Caltech or MIT?

[Byron In Exile]

Pick one.

 

[Spryer69]

MIT...(<-- so the message is long enough. sheesh)

 

[Byron In Exile]

Feynman.

Case closed.

 

[thør]

Feynman 's dead.

However, if you have to pick one or the other for grad school, pick the one where it doesn't snow. Snow, as much as I like it, gets in the way when you're busting ass at school.

Solid reasoning.

Welcome to Pasadena, CA.

I went to 2 Big10 schools in the upper midwest, both got plenty of snow. It never really seemed to bother me, but then again that was a decade ago and most of my research was out in the Caribbean during the winter.

..huh. I guess my argument is invalid

 

[Byron In Exile]

And there's Tommy's.

And the Huntington Library.

 

[RjThoughts]

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

It's alright.

We and Stephen Hawking accept you.

Because that's what Caltech does, when it's not being awesome and stuff.

"Oh yes, I am ready to kick this motherfucker in."

Caltech...

"Ready for me to drop some science on your ass? Stephen Hawking is in full effect..."

"Don't step to me, I'll pop you like a zit"

MIT punks dying left and right
don't try to run, there's nowhere to hide
'cause all my shootings be drive-bys

hahaha Your acceptance isn't necessary, but it is still appreciated.

It's okay.

It's a joke, in the end.

But Caltech is clearly best.

It's all a joke. no worries.

At this point I am swayed more toward MIT. I took classes there, lived and worked, hung out in the AI lab, knew people who taught and/or graduated from there, and I am comfortable with the brass rat. I was first on the internet, played with LISP machines, learned to juggle, and all sorts of cool things at MIT.

Tim Berners-Lee ,without whom we would not be here on Lit, is at MIT.

The only real experience I have had with CalTech is with one of their supporters trying to make me agree that MIT sucked.

Stephen Hawking is at Cambridge University.
Oxford vs. Cambridge, anyone?

The college with the blue shade named after them.

oh and Byron, guess where Feynman graduated from?

 

[neci]

technology smechmology

i'm taking the cake and eating it at home.

i'd send the kids to the west coast, had i the choice. the safety net is already built in out there.

Mine was in Massuchusetts, an MIT graduate, no less

I attended high school, was a Varsity Club member with, an MIT graduate. He's a particle physicist working with NASA. I am a good friend - since we were young - with an RPI graduate who works for IBM. He makes mucho money and travels around the world

 

[JohnnySavage]

I went through MIT.


I was in a car at the time, but it still counts.

smart babies. i told him to aim for the stars, and he replied, how about that nebula. we haven't started with the standardized testing yet. the baby just wants to fight fires and save kitties from the tops of trees. she'll be president one day. *nods*

Nice! I tried fighting fires for a while, it was interesting, but my lungs weren't up to it.
I could get smoke inhalation post fire from my Nomex jacket.

I meant my safety net not babies.
