Kelley most recently came from a senior property manager role at the Colorado Center property near Colorado Boulevard and Interstate 25, with Lincoln Property Company Commercial, Inc. – a company she worked with since 2006. Kelley is the second dedicated hire for CSU Spur; in February, Kathryn Venzor was hired as the Director of Education for CSU Spur.
At the May 6 meeting of the Colorado State University System Board of Governors, President Joyce McConnell shared plans for mostly in-person learning, events and university operations on campus this fall, largely made possible by the recently announced vaccine requirement. McConnell also advocated for a 3% merit pool to provide pay increases for faculty and administrative professional staff, along with a 3% increase in teaching and research assistant stipends for graduate students. That degree of additional salary support would match what is planned for classified personnel across the state.

There’s no mystery over how excess energy ends up below cities. Showers, hot waters and sinks all add hot water to sewers. In fact, the U.S. Department of Energy estimates American’s wash 350 billion kilowatt-hours of energy down the drain every year.
