As he returns to CSU for Homecoming this weekend, Brady O’Neill can boast of a career of creating moments for sports fans – first as CAM the Ram as an undergrad liberal-arts student, then as Dinger, the Colorado Rockies’ dinosaur mascot, and now as an assistant director of marketing for the Rockies. The first in his family to earn a university degree, Brady graduated in 2005 with a bachelor’s degree in speech communication and completed the coursework and certifications needed to teach theater, speech and English in Colorado.   “I know everyone looks back on their college life with a glowing nostalgia, but I really was given this group of people that I belonged to,” Brady said. Even now, he experiences “bubbles of nostalgia” – memories attached not just to games, but also to the people with whom he experienced them.   Read about Brady’s journey - from The Nutcracker to the Clark Building and the sidelines of Hughes Stadium to the diamond and now the marketing offices of Coors Field — via CSU SOURCE: https://source.colostate.edu/from-cam-to-dinger-this-alumnus-found-his-place-in-a-mascot-suit/ Image 1: Brady O’Neill (SPCM BA 2005), dressed as CAM the Ram during his time as a CSU student, poses with his mother at Moby Arena.

More than 700 people packed @thelyriccinema this week for a special advance screening of THE WEIGHT, a 2026 Sundance Film Festival selection, with director Padraic McKinley and actor Julia Jones joining us in person to share the film—and the stories behind it—with Northern Colorado audiences.   Beyond the screening, the night brought students, filmmakers, creative professionals and our community together—creating connections and celebrating the future of Colorado’s creative community.   The evening was presented by Sundance Film Festival and The Lyric, in partnership with ACT Human Rights Film Festival, Best of Fests Colorado, CSU’s College of Liberal Arts and Visit Fort Collins, with thanks to Vertical Entertainment.   And there’s even more ahead. With Sundance Film Festival coming to Boulder in 2027, Colorado is entering an exciting new chapter for independent film.   We’re proud to be building that future—one screening, one conversation and one creative connection at a time.   Thank you, Fort Collins, for showing up. We’ll see you at the movies. 🍿 taken in The Lyric by @csucommstudies
