Get a First Look at CC’s New Web Experience

Don’t Miss Brand Expression in Digital: CC’s Web Refresh

The Office of Communications & Marketing invites you to the next Work of the College: Brand Refresh Miniseries session, Brand Expression in Digital: CC’s Web Refresh, an inside look at the next chapter of Colorado College’s digital presence. Join us Thursday, Oct. 23, from 3-4 p.m. in Bemis Great Hall.

This session will introduce the elevated Web & Digital Experience Program at CC – its purpose, objectives, and focus initiatives—while showcasing how it supports our shared goal of sharing CC’s story in engaging, interactive, and accessible ways. You’ll learn how the Brand Refresh is applied to our website, what the website refresh project entails (and what it doesn’t), and how it will enhance our ability to express CC’s distinctive voice and visual identity online. OCM’s Web & Digital Experience Program Director Mark Lee will walk through the overall project timeline and offer a few exciting sneak previews of what’s to come.

You’ll also hear how CC is ensuring quality and consistency through a robust testing process. From sitewide accessibility checks and design validation to page-level reviews, this collaborative effort will rely on the participation of web authors across campus. The session will outline what to look for when previewing your pages, how to report issues, and the timeline for submitting feedback.

Whether you manage web content, contribute digital materials, or simply want to understand how CC’s digital ecosystem is evolving, this event will provide a first look at how our refreshed website reflects who we are and how we connect as a community.

The Work of the College Series is a year-long program of events with four goals: (1) clarify organizational structures and decision-making processes; (2) offer campus constituencies the opportunity to dialogue with leadership about campus affairs; (3) increase decision-making transparency in hopes of building trust; and (4) build community.

The Work of the College Series consists of:

Community Conversations (dialogue about specific topics)
Roadshows (presentations and Q&As)
Board of Trustees Town Halls (informational updates)

President’s Leadership Awards: Nominations Due October 31

Nominate Outstanding Leaders for the Heartwood Trophies

Each year, CC’s President’s Leadership Awards recognize four colleagues who exemplify leadership, service, innovation, courage, collaboration, community building, and diversity and inclusion. The awards are represented by unique Heartwood Trophies, crafted from reclaimed wood from trees removed during Tutt Library’s construction. These trophies symbolize both our people’s remarkable contributions and our connection to place. Recipient names are engraved in the wood’s growth rings, and each honoree holds a trophy for one year.

In addition to this recognition, the trophies have become a symbol of inspiration and connection across campus. Past recipients have shared that the trophies not only celebrate achievement, but also spark meaningful conversations, foster connections among colleagues, and serve as a lasting reminder of leadership’s impact at CC.

As part of our commitment to fostering workplace excellence, we invite you to help recognize those making a difference at CC. Learn more about the program and nomination criteria on the President’s Leadership Awards website. Nominations are due by Friday, Oct. 31.
