Kerry Tipper didn’t take a straight line to the University of Colorado. Raised in Costa Rica, Mexico and the United States, she learned early the value of language, identity and perspective as the daughter of a teacher and a military veteran. As CU’s vice president of University Counsel and the system’s chief legal officer, Tipper serves as the top legal adviser for the university, providing leaders with legal insight, political experience and strategic guidance to help them navigate complex decisions while prioritizing the university’s mission and people.
University of Colorado nonexempt (federal overtime eligible) employees will transition from a monthly to a biweekly pay schedule later this year. The change, scheduled for Sept. 27, supports continued improvements in payroll accuracy, consistency and timeliness as part of CU’s broader Time and Labor project.
