Scene at CU: Welcoming Coach Dorrell, honoring employees of the year

Colorado's newest head football coach was welcomed this week, as Karl Dorrell was officially introduced as the Buffs' coach at a press conference on Monday. However, he wasn't the only employee being recognized this week, as the four winners of the 2019 Chancellor’s Employee of the Year Award were honored during halftime of a recent Colorado basketball game.
