Althea Murphy-Price’s work is inspired by the social implication of beauty and its relationship to female identity, women and culture. Topics of real and false, decoration, and imitation are explored in two and three dimensional working methods, using traditional and non-conventional approaches to printmaking, and sculpture. Her artwork has been shown widely throughout the country as well as internationally.

More about the Nahuatl Evening

Through this anonymous survey, faculty, staff, and students will be able to provide insights into the extent to which they feel respected, supported, and valued. CU Boulder also seeks to understand how the experiences of campus community members differ by gender, race and ethnicity, sexual orientation, and gender identity.

The survey results will provide benchmark data in support of the Inclusion, Diversity and Excellence in Academics (IDEA) Plan. Insights from the survey findings will guide the campus’s efforts to build a more just, diverse, equitable, and inclusive campus community.
