Show your school spirit this Friday, Jan. 16 as CU-Boulder kicks off “Spirit Fridays.” Students, staff and faculty are invited to show their dedication to CU-Boulder in any way they choose, such as wearing black, silver and gold. The new tradition is not related directly to athletics, but rather is centered in “finding our vital points of connection to CU and making sure they stay strong,” according to Chancellor G.P. “Bud” Peterson. For more information about “Spirit Fridays,” watch for the news release on the News Center website. (Family Weekend photo by Casey A. Cass/University of Colorado)
