And then, of course, there is the University of Colorado System
We have The University of Colorado, normally called CU, sometimes
called the Buffs, occasionally (really rarely) called cu boulder,
someties called other less complimentary things, but located in
Boulder (32 square miles surrounded by reality) and nontheless a
division 1 school that plays football, basketball, and has a club
hockey team.  CU is not to be confused with CC (Colorado College)
a small high quality liberal arts college in colorado springs.  The
university of colorado system has 4 campuses.  There is the afotrementioned
boulder campus, the University of colorado medical center (it does no
athletics) in denver, the university of colorado at denver (also
called CU-denver or CU-downtown) that has no athletics program, and
finally, there is the university of colorado at colorado springs (UCCS
for over 25 years to everybody except a minor few who have taken to
calling it CU-the springs) that has a division II athletics program
that meets title IX
