Happy Colorado Day, Buffs! 🏔️ Let’s party like it’s 1876! 🎈On August 1, 1876, Colorado joined the Union, earning its nickname "Centennial State" for the centennial anniversary of American independence. CU Boulder alumni love calling this beautiful state home, adding to its rich history and vibrant culture. Did you know? CU Boulder was also founded in 1876, making it a historic year for both our state and our beloved university. Here’s to our Centennial State and all the Forever Buffs who proudly call it home!🖤💛 #ColoradoDay #CUBoulderAlumni #CentennialState #ForeverBuffs
