Five questions for Mark Kennedy

Less than a year after taking his post, CU President Mark Kennedy confronted a time unlike any other in university history.

“We’re navigating through five turbulent forces: The worst pandemic since 1918; a deep recession that has strangled economic activity; the most intense focus on civil rights since the 1960s; and arguably, the greatest political divisiveness since the Civil War. Further compounding these, COVID has sparked a tech-celeration that is fundamentally changing our lives,” Kennedy said.
