Students: What the public health order means for you

Boulder County shifted to Safer At Home Level Orange on the state’s COVID-19 dial. This shift did not affect the BCPH public health order on gathering sizes for 18 to 22 year olds. While the impacts to campus operations were also minimal, CU Boulder is taking actions to provide flexibility for students for the rest of the fall semester.
