<p>hum, from your username i kept picturing russell peters, the comedian.</p>
<p>Picture whoring time?</p>
<p>Here's me, the Homecoming King:</p>
<p>Yay for perpetuating stereotypes and judging people entirely by their appearance! </p>
<p>I'm a hot male engineer, by the way. Unbelievably hot. I'm going to conveniently forget to add a link to a picturue, but you should trust me anyways.</p>
<p>Some people really do stink though. This one guy next to me stank so bad that when the pipe overhead started leaking by me I took my opportunity and pretend I pansied out because of the pipe but it was really the obese smelly monster next to me. There are many times where I don't shower and don't even come close to smelling that bad. I don't know how people manage it.</p>
<p>ewwwwwwwwwww illini doesnt shower eeeeeeeeewwwwwwww</p>
<p>aww the boy in the homecoming thingy looks cute.</p>
<p>I guess some engineering males stand out from that stereotype..</p>
<p><em>pops ?cyclohexane's? collar</em>
- keep it up bro =P</p>

<p>I second that: dmurphyiv is one hot mofo. </p>
<p>By the way, I was going for "glucose" but you can call me "cyclohexane" if you really really want to, I guess ...</p>
<p>which majors in engineering have the hottest guys?</p>
<p>Probably mechanical, chemical, and civil. EngPhys, electrical, and computer seem nerdier to me. Although this is merely speculation.</p>
<p>I'd say biomedical, because that's where I'll be. </p>
<p>I like how we correlate nerdiness with attractiveness, like they're inversely proportional or something.</p>

That's because this is the way it works most of the time. Bare in mind that nerdiness has nothing to do with intelligence.</p>
<p>I'm in EE and I have to say, most of the guys would probably fit my idea of the stereotypical engineering "nerd" but given that, there still are some that are pretty good looking. But then again, we have a huge ECE department, it would be pretty sad to have NO good looking boys at all in such a huge engineering school. They're hard to find and get but I think it's definately worth it to find a guy in engineering ;) looks, intelligence, and ambition... or so I hope</p>
<p>Here's what Scott Adams, creator of Dilbert, had to say about this very subject:</p>
<p>** *</p>
<p>Gene Fool</p>
<p>Society depends on the unattractive to become titans and engineers. Science will threaten the supply
By SCOTT ADAMS </p>
<p>Among the biggest threats to the future of corporate America are genetically engineered babies. They'll look cute and harmless at first, with their tiny noses and symmetrical faces. Only later will the horror reveal itself, when the generation of perfect-looking people enters the work force with no marketable skills whatsoever. Can corporations survive without engineers, economists, programmers, scientists and other skilled labor? Where will the future Fords and Sarnoffs and Jobs come from? </p>
<p>Admit it: you've wondered why beautiful people rarely have any state-of-the-art skills. Are they born dumb, or does something happen to them during childhood? (Unless you're beautiful yourself, you've had those thoughts, so stop rolling your eyes and making that "phhht" sound.) </p>
<p>Fortunately, it hasn't mattered that beautiful people have no useful skills. There aren't enough beautiful people to damage the economy. But that situation will change, probably in your lifetime, thanks to genetic engineering. Future generations will be tall and attractive, with perfect teeth, 20/20 vision and hair that never thins. If history is our guide, these beautiful people will not be capable of operating devices created by advanced technology such as doorknobs and can openers. It will mean trouble for corporate America. It will be even worse for cats. </p>
<p>I think beautiful people are born with normal intelligence. But they quickly realize they don't need to fill their brains with unpleasant concepts such as nonlinear geometry and fluid dynamics. Beautiful people know they will never be asked to build a communications satellite or invent a vaccine. They know they can get all the money they need by charging ugly people to look at them. This commerce takes many forms, including marriage, television and Cosmopolitan magazine. </p>
<p>My theory is that people become only as knowledgeable as they need to be, based on how ugly they are. I have no proof of this, but I can tell you that when I was four years old, I scanned my relatives and realized I would grow up to be a short, bald, shy guy with glasses. This eliminated any hope of an easy career in marketing, politics, modeling or acting as host of Hollywood Squares. People who look like me need skills. Lots of them. </p>
<p>As I tracked the spread of my uncle's baldness a predictor of my own hairline I studied harder and harder to compensate. My uncle eventually got so bald that I became valedictorian. I'm fairly certain that millions of other bespectacled, height-challenged introverts found academic excellence the same way. </p>
<p>The unpleasant truth is that corporate America depends on a steady supply of ugly people like me, people who know they won't survive by their looks alone. The cruel irony is that genetic engineers themselves products of this smartening process are threatening to dry up our wellspring of scientists and technologists and the people who draw cartoons about them. * **</p>
<p>HAHAHAHA. </p>

<p>Good looking boys in a given year of an engineering program
= lim(year->infinity) student population^(1/year)</p>
<p>At least you'll always have a minimum of one good looking guy.</p>
