Campus Partners

Collaboration between the central marketing and communications team and campus partners is essential for conveying a consistent narrative about CU Boulder, strengthening its brand and advancing the university’s mission and vision.

Executive Leadership Communication Board

The Executive Leadership Communication Board (ELCB) brings together executive leaders from academic and administrative units and their senior-most communicator. The ELCB meets as a full group each quarter to align marketing and communication teams with top university initiatives, and to discuss results and insights from previous campaigns and how those insights inform future work.

The Communications Council meets every other month to align on time-bound marketing and communication efforts related to top university initiatives; to provide visibility to past, current and future content work; to identify opportunities for collaboration and reduce duplication; and to discuss audience, tactic and channel optimizations.
