<p>Last July, something unprecedented in the 34-year satellite record happened: 98 percent of the Greenland Ice Sheet’s surface melted, compared to roughly 50 percent during an average summer. Snow that usually stays frozen and dry turned wet with melt water. Research led by the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences now shows last summer’s extreme melt could soon be the new normal.</p>

<p>Twelve ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß students have been offered Fulbright grants to pursue teaching, research and graduate studies abroad during the 2013-14 academic year, an all-time record for CU-¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß.</p>

<p>The ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß has been ranked No. 14 in the world on the scholarly impact of its journal publications, according to an analysis by the Centre for Science and Technology Studies at Leiden University in the Netherlands.</p>
<p>The Leiden Ranking analyzed the 500 universities with the largest number of publications recorded in Web of Science, a database of articles published in more than 12,000 journals that is maintained by Thomson Reuters.</p>

<p>A particular tumor suppressor gene that fights cancer cells does more than clamp down on unabated cell division -- the hallmark of the disease -- it also can help make cells more fit by allowing them to fend off stress, says a ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß study.</p>

<p>In an extensive survey of ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß seniors in 2012, an overwhelming majority of the nearly 3,000 respondents expressed positive views of their educational experiences at CU-¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß.</p>
<p>About four in five respondents reported satisfaction with their CU-¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß education. A similar proportion would recommend CU-¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß to a friend and nearly 98 percent of the seniors reported that their program of study met their educational goals.</p>

Since 1975, Fiske Planetarium has been the Johnny Appleseed of astronomy. Each year, 30,000 K-12 students and 4,000 ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß students go there to take a front-row seat on the universe. Soon, they’ll get a better, clearer and deeper view. The campus is renovating the planetarium, retiring its analog star projector and upgrading to a powerful star plus video system paired with a high-definition screen capable of achieving nearly eight times more resolution than the standard HD television, completely surrounding the audience with a 360-degree view.

<p>The sluggish recovery of U.S. jobs since the recession began is due to companies being mired in business uncertainty about national policies rather than other hiring and financial roadblocks, according to a ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß study.</p>
<p>Businesses are uncertain about the yet-to-be-realized costs of policies such as health care, tax reform and environmental cap and trade as regulations take shape and are implemented, according to lead author Sanjai Bhagat, a provost professor of finance at CU-¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß’s Leeds School of Business.</p>
