In Action

The DU 4D Experience: Scaled to All and Tailored to Each A DU education—rooted in the 4D Experience— goes beyond a diploma. Setting a new standard across higher education, it grounds our graduates as well-rounded, resilient and resourceful adults capable of thriving in an ever-changing world. DU’s unique, personalized-at-scale 4D Experience equips every DU graduate for long-term transformative impact as dynamic leaders who cultivate purpose and meaning in whatever life and career paths they choose.

Creating the 4D Experience at James C. Kennedy Mountain Campus

Philanthropy fuels the Kennedy Mountain Campus (KMC). Together, DU’s urban and mountain campuses offer an academic and character-enriching university experience that’s unlike any other in the U.S. – and perhaps in the world. Made possible by a transformational gift from honorary life trustee James C. Kennedy (BSBA ’70), and with additional gifts from Andy (BSBA ’70) and Barbara Taylor (for programming and operations) and trustee John (BA ’78) and Jacolyn Bucksbaum (to create an activity hub) the KMC sparks creativity, reflection and character development in the great outdoors, an essential part of the 4D Experience.

Through your gifts to the 4D Experience, you empower all DU students to hone their character exploration at KMC, find meaningful mentorships that support their career goals and more. Learn how you can be The Denver Difference for 4D at denverdifference.org
