Here are a few things that make our Global Seminars unique from our other programs:

• Take courses in a small group setting with a CU professor
• Experience your coursework first-hand by using local sites as your classroom
• Many options to fit your busy summer schedule (including programs during Maymester and Augmester)
• Focus on a specific topic of interest to you
• Spend time with and get to know a small group of CU Boulder students

An intra-university transfer (IUT) allows current undergraduate students to change, add or drop a degree program involving two different colleges/schools/programs within CU Boulder.

The CU Restorative Justice (CURJ) facilitator training starts Feb. 23.

As a facilitator, you will create an open and safe space for student and community representatives by being an unbiased, leading figure during the restorative justice process, which helps to address the relationship between victims, offenders and the community in a way that repairs the impacts of an incident, holds the offender accountable for their actions and builds community. Additionally, you will be constructively keeping everyone on track to restore ties with the community and help mend any harm.

The training educates students, faculty, staff and community members on restorative justice processes and facilitating dialogue. You will come away from the training with knowledge on:

• Learning to address harm in a restorative justice process
• Facilitation skills and active listening
• People-centered restorative justice, role plays and DEI training

Sign up for the training, or email curj@colorado.edu with any questions.
