While the majority of collaboration is used to fund graduate students. There are resources that help students branch out and make lasting connections
=== CSM 101 Pathways Class Revision ===
CSM 101 is a required class for first years and transfer students, which aims to teach students about the various opportunities and resources on campus. This class aims to promote friendship between the peer mentors who teach the class and the students taking the class. However, students have felt that the class did not signifcantly help in either of the ways listed above. This project aims to revise the class by putting students with similar interests in the same class. Those students would then have the opportunity to all work on a project with the theme of their class. Students could list their interests before enrolling to find a class that fits best to their interests. Alumni from the classes can come back to teach other students.
This project would put like-minded students together, forming stronger bonds that may last throughout their time at Mines. Furthermore, it has the opportunity to allow students to have an outlet to express themselves. To do this, we would need approval from the coordinators of this program. This is organized by the Spring 2019 cohort.
