Carlson and his wife, Erica Carpenter, have a portfolio called AREA C projects, which includes this piece that was commissioned by the University and Colorado Creative Industries. Nick Hollibaugh fabricated the piece and installed it with Carlson.

COMIC ILLUSTRATION BY SCOTTY POWELL @SCOTTYSSEUS Thursday, December 12, 2019 Rocky Mountain Collegian| 15 16 | Sports | Thursday, December 12, 2019 Addazio >> from page 1

Addazio is a product of Meyer’s coaching tree, having served on his staff from 2005-10 at the University of Florida as a tight ends coach from 2005-06, assistant head coach/of- fensive line coach from 2006-07 and the additional role of offensive coor- dinator from 2009-10. Addazio inked a five-year con- tract that rewards a base salary of $1.5 million in the first year with a $50,000 increase each year of the contract. There is also a guaranteed portion of the contract by the Rams: Addazio has a buyout if he chooses to leave. Addazio and the University are finalizing the remaining terms of the deal, but it will be available when completed and signed. Like Bobo, it didn’t take Addazio long to find a new job. The former BC play-caller was fired by the Ea- gles at the beginning of December before being named the next coach of CSU football. After his firing, sev- eral of the Eagles’ former players that played under Addazio have come out of the woodwork and voiced their criticism of their former coach.

“Steve Addazio is a great recruiter, a better coach, an even better leader and most importantly, a better person. I am very excited for the Colorado State family and the future of Ram football.” New Colorado State University head football coach Steve Addazio points to the fi eld during a Boston College game against North Carolina State BRAD BATES University Oct. 6, 2018.

OLYMPICS Chris Helwick still hopes Olympic dreams come true in 2020

By Connor Kane @CSUCollegian

At one point, Chris Helwick thought of his job as an economic developer for the city of Greeley as a lifetime career. But after years of refl ection, the 34-year-old re- tired decathlete quit and moved to Fort Collins to be a volunteer track coach at Colorado State Universi- ty. This was just the start of his comeback journey to the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. After missing the 2008 and 2012 Olympics by just a few spots, Helwick thought his time was up. But by 2018, Helwick’s dream of becoming an Olympian was more prevalent than ever, and there was no way that he couldn’t give it one more chance. Delusion- al? Maybe. Or maybe it was just pure determination. Helwick’s journey began when he met the Greeley Central High Wildcats track and fi eld coach, Marty Neibauer. “He was always looking for ath- letes who he could usher into the decathlon just because he loved it Former University of Tennessee graduate and track and fi eld decathlete Chris Helwick practices at the Jack Christiansen Memorial Track at so much,” Helwick said. “He was a Colorado State University.

FOOD & DINING How to make a 4-course meal in your dorm room

By Scotty Powell @scottysseus

Of all the marvelous ma- chinery introduced in the 20th century — personal computers, the internet, digital watches — the microwave oven is by far the most impactful. How did we live without it? Did we cook our hot pockets over a fi re? Although pretentious tradi- tionalists and some members of the vintage-obsessed “it sounds better on vinyl” crowd may still hold that conventional ovens are superior, the microwave is the clear king of household cooking mechanisms. So what if it doesn’t cook your food all the way through? So what if it causes one half of your TV dinner to stay frozen solid while it zaps the oth- er half into pure charcoal? Try heating up a Jimmy Dean break- fast sandwich in a black kettle, and then we’ll talk. Of course, there are those who argue that, majestic as it is, there are still some things that you simply cannot cook in a mi- crowave. But never underestimate the power of the internet to shut these dissenters up. If you’re looking for a quick but fancy-enough-for-your-very- strained-college-lifestyle holiday feast, here are some recipes for a complete four-course meal that can be prepared and cooked right Summit Hall is located on the south side of the Colorado State University campus and houses the Natural Resources Sustainability and Outdoor in your dorm room microwave.
