What’s the TEA?
The Teacher Education Alliance (TEA) at Mines is a student club that serves as a forum for discussion of any education related issues. We offer support beyond high school and middle school teaching and are associated with the University Honors & Scholars Teach@Mines program. If you are on campus and are looking for a place to study, hang out, and connect with fellow Teach@Mines and University Honors & Scholars students, you can visit the Honors House, located at 1704 Illinois St. Feel free to contact the TEA president and/or leadership team with any questions.
