    Re: Tech Expansion

    The problem when I graduated was that almost all of the jobs for chemical engineers were around New Orleans/Baton Rouge or Lake Charles unless you wanted to work in the stinking paper mills. I did...

    I agree whole heartedly with you about the doctoral degrees, Dawg06. Georgia Tech doen't have medical or law schools (Texas Tech does but it's way up there in the panhandle by itself and they...
