Three regents take their oaths of office

Three members of the Board of Regents on Tuesday took their oaths of office during a ceremony at CU Denver’s Student Commons Building, formally beginning their six-year terms. Taking part were the victors of three races decided last November: Board of Regents Vice Chair Ken Montera, who was reelected to his seat in District 5; Elliott Hood, elected by voters statewide as the board’s at-large member; and Ray Scott, elected in the 3rd Congressional District.

Five questions for Lesley Smith

Elected to her first term in 2018, Regent Lesley Smith had planned to spend this year running statewide for a second term as the board’s at-large member. And while she will indeed be taking an oath of office next month, it will be the one for her newly won seat in Colorado’s House District 49. “My scientific background is what drew me to the legislature,” said Smith, who spent nearly 30 years at CU Boulder’s Cooperative Institute for Research in the Environmental Sciences (CIRES). “But I also hope to be a strong voice at the Capitol for higher education."

Five questions for Amanda Bickel

Growth in the development and use of Open Educational Resources (OER) across the CU system is creating meaningful savings for students at the four campuses. OER supporters also can be found at the Capitol, including among the members and staff of the Joint Budget Committee (JBC). For years, Amanda Bickel, Chief Legislative Budget and Policy Analyst with the JBC Staff, has encouraged members of the General Assembly to make Colorado a leader in OER.
