PHOTOS: A look back at 60 years of excellence

For six decades, MSU Denver has been more than a university — it has been a catalyst for transformation. 

Metropolitan State University of Denver opened its doors in 1965 with a bold mission: to provide accessible education and transformative opportunity. Now, the University is celebrating 60 years of excellence and remains true to that mission.
