1. Most of the computer labs on campus are absolutely disgusting

   In my entire time at Mines, nearly every computer lab I have worked in has been very dirty. I think these computer labs, especially those in Alderson, need to be added to a cleaning schedule. If they already are on one, they need to be cleaned more frequently or someone needs to be in charge of making sure the cleaning gets done. With sickness already a massive problem students must deal with, the computers we are often required to be working on should not be as dirty as they are. I understand every computer lab isn't going to be spotless because rotation of students using the computers is so widespread, but some effort needs to go into this because it certainly isn't getting better by itself.

2. MAC no longer asking for student input (2019)

   In light of the recent release of the E-Days theme and the events, it seems like MAC is no longer asking the student body what it wants in terms of these events. E-Days is a hallowed event that brings students together and lets us relax for a single weekend. This event involves concerts that have (in the past) been at least voted on by the students and not even having the chance to put in an opinion makes it seem like MAC knows what is best for the student body. We should be able to decide how we want to spend our E-Days, not a select group of students that think they know best.
   Another concern is the talk of fees being attached to some of the historically free events during E-Days such as the carnival. I know its probably tempting to rake in the cash from students just trying to have a little fun, but these events make it possible for EVERY student to participate, especially if they don't have $40+ to shell out for a concert they don't even want to see. If MAC doesn't start to care more about what the student body wants, the participation in their events is going to plummet and the last fun event at Mines will just be another way for the school to siphon away more money from its students.

3. USG Deleting "What's Your Beef" Posts without Adressing Them

   A post was recently made here expressing student frustration at the slow pace the administration is taking to address serious student issues such as parking and mental health. It quickly received a lot of votes, but suddenly disappeared. Considering that there are several inappropriate and joke posts that have been here for ages, this seems suspect. If something about the post was deemed to be inappropriate, I understand, but that should have been voiced. Instead, the post was silently deleted.

   AdminMines USG (Undergraduate Student Government, Undergraduate Student Government) responded

   I can assure you, the post was not removed by USG through this account. It appears that it was marked as spam and removed by another user. We share the same concern for the deletion of the post. We will be looking into this more as well.

   Also, in regards to the last post, we have begun talks with administration in regards to the post and will keep students informed on our findings.

   We apologize for the deletion and will be looking into it immediately!

4. CS should stop scheduling multiple 400-level courses at the same time.

   Currently, Computer Science has 3 different 400-level classes in the 12:30-1:45 T/Th slot: Operating Systems, Simulations, and Networks II. I (and a lot of other people I know) would like to take multiple of these courses. However, Networks II is a special topics, and Simulations is fall-only. That means that even if we put off Operating Systems, which is offered both semesters, we may never have the opportunity to take all of these classes.

   There are barely any CS classes offered on MWF. Why are we double- and triple-scheduling courses in this one time slot when we have almost every time slot on MWF available with no 300 or 400 level courses at all?

5. Where my diploma at? - David (and everybody else)

   I think that the registrar should send out the PDF diplomas to all the seniors that graduated in May.

   I understand that the registrar is busy, but here are some numbers to show that it's wild that we haven't gotten them yet:

   Days since May 10th, 2019: 122
   Minus weekends (36 days): 86
   Days if they took two weeks off: 76

   If you assume that there was only one person in the registrar's office taking care of absolutely everything, I'd say maybe we'd lose 40 DAYS (1,600 working hours) to working on registration. That would leave 36 days. I understand the registrar does more than just that, they also schedule rooms and there are a lot of summer conferences and camps and such. Let's give them another 10 days (80 hours) for room scheduling. That leaves 26 days, or 208 working hours. Remember, this is assuming only ONE person is working in the registrar and handling these duties.

   There were ~963 graduates last semester. The diplomas aren't remade for each individual person with a different design or font, and the registrar has been tracking our progress and graduation requirements throughout our education (heck they told us during senior salute what our progress was) so forgive me if I'm wrong here, but it shouldn't take more than 100 working hours to confirm everything is right and be able to approve diplomas.

