Re: Where are you going for colleges?
RPI is an excellent school with great programs in many areas of study and is particularly known for its engineering education. RPI is more well-known in the northeast, but does have strong national recognition. I don't know how much stock you put into US News and similar ranking publications, but RP...

Re: New York 2011
It's time again - West Point weekend! Congrats to all who have made it. It's a weekend of nerdy bliss and great competition. Remember that while you are trying to do well and get medals, this is also (at most) a 3 or 4 time thing that you'll never have again. Take it all in and enjoy the moment. Be ...

Re: New York 2010
As a three-time state competitor in Division C, I never made it past West Point and got to Nationals. But you know what? I'm really okay with that. Besides the "blah blah blah spirit of Science Olympiad" thing, I think it's also a spirit of competition that needs to kick in. So another tea...

Re: Baseball
And the Phils still lead the division. To be fair, I would be worried as a Phillies fan. To go this long without any offensive output (much less decent scoring) would be very troubling. What else are the Phils built to do? They outscore people and have pitching that can keep the game in reach. This...

Re: Season 2011 - Site suggestions
As per the event thread organization, I have two overarching thoughts. The first one seems more reasonable, and the second is actually a sort of reflection. First : What about giving each event a sub-forum and keeping that organized alphabetically? I realize that few events demand that kind of addit...

Re: New York 2010
A slightly belated congrats to all four NY teams at Nationals! The teams all ended in the top 15!
Thanks to all four teams, representing NY marvelously and showing what a great SciOly state this is for both B and C division.

Re: Baseball
I realize I am a bit late on this, but I am very pleased to see the Mets turn it around slightly by winning the series vs the Yanks. Now they're putting up decent offensive numbers in almost every game. I guess it was a bit too early to forget about the (morally) superior NY team. Things can only im...

Re: Is Science Olympiad worth it?
Science Olympiad is worth every moment, every hour, every setback and every devastating moment of disgust. That all sounds pretty bleak, doesn't it? I can't say that my days in S.O. were without blemish, even though I tend to remember them fondly. I remember that robot and how it owned my life while...
