(Dec. 5, 2008) UC Denver students, staff and faculty braved icy winds before the crack of dawn Friday to greet the day with ABC’s Good Morning America. Selected by ABC as one of three American cities known for their holiday festivities, Denver was featured in-studio as Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper unveiled the city’s holiday window display and at the pep rally at Union Station.
