The city of Boulder has launched a question-and-answer page around CU Boulder South, addressing flood design and key elements of the annexation agreement with CU.

You can also complete a questionnaire to rank the issues in order of importance to you­–valuable information for the city and CU Boulder.

Key dates in May include a planning board meeting on May 7 and a community information session on May 20. Get details.

The CU Book Store has extended the deadline for textbook rental check-in to June 1. Rental books may be returned via UPS with a prepaid shipping label. Questions? Contact assist@cubookstore.com. Free shipping labels can be accessed at cubookstore.com/rental through June 1.

If you purchased a textbook and would like to sell it back, the CU Book Store will offer textbook sellback when the physical store reopens. Information will be found here when details are announced.

Do you post events on the campus events calendar? The tool is updated with the following new features:

• The new “experience” field allows you to mark the event as virtual. Selecting virtual will present additional fields for entering dial-in instructions, a livestream URL and/or livestream embed code.
• In the “status” field, you can mark an event as live, canceled, postponed or sold out. When an event status is changed to canceled, for example, the cancellation is automatically indicated in the event title, so you do not have to manually make the edit.

Additionally, as a security best practice, Zoom meeting links should not be posted in calendar events unless the Zoom meeting has security settings suggested by OIT. The recommendation is to have interested participants register in advance to receive the Zoom meeting link. (Web Express users can create a webform to set up an event registration.)

Additional pointers on virtual events

• Any public-facing virtual event should include closed captioning to align with campus policies (PDF) (see section 4, page 3).
• If you need help with coordinating captioning, explore OIT’s “request captioning” info. 
• If you are using Zoom, you can also visit Zoom’s closed captioning third party integration information from Zoom page. You’ll need to get a Zoom webinar set up to use this functionality.  

The Fulbright program is the U.S. government’s flagship program for international educational exchange, and CU Boulder has been a top-producing institution for U.S. Fulbright student grants. 

Watch a short video, and then contact Deborah Viles to learn how you can apply for a Fulbright grant to do overseas study/research or to be an English teaching assistant overseas. These grants are for any student who will have at least a bachelor's degree by the time the grant starts and won’t yet have completed a PhD. Graduate students often apply to the Fulbright to fund fieldwork abroad.
