The following letter to students is from Chief Wendy Rich-Goldschmidt, Colorado State University Police Department and Jody Donovan, Dean of Students:
Dear Students,
We’re all proud to be Ram fans and look forward to the Rocky Mountain Showdown game in Denver on Saturday.
The following information will help you prepare for the big game. As you enjoy the game, please remember the behavior of CSU fans reflects upon the university we all love. Here’s our opportunity to demonstrate how great CSU students really are.
If you go to Sports Authority Field for the game, the tailgating and visitor rules for the stadium are online.
Please note:
The CSU vs. CU rivalry is a long tradition, which means that fans of all ages will be with you in the stands, including children who will hear you and watch you during the game (just think, this could be your grandma or little brother or sister sitting by you!).
Keep in mind that your actions in Denver can affect your standing as a CSU student. Names of students contacted by Denver police at the game and in the parking lot will be forwarded to CSU and those students also will undergo a review for disciplinary action from the university.
We know the majority of CSU students will represent CSU well, but keep in mind:
In town, if you are hosting a party, use CSU’s party registration system. You can sign up to get a phone call from police if neighbors complain about the party before police visit your home and issue a ticket. This can help you to avoid a $1,000 fine and misdemeanor noise violation charge.
If your party starts to get out of hand, call the police. If you’re attending a party that appears to be escalating into something bad, leave the area.
We know CSU students have excellent character. Thanks for doing your part to make CSU a great place.
Thank you,
Chief Wendy Rich-Goldschmidt, Colorado State University Police Department Jody Donovan, Dean of Students
