this year, and that we want to win conference,” Almaraz said. “I think for us, taking it step-by-step is important, and right now we are in conference play — hopefully we maintain where we are at and come out reaching our goal.”

And beyond the RMAC?“Our program has always wanted to get

back to the final four, and to win a national championship,” Almaraz said. “That’s down the road, but I think this team has the capa-bility to go far, if not win it all.”

Runners Wrap-up

Volleyball

MSU Denver women’s volleyball team dropped from No. 20 to No. 23 in the na-tional rankings after going 2-1 on their latest road-trip.

The Roadrunners came from behind Oct. 11 for a 23-25, 25-22, 25-20, 27-25 win on the road against the Colorado State–Pueblo ThunderWolves.

Red-shirt freshman, middle blocker Audri Marrs had a career-high 14 kills, with the help of senior setter Vanessa Gemignani, who tied a career high with 53 set assists.

The lady Runners made a three-hour trip west Oct. 12 to Gunnison to visit the Western State Colorado University Mountaineers. With her seventh double-double of the season, senior outside hitter and defensive specialist, Amy Wong’s 12 kills and 10 digs helped the Roadrunners cruise to a 3-1 set victory.

Metro concluded the road-trip Oct. 13 with a match against No. 24 Adams State University.

ASU won the first two sets and were close to taking the third when Metro pulled together and went on a four-point run to win the set. A couple of three-point runs and another four-point run in the fourth set had Metro going into the fifth and final set with confidence.

To tie the match at 12-12, Wong, with another double-double, made a kill that was protested by ASU for more than a minute. The delay killed the Runners momentum as the Grizzlies took the next three of four points for the win.

The upset put the Roadrunners at 12-7 overall and 7-4 in the Rocky Mountain Ath-letic Conference.

Metro men’s soccer shuts out CCU 4-0 Zee Nwukeznwuke@msudenver.edu

Men’s soccer had a shutout against Colo-rado Christian University for the second time this season.

Th e Roadrunners defeated the Cougars 4-0 Oct. 12 at Auraria Field. Th e win im-proved the Runners overall record to 8-6-0 and 5-5-0 in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference.

“It was a good response from the fi rst weekend,” head coach Ken Parsons said. “We needed to put up a good performance against a team that we had done pretty well against the fi rst time and we knew it was go-ing to be tougher the second time around.”

Th e Roadrunners controlled the tempo of the game. Th e Cougar’s defense was strong, but not strong enough, as the Run-ners were able to fi nd openings and capital-ize on them.

It was junior midfi elder Brendon Hughes who scored fi rst for the Runners in the 18th minute. Hughes got an open shot in front of a congested Cougars goal, but was able to slide the ball past Cougars goalkeeper David Ilgenfritz to give his team a 1-0 lead.

Aft er the Roadrunner’s fi rst goal, they raised their intensity and put more pressure on the Cougars.

With 11 minutes left in the fi rst half the Roadrunner’s scored again. Senior forward Marc Herschberger fi red a shot past the Cougars goalie from the top left of the box to make the score 2-0.

“We came out strong,” Herschberger said. “We were able to possess the ball, pass it around and I think that’s what gave us a lot of the chances that we got.”

Metro ended the fi rst half with a com-fortable 2-0 lead.

It started to rain going into the second half, but the weather didn’t dampen the Roadrunners’ ability to score.

“Th e weather was crazy. It was nice to start and then it started raining,” Hughes said. It was quite bothersome to the players on the fi eld.

Th e second half closely resembled the fi rst, as the Roadrunners kept the pressure on the Cougars and increased their lead. Fift een minutes into the second half, Metro scored their third goal. Hughes scored his second goal of the game off a pass from freshman forward Danny Arrubla. It was Hughes’ sixth goal of the season.

Th e Roadrunners continued their domi-nance. Th e fi nishing blow was from junior midfi elder Andy Lopez. With 16 minutes left in the game, Lopez scored off of a corner kick making the score 4-0. Freshman mid-

fi elder Pierce Galan gave him a great pass as he headed the ball into the goal.

