Leadership Corner
- Since 1948, the Conference on World Affairs has been relevant to our times, the community and our university. Our vision at CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº is to be a leader in addressing the humanitarian, social and technological challenges of the 21st century, and this conference certainly personifies that.
- Time is one of the most precious commodities we have. The Office of Faculty Affairs, in an effort to promote the accomplishments of the faculty and look for ways to save time, has launched CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº Elements (CUBE) and created a new version of the Faculty Report of Professional Activities (FRPA).
- Like the cycles of the seasons, the university has its own rhythms. With the beginning of spring, I’m looking ahead to our next academic year.
- CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº Today spoke with Chris Ewing, assistant vice chancellor for the department of Planning Design & Construction, to learn more about the ongoing Space Utilization and Optimization Initiative to best support students and the university’s mission.
- Thank you: two simple words we often don’t say enough to each other. I want to spend this column letting each and every one of you know how much I appreciate you, your talents and what you bring to this university.
- The Office of Undergraduate Education (UE) focuses on first-year academic programs, such as Residential Academic Programs (RAPs), first-year seminars and Freshman Interest Groups (FIGs), as the foundation for student success.
- CIRES Director Waleed Abdalati addresses concerns regarding the Trump Administration's proposed budget cuts to one of the government's premier climate science agencies, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
- As you may be aware, the White House on Wednesday night rescinded previous guidance contained within a May 13, 2016, Dear Colleague Letter regarding transgender rights at K-12 and higher education campuses. This announcement does not alter existing federal or Colorado state law that provides discrimination protection for transgender people, nor will it change campus policies.
- When we have a chance to shape change and guide this inevitable process toward strategic goals of our choosing, we do ourselves and our successors a huge service.
- Campus leadership has begun the conversation of reframing the three campus touchstones (student success, reputation and alternate revenue) into a series of ideas that more holistically describe our goals as a university. Provost Moore updates the campus on some of the activities underway to support these goals.
