in thread Where is your school?

But if you live on the far West coast, it's most likely not the best choice.

Oddly enough I live on the far east coast, about 40 minutes from the Atlantic. I, unlike many people I know, have no problem with moving to the other side of the country, even if it is just for two years of college.

    You are braver then I. I could've gone to Georgia Tech or Virginia Tech, but I opted for a closer location (I'm from Colorado). Possibly a foolish mistake that will haunt me throughout life, but it hasn't bothered me yet. I figure if I continue to get nice internships (such as the one I have at Qwest this summer) they will look nearly as good on a resume as having a degree from a finer institution.

    As for coming from the coast, I do have one friend from Maryland that's at UNL. He seems to like it. Only problem is you can only get to the coast on maybe two or three of the vacations we get (Spring Break, Winter Break,...)
