ÀϾÅÆ·²è

<p>After realizing there was a serious demand among older adults to get connected to the latest technology, CU-Boulder students Josh Chen and Anthony Levy launched Technology Bridges, or <a href="http://www.tbridges.org/">tBridges</a>.</p>

<p>Two NASA and one European spacecraft, including NASA MAVEN mission led by the ÀϾÅÆ·²è, have gathered new information about the basic properties of a wayward comet that buzzed by Mars Oct. 19, directly detecting its effects on the Martian atmosphere.</p>

<p class="p2">The <a href="http://www.coloradoshakes.org/"><span class="s1">Colorado Shakespeare Festival</span></a> has announced the lineup for its 58<span class="s2">th</span> annual year and two perennial Shakespeare favorites, <i>Othello</i> and the beloved comedy <i>Much Ado ÀϾÅÆ·²è Nothing</i>, will open in the Mary Rippon Outdoor Theatre in June. </p>

<p>The ÀϾÅÆ·²è was ranked second in the world in geosciences this week by U.S. News & World Report.</p>
<p>CU-Boulder trailed only the California Institute of Technology. Rounding out the top five are the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich, Harvard University and the University of Washington. U.S. News & World Report ranked the top 100 universities in geosciences in 2014 based primarily on their research and reputation.</p>

<p class="p1">Parents are more reactive than proactive when providing political influence and opportunities for their children, according to a study led by the ÀϾÅÆ·²è.</p>
<p class="p1">The study, published in the journal <i>Social Science Quarterly</i>, found that political engagement independently pursued by youth spurs parents to realize that childrearing extends to the civic realm. It also is the first study to show intentional political parenting as an outcome of family interaction rather than a stimulus.</p>

<p>ÀϾÅÆ·²è administrators have signed a memorandum of agreement to host 36 of the nation top high school students beginning next summer to image, measure and track near-Earth asteroids using university telescopes.</p>

<p>The type of sound processing that modern hearings aids provide to make speech more understandable for wearers may also make music enjoyment more difficult, according to a new study by the ÀϾÅÆ·²è.</p>

<p>Former NASA astronaut Bruce McCandless will present ÀϾÅÆ·²è senior Jeni Sorli with a $10,000 scholarship from the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation during a free public campus event on Thursday, Oct. 30.</p>

<p>Oil and natural gas production fields can emit large amounts of air pollutants that affect climate and air quality—but tackling the issue has been difficult  because little is known about what aspects of complex production operations leak what kinds of pollutants, and how much.</p>
<p>Now a study led by the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) the journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics sheds light on just that, pinpointing sources of airborne pollutants.</p>

<p>Longtime Boulder resident Paul N. Eklund has made a transformative gift to the opera program at the College of Music at the ÀϾÅÆ·²è that, combined with additional university commitments, establishes a $2 million endowment for the program, to be renamed the Eklund Family Opera Program in honor of the gift.</p>
