yes it is, but it's a very good trade school, and I wouldn't have
thought
less of you for sending your son there.
Some of its graduates are every bit as capable as the IT.

You're right. We have a few friends that went there (and know 2 kids
that are there now).


Not to bust your bubble or anything, but Stevens IT, while a great
school,
is a bit further down the most recent list than #2.


Well, that's what the Stevens people told us.
He only went to SIT for 1 year, then transfered to Penn State.

Ah geez! Lehigh told us we wuz the best! Now I don't know who to believe!!

Another great engineering school. When I was stationed at the nuclear plant,
I was surrounded by Penn State engineers. Man, could they drink!

My Dad went to Penn State for meteorology way back in the olden days after
the War....but he never said anything about the drinking...maybe it was
limited to the Engineering Dept.

I beseech you do not boast, with arrogance don't toast,
Hubristically inferring volts won't find you,
For I've seen what's left of men, when God trickle charges them,
A smoking heap of flesh, the smell of stew.

By other posters I've been jolted, though you're first to wish me
bolted,
For bringing up the topic of this force,
Just remember if I'm gaffed,
I'll still have the final laugh,
'Cause your CD buying public's just been halved.

The horse down the street disintegrated and all that was left were his shoes

all of the survivor reports I've seen looked something like this: "I didn't
feel a thing, I woke up and my shirt was smoking."
