According to CU Boulder Today, Provost Russell Moore called for Bradley to take the position affective on Monday if the Board of Regents approve.

Risk factors for the fall focus on the COVID-19 pandemic and ensuring the safety of everyone. More than 1,500 people gave input on the plan in order to create the best possible solution.
Bradley is a former student affairs administrator. She earned her doctoral degree in educational leadership from the University of California, Davis as a first-generation college student.
