How the university has adjusted to protect students from COVID-19.
With the semester underway and students back on campus, here are some of the protections Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder is implementing for faculty, staff and students: Before the first day of class in August, everyone took a required online course about
Cycling, yoga, mediation and more available through Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ’s rec center.
On what should have been the first week back for students and faculty after spring break, Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder remained deserted in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Fifty years ago, on April 22, 1970, Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder became the first university in the nation to open a student-led Environmental Center. The day coincided with the nation’s inaugural Earth Day.
Since 2013, weekly Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ cooking classes — Ralphie’s Cooking Basics — have aimed to teach students the fundamentals of meal preparing.Â
Record-breaking Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ summer heat, including the hottest temperature ever recorded in the state didn’t delay winter at Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ. Boulder saw more than 26 inches of snow in October and nearly 30 in November, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
