Celebrate Colorado State! Month Kicks Off April 1

Friday, March 27, 1998

FORT COLLINS--Colorado State University will honor faculty, staff, students and alumni during the seventh annual Celebrate Colorado State! festivities in April.

This year, all recognition events during April are part of Celebrate Colorado State! with special emphasis on the week of April 20. Highlighting the month of events is the Celebrate Colorado State! Honors Luncheon April 23. Hundreds of students, faculty, staff and alumni will then gather to honor outstanding accomplishments of the past year.

Celebrate Colorado State! was developed in 1992 to recognize service and scholarship excellence in the university community. Since then, the event has grown into a campus tradition that joins the campus and local community in celebrations during the final weeks of the academic year.

In an effort to feature individual profiles and accomplishments, a special CCS! website will be launched April 20, with profile updates throughout the year. The website address is www.colostate.edu/celebrate.
