CU cheerleaders meet alum in Baghdad
Four CU cheerleaders and the group’s spirit coordinator traveled to Iraq in late December in response to a request to entertain U.S. troops. Capt. Rebecca Lange (PolSci’00) (in the middle in the photo) greeted the group in Baghdad.

This place is a far cry from Pearl Street or the Hill, but it was here, among the hammocks and conch shells, that we met Carrie Gibaldo (EnvsSt ’06) and Emily Fahle (A&S ex’04), two former CU students who have achieved “Buff Life” status by combining adventure and service with strong shots of courage, empathy and humor.
