§ 23-40-102 — Name of institution changed

(1) The state school at Greeley,
referred to under the name and title of the Colorado state college of education at
Greeley by article 6 of chapter 124, CRS 53, and amendments thereto, and under
the name and title of the Colorado state college by this article, after May 1, 1970,
shall be designated under the name and title of the university of northern
Colorado; but the legal effect of any statute designating such institution by any
other name or property rights acquired and obligations incurred under any other
name prior to May 1, 1970, shall not be impaired hereby.

(2) The intent of the general assembly in making the name change provided
for in subsection (1) of this section is to recognize and affirm the university status of
what was formerly known as Colorado state college and to be known in the future
as the university of northern Colorado without changing the present function of
such institution as an institution of higher education primarily concerned with the
preparation of teachers at all educational levels.
