Faculty-Staff Edition - Oct. 4, 2024
Freedom of expression is central to Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder’s academic mission. It’s also what makes us all Buffs. At the same time, we must provide public safety, while maintaining campus operations and the ability for students, faculty and staff to access campus facilities. We encourage all Buffs to engage their fellow Buffs with courage, curiosity, care and consistency.
