Mechanical Engineering. And there isn't much to show you... You can walk from one side of the campus (east to west) to another in about 5 mins. 15 mins if you go north to south. Any thoughts on joining a fraternity? I never thought I would, but I did (Sigma Chi). It's kinda necessary down here to survive and not go crazy. I love it so far. What else do ya wanna know?

And on extremely rare occassions you'll even see an attractive woman on this walk......

Don't get excited though -- it's probably just someone's sister who is visiting him on campus for the afternoon......

Oh yeah, there's seriously about 25 good looking girls on campus. And most of them have boyfriends.

There's about 5500 students. 3 or 4 to one guy/girl ratio. Tons of foreigners too, they're all here on petroleum engineering scholarships.

I took my tour there in the fall and know how small it is. It is kind of sad but it is one of the best schools. I quickly made the observation that any of the females that i saw were not the best looking.Luckly for me i only live about an hour and a half away so its not to bad a trip back home if i need to. When i took the tour of the housing i couldnt understand the guy bc he barely spoke english. I just thought i would introduce myself so maybe i could know one person on campus by the time i get there. I should be viting at the end of feburary to take the pro tour or whatever it is called and to take my placement test. Any tips on the test? thanks

FYI: On the trig part of the test, I think I got like 3 out of 25 answers right. And I was currently taking trig. It was straight out of Calc 3. It SUCKED! Other than that, no tips really. What housing did they show you? The Residential college? Figures. They show you the good rooms. TJ Hall is mold central. It sucks. The Quad isn't too bad. I started out in the Quad in Farrar Co-Op. It was pretty nice, but the guys on the floor sucked. I lived there for a week and a half before I moved out to my fraternity (Sigma Chi).

It depends what fraternity. Different ones do differnet things (Initiations, Hazing, etc). And its cheaper than the dorms.

Actually, I think that was you and your "threesome" that you were talking about the other night.
