So, because it is just about time for everyone to leave for university or college, please post what school you will be attending, and where it is. Hopefully this will help some of us make friends with some skiers at school.

I am going to University of Guelph in Guelph Ontario.

Lotta people headed to MSU...
Well, I just got here a couple days ago, this is my first day without my parental units and no one's moved in yet, so... it kinda sucks so far, but Wednesday's move-in day so it should be fun.

What dorms y'all in, I'm in Roskie, second floor, and unless you're coming on the 23rd or later, probably still by myself, so... come on in, you're welcome.

I was just up on campus the other day, you must have missed me...... Anyways, you should check the sale board in the strand union building because I'm putting ski stuff up for sale the beginning of september. 1080 boots, icon boots, and some 185 pocket rockets with 30 days on them.

I'm actually taking the year off right now. Biking and skiing sound better than school for the time being. But I'll probably be at MSU next year.

hey man, I am kind of in the same boat as you. I moved out from Michigan, and just got permission to move in early, so I started getting stuff figured out today. I am sleeping in my parents hotel room tonight because my dorm is pretty much empty and my roommate hasn't come down from glaciar raft guides (his summer job) yet. probably will sleep there tommorrow, my damn one card isn't working as of tonight. Are you a freshman? Everything around here is pretty foreign to me right now. Are you a freshman? Major? I am in Mullan basement floor, do to some "issues" my roommate had in highschool. not my first choice but what the hell.

Aye, I'm a freshman. Don't have a major, I'm just going undeclared... I started with a Computer Engineering major but then realized senior year I'm not as good at math as I thought I was, so... I guess I'll just see what happens. Send me a message and maybe we can meet up somewhere, I have a whole day of nothing to get through before my roommate/the entire campus gets here, so I'd be psyched to talk to someone.

No, for the last fucking time. Most schools 30 years ago were not single sex. And no, the best schools are not single sex. And no, the best schools 30 years ago were not single sex. There are the 7 sisters schools, and a small handful of all male schools in the country. I'm not saying HS isn't a good school, but stop trying to back up your school with false statements.

Here are the rankings of the top 500 universities in the world. This is simply the least biased, best executed and most widely accepted study in existence. The only real criticism of it is that it focusses a bit more on the sciences than perhaps it should... but it's quite reliable. Here you go:

Not to bash my own school here, but honestly- in that ranking CU was 34. It is hard to believe that CU ranks higher than Rice, USC, and Vanderbilt just to name a few.

I must say though, I am honored to go to the #34 school in the world.
