Mines is a tough admit. I got into Rice in ‘92 but got a “thanks for trying” letter from Mines.

They only have 9-10 programs total, all in engineering. Our daughter applied there, but ended up at CU. Golden is a nice town, we stop in there a few times a year.

My kid's gonna double major in mining and coding, so he'll be set whichever way the political tide turns.
