| Lucifer, I agree. Michigan needs to improve its status in the Sciences and do something about having Novel Prize winners work on campus. That will not necessarily improve the university, but it will improve its image. There is no reason Michigan cannot be as good in the Sciences as it is in the Humanities or the Social Sciences. As it stands, the Sciences are good (Michigan is ranked close to the top 10 in Computer Sciences, Biology and Physics and in the top 10 in Mathematics and Geology), but compared to the Humanities or the Social Sciences, we are lacking.
DStark, I agree about advising at Michigan. We lag in that department too. There is no reason we cannot improve here. We should develop a system that is more effective and proactive.
Keep 'em coming folks. Not everything about Michigan is good. |
