100 Years in the Making
The CMU Century Project is the driving factor behind a year of celebrating Colorado Mesa University's 100th anniversary. The CMU Century Project is led by the Steering Committee and broken into six key sub-committees responsible for planning, executing and implementing the century year programming.
As we reflect on Colorado Mesa University's rich history, the CMU Century Project is committed to commemorating our legacy, celebrating the remarkable achievements of our students and faculty, and envisioning an inspiring path forward.
Launching in August 2025, the 2025-2026 academic year will be a transformative moment for the CMU community. Together, we will honor our shared past, celebrate the unique qualities that define CMU and embrace the shared vision that will shape the next 100 years of excellence.