“It was a real good performance,” Par-sons said. “I knew it was going to be a little bit more diffi cult the second time around. We beat Colorado Christian 7-0 the fi rst time and I’m a fi rm believer that you can learn more from a game by losing than you can from winning.”

Th e Roadrunners were poised as they ended the game up 4-0. Th ey shut down the Cougars and maintained their lead through-out the entire game.

Runners move up from No. 16 to No. 8Maranda Rysermryser@msudenver.edu

Clinching yet another win, the women’s soccer team claimed a 5-0 victory over Colo-rado Christian University Oct. 12 at Auraria Field.

The win adds to the MSU Denver’s seven-game winning streak, and improves their overall record to 10-2-1 and 7-1-1 in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference.

“We kept our competitive spirit through-out the game and came out and showed the team that we were playing, that we are Metro State and that’s what kept us on a winning streak, which we needed,” junior forward/midfielder Tess Hagenlock said.

Leading off the scoring, 20 minutes into the game, Hagenlock headed the ball into the net off a cross from junior defender Brit-tany Cito. The Roadrunners scored quickly again at 24:29, when sophomore forward Karisa Price found the net while she dribbled through the legs of her defender and scored past a diving goalie. The Roadrunners found themselves with a 2-0 lead going into halftime.

Hagenlock scored her second goal of the game off a ricochet shot that was initially blocked by Cougars goalie Caitlyn Moses, putting the Runners up 3-0 at 60:19 in the game.

Metro goalie Jordan Simkins faced two

shots on goal and saved both of them, while CCU’s goal was hammered with 14 shots on goal and could only save nine.

“We had the ball 90 percent of the time, and when you have the ball most of the time you are going to be more dangerous,” head coach Adrianne Almaraz said.

In the last 15 minutes of the game, senior forward Aubrey Fondy contributed with a goal, shot from the deep right corner of the field. Only one minute later, junior mid-fielder Nicole Pollak scored the final goal of the game when she headed the ball into the net off a free kick from redshirt freshman midfielder Camilla Rodrigues, giving the Runners the 5-0 shutout win.

“I think what made us successful today is what makes us successful overall and that’s playing like a team and always pushing to get better,” Price said.

The Roadrunners are now No. 8 in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America NCAA Division II, moving up from a No. 16 ranking at the beginning of the season.

“The big thing is that different players are contributing, different players are stepping up and they are playing as a team and it is fun to watch and they are building, which is great,” Almaraz said. The Roadrunners winning streak ended Oct. 14, losing 2-1 to New Mexico High-

lands in Las Vegas, N.M. The Roadrunners fell to 10-3-1 overall and 7-2-1 in the RMAC, while NMHU improved to 5-7-2 overall and 3-5-2 in the RMAC.

Club baseball player fi nds that he still has itLight Rail. School. Light Rail. Ask my

roommate (mom) what’s for dinner. Home-work. Sleep. Do it again tomorrow.

I had become the defi nition of routine. As a transfer student to MSU Denver from a party school and town in Arizona, I had re-luctantly grown up and come home. I came to school, went to class, and went home. Sure, that’s what I needed to be doing but I couldn’t tell you the name of one person I met in my fi rst year going to school in Denver. I hated it. I felt like I didn’t know a single person on the entire Auraria Campus. When fall semester started, I kept getting emails to tryout for the Metro State Club Baseball Team. I had brushed off the fi rst

few, but it stuck in the back of my head for some reason.

I played baseball in high school and then

coached the junior varsity and varsity teams for the past three seasons. Now I was in a pickle. I have been around the game enough to know a lot about the sport. But playing again is a diff erent story. It had been fi ve years since I ran off the fi eld with cleats on, and I missed that sound.

Part of me wanted to prove to myself — that I still had the ability and wanted to prolong my love aff air with the game. Most of me just wanted to break routine, do something aft er school and have something to look forward to other than school and meatloaf.

