Need some statistics. After every suicide, the campus administration always mentions in the Tech that MIT's suicide rate is not actually particularly high among colleges. One factor to consider is that because MIT is small and relatively tight knit, the administration and the medical department intervenes *very* quickly and efficiently in response to students who are in danger of suicide. (They are very quickly sent off to Maclean's).
I do not think the name "Boston Tech" ever had any official status, since I have seen copies of founding documents on MIT's web site saying the official name has never changed. (The original MIT campus was in Boston where Copley Square is now; it moved across the river to Cambridge in 1916. So the name "Boston Tech" was appropriate if unofficial.) -- Mike Hardy
And now I've confirmed it: See <http://libraries.mit.edu/archives/mithistory/charter#incorporate>. MIT was always MIT, never "Boston Tech", even if the latter phrase has some colloquial currency. -- Mike Hardy
I have deleted the unjust "parking garage" simile. The old building that not-quite-surrounds Killian Court has great charm, and from my Neutral Point of View, I hereby sentence the author of the "parking garage" simile to Cruel and Unusual Punishment. Michael Hardy 21:44 Feb 10, 2003 (UTC)
I notice "Muses" points to the a greek mythology thing, not a group.. —User:Mulad
