It's just a known fact at this point.

Why WPI Is Better Than MIT
WPI

Being the two technological universities in the state of Massachusetts already forms a rivalry but freshmen year I was told that WPI is the school for those who were denied to MIT. This means war.

1. WPI's mascot is a goat, which is much cooler than MIT's beaver.

2. WPI is smaller population wise than MIT, meaning a tighter knit community.

3. WPI has traditions MIT doesn't have like freshmen beanies and the Freshmen Sophomore rope pull.

4. WPI's President is the Queen of Twitter and selfies! Did I mention female power?!

5. WPI's project curriculums make us second to none to any school, really.

6. While WPI is in a smaller city, the roads are easier to navigate and there is still tons to do. I'm talking to you, Cambridge.

7. WPI has a small campus, in comparison to MIT, which makes getting to class a quick walk.

8. WPI has a better football team.

9. WPI's students are able to rock seven week terms, unlike MIT with their semesters.

10. And while both WPI and MIT have the best majors on the planet, WPI students just know they're better.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
