History Day

CU Anschutz celebrated its second annual History Day, honoring groundbreaking ‘firsts’ that shaped the campus. The program highlighted two transformative milestones: the Denver Chromosome Project and the creation of the Nurse Practitioner and CHA/PA programs — both national firsts that redefined care and education.Attendees heard from a panel of featured speakers, perused artifacts displayed by the Strauss Health Sciences Library and enjoyed afternoon tea.
