    My granddaughter just applied there (Rose Hulman). Was accepted, I believe, but made another choice. I was a little disapointed; thought it seemed to be an excellent school.

    High school grad with regents degree in science and math. Directly to the Coast Guard where i learnde to operate high pressure Boilers. From there to the insurance industry as a commissioned National Board Inspector. All suring this time nites at Community college but no degree. I do not recommend that approach for anyone. Put my daughter thru Marist College and the son went the IBEW apprentist route and is now a journeman Electriction.
    HKU is a tough place to get a degree from and I'm still working on it.
    I also am more than half way finished getting my CPCU and AU which is insurance industry crap.

    Wes,

    I did my doctorate at Northwestern but lived in downtown Chicago proper. I didn't see much of Evanston other than a bit of the downtown area within walking distance of the campus. Never did go to D&D finer foods, that I can recall. My wife was at dental school at UIC, hence why we were living downtown....driving is second nature to me. She abhores a commute longer than 5 or 10 minutes.
