Did we see you around in recent days? Captured in video and photos were a breakfast kickoff to Graduate Student Appreciation Week, furry friends lending students a helping paw, several other on- and off-campus events and highlights shared by you in social media.

Scene at CU is a weekly series, a look back at happenings and stories among the campus community, captured in visuals. See, watch and take in the moments. You might catch a glimpse of a thrilling event, a grand celebration, the culmination of an achievement, a subtle beauty among our surroundings, the flux of seasons, a quiet observance, a community connection and more.
