Remember that you are a Buff wherever you are

The University of Colorado Boulder Creed is honor; respect and integrity. Let’s all enjoy the game and embody these core values. 

 

 

Honor

CU and the City of Boulder welcome fans new and old to experience first-hand what it means to be a Buff and stand “Shoulder to Shoulder.”  

 

Respect

Being a part of the CU and Boulder communities means treating everyone with dignity.    

 

Integrity

Take care of yourself and others. Recognizing poor behavior and calling it out is important for the safety and well-being of our community. This includes having a great time but making sure others have fun by celebrating responsibly. Everyone plays an important part in these efforts.

Be respectful and considerate

Remember that you’re a Buff wherever you are. Whether you’re watching the game at Folsom Field, a local restaurant or a friend’s house off campus, be considerate and respectful to those around you. Buffs stand shoulder to shoulder and value honor, respect and integrity. Make sure you’re welcoming fans, new and old, treating everyone with dignity and celebrating responsibly. 

If you’re off campus, be mindful of noise levels. Excessive noise at any time of the day can result in a nuisance ticket—a common citation that can be avoided. You can also be fined if there is trash in your yard or around your property.

If you’re planning on hosting a gathering, lower your chances of receiving an expensive ticket by registering your party with Off-Campus Life. Registering your party will give you a 20-minute warning to shut things down before police are dispatched if a complaint has been made against your address.

Look out for yourselves and each other

 We can all do our part to look out for fellow Buffs, both on and off campus. 

  • If you’re concerned about your safety or someone else's, keep an eye on the situation and don’t hesitate to call for help. Always call 911 in a drug- or alcohol-related emergency.
  • Review the Amnesty Policy to learn more about what to do if you need to call for help in an alcohol- or drug-related emergency.
  • Review more information about how you can be an effective bystander and look out for other members of our community.
