When most people think of a Classics course, they might picture a professor lecturing on Roman architecture or students studying ancient Greek texts. At CC, however, things are done a bit differently. From Denver Nuggets games and touring on-campus entertainment venues to trying on gladiator gear, students in Roman Sports and Entertainment<\/em> spend the block connecting Roman sports and entertainment to the modern world, as well as analyzing its social-political context.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

In this course, Dr. Sanjaya Thakur, Judson Bemis Professor of Humanities and Professor of Classics, ensures that students both learn the important history of the Roman world, as well as connect that history to forms of entertainment and sport today. <\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

Students in Roman Sports and Entertainment <\/em>learn about gladiatorial games, beast hunts, mock naval battles, and chariot racing, as well as theatrical entertainments, like ballet and pantomime. They study the similarities between Roman entertainment and modern-world entertainment. Students also consider the social status of the entertainers in the Roman world, and how that impacted the perception of them and the entertainment in general.<\/div>\n

Climate, Environment, and Sustainability at CC<\/h1>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
Want to dive into a campus culture where sustainability isn\u2019t just a buzzword, but a way of life? At CC, our approach to climate and sustainability resonates with the dynamism of the Rockies themselves. It\u2019s not about sitting in lectures and jotting down theories. Here, sustainability is woven into the very fabric of our daily experience.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

The CC website is now home to a new resource for all things pertaining to campus sustainability. Stay up-to-date with programs, plans, and news regarding how CC and the extended community continues to care for and protect our environment.<\/div>\n

Three Colorado College and two University of Northern Colorado students joined their professors, Dr. Guanyi Yang, CC Assistant Professor of Economics and Business, and Dr. Mark Eiswerth \u201982, Professor of Economics at UNC and Visiting Professor at CC, on a three-day trip to the Great Sand Dunes National Park to research dark sky tourism, the practice of traveling to locations without light pollution in order to see the night sky.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

“I have been very concerned about the negative impacts of night light pollution for quite some time now,\u201d says Eiswerth, who majored in Economics at CC. \u201cEven aside from potential human health and ecological impacts, it is very sad to me that we, as well as our children and grandchildren, are not able to see stars at night in the same way that our parents and grandparents may have been able to.\u201d<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

The idea for this project started with the State of the Rockies Project<\/a>, which works to enhance the understanding of and address socio-environmental challenges in the Rocky Mountain West. The survey asked participants how important it is to provide opportunities for people to see stars at night without light pollution. Almost 70% of respondents said it was important. The State of the Rockies Project then reached out to Yang and asked him to lead one of the research teams investigating the importance of dark sky conservation, which the State of the Rockies Project sponsored.<\/div>\n

The College Experience (CXP) is returning to CC on February 10, in Cornerstone Screening Room. The College Experience, funded by the El Pomar Foundation, helps scholars explore different college campuses for free. This allows the Pre-Collegiate Program to hold these college visits throughout the Pikes Peak region so that students can make informed decisions about where they want to pursue postsecondary education. Please be aware there will be additional people on campus.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n
