The Buff Bulletin Board, a listing of campus announcements, is a service of Campus Communications.
All faculty on nine-month contracts, whether they have selected the academic year pay schedule or the 12-month pay schedule, are encouraged to use the contract calculator to calculate their monthly pay for the academic year and be prepared for pay fluctuations. For additional information and guidance for faculty, visit the Academic Affairs website.
Friday, May 30, is the deadline for fall master's graduates to update their diploma name or address in Buff Portal.
University of Colorado faculty on a contract have the option to choose to update their contract payment schedule for the 2025–26 academic year between May 1 and July 11.
During campus portal maintenance, which is next scheduled for Sunday, May 11, you can still access Canvas and some other campus services through direct links (e.g., canvas.colorado.edu).
Interested in gaining or acquiring cell culture experience using stem cells? Curious about 3D models like organoids, neural cultures, and want to know how to maintain these? Are you wondering how you can use genomic editing systems to modify your cells?
CU Boulder’s Stem Cell Research and Technology Resource Center is the perfect resource for all your cell culture needs. We invite you to explore the workshops we will be holding throughout the year and hope you join us!
Summer 2025 operating hours for the Boulder campus will be 7:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m., effective Monday, May 12, through Friday, Aug. 15.
On Sunday, Aug. 17, the Boulder campus will return to its regular operating hours of 8 a.m.–5 p.m.
The standard operating hours are also core business hours for student-, employee- and customer-facing services/offices. Offices that are student-, employee- or customer-facing should attempt to maintain a consistent schedule allowing for in-person services to be provided particularly during periods or hours of high demand.
CU Boulder undergraduates looking for funded, team-based research opportunities this summer and next academic year can browse UROP's funded "open opportunities" and apply to participate now.

Parking Services is beta testing a new visitor parking lot availability tool to help you find available spots in our most popular visitor lots. This mobile-friendly website provides real-time updates on lot availability, ensuring quick and convenient access to parking when you need it. Since this tool is brand new, we are hoping for some feedback on how it works from our campus community members. If you use this tool, please provide feedback via the Feedback Form.
Access the parking lot availability tool, then fill out the the feedback form.
Researchers from the Neurophysiology of Movement Laboratory at CU Boulder are conducting a study to investigate if electrical stimulation applied to the legs can reduce fatigue and improve walking in persons with multiple sclerosis.
You may be eligible to participate if you:
Evaluation sessions (approximately two hours each)
If you are interested, please contact Mélanie Henry by email at melanie.henry@colorado.edu and reference the MS clinical trial.
The Neurophysiology of Movement Laboratory (located on CU Boulder's Main Campus) is evaluating the influence of multiple sclerosis on the ability to control the force produced by lower-leg muscles. The study consists of one two-hour visit to assess motor function with self-reported and clinical assessments and lower-leg muscle activity during moderate contractions.
The inclusion criteria for healthy individuals include:
The inclusion criteria for people with multiple sclerosis include:

As a large, eco-conscious community at CU Boulder, we have a great opportunity to work together to protect our stormwater resources and contribute to the university’s sustainability goals. By adopting simple habits like cleaning up after pets, properly disposing of waste and being mindful of fertilizer use, each of us can make a positive impact. Read more on CU Boulder Today.
The College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS) is making two changes to Intra-University Transfer (IUT) requirements, effective for fall 2025 IUT admissions:
The required CU Boulder minimum 2.700 technical GPA and all other IUT on track and admissions requirements will remain the same. Please visit the College of Engineering and Applied Science IUT webpage for more information. The CEAS fall 2025 IUT application opens May 15.
The Integrative Physiology of Aging Lab at CU Boulder’s campus is seeking volunteers to participate in a clinical research study. We are looking for adults, ages 40-plus who are willing to participate in water immersion sessions approximately three times per week for 12 weeks and have above normal blood pressure (a top number of 115 or higher; if you are unsure of your blood pressure, please still contact us for screening).
Benefits for volunteers include: cardiovascular health assessment, exercise stress test, body composition, blood chemistries and monetary compensation for time.
For more information, please email ipalab@colorado.edu or call 303-735-6410.
