Be Engaged.

CU Boulder Staff Council is excited to honor Linda Frueh Wellmann, who as of this year has served at CU Boulder for 50 years. Below is a short autobiography presented by Linda that highlights her time at CU and some of the wonderful memories she’s collected, as well as a note from CU Nobel Prize Laureate, Professor Carl Wieman.

Everyone deserves to have their self-ascribed name and pronouns respected in the workplace. And it’s up to us to create a safe space for everyone who is comfortable displaying those pronouns. Included are 5 easy ways to help create that safe space.

Staff Council is excited to share this important blood donor on eligibility, pledge portal, and upcoming drive.

CU Boulder’s work towards a more inclusive, diverse and equitable environment is always situated within the broader context of our society. The sessions in this year’s remote Diversity Summit will explore the multiple intersecting events impacting our immediate community, which in turn affect our broader communities.

Staff Council, along with counselors from CU’s Faculty & Staff Assistance Program, invite you to a presentation about how you can utilize FSAP as your employee mental health support resource and gain ideas for mindfulness-based stress management strategies.

We take your concerns seriously, of course, but we also look forward to playing games with you! Join us for Yahtzee on October 29 and Jeopardy on November 10. Both games will be via Zoom and require registration prior.

As we near the end of October and head toward the winter months, Staff Council would like to share something that you can enjoy in your own home! We have compiled our favorite recipes into an online cookbook, which you’ll find on the Outreach Page on our website.

CU Boulder Staff Council will be sponsoring an off-campus blood drive November 8th - 21st at the Boulder and Westminster Vitalant donation centers. CU-affiliated donors who give during the drive at the Boulder and Westminster locations will receive a one-of-a-kind logoed wooden coaster while supplies last.

Staff Council will be hosting its first YAHTZEE! Night on Thursday, October 29, at 7:00 p.m., via Zoom. Please register by Wednesday, October 28. You will be contacted with the link to Zoom room, a copy of the score sheet (you can hand write it or print it), rules of the game, and a list of prizes.

CU Boulder Staff Council would like to thank all who participated in the Staff Council Speaker Series on the Infrastructure and Sustainability Mentor Program. If you were unable to attend, the event was recorded and can be viewed at the following link.
