As we approach April, Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM), #DUYourPart by encouraging friends, classmates and colleagues to join you in sharing valuable insights through the brief campus-wide survey that measures the perceptions of and experiences with sexual assault and other forms of gender-based violence, DU’s response and available resources. More details about the survey and on- and off-campus resources available for anyone for whom this survey may be activating, were sent out from the Chancellor via email on Monday, April 28th.
March 2022 update on DU's new logo
The University is in the last stage of the process and will shortly be selecting a new logo. Building off work done by our community in the fall, a subset of the Board of Trustees serving as an advisory group, as well as the Chancellor’s Cabinet, Deans’ Council, and a Logo Review Committee comprised of representatives from our campus community, including students, alumni, staff, faculty, and administrators, have been engaged in helping to shape a second phase of this work since January. A final recommendation will be shared with the full Board of Trustees in April with announcements to the campus community in the weeks that follow.
Be among the first to experience the James C. Kenned Mountain Campus at the University of Denver. Three unique oportunities across 4 Saturdays happening throughout the Spring Quarter.

Join us for the inaugural Day of Dialogue! This FREE event is an opportunity for students to meet peers, deepen communication skills relevant to any field, and learn about ways to take action. By applying your knowledge and making connections between identities and social issues, you will expand your awareness and impact not only as a DU community member but as a global citizen. The day will include a communication workshop, two rounds of dialogue, and a collective reflection activity. A light breakfast and lunch will be provided.
Saturday, April 9th (8 AM - 2 PM) | Daniels College of Business, Room 110
Join us for a special one-day sprint course! Building a meaningful life doesn’t just happen - it happens on purpose. In this 4D Life by Design course you will learn how to utilize design thinking not only to navigate college and life decisions but also to build pathways forward that center on purpose and well-being. You will approach the challenge of designing your educational experience and life beyond graduation the way a designer would - through empathy, experimentation, wayfinding, prototyping, and action planning. You will participate in highly interactive workshops, explore the social and personal narratives that shape your college view and life view, use breakout sessions to share and collaborate, practice ways to reframe problems, and gain insights through personal assessments and reflections.
