CU Boulder students now have the option of purchasing daily parking permits for the discounted rate of $5 per day.
To purchase the $5 daily permits, students will need to log in to the online parking portal. Permits will be available in select lots and the total number of available permits will vary day-to-day based on demand. Daily permits may be purchased up to a week in advance.
Tom McGann, director of Parking Services, said the discounted daily permit provides a flexible, affordable option for students who commute to campus. “This will be especially helpful for students who bring a car to campus only a few days a week, or who need a parking option for exams,” he said.
The University Libraries will expand hours starting Dec. 9, for the Norlin Commons and Norlin Library in advance of finals week, allowing the libraries to increase student support leading up to and during final exams.

Tickets still remain for the University of Colorado men’s basketball team’s exhibition game against the Nebraska Cornhuskers on Sunday, Oct. 30, in which all ticket proceeds will go toward survivors and first responders of last December’s devastating Marshall Fire in Boulder County.
With tipoff scheduled for 4 p.m., and gates opening at 3 p.m., the exhibition will be the first opportunity for fans to see the 2022–23 Buffaloes while also contributing to a great cause.
Tickets are $20 for chairback seating, $15 for bench seating and just $5 for students. Proceeds will go directly to the Boulder County Wildfire Fund. Tickets are available online or by visiting the ticket office located in the Champions Center. Survivors and first responders can claim complimentary tickets to the game by clicking here.
The exhibition is a collaboration between the CU Boulder Department of Athletics and the Community Foundation Boulder County, which has been working closely with government, business and nonprofit partners to address the immediate, short- and long-term needs of the community following the Marshall Fire.
Many survivors are still struggling to recover, and this exhibition game will put much-needed funds in the hands of those who need it, while providing survivors and first responders an exciting afternoon of college basketball.
The 2022–23 Buffaloes look to use this season to continue to build on their recent success, which includes four-straight 20-win seasons and a pair of Pac-12 Conference top-four finishes.
Labels aren’t a priority for the creative directors behind the College of Music’s popular Pendulum New Music series.
The live performance/forum for new works, which will officially change its name from Pendulum to CU Boulder SoundWorks in January 2023, doesn’t place the same emphasis on formal categorization that obsesses many music fans and scholars alike. According to Egemen Kesikli, Pendulum/SoundWorks’ newly appointed artistic director, the focus of the concert series is more about inclusion, exploration and innovation than it is about classification.
During maintenance that affects the portals, such as the maintenance scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 23, remember you can directly access canvas.colorado.edu and some other services that are provided through the portals.
