Michelle Marks

CU Denver Chancellor since July 2020, Michelle A. Marks is an innovator dedicated to making higher education equitable for the good of society. She spent her first 100 days on the job listening to the CU Denver community and in 2021 catalyzed the community to develop CU Denver’s 2030 Strategic Plan.

"CU Denver is the essential institution to meet this moment. We're a pioneer of inclusive learning. We're young and innovative, embodying the curiosity, kindness, and ambition of the Rocky Mountain spirit. And we believe that redefining the urban public research university is the most important thing we can do for higher education and for the future of America. "
