University of Colorado Athletics hosted a special luncheon to recognize the many people who were instrumental in passing HB25-1041, a new state law that allows universities to compensate student-athletes for their Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) rights, while also providing student-athlete privacy protection of that compensation. CU President Todd Saliman, CU Boulder Chancellor Justin Schwartz and Athletic Director Rick George all spoke to express their gratitude for the hard work in getting the bill passed.
At its regular meeting in Colorado Springs on June 4, the University of Colorado Board of Regents unanimously approved a resolution condemning the June 1 attack in Boulder that injured 15 participants in a peaceful vigil supporting Israeli hostages. “This unprovoked, violent act specifically targeted the Jewish community, reflecting a broader and very troubling escalation of antisemitism in the broader community,” states the resolution.
