[GLLUG] computer science schools in michigan

[Melson, Paul]

When I was at Tech, we used to go to Marquette on the weekends to party.  It *is* the happening spot in the UP.  After all, Marquette had the only Taco Bell for hundreds of miles, not to mention cute girls, something sorely lacking at MTU. :-)

It is beautiful country up there.  Very unspoiled.  Summer classes are a must.  My only advice to anyone going to MTU for CS is to intern with IBM during winter semester - they ship you to Boca Raton, FL, which is a nice change of pace from the yooper winter.

PS - But, yeah, you'll get a better education at Tech than you would if you attended Not Much-of-a University. :-)

You mentioned NMU.  Don't go there unless you like the relative 
isolation and wilderness of the U.P--remember that Marquette only has 
about 30,000 people, and it's the largest city in the U.P.  If you *do* 
like the relative isolation and wilderness of the U.P, you can probably 
get a better education at MTU.
