I graduated in the 1980's. I enjoyed my years in Rolla. The academics were challenging, the culture was college town, the government was more relaxed about alcohol (a different era), the city was safe to walk around at night, the rivers were great for canoeing, and the national forest around rolla was a great place to explore and relax it. It would have been nice to have more women on campus but no place is perfect.

In my years since graduation I discovered how good my education really was in my work with other engineers. UMR taught me how to think, analyze and learn. I've worked with engineers from some of the best schools in the country and I can keep up with them. At this point in my career the book portion of my education is dated compared to more recent graduates, but put us in a room with a problem and I'm asking the right questions, quickly determining which data is useful, which data is noise and what additional data is needed to determine the cause of the problem.
