Programs

Chancellor Tony Frank - July 28th - Lincoln Center
This Wednesday we welcome Dr. Tony Frank, the Chancellor of the Colorado State University System (CSU, CSU Pueblo, CSU Global). Tony will outline CSU Spur, a new non-degree granting public campus in Denver, starting in January 2022. 
 
"CSU Spur campus will be created by a university but will offer an education open to anyone and everyone. But Spur is more than a physical location, it’s a hub — a network — to connect people across the state, region, and world" www.csuspur.org

For our Zoom meeting of July 21st, 2021, Stacey Baumgarn, the Campus Energy Coordinator in Facilities Management at CSU, presented an overview of the ongoing efforts within the CSU community for improved sustainability for the future.
