Tava Quad

In the heart of the Colorado College Campus

Tava, meaning "Sun Mountain," is the name used by the Tabeguache Band of the Ute People for Pikes Peak. Look west, and you'll see this magnificent mountain. Today, 49 tribes maintain ongoing connections to the land that is now Colorado. In the fall of 2017, a group of Colorado College Native faculty and staff initiated a process to "reclaim the space on campus" and create a space honoring and named for Indigenous peoples.
