Welcome to the College of Liberal Arts at Colorado State University

We are located in Fort Collins, where the Rocky Mountains rise from the Great Plains, but the planet is our campus.

  1. We perform concerts in South Korea, spend a Semester at Sea, and study abroad in the Czech Republic and Spain.
  2. We go to New Orleans on Alternative Spring Break to do post-Katrina clean-up.
  3. We analyze media messages in the United States, gender-based wage inequality in China, and environmental politics around the world.
  4. We study the epistemology of the Pre-Columbian Nahua people of Mesoamerica and search for human origins in Uzbekistan.
  5. We host a world-reknowned international poster exhibition in Fort Collins and investigate freedom of the press in Latin America.
  6. We evaluate fair trade practices in global food networks and support democracy in our local communities through the Center for Public Deliberation.

Wherever we are, our students, faculty, and alumni are committed to the search for viable and ethical solutions to the many challenges humans face, to the inspiration of the human spirit, and to the well-being of the human community.  Our goal is to make a difference.

Binh Danh’s new body of work, “Life, Times and Matter of the Swamp,” brings together his chlorophyll prints, artifacts from the popular press that both reference the war in Vietnam and the current conflict, letters, photographs, death announcements, and references to the comic book character “Swamp Thing” to weave a story that indelibly ties these times together. At the core of the installation are Danh’s chlorophyll prints of the faces of the Vietnam dead, drawn from the pages of the 1969 Life magazine.
