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.

This semester has altered their job duties in many ways, and they have remained flexible and understanding throughout all of the uncertainty. They continue to be reliable, present, help each other, wear masks and clean, and helped support the classrooms and professors. They...
