[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad went to engineering school many years ago, and on the first day was told -- look to your left, look to your right, they will BOTH be gone by graduation. Obviously, that doesn't work from a basic math perspective, but the point was made. I think the drop out rate literally was about 2/3. So at least things are a little more supportive than they once were. [/quote] I really appreciated my freshman orientation at MIT for not doing this. In fact, they specifically said they were not going to do the look left, look right thing. Instead the message was if you’re here, you can do the work, now go do great things. [/quote]
