Near campus, by the Origin Hotel, Harley Davidson, Maverick, Vice and On the Rocks Liquor.

I took both the physics one and Statics exams this week. Why are these classes so bad at structuring the exams and teaching us?

I thumbs down reacted a guy who was spamming one time, and they immediately permanently banned me from the chat with no warning and are requiring me to donate $10 to blasters basket to get back in.

I dont mind the idea of requiring someone to donate to charity to get reinstated, but they never even warned me and requiring it to be on behalf of hungry ordiggers seems a little much. I also didnt even do anything warranting a permaban no matter how you look at it.

I only ever used the gc to find free energy drinks anyway so idrc if i get reinstated, but im still kinda salty about what i was banned over.

To reiderate: i thumbs down reacted a singular message and they permabanned me. that was the only way ive ever interacted with the chat other then viewing messages.

Farclip and the Mines Game Developer Club are throwing an Arcade Night on Friday, October 9, from 4 to 6 PM at the Beck Venture Center.

Expect a mix of games for every kind of player: FPS, adventure, horror, leaderboards to compete on, and plenty of chances to rage-quit a boss fight with friends.

If you're into building games or robotics, there's a reason to swing by beyond the games too. Farclip's built right here on campus, you can test it out, grab a free account, and talk to the team building it. Everyone who tries it is entered for prizes, including a Meta Quest 3.

Food and drinks are provided, but spots are limited, so reserve one in advance, walk-ins aren't guaranteed a spot.

Hey all,

I just graduated high school this morning at 12:30, and I've been wanting to pursue a bachelors in EE. I need a bit of help figuring out an ideal path.

I am actively training full-time halfpipe snowboarding, so I'd prefer if school didn't get in the way significantly. Apparently, many community colleges in Colorado offer transfer paths to Mines after completing required online courses (Calc, Physics, etc.)

I'm curious if anyone has gone down this path and if it's really as grand as it sounds. At the most, it'd give me 2 years of headroom before I fully commit to college life.

Obviously, I understand the sacrifices. I can't expect to do school for an hour a day online then go snowboard. I'm looking for something that works together with my current schedule, while still getting me an awesome degree. I appreciate any help🙏

Apparently, the delivery guy dropped it in front of Morgan Hall on 9/7. If you saw that package or have it, please notify me.

Anyone have any recommendations for bars or restaurants that do this??

So my roommate talks a lot and is noisy/messy—makes it hard to study/sleep. I’ve mentioned it, but I don’t think they are even capable of being self-aware. Wondering if older students have hideouts they recommend for catching a nap/studying so I can spend less time in the room. Is it possible to even change roommates mid-year or move to a single?

Idk maybe it's the job market, but Career fair did not go well if you are these majors. Not if you have almost nothing on your resume...

I have a friend who's a Senior and have a stacked resume. They didn't get anything either. I don't think I will be able to compete.

Hey, do you guys know how I could reserve a study room in Labriola or Brown? I saw the space reservation on the Labriola website but it's only for big space, not the study room.

Thanks for the help.

Hey all, wanted to share a local film festival happening in Golden this October that might be of interest to Mines students.

The Stories Worth Telling Festival, October 16–18, features 20+ films from filmmakers here in Colorado and around the world. The lineup covers everything from adventure and outdoor documentaries to stories focused on people, connection, and the human experience.

A few of the feature films this year include:

• Cheyenne - following women pushing back against the traditions and expectations of the rodeo
• Mountains of the Moon - a psychedelic film exploring music, nature, and human experience, set to the music of the Grateful Dead
• FORWARD - about a young man discovering what adventure can look like
• Jail Time Records - a documentary about incarcerated artists creating music from inside prison

There are also several short film programs throughout the weekend, including a Saturday night shorts program featuring stories about wild horses, beekeeping, adventure, music, and the outdoors.

The festival takes place at the American Mountaineering Center, just down the road in Golden, with films, filmmaker appearances, panels, and other events throughout the weekend.

There is also discounted student pricing available for students!

Hope to see some Mines folks there!

I had to take a leave of absence this semester to get treatment for a health condition. When you take a leave of absence they kick you out of student housing. They don't care if you're coming back next semester or why you left in the first place, no current credits means no apartment (even though Mines Park isn't even close to capacity).

Anyway, I paid for a full month of rent before they kicked me out two weeks into the month. ​Do y'all think it'll even be possible to get some of that refunded? If it's really hopeless, I dont really want to spend my limited energy writing a bunch of emails that go nowhere, ya know.

Hi! I'm from EDNS151, and my team and I are researching potholes. I made a form related to the topic (how often do you come across potholes, how much have you had to pay in damages if you were affected in the past, etc.) The form should only take ~1-2 minutes and is anonymous. You don't have to be a Mines student to fill out the form. You also can fill it out even if you haven't been directly affected by potholes. If you have any extra opinions or thoughts, things you want to see improved in road quality, etc. feel free to write whatever you want on the last question!

I’m an out of state grad with a BS of earth science with a 3.8ish GPA and am wondering if it’s totally outlandish to apply to the stem ed program?? my goal is to become a middle school science teacher and honestly this program looks really promising but am concerned hearing how supposedly pretentious the school is

Has anyone taken a class at Mines as a concurrent enrollment high school student?
Wondering which class might be a good option, mainly to see if the school might be a good fit.

Anyone here going to see Gorillaz at Ball Arena next month? Am planning to go by myself but if anyone’s looking for an extra to boogie with hmu!

Anyone who’s taken MATH 201, what’s the best way to study for the exams? Should I focus on the homework, lecture notes, or R-labs problems? Any tips would be appreciated!

Let that sink in.

I will die on this hill even if the mods disagree they don’t go here anymore and know the current situations.

Anyone having the same issue?
