Amid racism protests, CU Boulder moves toward reforms
University of Colorado Boulder and student leaders reached an agreement Wednesday to implement reforms that will address and prevent racism on campus.
The agreement came three days after a video was posted to social media of a white woman accosting black students studying at the Engineering Center, yelling racist slurs and expletives.
On Monday, CU Boulder’s Black Student Alliance presented a list of five demands to campus leaders that centered on accountability and policy change to prevent further acts of racism.
After a meeting with Chancellor Phil DiStefano and other campus leaders on Wednesday, the Black Student Alliance released a statement with how the university will answer each of its demands.
