For more than a century, the University of Colorado has served as a launching pad for future officers in the U.S. military through its Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) programs, a college-based pathway that combines academic study with leadership development and military training. CU is the only university in Colorado to host all major branches of ROTC, making it a singular hub for military leadership training in the state. Each year, more than 100 students commission as officers through these programs.
October is widely known as the spookiest month of the year and not just because of Halloween. It’s also Cybersecurity Awareness Month, when we consider how to protect ourselves from cybercriminals lurking in dark corners on the internet. Fortunately, Brad Judy, CU’s Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), and the university’s cybersecurity teams make things a lot less scary. Every day, they’re hard at work navigating the latest cyberthreats to keep CU and its information secure while shining a light on how we can reduce our risks online.
