@jacquio - It sounds like you know quite a lot about engineering education - I'd love to hear more (although it's a little depressing if what you said is accurate).
@diane - thanks for sharing that story. I can't help but think that something like the GI bill - with that scope and scale - would be impossible in today's climate. I know there are proposals that purport to be like a GI bill, but I don't think they come close to matching the ambitious goals and implementation of the original.
@lori - I was surprised as well that RPI didn't require a second language, but I wonder how many students take one anyway? And I agree, often it's not really learning the language that's important, but the history and the culture of the countries where it's spoken.
