2023-2024 is the Year of Democracy and Civic Engagement
The Thematic Year is a central university initiative that serves to highlight the incredible research, programs, academic initiatives, students, faculty and staff who are accomplishing extraordinary things at CSU. Having a rotating annual theme provides the opportunity for the university to focus on major world initiatives that cross through and between all departments and colleges which, in turn, assists in stimulating additional multidisciplinary work at Colorado State.
In the Department of English, we are embracing the Thematic Year in the classroom, among our community, and in our research and creative artistry. On our new webpage, you’ll find a sampling of the connections our faculty, students, and staff are making to impact and elevate this year’s theme.
