[QUOTE="CrackerJacket, post: 288998, member: 712"] IMO, the most telling point in the reditor's post is our smaller variety of majors than the ESUs (enormous state universities, i.e., football factories). GT offers three dozen different Bachelors degrees, give or take a few. The typical ESU offers in excess of 120 different Bachelors degrees, and most of the ones I've checked offer > 150. All other things being equal, the schools with broader offerings would find it easier to attract SAs. Another interesting point is the content of comparative programs. Take BS in Psych for example. GT's requires calc, two programs at other schools I've checked do not. Business administration is another example. I know a former SA who recently graduated with a business admin degree from a public university in the south; he didn't have a calc requirement. I'm not arguing for GT to soften our degrees, I'm just pointing out differences. Ours is the road less traveled, and it makes a difference. The other way is a four-year decision - it might be more fun over that period. Our way is the forty-year decision - it'll probably give you a chance at a better life. That's why I have great admiration for Tech SAs. I'm old enough to be their grandpa, but they are my heroes. [/QUOTE]
