What is CPO?

The College Programming Office, known to insiders as the CPO, works to create a sense of class community and institutional affinity to the College. From New Student Orientation through Senior Week, the CPO supports students as they move through their undergraduate careers by making available programs and initiatives specific to each class that provide significant markers and memories of their time at the University of Chicago.
