We rescued one of our labs from Chillicothe once. Other than St. Louis, and Hannibal (and driving Rt. 36) I have no clue as to what is where in Missouri.

Wow---Rolla, according to Missouri standards, must be a freaking metropolis! JK
Mapquest and an old warn-out Rand MacNally Atlas---but I would wonder if Rolla is on it, as the atlas is so old...and obviously, Rolla is the garden capital of Mid-America!

Just out of curiosity, what is the population of this bustling metropolis? And how bow big is UM--Rolla?
(Keep in mind that I did some of my grad work at ESU---Enormous State University (The Ohio State University---with an enrollment of around 60,000---none of which were particularly sober at any givien time...))
Did my undergrad work at a college of 1600---and beleive me, it was out in the middleof Nowheresville, Ohio.

"And it's one of the best engineering schools in the nation..."
this is very true. i recruit intern and coop engineers (EE, ME, CE) from rolla every year. some of the best engineers at my company attended UMR.
zaairman - are you looking for an intern or coop? we will be at the job fair in the fall to recruit for 2008. stop by the booth if you get a chance..
