University Statements
We are shocked and saddened by the violent attack that took place in °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï 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 °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï 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 °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï 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 °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï is evaluating relevant executive orders in coordination with CU system, other CU campuses and higher education groups.
The CU °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï 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 °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï 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 °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï 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 °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï administration may send communications and take positions on issues, incidents or other situations that affect core functions of the university.
CU °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï 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.Â
