As an individual who greatly benefits from in-person instruction and coursework, I wanted to take a moment to thank our campus community as a whole for their selflessness and compliance with the oredigger promise. After hearing the news that numerous other universities were forced to return to remote learning within weeks of starting the new semester, I feared that our own school would soon have to return to remote delivery, as well. For me, this would likely mean compromised grades and a semester-long struggle ahead. However, it is now fall break, and I can still happily attend all of my labs and interact with faculty and fellow students here on campus. This would not be possible without a collective, community-wide effort involving all hands on deck. From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone involved with the Mines community for wearing a mask. My grades and my spirits are up because of you :)As an individual who greatly benefits from in-person instruction and coursework, I wanted to take a moment to thank our campus community as a whole for their selflessness and compliance with the oredigger promise.

I want to give a shoutout to all of the student employees who work in the Rec. Sports Department. They have done an amazing job this semester operating Intramurals, Club Sports, Fitness, Aquatics, the Student Rec. Center and the Outdoor Rec. Center. This semester has brought lots of change and challenges; regardless the student employees of Rec. Sports have done their very best to provide the campus community with the finest possible recreational opportunities. Thank you for all of your...
