CAMPUS INVOLVEMENT

Students who are involved in co-curricular activities perform better academically. We truly have something for everyone within our wide array of activities offered on campus.

Student Activities, Involvement & Leadership (SAIL)

The Office of SAIL provides countless opportunities for students to get connected to campus! SAIL supports more than 250 active student clubs and organizations, advises the Mines Activities Council (MAC), oversees our Fraternity and Sorority Life on campus, and provides leadership development opportunities to the Mines campus. SAIL also plans some of our greatest campus traditions including Celebration of Mines, Homecoming, and E-Days. These events showcase what it means to be an Oredigger and builds community amongst our faculty, staff and students. SAIL also encourages students to explore the local community through our discount ticket program including tickets to movie theatres, the Denver Zoo, Denver Aquarium, and more. For more information about our programs, visit our website: sail.mines.edu. Student Clubs and Organizations within SAIL

The Mines student clubs and organizations community involves over 250 registered student organizations that allow students to get involved, get connected, and ensure that every student has a place that they feel like they belong on the Mines campus. Through the student clubs and organizations community, students have the opportunity to learn a variety of skills, make lifelong friendships, and have fun! Students can do this through participating in an active student organization, joining a governing body such as the Board of Student Organizations (BSO), or creating a completely new student organization. The opportunities are endless! For more information about the student clubs and organizations community at the Colorado School of Mines, visit orgs.mines.edu.
