PSU Colorado is made up entirely of volunteers (even our Officers). We are always needing volunteers. If you are able to volunteer your time, your ideas, giveaways, or any type of support, please let us know. Everything we do would not be possible without the help and support of volunteers. As always, contact us at info@psucolorado.org
PSU Colorado Board of Directors Structure:
The PSU Colorado Board of Directors consists of four Officer positions who direct the main initiatives of the Chapter, listed below. Various Chair positions report to each Officer. All Officers are elected individuals who are nominated and voted annually in person at the annual meeting held in the first quarter of each year. The Board meets monthly on the first Thursday of the month (location varies) from January through August. In the Fall, the Board practically meets every Saturday during the game watches at our main football game watch location in Denver. Our meetings are completely transparent and are posted under our Events section and are always open to anyone who wishes to attend (open to alumni and non-alumni). Simply register for the meeting on this site so we know you're coming or feel free to just show up!
