Rose is number 1 yet again. What does this mean? To me probably nothing since I’m already gainfully employed for next year and don’t need to rely on the fact that Rose is a good school, well perhaps maybe for grad school. I was very afraid we weren’t going to get it this year especially after the reign of our now fired, err I mean resigned president Jack Midgley. When your school as a massive protest rally as well as a slew of resignations slash firings you begin to have your doubts. The one major advantage of winning this title 7 years in a row is the national recognition. Rose is still relatively unknown but the more people talk about it, means more people will apply. More people means more girls and we all know Rose needs more girls. Why go in to political science or art history when you could be an Engineer whoopee!!! Perhaps we could add a Fashion school to Rose Hulman, I mean hell fashion is just like engineering you have to measure and uh cut stuff. Plus there are lots of pretty colors.
Some of you potential freshman out there might not be sure if you should become an engineer or not. So in order to help you make a decision I have stolen a quick survey, if you answer yes to any of these questions you probably should consider coming to Rose.
