In this episode of the Rocky Mountain Review, Tyler Weatherwax reports campus news with election results for the ASCSU presidential race, which marks the first time in decades since a student candidate served back-to-back terms. Lee Zimpel goes over local news on an important Fort Collins City Council meeting where some of the city’s top issues were discussed–from the PSD’s consolidation plans to a ceasefire resolution for Gaza. Weatherwax explains KCSU’s annual punk rock festival, Fools Fest.
Then, Zimpel covers national news on a Colorado bill that aims to regulate a controversial, yet important police physical restraint technique. Kaleb Allen delivers the week’s updates for CSU sports. The episode wraps up with the weekend weather forecast ahead of Monday’s solar eclipse.
