Needed: MIT Graduates
« on: September 04, 2012, 07:43:03 AM »
I have kind of a bizarre, off-the-wall question that I promise is relevant, and I'll share with you why tomorrow--er, later today I guess.

Are any of our heroes by chance MIT graduates?  Especially post-graduate degreed individuals?  If so, please e-mail me at tonyv@cohtitan.com, I have a special task I need your help with.  Ask around in your supergroups and circle of friends.

Would you be interested in off-america, but similar, schools ?

I would be able to give some insight of those in France, as I've graduated from of the (big but not top) elite schools (entering 2nd year Ph.D. right now)

Like Bison, I'm wondering if you specifically want MIT schooled individuals.

I'm a Brit and not MIT educated, but with a PhD and postdoctoral work at the Cavendish Lab Cambridge Uni my scholarly credentials aren't too shabby. I'm happy to help in any way I can.

I would not qualify under any standards, but I am curious as to what this may be...reverse-engineering, perhaps?

Or maybe to have some prestige, or stage something from inside the school. Students are known for their egregrious amount of free time =)

I know a few people currently pursuing undergrad degrees at prestigious schools, one of whom is a very close friend (like since I was 8).  Not sure if that's any help whatsoever, but lemme know.

I'm guessing it's to get in touch with someone particular at MIT, perhaps in the alumni association? ;D
Have you played with a KiTTY today?

Heh, nope, this has absolutely nothing to do with your quality of education, it's just that I found a link between NCsoft and MIT, and I'm hoping that hearing from our MIT alumni will help establish a rapport.

Sneaky and genius. I love it.
Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction.

Hey all, I still want to follow through with this, but I'm going to unsticky the topic for now.  I'll give you more details a little later, but I want a few other things to happen first.  I'll e-mail or PM you guys...
