Description: CU Café is an organization of postdoctoral researchers and doctoral students of color at CU Boulder. Our aim is to create a supportive community for underrepresented scholars to thrive and grow on campus. To that end, CU Café brings underrepresented scholars and professionals to campus to give both departmental discipline-specific colloquia as well as informal inspirational/career development talks to grad students and postdocs. Each year CU Café identifies and brings STEM disciplinary speakers to campus through shared funding from the Office of Diversity, Equity and Community Engagement and the individual academic departments, and one speaker of campus-wide interest. CU Café also meets regularly to provide opportunities for professional development, community building, social opportunities, and informal academic support for its members.
