At Michigan, some of our house chefs like to show off their cheese & cracker or fruit arrangements and desserts during recruitment. Yummy, and honestly you probably burn off small portions running house to house across campus between sets if you’re a PNM, and you definitely burn it off jumping and singing as a sister :]
If engineering or business being a “traditionally male field” keeps someone from trying… then I’m sorry to say it, but we’re better off without them.
Honestly I love being a woman in a previously male field, some of older men are slightly intimidated by it, I get along fine with the guys my age, and having better social and communication skills means I am more likely to get promotions. My manager is also a wife and mother, as are our program manager and our engineering director, and I’ve been stockpiling their good advice on both their careers and their families.
It’s a personal choice, maybe she just likes the ER environment and wants to start work ASAP, as opposed to med school for half her life. I have 2 registered nurse practitioners and a NYFD EMT in my family, so I have deep respect for the profession.
Also, I’m an aerospace engineer, but there are plenty of guys who are nurses, teachers (in fact, I know a fraternity man who is now a high school English teacher after serving in the USMC in Iraq and Afghanistan), accountants, etc and I doubt most of them would brag about it on TFM because y’all are so obsessed with one-upping each other. Also, I feel like half those engineers need a reality check, it is rare for an engineer to become very wealthy without holding a world-changing patent, investing really well (like my grandfather), or running a successful firm.
My sister was the same way, until I reminded her it wasn’t my fault she decided to go to a school with no greek life 🙁 Luckily, I have another little sister who actually wants to use her legacy status!
I’m an engineer myself, as are my father and grandfather, and honestly unless you have a successful business of your own or you’re in management, financial or petroleum engineering, you won’t have a huge salary. You can definitely do well for yourself while you’re single and if you invest well, but its not like you’d be picking up trophy wives or making it rain every weekend. The engineers I work with at a Big 3 defense contractor are definitely middle to upper-middle class with working spouses and most of them send their kids to public schools. My boyfriend, on the other hand, is a business major making more hourly as an intern than the average starting engineer and he’s looking at a six-figure starting salary.
Long story short: If you’re golddigging for big money, don’t be surprised when your engineer doesn’t bring home enough for you.
About that “Yacht” picture.
At UM, there is a local sorority called “Phi Rho Alpha,” and judging from the username, one of those reject geeds/formal rush dropouts posted that. She should have her right to attempt a TSM revoked.
Bless your heart, don’t you know this is the TSM wall, where everyone is totes perf and classy at every moment of their lives??
(and yes, that was totes sarcasm :] )
No one spray tans at Michigan, I’m assuming this is a poor MSU tramp.
Only 90? I guess that’s a lot in Utah…
I think you mean tractor, and I’m really not sure why.

Samesies! If you go to Nebraska, welcome to the Big Ten!

Super classy, like peeing on toilet seats.

And if you were trying to reply to me, I think you just made my point. 85k is not what a golddigger is looking for. Keep trying.
This is why we “accidentally” puke on you while deepthroating.

Unfortunately, they were 2 that look kind of desparate next to each other…
