Kyle Boyle is one of UCCS' outstanding alumni volunteers. Boyle, '18, is from Crested Butte and has made a lasting impact on UCCS with the contributions of his time and talent.
Boyle came to Colorado Springs to pursue his education in business management at UCCS, which Boyle described as "the perfect fit." While a student, Boyle had a multitude of experiences, with one that particularly stands out. Boyle says his favorite and most significant activity was working as the station manager for the campus radio station, UCCS Radio. Boyle was able to learn as a leader, make friends, and experiment with new ideas with mentors to guide him.
Boyle got involved with the UCCS Alumni and Friend Volunteer program by reviewing student applications for the Kane Scholarship, as Boyle was a previous winner of this award. Since then, Boyle has participated in numerous volunteer opportunities, setting an example for other alumni and friends. Boyle wants others to know the sense of pride "towards self, community, and the organization" that comes when volunteering for UCCS. He believes others should be "hungry to stay involved" as it makes a larger impact than many realize.
Boyle participated in the two-year Fellowship program at El Pomar Foundation after graduating from UCCS. He remains at the foundation serving as an IT and Media Specialist. Boyle says he wants to continue volunteering at UCCS and building bonds to better the community. "Others should be aware of the volunteer opportunities at UCCS and take initiative to pick things that can benefit both them and UCCS," he said.
