Morgan Bazilian, director of the Payne Institute for Public Policy at Mines, is quoted. Bazilian cautioned that competition is keen for next-generation experts, noting that 100% of its students get multiple job offers. “If we don’t find ways to make [geothermal] exciting … we will fail to train the workforce of the future we need,” he said.

Ian Lange, an associate professor of economics and business at Mines, is interviewed for this National Public Radio program.“People have called (gas) a bridge fuel, because it (has a) lower CO2 content than coal. It’s pretty flexible in terms of its operations,” Lange said.

On the hunt for burial sites in Templeton Cemetery in Woodland Park, four students from the Mines applied 21st century technology to uncover 19th century graves. With ground penetrating radar, electromagnetic device and a GPS system, the students found clues to graves of the city’s pioneers who contributed to the development of Woodland Park. “We are seeing if the soil is disturbed; over here we can already see some indentations,” said Anna Nichols, who with Mia Jungman, Alexis Herr and Jim Gabriel spent two days at the cemetery.

The goal of the three-year program is to bring energy efficiency to low-income families and communities. “It’s a big difference,” one resident says. Paulo Tabares-Velasco, Mines associate professor of mechanical engineering and the project’s lead researcher, is quoted.

Morgan Bazilian, director of the Mines Payne Institute for Public Policy, co-authored this article outlining the challenges associated with a minerals deal being negotiated with Ukraine. The agreement would obligate Ukraine to pay 50 percent of the proceeds from the “future monetization of all relevant Ukrainian Government-owned natural resource assets” to a fund that the two countries would co-own.

The blood drive is conducted to honor Jennifer Rotramel-Ronhovde, a member of the Sigma Kappa Zeta Pi chapter who died from leukemia. The drive, now in its 12th year, is done to raise awareness about leukemia and help those like Rotramel-Ronhovde find donors.

Mines' Sigma Kappa Zeta Pi chapter's stem cell donation drive is profiled. The drive is conducted in honor of Mines alumna Jennifer Rotramel-Ronhovde, who was diagnosed with leukemia in 2011. The annual drive is done to raise awareness about leukemia and help those like Rotramel-Ronhovde find donors.

Rod Eggert, deputy director of the Critical Materials Innovation Hub at Mines, is quoted in this article examining Ukraine's critical minerals. “Ukraine has significant mineral potential, but how large that potential is, we simply don’t know,” said Eggert,

Morgan Bazilian, director of the Payne Institute for Public Policy at Mines, is quoted. This “is one of the only areas of sort of rough bipartisan agreement—that is that these minerals and metals are crucial for energy, but also national security and consumer goods and the overall economy,” said Bazilian. “They feature heavily in the economic war between China and the United States.”

Angel Abbud-Madrid, professor of practice in Mechanical Engineering and director of the Center for Space Resources at Mines, is interviewed by Tamara Chuang. “Lowering the cost is key,” Abbud-Madrid said. “The moment you lower (the cost of) access to space, things are going to start happening. Just like on Earth. It has been so expensive that only a few countries have gone and only about 600 people have gone out to space.”
