2023 CU Denver Regents Awards Ceremony

May 9, 2023

On May 1, the 2023 CU Denver Regent Awards ceremony brought members of the University of Colorado Board of Regents together with our community to recognize six individuals for their significant and notable contributions to CU Denver, the state, the nation, and the world. “For the university, these remarkable individuals exemplify the heights of intellectual endeavor and service to the community that we hope to instill in all of our students,” said CU Denver Chancellor Michelle Marks. “Their professions and experiences represent the great diversity that we celebrate and value so much on our campus. They are community leaders, artists, historians, architects, scientists, philanthropists, and educators.”
