This is an incredibly informative thread. The only thing annoying is your comment.

Relax. No problem with the thread. Humorous thread title with similarities to two others

Worcester isn't as horrible as Troy.


Also, I've heard less than great things about RPI's admin. WPI seems to go further to foster community and also seems to have a better gender balance.

Yes, COVID era was rough.


NYT did an incredibly thoughtful long-form piece on this, now available as a podcast. I was moved and very impressed by WPI’s response (I have no connection to WPI, other than knowing a kid who recently started there).

Definitely worth a listen for anyone who is concerned about the stresses on this generation:
