Jack O'Mines
In 1874, an engineering and science university was established in Golden following the discovery of gold in Colorado, and a rapid expansion of mining. Colorado School of Mines is still regarded today as a highly regarded university and students attend from around the world.
"Jack is my ode to the little guy. Those hard working miners who humbly worked away under ground, both here and in other mining vicinities. Before there was any other industry here in Golden, it was a mining town." ~ C. Lóren Morrison
