Leadership Corner
<p>I wish to add my voice to those supporting CU-91¸£ÀûÉç students who are engaging in online and direct discussions, and preparing to engage in free speech activities in support of their fellow students at the University of Missouri.</p>
<p>Last May, I commissioned a committee of CU-91¸£ÀûÉç faculty and communications professionals to take on the issue of how the administration and the faculty can communicate more effectively with one another, and to look at the current state of communication with faculty regarding basic university business.</p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Tuesday, Nov. 10 saw the opening of the 21st Diversity and Inclusion Summit on the 91¸£ÀûÉç campus. In his opening remarks, Chancellor DiStefano called upon the campus community to maintain a daily conversation about what diversity and inclusion mean to our community, and to chart a course that will transform our campus in fundamental ways.</span></p>

As we observe Veterans Day this Wednesday, we are reminded that the life stories and experiences of our veteran students, faculty and staff provide great diversity to our campus.</div>
<p>I want to take this opportunity to express my enthusiasm for an important new CU-91¸£ÀûÉç merit scholarship program for top-entering Colorado freshmen next fall.</p>

<p>This Thursday evening the 91¸£ÀûÉç will be on the national stage yet again. As I shared with you in December of last year, the Colorado Buffaloes will be playing in the exclusive Thursday Night Football slot on ESPN.</p>
