Unsure if you're going to make it back to Boulder for Alumni Weekend? 

Hear from some of last year's attendees about why you should attend this year!

"Attending the CU Alumni Weekend was a wonderful experience! My wife (an actual alumni) treated us to tickets for the weekend. It was great to spend the weekend on the CU Boulder campus, connect with other alumni and experience springtime in Boulder. Special shoutout to the Culture on Tap event- it was so fun to learn about local brewers, their diverse backgrounds and their journey to operating fantastic breweries!"

"I'll admit I almost didn't attend alumni weekend last April. Like many, but when I saw the agenda and noticed events hosted by BIPOC alumni, something shifted for me. We were so few in number back when I was a student in the '90s. I felt called to show up, to support, and to represent.
 
What we found exceeded every expectation. The people were genuinely friendly and welcoming. The events were thoughtful and engaging. And of course, the town and campus were as beautiful as I remembered, maybe even more so through the eyes of my son experiencing it for the first time.
 
The weekend reminded me why connection matters. It showed me that our alumni community is evolving, creating spaces where more of us can see ourselves reflected. I'm grateful I didn't let my assumptions keep me away, and I'm already looking forward to returning."
