UPDATE - Thought you might find this interesting… I did!

I am beginning to think that Erico Guizzo has a bit of a crush on Olin College! ;) I kid, I kid… but the IEEE Spectrum Associate Editor has written yet another glowing blog about Olin - this time, in response to the recent New York Times Magazine article.

So take a look. And yes, feel free to mock my shameless marketing of other people’s impressions of Olin.

P.S. Thanks to Ash ‘09 for giving me the heads up on Mr. Guizzo’s newest Tech Talk post!


Feelin’ the love,
Allison

My original post from 9/21/2007:

So thanks to my Google Alert, I stumbled upon this blog post from IEEE Spectrum Online. Yes, of course, Olin is mentioned! But - more importantly - it touches on how some schools have taken note of the high dropout rates in engineering programs across the nation and are making an effort to shift away from the “boot-camp model of engineering education” and toward “experimental courses” that incorporate “new education models.”

Check it out! And have a good weekend.

Allison
