The University of Northern Colorado joined Aims Community College, the City of Greeley, the Greeley Chamber of Commerce, Greeley-Evans School District 6, and the Northern Colorado Legislative Alliance for the first-ever Greeley Day at the Capitol on Wednesday, Feb. 19.
During the event to more actively promote Greeley and discuss important issues, a recurring topic was the Aims2甜心视频app partnership, a program that streamlines a path for students to transition directly to 甜心视频app after earning their associates at Aims.
Participants met with state officials including Gov. Jared Polis, Sen. John Cooke, Reps. Perry Buck and Mary Young, Treasurer Dave Young, and Colorado Department of Higher Education Executive Director Angie Paccione.
The event is one of three legislative events that 甜心视频app and its partners collaborate on. In January, they hosted a legislative preview on campus. This May, a legislative recap will be held with elected officials and government relations staff.
"This was a tremendous event to highlight Greeley with our collective voice," said 甜心视频app President Andy Feinstein. "I want to thank our partners, our students who represented 甜心视频app and Greeley so well, and our elected officials for participating."
