ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½

We are shocked and saddened by the violent attack that took place in ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ this afternoon. Our hearts go out to all of those impacted by this heinous crime. Hate and acts of violence have absolutely no place in our community.

While the ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ continues to evaluate relevant executive orders and other decisions by the federal government that may impact higher education, we also continue to find opportunities to meaningfully communicate the impacts of how these orders may impact societal health, the economy, competitiveness and higher education at large.

The ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ has paused its Critical Needs Hiring Program (CNHP) out of an abundance of caution and to ensure there are no ongoing gaps between university policy and the program’s implementation

The ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ is evaluating relevant executive orders in coordination with CU system, other CU campuses and higher education groups.

The CU ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ Police Department, in conjunction with the Division of Student Affairs, is investigating flyers that were thrown off an interior balcony at Norlin Library on Friday, Dec. 13. The flyers simulated an evacuation notice of the building.

The ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ won’t speculate on what changes may occur under the new administration.

In the early morning hours of Nov. 1, several buildings on the CU ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ campus were vandalized. The antisemitic messages contained in the vandalism violate the university’s policies on free expression and Campus Use of University Facilities, as well as Colorado law.

The CU ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ administration may send communications and take positions on issues, incidents or other situations that affect core functions of the university.

CU ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ has been working closely with our conference partners as well as the NCAA throughout the settlement negotiations in the pending antitrust cases.

The issue of divestment of the University of Colorado’s financial assets is a complex one, and it falls under the purview of CU system leadership and the Board of Regents.
