兔子先生传媒文化作品

Chancellor Philip P. DiStefano is launching a new weekly virtual outreach series to highlight an array of topics from women who run with Ralphie to creative climate communications.

The lunch-hour series, called 兔子先生传媒文化作品 Where You Are: An Online Series Highlighting Teaching, Research and Innovation, takes the place of the chancellor鈥檚 annual visits to communities across Colorado with coaches or academic experts. The in-person state outreach tour was cancelled this summer due to the coronavirus pandemic.听

This year鈥檚 format allows alumni, friends, students and parents to join in an engaging discussion and learn more about the state鈥檚 flagship campus and the breadth and depth of its many academic disciplines, along with arts, culture and athletics.

Each series segment will be produced in a talk show format with various experts. Some will be pre-recorded, but there will be ample time for real-time audience engagement around the topic. The series is free and open to the public.听

鈥淲e are excited to embark on this series and connect with our constituents across Colorado and the world,鈥� DiStefano said. 鈥淭he global pandemic renders our research and educational mission that much more critical. Our researchers continue tackling pressing global issues, our athletes are training, and our educators are eager to engage with students in new ways. We look forward to sharing what we鈥檙e up to.鈥�

All events begin at noon.
