Jamie:

I would love to hear more about this program. Throughout my life, I was very hesistant to pursue engineering. My grandfather is an engineer, and honestly, he is very socailly unaware of things. To a girl, that's kinda scary to think that you could turn into that. I've now realized that that's just my grandfather's personality. I totally agree that many people don't kno what engineers can do or what their real job is. After finally listening to some people telling me to look into engineering, I read some articles, and I am now excited to possibly major in engineering. With out knowing a lot of engineers though, I probably never would have welcomed the thought or even come across it.
