It’s 4am and I woke up to see the whole Boulder police department lined up in the stearns parking lot with their lights flashing, 2-3 ambulances and I’m pretty sure I saw a firetruck.

Boulder is having its first local filmmakers showcase next week! 🎬

The theme of the showcase next week is New Beginnings and will include a short film from Boulder-based adventurer and filmmaker Ryan Van Duzer.

Every movie will be followed by a brief Q&A with the filmmaker, giving the audience a chance to ask them about their creative approach, production, and workflow.

And, admission is free for students!

Academic Probation and Financial aid issues

4 Upvotes

Good times! JK, every time I talk to someone from CU about Academic Probation or Financial aid I get different answers. I am a 4th year and still don't have a direct people to contact. Is that normal? Do you call the main number, or do you email your advisor for everything?

Is the facebook Cu Boulder buy and sell worth it?

4 Upvotes

Found the cu boulder buy and sell community on fb, but it says i need to pay a monthly membership fee of like 2-3 dollars to join it. For anyone who's used it, would you say its worth it? Fee isnt that big of an issue i just dont wanna start the monthly payments and never use it.

Does CU admissions consider music studies not through school as an extracurricular?

2 Upvotes

My son wants to go to CU in a few years. His big extracurricular action right now is music—guitar and singing, studying each and performing. But these are not extracurricular activities at school. Will CU admissions consider these the same way a music club at school would be considered?

Parking

Does the campus actually check if you are parked where you shouldn’t be, I guess they gotta check every single license plate to see if hey don’t hand out physical permits.

Hey everyone! Does anyone have one of these shirts and want to trade for a bigger size? I have a large and I'm trying to get a medium, so if you have a medium and want a large hit me up! It's never been worn, they just wouldn't let me trade for a different size. 😭

They are extending our cu Email access with a list of rules. I guess at least we still get to keep what they promised us, at least for one more year.

Did anyone take a rock from a garden on Grant Place?

100 Upvotes

I am posting to help Nancy T., who posted on NextDoor:

"This is going to sound silly to many people, but I am asking for your help. I live on Grant Place, just a block down from Chautauqua and sometime in the last day or two someone removed a very special rock from my garden. I lost my husband to cancer 11 years ago and the last trip that we were able to take together he found this very unusual rectangular rock. He told me when he left me and no longer could be my "rock" to look at this and know that my "rock" would always be there. It was about 9" long and had a very smooth surface. It almost looked like it could have been a fossil. It isn't worth anything to anyone, but it it worth everything to me. It was in my garden alongside the sidewalk. If you accidentally took it, or your child did, PLEASE return it. No questions asked. It probably meant nothing more to you than it was an interesting rock, but as silly as it may sound, it meant everything to me. We were married for 38 years before cancer took him, I lost my "rock". Thank you SO MUCH!!"
