The start of a new semester means that we have an opportunity to welcome learners—new and continuing—back to our classrooms on campus or online. It also gives us the opportunity to acknowledge the incredible faculty members that help support these students from their first day to the day they earn their degree.
This month, CU welcomed new faculty members for the 2023–24 academic year with a variety of events, including a day-long orientation event (pictured). Scroll down for a complete list of new faculty members and join us in saying hello to the newest members of our Lynx community!
