As the University of Colorado Boulder Police Department (CUPD) prepared to recognize its seventy-five years of service, the CUPD Legacy Project was organized to facilitate the creation of a formalized collection of memorabilia and the processes necessary to maintain the collection. Additionally, to both honor their accomplishments and preserve their knowledge, past and present CUPD members were invited to participate in the creation of an oral history collection. The establishment of the CUPD Legacy Collection will facilitate access to and preservation of department history and encourage past and present members to share their knowledge through stories.
