Exactly. I'm a bsME from MSU -- and worked on Challenge X the whole time I was there. People can argue "theory" and "prestige" of engineering schools all they want, and I will laugh at it.

When you put MSU grads in a real world engineering application designing the future of automobiles, we can(and did) kick arse and take names with the best of them. IDGAF how good Ohio St, Penn St, etc are in theoreticals and formulas on a piece of paper -- because when it came to creating those things in reality, we kicked the crap out of them -- and MSU is probably about to do that again with Ecocar2(although I haven't looked at the results or the teams competing in that one).

I'll leave it at this: I got into a prestigious graduate school and have had incredible work opportunities. I don't feel my Ole Miss degree hindered me in this regard. I also don't feel like my opportunities would have magically been that much better had I gone to school somewhere else. Different, maybe, but not "better" in any sense.

So measure your dicks all you want. I went to school for free and parlayed that into a great graduate program and career. Enjoy your student loan debt to a school that looks like a shitty sci-fi movie set located in fricking College Station.
