BOULDER — The University of Colorado men's basketball program, renowned for recruiting top talent, and Respondology, a Boulder-based company founded by digital veterans to eradicate online hate, abuse and spam, have announced the nation's first collegiate partnership that will protect both players and fans from hate and abuse on social media.

This partnership comes in direct alignment with the Colorado Athletic Department's vision and mission, by providing a world-class experience and developing the WHOLE student-athlete; a focus on Wellness, Health and Optimal Life Experience.

As the Colorado men's basketball team continues to compete on a national stage, it increases the exposure to the toxicity that is prevalent on social media in the world of sports, particularly collegiate athletics.