   Now, the registrar has a lot of responsibilities, and they do a lot of good work for the school and they're definitely hard workers. But this is making some extreme assumptions in order to try and understand why we don't have the PDF versions of our diplomas. I'm assuming they would have to send in the PDF version to the people that do the metal etching anyway, so it would be great if we could get some sort of timeline as to when we will get our PDF diplomas, if not our actual PDF diplomas.

6. During the summer there's no need to force us to pay for a parking pass

   Pretty simple really. The only reason that it's ok to make people pay for parking passes during the school year is because there's too many people and not enough spots. I get it. But during the summer there's always, always, spots available. Why can I not park in a half empty parking lot at the school I give thousands of dollars to to begin with, without paying for yet another fee??? If every other spot is available, clearly there's no need to enforce a monetary restriction on the parking spots. You guys are clearly just looking for another reason to scam money from students.

7. Delay and Cancellation Timing Announcements

   Mines said that they would announce a delay or closure at 5:30 am. This would have benefited the rec center student employees as well as the swim team who all got up and came to campus and opened the building which then had to be closed five minutes later. There should be more accountability for Mines to actually stick to their word especially since this closure was due to road conditions that the people who drove on had to drive on again, thus risking their safety. Since campus is closed they do not have the option to stay in a building unless they have access to one. The call should have been made when they said they would so that the students and employees effected could have actually benefited from this closure.

8. Clinic Parking

   There should be a place to park when visiting the clinic. When you're sick and near death, you don't feel like walking to the clinic, especially coming from Mines Park or other remote places on campus. Maybe a temporary hanging tag so we could park in front of Weaver?

9. Mines Needs to Improve Commuter Parking

   I know I'm not the only person to complain about parking at mines, but it is absolutely a joke. This morning I pulled into the A/AA parking lot with what I thought was plenty of time to find a spot and walk to class. However, I circled the entire lot with several cars behind me and I could not find a single spot. I drove to the other commuter lot, and over to the football field to try and find parking and I couldn't find anything.I eventually jut gave up and parked in downtown Golden. It's ridiculous to charge students $100 for a parking permit, with only a chance of them finding a spot in a decreasing number of commuter lots. Additionally, the general lots mostly seem to have spots, but the permits are nearly $300. This is unfair to students who can't afford to pay that extra $200, students who would rather not pay that extra money (you shouldn't be forced to), as well as students who don't live local. But for those who would like to pay the extra money, apparently the wait-list is hundreds long. We all know Golden is too expensive for most students to live in, and as a result Mines relies on commuter students. Essentially it feels like Mines is saying unless you're a very lucky commuter, you can afford to live in Golden, or you fork up the $300, you don't then good luck getting to class ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

11. Mines Park Noise from US-6 Rumble Strips

    City of Golden (CG) completed the US-6 and 19th intersection around the beginning of Fall 2017. When summer hit and we had to open our windows (no ac in our unit) we've realized that the rumble strips were creating excessive noise. Causing us to lose sleep in the night and forcing us to choose between living in a very hot or a very noisy unit in the morning.
    We've contacted CG and CDOT at the beginning of Fall 2018 so the issue can be remedied before summer. Apparently other residents in the area were suffering from the noise as well. We've been told that they did a general noise study but not specifically for the strips (see attached), and these type of extra noisy strips are known to affect locals. CG and CDOT did not fix the issue yet.
    I understand that the wildlife must be protected. I love seeing the elk herd in our area. However, there are alternative ways of warning the drivers and the animals without making the residents suffer.
    This is a noise pollution issue and Mines Administration and EHS dept should look into it and fix it before summer.

12. Homework Platforms

    Stop making us pay for individuals pay 65$ for each course to do our homework. I am willing to do all of the hard work but $180 dollars to do my homework, on two different platforms which suck (I have had to go to customer service once for Sapling and twice for Pearson with which I spent 2 hours on hold total). They dont work and the campus obviously doesn't care about low income students who never got the opportunity of a scholarship. I work just as hard but I shouldn't fail a course because I can't afford to pay an overpriced crappy platform just so yall dont have to pay TA's to grade homework. I have spent every single penny and often don't get to eat. Care about low income students, and at the very least try to make everything on one platform and not a whole bunch. Have options for students who literally spent every penny on tuition and can't even get the textbooks. The professors could care less about this.

