Who We Are
A community for first-generation students
Tri-Alpha is an academic honor society that recognizes the achievements of first-generation college students.
Our chapter at Colorado School of Mines brings first-generation students together through community events, mentorship, leadership, service, and professional development.
We are here to celebrate our members’ accomplishments, help students build meaningful connections, and make sure first-generation students know they belong at Mines.
