  1. As I sit in my office, down the hall an instructor is lecturing at a too-high-voice-volume in a small classroom about ethanol production.

    Doesn’t anyone at the university, like, study fracking, oil sands, the construction of pipelines from Canada, legal procedures for thwarting the Environmentalists? Who has this necessary skills “out in the real world” when we don’t teach them at the U.

    Even the ECE (Electrical and Computer Engineering) program is into all of this touchy-feely “smart grid” (i.e., rip off retail customers with exhorbitant rates), and gosh forbid, “wind power.”

    OK, one exception, our NEEP program (Nuclear Engineering and Engineering Physics) is unabashedly pro nuke and anti Luddite.

    1. Well, don’t you have a mining engineering program? That’s where I’d look. They tend to be pretty hardcore.

  2. Out of curiosity, what do people think of this “Americorps” thing? It’s apparently processed half a million people over the last twenty years. I find it interesting that it’s used here for K-12 propaganda.
