The University of Colorado Faculty and Staff Newsletter is your online source for systemwide information that can help you make decisions, understand external forces affecting the university, and make connections across the diverse enterprise that is the University of Colorado.

We appreciate the comments we have received from faculty and staff—both positive and constructive—and look forward to gathering more input on how we can make this newsletter a valuable source of information that will strengthen the CU community. Beginning with today's issue, your Web-based communiqué will be posted on a weekly basis.

You can provide feedback at newsletter@cu.edu. To write about topics of interest to the CU community for submission as a letter to the editor or a guest op-ed piece, please see our policy below, and send to the same address, noting you are submitting for publication.
