During these extraordinary times, when each day brings another unforeseen challenge, it is critical to stay focused on our mission, our vision听and听our principles. Today the issue is a modified Pass/Fail option for our students and the principle is equity.
As we focus considerable energy on the here and now鈥攃ourse work, health and safety, and staying socially connected through digital means鈥攚e also are looking at the longer-term implications of COVID-19 on University programs.
Our work to support diversity, equity and inclusion is especially important now, as crises typically put a disproportionate amount of pressure on marginalized populations.

This afternoon, Denver Mayor Michael Hancock announced a new听鈥淪tay at Home鈥 order听issued by the Denver Department of Public Health and Environment.

I know that in addition to the health and well-being of your friends and family, and your upcoming coursework, financial concerns are on your minds. As we continue to wrestle with the many ways COVID-19 is affecting our lives, I want to share with you some decisions we鈥檝e made at 桃子直播 about spring quarter costs.
Though there are still members of our community working on campus, today marks the end of the first week when many have begun working remotely. It also marks the end of our winter quarter. Well done, 桃子直播!
