Dating back to 1934, Engineering Days is a special springtime ritual that brings Mines students and alumni together to celebrate Oredigger pride. E-Days ‘Round the World celebrates this tradition as Mines alums in their local communities raise a toast to their alma mater.

In April of this year, E-Days was kicked off with the Ore Cart Pull, a tradition where students pull an ore cart 7.5 miles down Colfax Avenue to the Colorado State Capitol in downtown Denver.
