Well, both schools are Midwestern and part of the Big 10… can’t see how they’d be too different. Greeks dominate the social scene here (it’s like 25% but it seems more than that). Lots of weekend (and weekday) drinking; lots of school pride. As for the electrical engineering part, I’ve only taken the beginning level class in that department. A good number of my TAs and undergrads were internationals from Asia. The facilities at Everitt are well kept, clean, hot-beds for interesting projects, and the university is even in the process of building a new building for the EE department. EE, along with CS and Civil, seems to be one of the most represented departments in the Engineering college. As a grad student, your experiences will be very different however.

What do you wanna know?
