Remote Work Monday During Commencement, 5-15-24

Dear students, faculty and staff,

As we prepare to send off our newest graduates at Monday’s commencement ceremonies, we expect large numbers of visitors on campus as guests make their way to the main ceremony in Boettcher Commons and the school, college and program convocations that follow. 

We encourage those who are not a part of commencement activities to work remotely on Monday, May 20, if at all possible to help minimize campus congestion and accommodate our guests. Normal campus operations will resume on Tuesday, May 21. 

Please remember that changes in university operations do not affect operations at UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital or Children's Hospital Colorado. Hospital and clinic operations are normal unless otherwise announced by those facilities. Students, faculty and staff assigned to work in the clinics/hospitals on campus must report to work unless the hospitals or clinical sites announce changes in their operations.

Thank you for helping to make spring commencement a special day for our graduates and the many family members, friends and loved ones who will join us on campus to celebrate. 

An extra note of thanks to the facilities and events teams, and the campus police, for all of your hard work in preparation for our commencement ceremonies, and to the essential personnel who cannot work remotely as they keep our campus operations optimized.

With gratitude,

Don Elliman
Chancellor
