<p>as the poet said, ‘people are strange’.</p>
<p>back to the topic,</p>
<p>grinnell is academically rigorous. UIUC college of engineering is (considered) academically rigorous (is it really or is this just a myth, I wonder?); </p>
<p>how rigorous are the academics in the rest of the school LAS) and how engaged are the students in the non engineering world?</p>
<p>at the end of the day, both are higher ed institutions engaged in pursuing a bachelors degree.</p>
<p>Would a ‘nerd’ feel comfortable at UIUC? Or wd it be like ‘Carrie’ for 4 years - or would that be 5 years? byopb. that’s ‘bring your own pig blood’ :)</p>

<p>What do mean about greek life having a heavy presence? toga parties every night? is there hazing - is that even done at all anymore ? </p>
<p>IF someone does not want to go greek is that person considerd GDI (‘godam$$ed independent’ - sounds angry)? I actually found this phrase on the ***** website in the UIUC section.</p>
<p>does greek life express itself in each college equally? what about the college of engineering, eg? </p>
<p>does greek life show up to different degrees in different dorms? what about greek life in newman hall? big presence , little presence, no presence?</p>