13. A Good Lost and Found System

    Over my time here at mines I have lost my keys, wallet, and more clothing items than I can count. More often than not I have never been able to find them again because there is no cohesive lost and found system. If you lose something in a building you have to contact the building manager because each building has a different lost and found policy, but no building manager contact info is listed anywhere students can find it. You have to do this for every building your item could have been lost in, and if you lost something on campus outside of the buildings you have no option but to give up. This is a major issue because many buildings throw out or donate lost items shortly after they are turned in. Making a lost and found portal or even a document shared among every building's front desk would be an extremely easy project for USG to do and would be very helpful for students.

15. We should be composting on Campus

    If we are really about "Earth, Energy, and Environment" then we should give students the option to compost on campus. Both for students eating in the mines market and for students bringing packed lunches to school, we should have a compost option. The compost area could be placed on any of the schools land by Lookout and Mines park, or could be placed by clear creek where the school owns property that cannot be developed on from past contamination. Students could work for the school or earn volunteer hours turning the compost or moving it from pickup locations to the compost site. We could also bring local schools in to teach kids about composting and the importance of sustainable waste management to get the whole community involved. If we are willing to spend as much as we are on a parking structure, a little money for some composting equipment seems very manageable.

16. Parking permits should begin and end during the 1st week of classes (or on census day)

    The first order of business for returning students should NOT be renewing their parking permits. And students who are on campus over the summer should not be surprised on August 1st when they get a ticket for an expired permit. Get rid of the arbitrary August 1st date. Allow returning students to get settled and get funding for the semester straightened out before making them buy a parking permit.

17. Make K-lot more connected/accessible

    It's bad enough when you get stuck out in the K-lot, but the walk to campus feels extra long because the athletic complex is fenced off and locked. Although the distance is not a big issue, it would feel more like you are actually parking on campus if you could walk through campus to get to class. Unlock the gates, or make a designed walking path.

19. AP/IB classes should count HASS/LAIS/EBGN elective credit

    I do not understand why liberal arts AP/IB tests only count as free elective credits. There are so many HASS/EBGN elective credit hours required to graduate, and many AP/IB classes are parallel to the liberal arts electives provided here. Why wouldn't a 4 or a 5 on AP (or a 5-7 on IB) tests for classes like the following count?

    ~ English Literature and Composition
    ~ English Language and Composition
    ~ Macroeconomics (yes, this can count for EBGN 201, but only if you have received a 4 or a 5 on both this and Microeconomics)
    ~ Microeconomics (see above)
    ~ Psychology
    ~ United States Government and Politics
    ~ United States History
    ~ Human Geography
    ~ European History
    ~ World History

20. Peking Plate is Actually Inedible

    This is a cry for help.

    Today I was ridiculously hungry. So I went to Peking Plate for lunch. Huge mistake! The food was so bad that despite literal hunger pains I physically couldn't eat more than two bites before throwing it in the trash.
    Even when it was Habaneros, the food wasn't great. But it's pretty hard to screw up a burrito, so it was at least a reliable source of food energy. Now they're making us pay for ACTUAL GARBAGE. Also, it's the same people/ingredients/effort as before. If y'all are going to put Jalapenos in your "Chinese food", you might as well put them in a fucking apple pie.

    The problem, honestly, is Sodexo (famous suppliers of food to America's prison system); and though I realize that we're kind of stuck with this dining despot, can we at least have our shitty Chipotle back?
    I never realized it until today, but Habaneros' sloppy burritos were a sliver of light in the pit of darkness that is Mines Dining. I implore you, please bring it back. It's what the people want.

    It's what the people need...

    AdminMines USG (Undergraduate Student Government, Undergraduate Student Government) responded

    Good morning! Thank you for voicing your concern with us! Earlier this past semester, the junior class representatives sent out a survey asking people for feedback on Peking Plate and based off of that feedback and after coordinating with Sodexo, Peking Plate will not be returning this Spring 2019 semester. It will remain full-time Habaneros!

    Best, USG
