CU Advocacy Day at the Colorado State Capitol
Friday, January 16
7:30 a.m.
Colorado State Capitol
CU Advocacy Day at the Colorado State Capitol is for University of Colorado alumni and friends interested in promoting CU and higher education with elected officials.
The primary goals of CU Advocacy Day are:
- to show alumni support for the University of Colorado by learning about legislative issues affecting higher education in Colorado
- discuss the importance of higher education in your area
- get to know the legislative process so you can advocate for CU
The University of Colorado is a state funded institution which requires support from the Colorado Legislature. Therefore, the objective of CU Advocacy Day is to advance the university’s mission by encouraging alumni to share in the building of a strong CU System by soliciting support for higher education. CU alumni can provide a unique service to the university. We need your participation because nothing could be more impressive than showing off the accomplishments of CU alumni who have benefited from higher education!
Registration is open through January 14, 2009 and is limited to the first 500 registrants (Space limited by room size in the Capitol building).
See the tentative agenda.
