Are you a faculty or staff member who's received a Fulbright award to begin in 2017–18? Please let us know about it for our annual CU Boulder Today announcement. Historically, CU Boulder faculty and staff members each year have received a variety of awards, including from Fulbright's scholar and seminar programs, and we like to share the good news with campus.

Please contact Deputy Editor Elizabeth Lock via the submit-a-story form. 

The RTD CollegePass transit pass is suspended until Aug. 1, 2017, for students who are not enrolled in summer terms, but are returning for the fall semester. To keep their pass working over the summer, affected students can visit the Buff OneCard office in C4C or call 303-492-0355 and purchase an “optional summer transit pass” for $85. Once the pass is purchased it will take 24-72 hours for bus and train card readers to recognize the status update. The optional pass program is also available for residents of family housing.

For those who are enrolled and paying mandatory fees for a summer term(s), no further action needs to be taken to keep their passes active.

Please email buspass@colorado.edu for further information or questions.
