CU Boulder’s Center for Leadership celebrates 50 years of impact

More than 50 years ago, CU Boulder planted a bold idea: that leadership isn’t reserved for a select few—it lives within us all. What started with the formation of the Presidents Leadership Class in 1972 grew into the Center for Leadership (CFL), established in 2020. Today, CFL supports a vibrant leadership ecosystem on campus and empowers thousands of students to lead with purpose and authenticity.
