State of the Campus Address
September 28, 2004

Good afternoon and thank you for joining us today.

Ordinarily, I use this occasion to talk about some of the accomplishments and challenges of the past year, along with key initiatives for the future. But this year is different. Today, I will address how changes in American policy in higher education, particularly at the state level, are affecting our ability to fulfill our mission. And I will discuss how we plan to advance the University of Colorado at Boulder as a world-class research and teaching institution — despite the challenges.

And in keeping with tradition, we will close today’s event on a celebratory note as we recognize each of the faculty members who have been recently promoted or tenured.

But first, I want to begin by focusing on some important issues — alcohol, athletics, and the treatment of women — that have deeply affected our campus community.
