Student Edition - Dec. 21, 2022

Chancellor Phil DiStefano

A Message From the Chancellor

A year ago our community experienced tremendous devastation in the Marshall Fire. So many individuals with a connection to CU Boulder were affected, and in the immediate aftermath of the disaster, our friends, neighbors and colleagues offered crucial support and assistance in a dire time of need. 

I continue to be impressed by the courage and resilience of community members who are working to heal, as well as the thoughtful researchers who have studied the catastrophe with an eye toward preventing and mitigating future catastrophes of this magnitude.

I hope you will all take some time to reflect on this tragedy as we approach its anniversary and read about some of the incredible work that’s being done here at CU Boulder as we continue to assist those who are still recovering from the state’s most destructive wildfire.

One year later, dozens of ongoing research projects continue to explore the science behind what happened that day, the widespread impacts on people, pets and the environment and how we can mitigate future catastrophes amid a changing climate.
