Re: Liberal Arts Colleges as viable institutions for Engineers

You know, just because a school is a state school does not mean it's huge.

South Dakota School of Mines and Technology (where I go) is a state school, and it's only got about 2500 students at a generous estimate. OTOH, it is in South Dakota...

As far as research, I don't know what the EEs and CSs are researching (ditto for the Computer Engineering majors), but the ME department is doing quite a bit in terms of manufacturing methods.
