Buff Bulletin Board

The Buff Bulletin Board, a listing of campus announcements, is a service of Campus Communications.

 

During campus portal maintenance, which is next scheduled for Sunday, Aug. 9, you can still access Canvas and some other campus services through direct links (e.g., ).

Before the fall semester begins, Buff Bus riders will see improvements at two bus stops near the ĢӰ Avenue and Folsom Street intersection. 

These stops are being upgraded to floating bus stops, a design that helps improve safety and keeps buses moving efficiently. With this new layout, the bike lane runs between the bus stop platform and the sidewalk, creating clearer spaces for riders, cyclists and buses. 

What this means for riders

  • More predictable and efficient bus arrivals and departures 
  • Improved safety for people boarding and exiting the bus 
  • Reduced delays caused by traffic and vehicles passing buses 
  • More reliable service during winter weather when buses can remain in the travel lane 

The new floating bus stops will serve: 

  • Westbound: Stampede and HOP routes 
  • Eastbound: Stampede and Will Vill routes 

These improvements are part of ongoing efforts to make campus transit safer, more reliable and more comfortable for Buff Bus riders and the broader campus community.

Wildfires can happen at any time of year in ĢӰ, which makes fireworks particularly dangerous in the Boulder area. Setting off fireworks also negatively impacts the health and wellness of your neighbors and our community.

The city of Boulder’s firework laws are more restrictive than other areas of ĢӰ. Laws prohibit items like sparklers, snaps, snakes, bottle rockets, Roman candles and smoke bombs, in addition to fireworks that leave the ground or explode. You may also be held responsible for fireworks used by roommates and guests.

Possible legal penalties include:

  • Fines up to $2,650
  • Court fees
  • Possible arson charges
  • Possible jail time
  • Liability for property or personal injury damages

You will also be referred to Student Conduct & Conflict Resolution at ĢӰ Boulder.

Unused fireworks can be brought to the city of Boulder Public Safety Building at 1805 33rd St. without penalty. Connect with ⁠Student Legal Services or visit ⁠Off-Campus Housing & Neighborhood Relations to learn more about common citations and Boulder ordinances.
