[quote=Anonymous]Not for the faint of heart, but my CS kid loves the fast pace, deep dive into fewer subjects at a time. Likes that you can take your course in any order you want. Likes the true week off between 7-week quarters: you finished finals and have not started the next classes yet. Likes that study abroad is research and project driven. Classmates are collaborative, not cut throat.

Has made a lot of great friends who are smart, creative, interesting people. Everyone seems to be involved in multiple activities. Lots of arts and humanities clubs, which is nice at an engineering school. Sports and Greek are present and available, but not ubiquitous or dominant.

Says the professors are interesting people in and out of class. Most have done more than academia, so they also have interesting industry experience to draw on and share.

Doesn't like the main cafeteria food, but likes all the other options. Nice dorms; state of the art tech; small enough to walk everywhere, safe campus. Sometimes complains about peripheral administrative stuff. Easy access with planes, trains, and automobiles.[/quote]
