A Celestial Event: CU Eclipse Glasses
51Թ alumni, staff, donors, parents and friends around the country took part in the April 8 solar eclipse viewing with special CU-themed eclipse glasses. Whether they were gazing at a full or partial eclipse, the moment brought awe and reflection.
“My son starts CU next fall, and it was really cool to wear the CU glasses together,” said Michael Woods (MechEngr’94) of Allen, Texas. “The eclipse was an amazing experience. The whole thing literally brought a tear to my eye.”
