On a cold morning on the side of a mountain at Purgatory Resort, a small group of young adults began their day suspended in midair, participating in what is commonly known as highlining at the Paradise Highline Gathering from Oct.18-20.  

Freshman packed the lobby of the Student Union Building Sept. 25 awaiting their free Purgatory Resort ski passes given as part of a marketing partnership between Fort Lewis College and Mountain Capital Partners. 

Fort Lewis College students protested white supremecy after two men, accompanied by a boy, made pro-slavery comments outside of Reed Library the morning of Sept. 25.

The men made efforts to engage students in conversation, Julie Love, associate vice president of student affairs, said. She said she was told that the conversation topics varied from eternal life, to slavery and the economy.

The 31st Annual Durango Cowboy Poetry Gathering kicked off October 3, with the 12th Annual Cowboy Theatre— a western variety show with a twist.

The Fort Lewis College Native American Center has organized numerous events for Indigenous Peoples’ Day 2019 intended to celebrate different cultural perspectives and raise awareness for the Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women movement.
