What are your general comments?

Overall I had a favorable impression of the facilities and faculty. It did seem to me that the faculty was getting a little burned out on interviewing (I believe I was in one of the last interview groups). The students spoke very favorably about the new facilities and seemed to engage with the faculty in a positive way.

The faculty offices are in an entirely different building than the education buildings (they are somewhat far away. I knew the location of the new campus was in a 'bad' part of Denver but I didn't realize to what extend.
