Colorado Shakespeare Festival
For more than five decades, summer evenings at the Mary Rippon Theatre have rung with laughter and lament as professional and amateur actors bewitch audiences. The Colorado Shakespeare Festival is the second longest running Shakespeare festival in the country, and in 1975 it became the seventh theatre in the world to perform the entire Shakespeare canon.
Campus Bells
The first University Bell was hung in the belfry of Old Main in 1878. It signaled class changes until 1926, when a large crack appeared during the celebratory ringing that followed a football victory over the Colorado School of Mines.
The carillon bells (a set of bells played by a keyboard) are located in Macky Auditorium and they can be heard ringing out across campus at the top of the hour.
