<p>Like Ivy league schools. I want that a lot. Probably the major thing I will be doing for fun and probably debating.</p>
<p>I imagine if you go to school near a city of any significant size you'd be able to find a gym with little problem. How important to you is it to have the program be university-affiliated?</p>
<p>Iuno it just seem kinda cool. But yeah, you make a good point about that gym thing.</p>
<p>If you really care that much about martial arts just go to KyotoU or UTokyo you'll find great martial arts programs (of most popular styles) there.</p>
<p>MIT has TONS of martial arts clubs. Seriously. Looking at the Club Sports page, 11 out of the 31 listed club sports are martial arts, and I can think of at least one martial arts club that's not listed there. It is just a huge thing in the community.</p>
<p>I'm in the American Jiu-Jitsu club (though currently taking a break from it), and our head sensei just recently tested (successfully) for 3rd degree black belt in New York City. He's a recent recipient of his PhD in electrical engineering from MIT, and started jiu-jitsu as a freshman at MIT.</p>
