| I'm sad to say that I couldn't find you, but I did look around. I had a feeling you'd be one of the guys carrying the big banner for CS...but EE started leaving and I got confused, didn't know whether to hunt down Flopsy or actually go to do something productive. If you saw a guy wearing a band jacket that said "...aliso" on the back, it was probably me.
By the way...did you end up helping out at the parking lot in the morning, or did you end up sleeping in?  | |

I went back to my room after the DARPA Grand Challenge lecture. The 5th-year CS student (Shaun) informed me that he had everything under control and that my work was essentially done for the day. | |

I would say you have to be in the top 30-40% of the class to pull off a minimum 3.00 GPA... For reference, both of the Electrical Engineering classes I took (EE 1 and EE 2) curved the class to a B- (2.70) median which kept a 3.00 away from most students in the class. | |

| Do a lot of engineering students choose to participate in the Freshman Clusters? Do you know if it would be more of a hassle for scheduling the require classes if an engineering student enrolled in a Freshman Cluster? Would you recommend it with the engineering course load? | |

In short, no, yes, and no. Engineers have slightly different GE requirements and don't really need a cluster to fill it. I don't know too many engineers who took a cluster, and it will definitely make things harder to schedule as an engineer. As far as I remember, clusters don't really do a whole lot as far as filling GEs for engineers. | |
