While most understand the value of a college education, the costs of attaining one can seem daunting. That’s why CU is helping Colorado students and families reduce the cost of earning a degree in a variety of ways.

As we celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Title IX this summer, it’s a good time to reflect on how this groundbreaking law has shaped higher education and CU, and consider where we need to go in the next 50 years.

CU plays a critical role for our state, nation and world. We educate well-rounded students who bring highly skilled talent to the workforce. Our faculty conduct research that tackles some of society’s most vexing problems. Their work also improves our state, our quality of life and sometimes it even saves lives. And we develop the entrepreneurs of tomorrow, who deliver big ideas that drive innovation and boost the economy.

Everyone has an important role in advancing our desire to be a university that represents Colorado’s diversity of people and opinions. It starts with listening to and learning from each other. Listening with openness and without assumptions. Listening with compassion. Listening with understanding that each person’s journey is different from our own. The simple art of purposeful and intentional listening – and valuing other’s perspectives - is a vital step toward change.

Outreach to communities statewide helps us better serve Colorado.

As we travel the state demonstrating CU’s impact, we want to hear from you.
