4D Symposium

May 18 9:30 am - 5:30 pm | Community Commons
The 2023 4D Symposium held on May 18 from 9:30 am - 5:30 pm in the Community Commons is designed to bring together campus stakeholders - faculty, administrators, staff, and students - to learn more about the 4-Dimensional (4D) Experience and share progress and models around elevating this work. Throughout the day, the 4D team as well as a variety of faculty, staff, and student speakers will be presenting sessions on how they see 4D integrating with their experience at DU, as well as the ways they envision the future of 4D taking shape. We hope this event will inspire our community to support holistic learning and development experiences for our students through integrating the four dimensions of advancing intellectual growth, exploring character, promoting well-being, and pursuing careers and lives of purpose.

Campus Safety is Right at Your FingerTips 

The DU Safe app is now available to help ensure your safety on campus.  Did you know, you can get severe weather alerts from Campus Safety right to your phone with DU Safe? Pretty handy on weeks like this when Colorado weather doesn't want to play nice. You can also get tips on how to stay safe during a severe weather emergency in the Emergency Plans section. For example, if you happen to be in your car when faced with an oncoming tornado, do not wait out the storm in your car. Instead, attempt to outrun the tornado by driving perpendicular to its path.  The DU Safe app is an excellent tool for keeping yourself safe on campus and gives access to so many safety features that are meant to aid you and the DU Community. We encourage you to download and share it with your friends. Simply visit your app store, search for “DU Safe” and add the app to your device. Then, use your standard DU credentials (the same you would use to authenticate into your email address or MyDU) and begin using the many safety features offered within DU Safe. Campus safety is right at your fingertips!
