Tulane University to Reduce Engineering School

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the in-the-wake-of-disaster dept.

baldbobbo writes "According to University President Scott Cowen of Tulane University, the School of Engineering will be greatly reduced. I have to wonder, as a student who can graduate in May 2007 (the deadline for those students to still receive a degree in any of the cut majors) with a Computer Science degree, but wants to stay an extra year, should I transfer to another university, graduate on time, or switch majors?"

    That wouldn't have much to do with the article's submission then, though. After all, if he wants to get a degree in liberal arts or something after he gets his CS degree - and they're still going to teach liberal arts stuff - then what question is there to ask us in the first place?

    I think there's something missing in the overall statement. It's kind of like "My boss is kind of goofy and likes to eat meatball sandwhiches every day - should I drive my car to 3,000 miles before I tune it up or run it a little over?"
