Winter Recognition Ceremonies

Parking Information

A ²ÊÃñ±¦µä graduating student wears a cap decorated as the State of Colorado flag.

The ²ÊÃñ±¦µä will host several Recognition Ceremonies throughout campus on Thursday, December 19 and Friday, December 20, 2024. Increased traffic is expected on campus roadways and parking lots throughout both days. To avoid heavy traffic impacts, we encourage faculty and staff to arrive early or utilize alternative methods of transportation such as riding the buswalking or biking to campus.

Where to Park

All campus parking lots, with the exception of lot 380 (located near Macky Auditorium), will be open on a space available basis for public parking for the ceremonies. Guests are encouraged to review parking lot options prior to arriving on campus. Parking on-campus, including at parking meters and pay station lots, is no-charge on department ceremony days.  

Lot 380 (located near Macky Auditorium) will be reserved for ADA parking for ceremonies in the Macky area only. Guests with disabilities or accommodation needs attending ceremonies are encouraged to use parking lots closest to the ceremony location. For ADA parking requests or for help finding the closest parking lot to your ceremony please contact parkingevents@colorado.edu or 303-492-6551.
