CU-Boulder Campus Architect Emeritus:
William R. Deno, FAIA
Bill Deno has held responsible positions in facilities planning and development at CU-Boulder since 1973. He was given the title of Campus Architect in 1991, a position he had essentially held since 1984. Up until August of 2000, he was also responsible for all planning and capital development activity on the Boulder campus. At that time the responsibility was turned over to Steve Thweatt so that Bill could concentrate on activities related to oversight of the campus buildings and grounds inventory – a higher education setting that has been universally recognized for its excellence. In retirement, Bill continues as CU-Boulder Campus Architect-Emeritus on a part-time basis.
Bill Deno is the author of Body & Soul, Architectural Style at the University of Colorado at Boulder, an award-winning 1994 book which promotes the legacy of the much-admired Boulder campus. He is the recipient of the Alumni Association's "Stearns Award" for outstanding alumni service and was named AIA Colorado Architect of the Year 1997. He was inducted into the College of Fellows of the AIA in 1999.
