Re: FIRST Class of 2014, Where are we going?

This is too funny, only because that was exactly my list, 34 years ago. I was a NM semifinalist with an A average, but too lazy to write an essay. When I found out that MSU didn't require an essay, and they had what looked like a nice honors program, I applied, was accepted, and that was that. 4 years later I had my Biochemistry/Physiology degree, and set off into the wide world. Go Moo U! (I hear they also have a pretty good video game development program now, so I've tried to get my son to apply, but he's not interested in anything east of Colorado.)

FYI, I later became a computer programmer, then went to law school, and am now a very happily self-employed lawyer on Kauai, and mentor of the Kauaibots (go 2465!).

SO I had to laugh out loud when I read this list!

By the way, my son has applied to USC (his first choice), UC Santa Cruz, University of Denver, UH Manoa (total safety), and Digipen. He wants to do game programming. Was going to apply to Harvey Mudd but decided that his chance of getting in is miniscule. And who am I to fight him when he says he doesn't want to write more essays? ;-) No responses yet....
