Special Events Committee
In 1999, the CSU-Pueblo Concert Committee was
formed by a referendum enacted by the student body,
which proposed a concert fee in order to bring
nationally recognized musical talent to the campus of
CSU-Pueblo. The fee was established to aid in
retention efforts of the University and to enhance the
quality of campus life. In the spring of 2001, the fee
was changed to a permanent fee and renamed the
Special Events Fee.
The Special Events Fee brings nationally recognized
speakers, musical talent and performing arts events to
the campus of CSU-Pueblo. In addition, the fee may
be used to fund special events as designated by the
Special Events Committee. Artists/performers
sponsored by the committee include: Jimmy Eat World,
Taking Back Sunday, Nelly, Sum 41, Eve 6, Busta
Rhymes, The Toasters, Dr. Maya Angelou, Second
City Comedy Club, Madrigal Dinner, and many more.
