A new recordkeeping and administrative fee structure for the University of Colorado 401(a) Mandatory Retirement Plan, CU 403(b) Voluntary Retirement Plan and Student Employee Retirement Plan (SERP) will debut on Oct. 1.
This change reduces overall fees paid by CU faculty and staff by nearly 50%. The fixed-dollar, per-participant fee structure ensures each plan participant pays a fair, reasonable cost for the plan services provided.
Each participant will pay a single flat fee, based on their total account balance in all their CU retirement plan accounts. Fees will range from $0 to $186 annually.
As we increase our on-campus presence, and once again strive to reach our campus zero waste goal, a habit worth reviving is that of properly sorting our recyclables, compost and waste. Facilities Management is pleased to offer a new outreach program that you and your colleagues will find engaging, fun and highly informative.
For groups of 4–12, we’ll start with a brief presentation, followed by some mock recycling (where you are guaranteed to learn something you didn’t know before). Then we will take you on a tour of the on-campus recycling facility, do some Q&As and hand out some sweet sustainable CU-branded swag.
What better way to spend an hour? Round up your campus colleagues, reach out to recycling@colorado.edu, and we will get you on the schedule.

Join our candlelight research study: At Home Circadian Rhythm Assessment.
The purpose of the study is to examine circadian rhythms in the home environment under typical home lighting conditions versus under candlelight conditions after sunset. This work will have important implications for the development of strategies to measure circadian rhythms outside of the laboratory and how evening light exposure influences circadian timing.
We are looking for men and women, ages 18-65, to participate in an at-home monitoring research study that lasts approximately one week, with a total of two short visits at the Sleep and Chronobiology Laboratory at CU Boulder.
Compensation up to $250.
