Buffalo Statues of CU Boulder

Some stand framed by the Flatirons; others are tucked into campus corners. A few are carved from marble; many are cast in bronze.

Several have horns smoothed by thousands of hopeful hands, rubbed for luck, for courage, for something just ahead. Each one holds a piece of someone’s CU Boulder story.

Scattered across the CU Boulder campus, buffalo statues are abundant. They stand as enduring symbols of strength, resilience and a united spirit for all who pass by.
