The deadline to withdraw from any summer off-campus block without program charges is Saturday, Mar. 1. Students who withdraw after this date will be billed 25% of the program fee, increasing to 75% if the withdrawal occurs during Block 8. For the Summer in Spain program, this deadline was Wednesday, Feb. 12. 

Interested in joining our team as a student employee? Check out our open positions for the 2025-2026 academic year on our webpage. Applications open on Saturday, Mar. 1 and close on Sunday, Mar. 23 at 11:59 p.m.

2025-2026 Block Away applications are open on Summit and students should apply by Saturday, Mar. 15 to be considered for possible Block Away Aid Awards. Later applicants are unlikely to receive an aid award. March 15, is also the deadline for the Internal Application on Summit for any partner-led semester away or full year away program. Late applications for semester away will not be accepted.

Did you know that CC offers an e-waste recycling program? We provide a responsible way to recycle unwanted or non-working electronics. Many electronic devices contain toxic materials that can harm the environment if disposed of improperly. 

Upcoming Drop-Off Event: Join us for our Block 6 e-waste drop-off on Thursday, Mar. 6 from 2-3 p.m. at Breton Hall Garage #8 (northwest corner of Parking Lot C-1). Our team will be on -site to assist you with unloading.  

Drop-Off Bin Locations: Basement of Worner Campus Center, first floor of Tutt Library, and first floor of Office of Sustainability 

The Summer Internship Funding Application is now open. Apply in Summit. The first round deadline is Wednesday, Mar. 15.

It is not too late to consider Study Away this summer. Many programs are still accepting late applications and have space available. Review the program options on the Global Education Summer 2025 website, contact the faculty to see if they are still accepting applications, and get your Summit applications in. Unfortunately, obtaining an aid award at this time is very unlikely, but if you do not require aid to participate, many summer off-campus blocks do have room to add more students.

Earth Week is just around the corner! This year, CC’s Earth Week celebrations will take place from April 21-25 (Block 8 Week 1). If your group is planning to host an event during this time and would like to be part of the wider Earth Week celebrations, we’d love to connect with you. Each year, our office, alongside campus and community partners, organizes a full week of events and programming for the CC community. We’d be happy to support your event and feature it in our marketing efforts, just email sustainability@coloradocollege.edu to get started.

Mark your calendar for Community Engagement Recognition Night, Thursday, May 1, 4:30-6 p.m. in Bemis Great Hall and Lounge.
