Membership in the Herd, the student arm of the Alumni Association, also is a great way to engage with other students and celebrate being a Buff. With 6,000 members, it’s one of the strongest student groups in the country. Take advantage of our alumni family for internship/job possibilities and mentoring through our online networking tool, My CU Network.

The University of Colorado Student Union (UCSU) is the student government for all CU-Boulder students. UCSU is among the most influential student governments in the nation and has an operating budget of more than $32 million. Similar to the structure of the U.S. government, UCSU has executive, legislative, and judicial branches. Executives are elected each year in the spring, and they appoint a staff of commissioners, student administrators, and administrative assistants. Legislative council meetings are held Thursday evenings at 7:00 p.m. in the UMC, and everyone is invited to attend.
