Salazar is a fifth-generation Coloradan, former U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, and U.S. Secretary of the Interior. With that experience and as former Colorado Attorney General and U.S. Senator, Ken Salazar shares powerful insights from his historic career in public service and highlights from his new book, “Borderlands: My Fight for an Inclusive America.” Don't miss your opportunity to hear his perspective on conservation, civil rights and building a more inclusive future for America.
“Ken Salazar’s experiences offer a starting point for meaningful conversations about leadership, opportunity and the role each of us can play in our communities,” said Aims Board of Trustees Member Rhonda Solis. “His story is inspirational and one that many in Colorado can identify with, including me.”
The event will be held at the Aims Welcome Center, 4901 W. 20th Street, in the Miller Auditorium on the Greeley Campus.
“Bringing people together to learn, exchange ideas and broaden their perspectives is central to our mission at Aims,” said Aims Community College CEO and President Dr. Leah L. Bornstein. “We are pleased to welcome Ken Salazar and his voice on inclusivity and public service.”
