I can't comment, but I can tell you that I currently regret having spent the last 3.5 years of my life in one of the top engineering programs in the world (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign). If this is considered "education" these days, count me out. I can honestly learn more on Wikipedia and Hacker News. What a waste of $100,000.
- basugasubaku 16y agoThat's kind of sad. UIUC is reputed to have one of the best CS programs in the world. Are you in CS?
- guynamedloren 16y agoNo, they have a unique hybrid program in the College of Engineering that combines engineering and business. Stupidly, they call it general engineering (I have no idea why), but they tout it within the University as the engineering program for entrepreneurs. Unfortunately I never met any other entrepreneurial minded students in the program, which is kind of odd. In retrospect, I wish I went with computer science, but you would assume that any program within UIUC College of Engineering would be world class.
