[QUOTE="AlabamaBuzz, post: 48281, member: 906"] Yes, Tech is extremely difficult and depressing when you are there. I can remember the euphoria I would feel when my finals were over, no matter how I thought I did, and yes, most of the time, the finals would bring my class grade down, not UP. It is extremely important at GT for some reason to deflate GPA's, and I guess this is just part of what GT is all about. It is about survival, and if you get out of that place with a degree (thank the Lord I did), companies that hire you know they are getting a survivor who is determined and persistent and "battle-hardened". Heck, when I was there, we still had to get through "drown-proofing". From 1982-1985, we went to FB games to throw frisbees at the band members during halftime and just have a few minutes away from the pressure. Sad, but true. I love GT, and I always will. Like anything that makes you better, you have a tremendous appreciation for it when you look back on it. But with all of that said, I still wish we had a few more majors (that we still wanted to be top notch programs) that we could use to attract FB and BB players. Don't get me wrong. I want them to be REAL degrees that can help these young men, but I really do believe a "Technical Education" degree or a " technical broadcasting" degree for example, would not hurt our reputation if they were serious programs.