I showed up to tryouts at North High School. I put on my baseball-pants and for-

got my belt. Trust me, I didn’t need the belt for my pants to fi t. An elastic band would have worked best, but I didn’t look like a baseball player. My confi dence was shot be-fore I even left the dugout and I couldn’t hide that under my hat.

I am fatter, slower and way older at 23 than these 18-year-olds. I had no business being out there. With a wad of tobacco leaves in my left cheek to calm my nerves, I sprinted to my old position — shortstop — fi nally feeling comfortable for the fi rst time. I fi elded a few balls and felt encouraged. My hands were quicker than expected, my feet were in good position and my throws to fi rst base were strong and accurate. All that was left was hitting.

Finally, I cracked a smile. What was I so worried about? Th is is baseball, the same game I have played since I knew how to walk. Th e fi eld was, and is, my escape. Noth-ing could bother me out there. I was fi nally playing again. Th at’s all that mattered when I dug my spikes into the batter’s box.

I spat on my batting-gloves and squeezed the wooden bat like I was keeping it from going somewhere. We each got fi ve pitches so every swing was crucial. Th e fi rst pitch came center-cut — crack — if fl ew far and bounced off the right fi eld fence. I felt like I was better than I ever was — a good whack of the bat will do that for you.

I got a call the next day and made the team. It’s been a little more than a month since then and we’ve played eight games. We are 5-3 — lost our fi rst series to University of Northern Colorado, won four in row against Fort Lewis and DU and split games this past weekend with University of Colorado-Colorado Springs. We are averaging more than eight runs a game at the right time. We will be hosting Texas Tech for a three-game series from Oct. 20 and Oct. 21 at Long Lake Ranch fi elds in Arvada.

I know how good I was at one point, and what potential I have to make the team better. And, I am fi nally getting in shape. As a team, we push each other to get better at practice and during games, helping each other out with our approaches at the plate and diff erent ways to improve. Th ere are no hard feelings, no egos. Everyone just wants to be the best they can be on the ball fi eld. Everyone takes a turn on the bench and we become our replacement’s biggest fans. Th at’s the only way it works; we become friends and understand that every person on the team has a role. Th at is my defi nition of a club sport.

At times, we look like the “Bad News Bears” and other times we look like a varsity team. Baseball has brought us together as one club, one team, and if baseball were a person it would be my best friend. Th is month, club baseball has introduced me to 29 real friends who share the same love for it.

Make sure you don’t have any library books that are overdue. You never know … and library � nes blow.

An epic karate battle is likely to take place on a lawn on campus this week. Don’t be afraid to tie your belt around your head and join the fun.

Good karma will befall you if next Tuesday a� ernoon you purchase 14 caramel macchiato from Starbucks and bring them to Tivoli 313.

While walking through the supermarket you may � nd a talking � sh. You should really start getting more sleep. Fish can’t talk.

While venturing through downtown this weekend you may encounter an overwhelming number of undead looking civilians. Do not, I repeat, do not be alarmed. � e Zombie Crawl is this weekend.

If this week you � nd yourself on a boat you must resist the urge to “Titanic” o� the front of it. And you should really resist the urge to sing Celine Dion or � e Lonely Island.

Check your mail (or rather the sky for owls) reli-giously this week. You may receive a delayed letter declar-ing your acceptance to Hogwarts School of Witchcra� and Wizardry. Lucky you!

While riding the bus, you are likely to be doing some last minute cramming for a test with your headphones in blasting some tunes. Try to choose a band that isn’t too groovy, so you don’t miss your stop and exam.

While taking a break during some late-night study-ing, you are likely to create a new meme that is going to be-come the next Internet sensation. Unfortunately, Facebook likes do not translate to real-life fame.

During a break, chances are you will � nd yourself in the library were you will spontaneously buy a burrito from its café. Your life will be changed.

While attending a sporting event you will not be able to resist buying cotton candy. A� er your childhood love is rekindled you will overdraw your bank account with the massive amount of cotton candy you will buy in the next week.

A� er being extremely sleep deprived and hyped up on ca� eine you are likely to break into an impulsive dance number a� er your last class. Break it down.
