Land Acknowledgment

ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ÆÆ½â°æÏÂÔØ's Land Acknowledgment

The University of Colorado Boulder, Colorado’s flagship university, honors and recognizes the many contributions of Indigenous peoples in our state. ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ÆÆ½â°æÏÂÔØ acknowledges that it is located on the traditional territories and ancestral homelands of the Cheyenne, Arapaho, Ute and many other Native American nations. Their forced removal from these territories has caused devastating and lasting impacts. While the University of Colorado Boulder can never undo or rectify the devastation wrought on Indigenous peoples, we commit to improving and enhancing engagement with Indigenous peoples and issues locally and globally.ÌýWe will do this by:

  • Recognizing and amplifying the voices of Indigenous ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ÆÆ½â°æÏÂÔØ students, staff and faculty and their work.
  • Educating, conducting research, supporting student success and integrating Indigenous knowledge.
  • Consulting, engaging and working collaboratively with tribal nations to enhance our ability to provide access and culturally sensitive support and to recruit, retain and graduate Native American students in a climate that is inclusive and respectful.
