    No ulterior motive to "correlate" here! Heh.

    C'mon, let's not have 80% Harvard and Stanford---unless that's really the case.
    Nothin' wrong with Long Beach Community College or East Tennessee State.

    Maybe you could give a brief summary of what sticks in your mind about the place(s) where you blew all those all-nighters.

    You can throw in sorority/fraternity membership, too, if you want.

    I graduated from Cornell University in Ithaca, NY last May with an engineering degree.

    It was... very cold.

    THE University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Class of '88 with a BA in, ahem, German Literature.

    I have also been an employee of UNC Chapel Hill since June of '98, currently as a computer jockey in their server farm.

    Also attended NYU for a semester of grad school before dropping out for purely financial reasons, half-heartedly pursuing an MA in Linguistics.

    Spent a year at the Technische Universitaet Berlin and a summer at the Village du Benin language institute in Lome, Togo as an exchange student..

    Purdue University - cold and windy! The Co-Rec was a great place to play basketball.

    Math/Physics BS, PhD (I couldn't leave)

    Woops, forgot the years. Started in 1961. Finally left in 1974 with a couple of years away.

    Penn State. In the winter big gobs of slush would fall from the sky and dribble right down my neck causing me to dive back into my heated water bed for the day. I immediately took a job where the climate suits my clothes, the water tastes like wine, and I never looked back!

    I hadn't thought of that famous alumnus in years. At least my vision is a tad better than his.

    Right at the bottom of the best hiking bluff, and near the best bike trails in the state of Wisconsin. The splendor of nature was mine, and I was in excellent shape after all that biking. Great for midterm stress relief. I'd go back in a second. Half a second! Too bad the job market in my field is so weak there.

    It's really hot here. And sticky. And basketball is king of all sports- pure mania happens here in March, complete with burning benches and K-ville undergrads.
    The campus is something else. Absolutely gorgeous with some amazing architecture. It's just a shame my experiences here haven't lived up to what I was expecting.
