And a prospective engineer too.  Cool.

When you consider Jan Pajerski and how he had to leave the team senior year for schoolwork, maybe not. :-/   It WOULD be cool if there weren't that caveat.

Wasn't  last year's team about 40% Engineering, 40% Hotel, 20% AEM & other?

[gbr]

definitly not...id guess 70% aem, 25% hotel, and 5% other....

But there are the Dave Burkes and Ryan Hugheses who can cut it, too.  Just tell him to go ORIE...

No. According to the media guide:

26 total
11 aem 42%
6 Hotel  20.6%
3 undecided (2 arts, one ag) 11.5%
3 econ 11.5%
1 PAM 3.8%
1 bio/society 3.8%
1 hbhs 3.8%

Wow...I must have been thinking of the Minnesota guide. ::help::

Anyone with too much time on his hands want to go through old programs or media guides to see what the distribution of colleges has been over time?  Just wondering whether it has changed at all.  There seem to be fewer engineers than when I was an undergrad, but then I may just be remembering particular examples like Burke and Hughes (who were in my dept.)  I've only got programs from 94-98 or 99, so I can't do anything comprehensive..

I remember one engineer during my four years, but I'd have to dig out some programs to remember who.  I also don't remember to many hotelies.  That was a more common major on the football team, not the hockey team.  Usually the hockey players were Ag. Ec. majors, which basically was the only undergraduate business major at the time.

Andrew McNiven was in the engineering school, ORIE I think.

[KeithK]

You're right about McNiven, but does ORIE really count?  :-P

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

My senior year roommate was an ORIE.  He said it stood for one of two things:

- Outdoor Recreation and Imaginary Engineering
- Oh Really?  It's Easy.

They got rid of the PAM major in 1998, didn't they?
