The ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï is restoring a former staff position intended to further foster an environment where faculty and staff feel supported personally and professionally to develop an enriching experience for ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï students. This position – an ombudsperson – has not existed at the university for the last two decades-plus, until now, with the recent addition of Johnny Armijo to serve in this role.

On Friday, June 17, the streets in front of ÍøÆسԹÏ’s Marcus Garvey Cultural Center were alive with celebration for the first-ever community-wide Juneteenth celebration.

The Greeley Stampede, which started in 1922, has always brought color and energy to the local community, so it’s fitting that as it celebrates 100 years, it does so with even more color greeting spectators. And two ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï alumni were chosen to paint the new murals.

The ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï Board of Trustees moved through a lengthy agenda for its final meeting of fiscal year (FY) 22 on Friday, June 10, approving next year’s budget and receiving an update on the next phase of the university’s strategic plan, Rowing, Not Drifting 2030.
