Campus


And lastly, the view of campus from across the lake on top of Mt Ripley (the ski hill).

DUhhhhhh


Sky in his first class (sort of). It was a class on what to expect in class. Sky is the one in the brown packers stocking cap. His dorm roomie is sitting to his right.

SNOWWWWWWW!


This is the ski hill across the lake. The university owns it, so all the students learn to ski!

COLLIDGE!!!


yes, it's purposely misspelled, for edjumacational porposes. Just completed a campus visit to what is nearly Alaska, in Houghton MI. For those of you who aren't familiar with the UP, it's on the long finger at the very top of Michigan, about 200 miles north of Green Bay. We got a lot of info, saw the town., and I was impressed with the school and especially the mechanical engineering department. They strongly stress being able to get a USEFUL education, with a lot of hands on labs to test theoretical stuff. They are also working hard to get engineers to enter the job market with a reasonable level of communications skill. 95% of their grads get good jobs with major companies. I bet the other 5% just aren't trying! anyway, here's a bunch of pics from the trip. by the way, they also get a little snow. the snow-o-meter in the travelodge indicated they were only up to 225 inches, but it was a really off year. This is the building that houses Sky's chosen major.
