Student Lounge Named After Rochelle Dickey
|
|
During Homecoming and Family Weekend 2022, CC hosted a ribbon cutting of its first-ever multicultural student lounge: The Rochelle T. Dickey Student Lounge. This was made possible through a collaboration between CCSGA and the Butler Center. The space honors Dickey, who retires after 32 years of service (36 years at CC if you count her time as a student!) in Spring 2023.

Campus Safety Tips If You’re Away During Winter Break
Protect Your Belongings
- Bring valuables with you or stow them out of sight in a closet, locked trunk, or lockable storage area.
- Do NOT leave your bike on a rack! Take bicycles home or bring them inside a locked residence hall room or office. During breaks, we see a large increase in bike thefts.
- IF you are leaving a bike on campus for Winter Break:
- Campus Safety will be tagging bikes for removal bikes from racks if they are missing parts, haven’t moved in a long time, or appear abandoned. If you receive an orange band on your bike, contact Campus Safety so your bike lock does not get cut!
- All bikes collected will be reserved for 30 days, then will be donated.
- If you have a bike you no longer use, you can donate the bike to the CC Bike and Ski Co-op; drop it off at Campus Safety or the Outdoor Education Center.
- Make sure your bike is registered.
Lock Up
- No matter what floor, lock all exterior windows and doors and remind roommates/other family members to do the same.
- Take out the trash.
- Clean out the refrigerator and remove anything that could go bad.
- Unplug electrical appliances including space heaters.
- Leave the heat on in buildings to prevent pipes from freezing.
- Extension cords are designed for short term use. UNPLUG all extension cords.
Secure Vehicles
- If you’re leaving your vehicle on campus, email parking@coloradocollege.edu BEFORE departure to make appropriate accommodations for permitted lots and street zones.
- The Parking Office will be closed during Winter Break.
- If leaving a vehicle in a university parking lot or garage over the break, remove all valuables, close the windows tightly, and lock the doors.

Robert G. Moore to Retire in Spring 2023
|
|
By Julia Fennell ’21
Robert G. Moore, senior vice president for Finance and Administration, chief financial officer, and chief operating officer, will retire in Spring 2023.
“It has been a privilege to serve CC, its students, and employees throughout the past 14 years,” Moore says. “Colorado College is a rare place where the dedication and drive of the entire campus community make it possible to achieve, solve, and innovate every day. I am grateful for the opportunities I’ve had to build on CC’s strengths and to have a part in creating the unparalleled experience we provide for CC students.”
