The University of Colorado and Boulder police departments sent employees to an Ann Coulter event in California last weekend to help prepare the university for the controversial commentators appearance later this week.

Coulter is scheduled to appear at 7 p.m. Wednesday in Chem 140, at a speaking event hosted by conservative group Turning Point USA.

In preparation, CU spokesman Ryan Huff said the university sent two employees to Mountain View, Calif., where Coulter spoke at a private event. Boulder police spokeswoman Shannon Aulabaugh said Boulder police also sent one person.

Huff said the employees were able to watch a a well-attended event that occurred without disruption.

On occasion, we send staff to high-profile or controversial events before they make their stops at CU Boulder, Huff added.

That was the case ahead of the Dalai Lamas 2016 visit and our hosting of the 2015 Republican presidential debate. Theres no better preparation for hosting a new event than going to another location to see how that host agency manages it. That gives us a sense of what to expect from an operational standpoint and how to best provide hospitality to our attendees.
